  • Growing up

    I have been an iPhone user since the iPhone 4. Ever since I have been engulfed in the Apple ecosystem and its tech-fan-culture. I have upgraded to the latest iPhone every single year ever since. Like I always felt compelled to do so, like it was my duty as a nerd.

    In the last few years, the urge to upgrade every year has gone down a bit. Thinking back, it was always about FOMO, and not because the upgrade to the device itself, bright any substantial benefits. It was about me having the same toys the podcasters I was listening to had, for example. The same toy my friends in my nerdy-chat had.

    By not having their latest and greatest, I wasn’t honoring my nerd badge.

    On September 13th, 2019, Rene Ritchie tweeted (or at least that’s the day its on my DayOne entry)

    Never let anyone, certainly not the internet, shame you about your technology choices. If you get something cheaper to save money, or you get the most expensive, you’re still every bit as nerdy and savvy. No one else knows your business or gets to judge your choices. Do you.

    I still remember these words on every Apple event ever since.

    Yesterday, for me, was another Tuesday. Yes, I was aware of the event, but I did not watch it or made any efforts to. Of course, I peaked at the internet. And for the first time I can say with confidence — I’m good.

    I currently have an iPhone 12 mini, and this is probably my favorite iPhone since the iPhone 4s, followed by the iPhone XS. And I am good, if I see myself “upgrading” it would be to the iPhone 13 mini and I don’t feel like I need to do that now. At least not in the foreseeable future.

    I did like the new Apple Watch and the iPad Mini but, I am good for a while.

    Well, would you look at that? I am fucking growing up you all.

  • Keeping up

    Happy new iPhone day!

    Today there is another — like every year — Apple event, and a new shinny thing will be announced. Sigh! After a few years, it’s hard to care to even try to keep up. Like make sure I don’t miss it, I need to know what’s new. In recent years, I have seemed to care more about WWDC, I am not sure why. Perhaps is because it’s new software that’s will work with whatever device I have on hand as long as it’s somewhat recent.

    Anyway, I am sure I will hear and read all about it whether I want to or not…

    Stay classy, have a cookie, and enjoy.

  • Trade-in

    Earlier today, I had an impulsive idea. Well, I did it. I went to a local vidjia games store and did the trade in. I was actually very surprised at how much in-store credit I got.

    If I had taken cash, it would have been about $200.00 less. As expected, they didn’t have a PlayStation 5 in-stock, but they did say they would hunt one down for me. I have no hurry, it’ll take whatever it will. Now, it’s just a matter of waiting.

  • An impulsive plan

    I’m doing something out of sheer impulsiveness. I am currently resetting both of my main gaming consoles, my PlayStation 4 and Xbox One S. The plan, is to take these two along with _almost_every game I physically own on both of these, and some Nintendo Switch games to a local gaming store. The hope is to get enough credit to buy a PlayStation 5.

    Will I be able to pay in full with the treads-in? I doubt it, but still, it should be enough to down the cost of the new console. Will it be readily available? Also doubt it. I’m sure my options would be both get cash or in-store credit. I’m certain if I opt for credit, I might get more. Also, if I choose credit and a console is not immediately available, I would not mind to just keep the store credit until a console is available.

  • ENDER LILLIES

    I have spent the last week or so trying to defeat these two bosses. Las night, I committed, and bested them. Not before dying like ten times with each one first. And it was my my own dumb fault for not trying to use my assets and instead trying to fight head on.
