New ⚡ Hiro Report went out to subscribers last night and is up on the web for all to enjoy!

Come for the overengineered storage containers, stay for the Apple Intelligence-powered to-do list conqueror... and a whole bunch more nerdy #tech and gear recommendations.

Good lord, I want one of these...and I am wholly unequipped with the skills to use it—

Roland is releasing their first fully analog drum machine in over 40 years: The Roland TR-1000

I'm completely hopeless at color grading, but I have to say I'm loving playing around with Apple Log 2 on the iPhone 17 Pro.

Here's a little moment of Zen at Ecola State Park on the Oregon coast.

Not to be overly dramatic, but this is your LAST CHANCE to enter the drawing for a free digital copy of Link's Awakening for the Nintendo Switch!

It's open to all free subscribers of the Hiro Report, and you just need to sign-up via the link in last week's issue: www.hiro.report/10aug2025-on...

I'm a sucker for a good skill toy. Just got this Kendama I ordered last week and that I featured in this week's Hiro Report. The bad news is I'm not an immediate natural at it, the good news is I've not (yet) given myself a black eye with it.

It's not my fault: I'm a sucker for a blind box.

Love my Big Idea Design Bolt Action Pen, but at $100, it’s steep. Now they offer a new version with the same charm at half the price! It only takes Parker-style refills, but that’s fine by me.

Check it out + more fun tech, gear, and apps in last night's Report:

The fact that La Marzocco did not name this new limited release Linea Micra the Wes Anderson edition is an utter disappointment.

I want it all the same.

(It would pair so nicely with my imaginary Leica M11-P Safari.)

I think it's time we all normalize playing SNK vs Capcom on a retro handheld rather than doomscrolling Instagram in between sets at the gym

Great fun to chat with Phil McKnight, head of @baratza and @lelit_official, about the new Baratza Encore ESP Pro grinder. Full story coming soon, but @coffeegeek already has all the details on the innovative grinder on the home page. #SCAExpo

Really exciting to see what the gang at @flairespressomaker are building to make excellent espresso available to everyone both at home and on the road. I've got a review unit of their Flex that I'm putting through its paces. Story and review coming to @coffeegeek soon.
