Freshly Squeezed OpEd: And So It Begins
Now for the latest on my new layout. As usual, Apple under promised. I received both my iPhone 13 mini and iPad mini about a week ahead of schedule. Now I’m going through all the cruft I’ve collected on both devices over the years. It’s amazing how much stuff you can...
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Composing And Recording On-The-Go
Eons ago, I was a musician. Technically, musicians will point-out that whether you’re playing or not, you’re a musician for life. Coincidentally, all my years of musicianship help me in writing these reviews: the flow of a sentence by using specific words in a precise...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: The Siri Wars
Because of disability issues, it's easier for me to use my voice than to type. This means that I lean quite heavily and often on Siri.Though not the sharpest crayon out there, it'll do. Most of us have likely experienced the odd situation when someone says "Hey Siri'...
I Like iFi
Now that Apple has tossed its hat into the Lossless Audio ring, as I explained last month, you will require a new piece of hardware - a DAC (Digital to Analogue Converter)/headphone amp. This is irregardless if you’re using a mobile device or a desktop/laptop. The...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Stop it, Just Stop It
I watch a lot of YouTube. Actually, I watch way too much YouTube. I often use it for research purposes sometimes. Pathetic, eh? I’m sure you’ve seen a plethora of videos regarding “jellygate”. Apple didn’t create the problem, it’s a hardware limitation (though I see...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Watch Your Language
I’ve been writing reviews and OpEds for near two decades now and I’ve learned two important lessons. First, writing my sentences and articles is precisely like writing a song. I have to use my words and sentences to compose an ebb and flow that keeps the reader...
The Hills Are Alive With Lossless Music
Some people use music as aural wallpaper, like walking into a room and mindlessly turning on the TV. It keeps them company to simply chug along throughout their day. Others play music because it’s their favorite song(s). I wager any of us quickly turn up the car...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Hey, Remember Us?
The AppleWatch is an incredible device. It provides the nudge that most of us need to get off the sofa and exercise. Doesn’t matter if it’s walking, jogging, strength training, or what have you. It monitors your health (nothing like the feeling you’ve closed your...
Freshly Squeezed Reviews: Follow-up on Invisible Shield
It ’s been roughly two weeks since I applied my Invisible Shield from Zagg to my SE 2020. I can honestly say that its promise to reduce the blue light emitting from my screen, thereby straining my eyes, proved excellent. Seeing as my iPhone is the device I use the...
I Can See Clearly Now, The Pain Is Gone
iOS 14.4 iPhone SE 2020 It was last year when I did a review of light bias as it applies to computers, mobile devices, and TV use eyestrain. With computers (particularly desktops) the simplest way to resolve the situation was the use of a 5200k LED light strip...
Freshly Squeezed OpEd: Goodbye 2020, I’m Moving Forward
For me, this has been a wasted year. Forget COVID, personal issues, and health. I haven’t been pulling my weight. Technically, I had so many things breakdown or not perform correctly that I spent more time performing maintenance, looking for answers at Zen desks, and...
