@ludolphus Following the ChimpNut update, I’m still getting the chopped-off icons at the top of the screen with my iPad (new 2020 model). No problems on the 2020 iPhone SE. It’s a minor irritation, tapping the new message button then closing the new message before entering text fixes the issue.…

@fortunebot Better a handful of dry dates and content therewith, than to own the Gate of Peacocks and be kicked in the eye by a broody camel.

Another excellent use for the 10.2-in iPad 8 is again using Sidecar, but this time with the displays mirrored.
I can use the Apple Pencil as a mouse, in effect using the iPad as a Mini Mac.

The iPad Mini is inadequate as an external display via Sidecar with my MacBook Pro as 7.9 inches is too small. But the new iPad 8 is 2.3 inches more on the diagonal & works well.

@Streakmachine Now down to 75% after 6 hours of screen time. Quite happy with that.

@Streakmachine The new iPad arrived yesterday. Just checked the battery usage: been 30 since coming off charge, down to 98% with just email & Safari.

New iPad arrived today, got it fully set up now. Old iPad erased & set up for trade-in. Get the Post Office to scan a QR code, then they supply the packaging & mailing label & send it back to the mob doing the trade-ins. Mine is worth A$230.

41 minutes ago this 5th gen iPad was at 100% battery. Now it’s 94%. All it’s been doing is internet/email. That seems like excessive battery drain to me. Apple tells me my replacement iPad 8th gen will arrive on Tuesday.

New Space Grey 8th gen 128 GB cellular iPad ordered, delivery expected on Tuesday next week. Current Gold 5th gen (also 128 GB cellular) will be returned for a A$230 trade-in.

@Kabuku Hibiscus & rosehip are a great combination for a herbal infusion. Another favourite is cranberry & pomegranate.

A particular brand of oat “milk” is half-price this week. Normally I don’t buy stuff like that but a friend reckoned it was good in coffee.
He’s wrong. It’s not good in coffee.

It’s great!

On his 70th birthday, a man was given a gift certificate from his wife. The certificate was for consultation with a well known therapist who was rumoured to have a simple cure for erectile dysfunction. The husband made an appointment and saw the therapist. He was given a potion and, with a serious look on his face, the quack said, "This is powerful medicine. You take only teaspoonful, and then say: ‘1-2-3.' When you do, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life, and you can perform for as long as you want." The man thanked the therapist, and as he walked away, he turned and asked: "How do I stop the medicine from working?" "Your partner must say ‘1-2-3-4,' he responded, "but when she does, the medicine will not work again until the next full moon." He was very eager to see if it worked so he went home, showered, shaved, took a spoonful of the medicine, and then invited his wife to join him in the bedroom. When she came in, he took off his clothes and said: "1-2-3" . Immediately, he was the manliest of men. His wife was also excited and began throwing off her clothes, and asked: "What was the 1-2-3 for ?" And that is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition, because we could end up with a dangling participle.…

Heading off in 13 hours for a visit to a urologist, who'll conduct a few more prosytate-related tests. Mine is slightly swollen, but it's no cause for concern as yet. Medication can fix it.
