  I often defuse like this by referring to my age. “My reflexes were great when I first started playing video games in the 1970s—now I am just slower and not much I can do about it.”

  I hate that they renamed it on iOS but not Mac. Now my fingers can’t remember just one thing.

  This work between certain states. For instance, you can drive into Oregon and shop with no sales tax then return to California or Washington with your goods.

  Liquor is also much cheaper in some states than others—you can really stock up if you are already driving through a state.

  The amount of bread we wasted before moving our bread to the freezer was crazy. Most of our bread gets toasted anyway, but the microwave handles the rest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do passkeys work across devices?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Depending on the site, you can use one device to login to another without installing additional software. For instance, if you have an iPhone with a passkey for microsoft.com stored on it, you can login to Microsoft.com using the iPhone.

  Here is a webpage that has some screenshots to show you what I mean. You can probably google some other examples.

  It is possible to sync passkeys across devices but at this point is mainly within a single ecosystem.
