Way back in January, there was the exciting announcement of a new Creator Studio from Apple. I thought that Ai would play a large role, and had Siri Ai been rolled out properly, those kinds of features would have been included from the start of the new creative “suite”.

I do my best not to complicate my life. #NoDrama Technology does its best to definitely complicate my life. I fully realize it’s self-inflicted. Today’s Apple Event is just such an example. However, it’s not limited to just the most recent Apple Park dog and pony. It is also the decidedly first-world memory-hardrive-chip-manufacturing “crisis” that […]

In honor of the anniversary of my mom and dad’s wedding, September 6th 1952, I have a good excuse to tell you a little about my dad. I, of course, keep a permanent link to a post about my mom in the About menu of this blog – How This Blog Got Its Name. I’ve […]

Since then I’ve flown the DJI Neo 2 drone […]

I think. I’ve never paid for Final Cut Pro. I’ve been fortunate that the universities I have worked for, University of Mary Washington and University of North Florida, paid the $300 for my licenses of FCP. The latest purchase was back on November of 2015 when I first started working for UNF. If you break […]

Oh, I forgot the question mark – My Last DJI Drone? This will definitely be a “to be continued” post. I ordered a new drone on December 26, 2025 and I feel like this could potentially be an epic saga. First a short bit of backstory. The drone I ordered is the 5th drone I […]

21. Twenty One blog posts in 2025. Not my best year certainly, but back on track(-ish). Just like the copious amount of miles I put on the bike this, I mean, last year, I wanted to blog more. In 2026 I hope to get in more bike miles and more blog posts. Year in review […]
