Harley-Davidson funded study proves motorcycling provides physical and mental benefits
Even though the study was funded by a motorcycle manufacturer which may throw its conclusions into question, I’d bet everyone who rides agrees with the study’s results. For me, I know that riding relaxes me while, at the same time, increases my focus. While it’s the most dangerous thing I do, it’s also one of the best things I do.
A lunar eclipse and a ‘super blood wolf moon’: how to watch this cosmic event
Ignoring all the silly qualifiers, this will be a pretty incredible event, especially for those of us on the West Coast of North America. Sadly for us here in the Vancouver area, the forecast is for rain Sunday evening.
Facebook’s ’10 Year Challenge’ is just a harmless meme—right?
We’ve mentioned often here how we give up way too much data voluntarily. Some of it, like this “challenge”, while seemingly innocent, may actually be sneaky and insidious.
Supraventricular Tachycardia: Or, a trip to the ER with my Apple Watch
We’ve heard a lot of these stories and we’ll hear a lot more. If nothing else, the Apple Watch is making many more people much more aware of the overall health and well being. I know it’s already helped me lose weight and I’ve only had it for a couple of weeks.

This is a great list for those of you who are looking for and can use alternative apps. There are a couple of apps I’m going to test out for color grading my drone footage.
Millions of customers will now pay more for Netflix—here’s how much
It will likely eventually affect customers in other countries as well. We are a Netflix family but, at what point will these increases stop us from paying for the service?
Feds can’t force you to unlock your iPhone with finger or face, judge rules
This feels like a ruling that might make its way to the US Supreme Court.
Apple buys 50 business class seats from San Francisco to Shanghai every day
I wonder why it wouldn’t be more cost effective to simply buy their own plane(s)? I’m sure they’ve already thought of that though.
The nightmare horror show that is the Apple TV remote
I hate the Apple TV remote as well. Anyone else have strong opinions about it one way or the other?
Meet the short-order cooks so good Waffle House officially calls them “Rockstars”
Even though I lived in the South for several years, I never actually set foot in a Waffle House. But, as a motorcyclist, I am a huge fan of diners and always appreciate the stories of a good short order cook.
VLC is adding AirPlay support and will reach 3 billion downloads
Since Apple has been ignoring QuickTime for years, VLC, along with the new IINA app, have been my go-to media players for all kinds of files.

As many are pointing out, this story is why you should be nice to your IT people.
Small car flips between giant rings
I love watching these kinds of videos. I have zero mechanical ability or imagination but I’m always fascinated by those who do.
For owners of Amazon’s ring security cameras, strangers may have been watching too
Consumers are far too ready to give up their privacy for security and companies are far too lax when it comes to protecting either. This is another data point for my contention that I will not allow these kinds of “security” devices in my home.
The 6 best iPhone apps for weight loss
I’m using a couple of these apps, along with an Apple Watch, to track my food and calorie intake along with exercise. I find it helpful to know how much food I’m eating and what the calorie amounts are. So far, I’m doing pretty good. I just need to exercise more.

There’s actually quite a few very interesting books that have just entered public domain status.
The enduring teen legacy of Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Monty Python and the Holy Grail was meme-worthy before that was even a word. I saw it when it first came out and I’ll still quote its silliness on a weekly basis.
What are bone conduction headphones?
This technology has been around for a lot of years but I’ve never used them. Many people who hate sticking earbuds into their ears may benefit from them though.
Aquaman visual effects, before & after
I love showing these visual effects reels to my 13-year-old. Blows his mind when he sees how much of it is “faked”.

Along with water, blood is the most important liquid in the world.
Apple to hold annual shareholders meeting on March 1st at Steve Jobs Theater
The questions from shareholders should be particularly heated this year.
The painful price of becoming Jackie Chan
I’ve always been a huge fan of Jackie Chan. Even when his movies were awful, you never took your eyes off of him during stunts and fight scenes.
Is it OK to toss an apple core or banana peel outside?
Interesting. While I don’t go for walks in the woods very often being a City Kid, I always assumed it was OK to toss organics into the woods “for the animals”. Looks like that might not be such a good idea after all.
Create and print your own perfectly-gridded paper
I so could have used this website in high school and college for my D&D games.
How to use an Instant Pot
I got one of these a few months ago and I love it. I make rice, steam/roast vegetables, sear meat, make stews and pot roasts, and even cheesecake in it.
