Like Apollo 8 in that they are going to cislunar space, unlike Apollo 8 in that they are not going into lunar orbit. It's actually more similar to Apollo 13 minus the problem.

My mistake, I thought they were going to orbit the moon. Thanks for the correction.

yeah sooner or later we will think about dinner.. for lunch possibly something small

Instead of warming up, so far it is cooling off. Seventy one is the predicted high for today but it isn't looking all that favorable right now. It rained a third of an inch over night which we desperately needed. Rain is in the forecast for tomorrow. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

vivo have begun rolling out the March 2026 security patch to their global models of the X Fold3 Pro. Along with the patch are a few other optimisations, as detailed in the screenshot, below.

Now you'll be looking out for him on his new ride to come , LOL 😆

I hope so. I told him the loop I ride. Not that it is exciting but it is interesting for a few times. It definitely gets old but is the most safe ride around here. It's a good nine miles of mostly uninterrupted travel once you get to the loop. I could see he was taking mental notes.

I rode today after I finished my mowing. It was a bit cloudy and a bit cool. There was a possibility of rain but it certainly didn't look threatening. What the day really had going for it was the wind was barely blowing. I rode up the battery I rode with the last two days. Monday I was out of battery after 31 miles. Yesterday I was out of battery after 32 miles. Today, with low wind velocity, I was out of battery after 40 miles. Wind is a drag..... literally.

I had a lot of fun riding today. Today was first time I went riding, since my trip to California in early January, that didn't hurt my back. Using the string trimmer to trim and groom my lawns hurt my back as per usual. When I started to ride, I anticipated needing to make some stops to stretch to ease the back pain. I had no pain. It was wonderful! I had no company on my forty mile ride today.

I had trouble with my earbuds while mowing today. They disconnected from my phone two or three times while I was mowing my first lawn. It finally dawned on me that I had forgotten to turn off my truck. When I got near the truck my phone connected to my running truck which broke the connection to my buds. Obviously, I don't wear my hearing aids while mowing. I have to remember to turn the truck off because I can't hear if it's running without my aids.

I constructed things of wood most all of my life. I will admit that I was very ready to retire after over 55 years of making things. Now, like some bad dream, I build things in my sleep. Most every night I make something. Last night I woke up after building a make-up vanity with a light bridge between two storage cabinets with a set of tri fold mirrors between vanity top and light bridge. Dreams are weird

I'm so old that I came up behind a couple of kids holding hands. They were walk in front of the lawn I was going to mow next so I waited on them to get past the property so I could park. I sat in the truck thinking those kids must be jipping school. Just before they were out of my way, he turned to her and handed off an infant to the woman. They were children with child... my bad.

Back on topic: dark matter seems awfully elusive for something like "matter"... just sayin'

But I don't want to have to type it in. I want to ask it a question, which I do in a very quiet voice up to the microphone even in public and it reads that just fine. I don't then want it to start reading/squawking out the response in the loud intrusive way it does, making me have to poke at buttons to shut it up. I just can't find a simple option to stop it speaking at all.

turn down the volume.

Our new go to snack is celery sticks filled with home made pimento cheese. It was one of those "that looks good" Costco buys that was a hit. We bought a large tub of Palmetto brand Home Style Pimento Cheese with Jalapeno. In no time, we emptied the tub and needed more. Not having a desire to make another Costco run so soon, we resulted in making our own. Sharp cheddar, whipped cream cheese, finely diced jalapenos, a bit of mayo and a bit of garlic salt. I'm not claiming that it's better than the Palmetto brand sold by Costco but it isn't bad, easy to make, and handy. It's great filling for a stick of celery or a spread on crackers.

I just received the update. Any information of changes or patch we installed?

Nothing, other than the Samsung changelist in post#7.

There's always a way. I've gotten pretty creative with some of my installations.

Yes sometimes the panel ends up in a location that's not in line of sight while driving, but we really shouldn't be fiddling with it anyway. I have my dual-banders set on the repeaters I use and usually wouldn't need to adjust anything other than volume which I can do by feel.

There are panel mounts that attach to cupholders, CD slots, seat bolts and other places.

Don't give up this easily, I'm sure you can figure something out.
