Canadian ex-pat in North Carolina… Photographer, tech guy…
This whole Amazon proposal of showing tariffs costs on products and the immediate pushback from the Trump administration makes me wonder if Amazon thought that plan through and didn’t figure any pushback from Trump.

That was the most interesting half time show I have seen in a long time. Production visuals top notch … tight coherent show from end to end #superbowl #kendricklamar

I gave Tom Brady a full half to prove himself but he is out of his depth giving commentary on the Super Bowl. Nothing insightful, boiler plate stuff you would hear on a division II college game. But Fox is paying him millions so got to use him. #superbowl #foxsports

Tonight is the test for Wake Forest basketball as they take on the North Carolina team. Win this and they have made themselves legitimate for the various metrics to work their way to the tournament! #wakeforest #basketball #ncaabb

Could have Pat Macfee dress
a bit better when he interviewed Day and Freeman who were in coat and tie?

Tom Brady still makes me cringe as a commentator on the broadcasts.

Can the Detroit Lions make it just on offense alone if they keep shedding players on defense due to injury. #detroitlions #nfl

Gronk really looks out of place on the Fox pregame show. Nothing meaningful to contribute. It feels that someone is feeding him lines to say. When the others were all standing around chattering away, he receded into the background, looking down, shuffling his feet. #football

What value is Instagram for me? Long ago when their algorithms changed to focus on video producers, my engagement is virtually nonexistent. I make very few connections there and those I do come from facebook originally. The only value I get from it are from some photographers that post creative BTS

What value is Facebook for me? Many people I know have various social media profiles but most still have not made the move to Bluesky. So if I need to receive updates from them, I still need to go on Facebook.Family and friends from long ago are more likely to be on Facebook than anywhere else.

Since the election, like many others of my political persuasion, I took a step from political news and news in general. For months I was too immerse in all things political. I needed the break. But the time has come to re engage, look at things with a fresh perspective and start putting things right

Post holiday work always feels the hardest to get started after a long layoff. Most often you did not go anywhere so you don’t really feel refreshed. A few highs punctuating a long period of nothing .

So is the text limitation for Bluesky posts is to enforce economy of text? To make it like Twitter? Technically there is no reason while posts are limited to 250 characters.

As per usual, the college football playoff game getting all of the attention was the Oregon-Ohio State game at the Rose Bowl. Becoming a blowout with Ohio State up 34-0.Third string announcing team to the Peach Bowl where they had the privilege of calling a classic between Arizona State and Texas

Blue Sky on iPad OS needs to fix the UX. Opening a link causes the screen to expand out and when he contracts, the viewing area does not fill the vertical space. Have to reset the app to reset the screen. Annoying issue.

One of the great questions starting Jan 21 is how will Elon and Donald communicate?

Trump is all phone. Nothing in writing.

Elon isn't going to take 10+ calls a day.

I wouldn't be surprised if more than half their communications are via posts on Truth Social and X

Literally.
