My carriage to Paris. Then on to Manchester.

It’s officially vacation time so it must be time to grill.

Aneika and I had a great trip to Chicago last week! We took an architecture cruise, took in some plays, ate at amazing restaurants, and took in awesome views almost everywhere we looked. On top of that, the weather was extremely cooperative. We really enjoyed the Windy City!

I was frustrated because I couldn’t find some work gloves I’ve had for almost 30 years.

I then noticed a pair of brand new gloves in the garage that were still in the packaging.

I have to admit I’m quite smitten with them.

So this is my family of tablet devices. I found the eReaders to have amazing battery life and minimal eye strain. However, I’m still learning how to insert them into my workflow.

While it’s updating, here are the two other devices I purchased with my eReader budget. The Onyx Boox Nova C and the Kindle Scribe.

I love the Nova C and use it daily.

I really regret getting the Kindle Scribe.

I quickly installed the Tab X in it’s case and went through the fairly standard setup screens. I connected to my home WiFi network and started downloading the latest update.
May 13, 2023 at 10:55 PM
The Tab X is has a 13.3 inch screen so it’s a large device. I put it next to my 12.9 inch iPad Pro for a size comparison.
May 13, 2023 at 10:46 PM
The packaging is pretty straightforward. The device ships with just two accessories: a stylus and a USB C cable.
May 13, 2023 at 10:42 PM
I opened the package to the pleasant surprise of a case included along with the tablet.

The company I work for has a Learning budget that allows buying devices in the eReader category. Several weeks ago, I put in an order for the Onyx Boox Tab X eInk tablet. It took a while since it was an international order, but it just arrived!

My area had grape sized hail about an hour ago. I ran out to try and cover my son’s car. Ouch.

I’ve used my iPad Pro as a laptop replacement for years, and I always looked forward to tablets becoming more powerful for that use case. However, I’ve recently taken to the idea of tablets as specialized devices: reading, note taking, sketching, etc. Maybe One Tablet to Rule Them All ain’t it?

Enjoying a relaxing Sunday afternoon.

Date night
April 30, 2023 at 3:52 AM
Getting my oldest sized and also looking for a senior prom outfit. His date is wearing red so we’re looking for a red suit.

I can’t make Day 3 of RailsConf tomorrow because I’m heading back to Houston tonight. However, Days 1 and 2 were really good, and I met up with some Hubbers on my way to the airport!
April 26, 2023 at 1:05 AM
RailsConf Day Two! Listening to Gary Ware’s opening keynote.
April 25, 2023 at 1:15 PM
It was great seeing you at RailsConf! Hubbers have to do it for the skyline.

I have an OBSBOT Tiny webcam which is attached to a gimbal making it easy to tilt and pan. However, it's not easy to pack so I've started using Continuity Camera to use my iPhone as a webcam for my MacBook Pro when I travel. It. is. SO. GOOD. I'm thinking of buying an iPhone just to use as a webcam.

My first RailsConf session: “Mentorship in Three Acts” by Adam Cuppy.
April 24, 2023 at 2:45 PM
I’m RailsConf official! I met Dr. Shawntia Key and Ally Vogel who are a couple of the amazing organizers.

My carriage for RailsConf: courtesy National’s Emerald Isle.

The first car I ever bought was a 1997 Passat, but I don’t think I’ve driven a Volkswagen in over a decade.

I prefer airports where you can walk to the rental car center, but the ATL SkyTrain isn’t bad at all.
