The Aqara FP300 Presence Sensor is out! I've been testing for a few weeks. Didn't get a chance to make a video yet, but it's super fast to respond, Matter over Thread, and senses occupancy, light, motion, temp AND humidity. Affiliate link below:

Heard this thing runs Gemini now. If it doesn't recommend me at least 3 disaster movies when I ask, it failed

📺 I probably gave away too much in this video, but here's how I use ChatGPT to run my creator workflows! From YouTube help, to custom GPTs, and of course, how it all works with Shortcuts.

Apple Podcasts Subscriber Audio HAS CHAPTERS! IT'S HAPPENING!
November 4, 2025 at 7:51 PM
Saw this when logging into Apple Podcasts Connect just now, and full article from Apple here: podcasters.apple.com/support/5482...

Woah, more love for chapters in Apple Podcasts with iOS 26.2! Apple will automatically generate chapters for shows that don't provide them (creators can opt-out).

Plus, timed links to News, Music, Books, etc., will appear in the player!

Let's see if subscriber audio gets chapters with this update.

Sneaky great feature in macOS 26.1, you can now enable Clipboard History in Spotlight up to 7 days! Much better than the 8 hour limit.

Switched to tinted in iOS 26.1 and immediately yes
