Overthinker with a soft heart. I post what's actually on my mind, not what's supposed to be. Just a person trying to notice things — the good, the odd, the ordinary. Glad you're here.

Power On: Apple spent a decade losing the smart home. Now it has a plan to compete: HomeView, a new Apple TV and HomePod mini, and LG-built accessories. Tuesday’s unveiling is about protecting the iPhone as much as outfitting your house. www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

If you have a GameCube sitting in your closet collecting dust, this video is for you. It may be old, but it more than likely still works. You just need to fix it. Watch our friend Camran (IG: superlevelz) bring this console back to life.

Apple’s Home device may come in four finishes: Silver, Space Gray, Starlight, and Rose Pink. The Photo Face setup screen picks its preview art based on the hardware color the device reports. The device’s housing may also show in setup screens once device assets are available.

Setting up Apple’s upcoming Home device includes a new step: creating a Photo Face. It’s the same Photo Face coming to StandBy on iPhone Duo. That might explain why Apple hasn’t officially made StandBy available in the simulator.

We love a mechanical iris. We'd love it more if we knew what a replacement camera module will cost.
