A lot of photographers seem to like the Peak Design bags, that’s what led me to them. They don’t really have a water bottle solution but the quick access is definitely there and I like the organization setup a lot - very easy to customize. There wasn’t a price listed on the link you shared but I think the Peak Everday bag is about $260 USD.

Thank you for the heads up. Mine had already updated this morning. Not sure if you were able to get yours working but in case others are having problems the new update splash screen prompts you to select a subscription option. If you close that prompt it will ask to choose local/cloud storage and enter your master password. Once I did that all of my keys showed up.
Having said all of that I will be switching out of this app as soon as I find a replacement. Totally fine if developers want to generate revenue by adding features or services (I pay for plenty of great apps) but this is a clear attempt to generate revenue quickly. Even a simple splash screen warning users this was coming would have demonstrated some confidence in the new ownership, but they have traded any confidence for a quick dollar.
Edit: they have locked the zip export feature behind their paywall 🤬 I would rather spend all day manually moving codes than give these scammers a single dime
Nice! I preordered this live album:
I always try to do a purchase or two on BCF as well.
I think side loading is an important point. You can even side load apps on a Mac so Apple is going to have a difficult time arguing this one. It’s fine to not allow it by default and adding the extra steps to enable it.
I’ll admit I am torn on this. Before the iPhone really took off in the US the mobile carriers were in control. Does anyone remember having to pay for GPS and navigation and similar things through Verizon or whoever as add-ons? I do not miss those days, Apple (and Google) have done a lot to improve mobile experience since then.
I don’t use the platform so I’m not as familiar to if this is general nationalist issue or about specific practices in TikTok. I do think this is a slippery slope, though. Im afraid our elected officials are just too far behind on Technology to look at the broader issues on privacy and technology - this might pass simply because they can slap “not US = bad” on a campaign bus. It likely will boost VPN usage and/or drive people to less mature and even less privacy concerned services.
Finding it ironic that I’m literally not able to finish this article because it keeps plastering the page with ads.
I wouldn’t nominate either one for sainthood, no argument there. I walked away from Google because they are an ad company that makes devices and software - that has become increasingly more apparent in the last several years, I’m sure it was always true but less obvious in the early days.
It’s a very thin argument about it being buggy and/or users picking up their phones when that happens. There’s no way they have data to quantify that. I use voice commands exclusively and as others have said the only things I wrestle with are climate and non-integrated functions. It’s way safer to do AA or CarPlay in my experience.
It’s GMs bet to lose here. I would immediately pass on a vehicle without CarPlay. My old Toyota had a horrible interface and I was quoted $300 just to update the map, not even a new radio, literally just a software update. No thank you.
I’m a multi-year MOCA user, your use case seems appropriate. I actually have two sets of adapters in use in my home network in rooms with (inexplicably) only coax lines run. I’ve had great luck with mine, they are as fast as I need them to be for gaming, video etc. and have been extremely reliable.
I think your description makes sense on setup, I don’t have cable modem so I didn’t have that, but it should basically be:
- Ethernet from router to MOCA adapter A
- Coax connection from MOCA A to destination room
- Wall coax to a splitter - it should be MOCA compatible (assuming you need tv and internet) 3a. Coax from splitter to TV (assuming you need it) 3b. Coax from splitter to MOCA adapter B
- Ethernet from MOCA B to device. I actually got a small 4-port dumb switch as an Ethernet splitter just in case I wanted to plug in multiple devices.
I’d recommend getting MOCA working without the splitter first and then once you confirm, then add the splitter, it will be easier to troubleshoot if something is working. Good luck!
