The character work in Star Trek Discovery is incredible. 🖖

PSA

If your Apple Watch had issues with GPS tracking and showing workout route maps after updating to iOS 14.0 and watchOS 7.0, before following the guidance in Apple’s support article, try unpairing and then re-pairing phone and watch. Worked for me.

Es ist wirklich lächerlich, dass der Link zum Impressum einer Organisation oder Firma fast immer erst dann erreichbar ist, wenn das DS-GVO-Cookie-Banner weggeklickt wurde. Darf nicht sein.

Margaret Sullivan of the WaPo perfectly summarising the mainstream media’s culpability in the evils that Trump and his ilk perpetrate:

The defining media story of this era is mainstream journalism’s refusal to deny Trump a giant megaphone whenever he holds out his hand.

Ich finde es immer wieder amüsant, wie fortschritts-, innovations- und technologiefeindlich neoliberale, quasi wirtschaftsfreundliche Populisten doch sind. Immer schön sicherstellen, dass der eigene Klüngel sich nicht am Markt behaupten muss und auf unsere Kosten geschützt wird.

Since Stephen Colbert and his team moved back into the Ed Sullivan Theater, I’m enjoying the monologues even more, because every now and then you can hear some of the crew cracking up at a particularly salty joke.

Well that’s interesting: the Zeiss ZX1 camera is not vapourware after all. The pre-order price is a hefty USD 6,000.— and for that it really needs to deliver. Looking forward to the reviews by Chris and Jordan of DPReview and Becca Farsace at the Verge.

Outdoor activity tracking with the Apple Watch is seriously b0rked. Ever since watchOS 7 was released, no GPS data is being recorded and I’m disappointed that Apple hasn’t yet fixed it with an update.

Obligatory post mentioning last night’s episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. This time on the “Election 2020”. Please, U.S. citizens, have a plan, go vote.

DS9 rewatch done. Now onto Discovery to have it freshly in memory when season 3 drops. 🖖
