iPhone 14 Pro users complain of major drops in battery health and capacity after less than a year
  • Release day 14 Pro at 89% here. Oof. I hadn’t looked at that in a long while but had noticed a number of times that my battery was surprisingly low.

    Pretty heavy use, no wireless charging usually leave it plugged in over night.

  • People who back into parking spots: Why?
  • Yep I’m all about setting myself up for success. And backing into parking spaces does that. Also it’s drilled into my head from the oilfield that you will always back in because it’s safer.

  • Taylor Swift Gives Bonuses Totaling Over $55 Million to Every Person Working on Massive Eras Tour
  • Yeah you’re on it.

    When Taylor Swift sells the remaining 170,000 tickets for her 52-date Eras tour later this month, the U.S. trek will have generated $591 million in sales, Billboard estimates. The average ticket price is $215, according to concert business sources.

    And that’s just for the 52 US tour shows. Then it will be 131 shows for the US + world tour?

    So yeah it should be over $1B in total tickets. Wow

  • Nice solve! 35:xx here which is also faster than my average for a Friday. It took coming back to for me, I kinda stalled out with 50% of the puzzle done but when I came back I got a couple of the big clues sorted and then it fell into place.

  • Did anyone else do the Wordle and the Xword today?

    spoiler

    I wonder if it has happened before that the wordle answer is also an answer in the crossword? This was my first time noticing it.

  • 0:49 and I blame McDonald’s: as soon as I saw the clue for 5A referencing a “grimacing face emoji” my mind went to Grimace shakes and shit, and my rhythm was busted. Damnit mcd hah. And then 6A is also hard to solve without any crosses, another trap that slowed me down.

  • Ok back at it. We had company staying with us so I kinda took Friday and Saturday off from xwords and then did the Sunday late last night. Here’s hoping to kick off another complete week!

  • That’s kinda cool, I’ve never watched someone else narrating their solve, I checked it out for a few mins and it’s interesting to see and hear someone else’s methodology and thought process.
