We went to the mall. Later, I bought an app.

We went to the Apple store. I played with a new iPad Pro. Tried hard not to like it, but it was a really pleasant experience.
The demo iPad had a great note-taking app that could help my search for an app that let me handwrite notes and then search through their content later.
Been messing with Windows and WSL 2 more lately. So we went to the Microsoft store too. I tried hard to like it, but everything felt a little clumsy and disappointing after the smoothness of the Apple devices.
When I got home I had to find and install GoodNotes, the notebook app I played with at the Apple Store, on my own iPad. Yeah I like it. This will come in real handy.
Oh and I want a matte screen protector. Supposedly gives you more of a paper feel when working on the iPad.

I admit with some chagrin that it never occurred to me to wonder what Martin Scorsese thought about superhero movies.
But the real question is who’s his fave Spidey? I think the auteur in him prefers Donald F. Glut but Tom Holland stole his heart.

Interesting list. I’d at least add “The Religion of Technology” by David Noble. Read it ~2000. Gave me a little historical perspective when dealing with adherents of Disruption and/or Ascension.
Also helped me not be so evangelical about Linux.

Trying to get the dogs dancing to Eisenfunk. They’re amused.

Some kind of event going on in Seattle judging by all the traffic. So we escaped. To Bellevue.
Bellevue? Well yeah. We wanted to go to the mall, and Bellevue is the mall.

So yeah GoodNotes on the iPad (with Apple Pencil) is far closer to my taste than anything I’ve managed on the Note 9.

Sure, multi-classing is a bitch but I’m nearly third level now! Might reach fourth by the time I’m 60.
