August 27th 2026 Lunar Eclipse

I bought a nice DSLR that sits in my safe. I purchased it to take digital pics of images viewed with my telescope. I sold the scope when the last two kids left the nest and I last used the camera to take wedding pics when my son wed back in 2010. The best part about having a good camera on your phone is to catch opportunity pictures. I always have my phone with me. I don't walk around with a camera hanging from my neck.
Yeah you might look like you spend all that money on a lense though, over all I think, well I have a friend who is taking some photographic classes and some of his work is impressive, on his fb page, over all, I do not see him walking around with a giant camera around his neck... he always carry his cellphone around him..

Funny/Creative Video Clips

I can't apologize for the FB link, because the reel is far too excellent...

Heart Trauma Recovery

I went to my Dr. this morning to have blood taken for my cardi. He put me on a new drug and wanted two identical labs a month apart. I assume today's draw was to get a baseline. The amazing part of the visit was the resident expert at drawing blood pulled the blood with one poke. Makes me wonder why the stress test team gave up after multiple attempts by two different people.

Favorite breakfast?

I've taken to front-loading protein (with zero or minimal carbs) in the morning. This morning I air-fried some bacon and fried 5 farm eggs in butter. It was delightful. Later I used the pressure cooker lid on the air fryer to hard cook the last 14 eggs in the fridge: hopefully I can buy 2 or 3 dozen more this afternoon. I'm already within 4 grams of lean protein of hitting my daily goal (50% of lean weight in grams per day) and it's not even noon.

Sure, a nice waffle or stack of pancakes is awesome: but that should be very seldom.

Trouble with goo play

I loathe goo. I didn't say he does. He seems unaware of all the trouble goo can cause. Now at least he's getting a taste of the hell they are to deal with, and he has my sympathy, though unfortunately not my tech support. What can I do to help him? He doesn't understand this stuff at all and ain't gonna try. Is there some simple way, or perhaps a convoluted one, to force goo to accept the payment paid for with their own card?
Depending on he uses a gift card or a credit card, like i said I do not use google payment not too much, just the freebee stuff.

Sd card problem

No, I would never fall for that old trick. I briefly considered it years ago, but when I found out the truth...forget it. I checked both storage and fossify files. The former claims 0 and is suggesting that I format the card (no). The latter doesn't show it at all. Meanwhile I get a message that there is an "issue" with the card. By the way, the only tech guys I know are you.
Eh we are still in our prime.

Honor Magic V6 Fold (Global)-AUGUST 2026 update

Honor have released a security patch for their latest and greatest, fold phone the Magic V6 Global model.

This appears to be an interim update whilst the phone is currently undergoing beta testing of their MagicOS 11, (Android 17), firmware.

I reluctantly upgraded my 2 year old vivo X Fold3 Pro about a month ago as the Honor Magic V6, (Global), offers a bigger battery, (6660 mAh), battery with fast charging, (80W/66W wireless), and stylus support on both inner and outer screens with the latest Qualcomm SM8850-AC Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (3 nm) chip all at £1,499, (inc 20% tax), which is around £500 cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra in the U.K.

So far I am finding this a worthy successor to the vivo X Fold3 Pro which was outstanding enough for me to hold on to for 2 years as it was so far advanced.
