Hi Chuck

16:33:53
I'm sure Apple liked the kudos that the blue bubble brought about with them having to be complicit in being superior
MajikMan
16:35:49
Yes I knew I was not connecting to another Apple user, my wife hasen't a clue.
MajikMan
16:36:53
She's asked me if there was something wrong with her phone when it went green.
MajikMan
16:37:50
100% Jeff

Not in the states Patrice, social media has hyped the blue bubble kudos
patrice
16:38:41
Hey bobbeach
MajikMan
16:39:56
Its frightning that messages from my bank are in the Green
patrice
16:40:48
Yeah.. that is not great
bobbeach
16:40:52
I never speak to any greenies! (I’m joking)
MajikMan
16:41:26
because the bank sent me a payment confirmation text, which was intercepted by crooks, and we lost over £5000.
MajikMan
16:42:21
They knew they were in the wrong and we got he money back a few days later, but very disturbing.
MajikMan
16:43:32
100% agree @patrice
bobbeach
16:47:13
Is Bending Spoons owned by Uri Geller? 😂
bobbeach
16:51:00
Wasn’t it the ability to use two cameras at once
patrice
16:51:10
yes. Multiple even!
bobbeach
16:51:55
Black magic camera app killed it
bobbeach
16:52:11
Free and better
bobbeach
16:54:36
I have podcasts via CarPlay
MajikMan
16:55:04
Finally a reason to buy a tesla
MajikMan
16:55:52
Cybertruc here I come.
benroethig
16:56:15
bigger than a F-150 but less useful
MajikMan
16:56:19
Oh wait it cant be sold in the UK because its too dangerous
patrice
16:56:55
at twice the price
MajikMan
16:57:53
Elon's dislike of Apple
MajikMan
16:59:07
Yep Ben, big issue when we were buying a new car, ruled a few out
bobbeach
16:59:14
I wouldn’t buy a Tesla cos they’re too expensive for me
MajikMan
16:59:37
Did your BMW have carplay Patrice?
bobbeach
17:00:03
I would never buy a car without CarPlay
benroethig
17:00:07
If it had carplay and you know who wasn't involved, a Model Y would be at the top of my list
MajikMan
17:01:18
this quick item jeff
JeffG
17:01:29
Right? HA!
MajikMan
17:01:56
If I was looking at full eectric, Tesla are in the top draw overall.
MajikMan
17:02:47
In the UK their recharge system is the best.
patrice
17:04:09
Te UK has a pretty good system if Fully Charged is to be believed
MajikMan
17:04:09
were using a petrol hybrid which works pretty well
chuckjoiner
17:04:46
That's what I drive, MajikMan. Best of both worlds.
MajikMan
17:05:27
I wish they had also included a home charge facility as well, then perfect
patrice
17:05:31
Or a foul compromise. I rejected that in 2017 because even back then if wasn't a good idea. These days.. even less
chuckjoiner
17:06:07
Why Patrice?
MajikMan
17:06:36
Not really Patrice, for short local stuff, 80% of our driving, with no milage wories when going long distance.
patrice
17:06:49
because you get the weight of a EV and the inefficiencies and complexities of a combustion engine.
chuckjoiner
17:07:29
Fair point, but I'm getting much better mileage and no range anxiety.
MajikMan
17:07:38
yes but you only have a 1.5lt pertrol instead of a big 3lt for the same performance
patrice
17:07:56
and these days, at least in europe and urban areas of the US, EVs get the job done 100% of the time. effortlessly
patrice
17:08:36
I don't have Range Anxiety anymore. Barely had it in 2017 when the charging network in Germany was shit!
MajikMan
17:09:15
true nut we still don't have the necessary infra structure to stop the range problems
chuckjoiner
17:09:15
That is correct for Europe and the way many (most?) use their vehicles. I have enough longer-distance driving for it to be a real thing.
patrice
17:09:51
I've done plenty of long range driving in EVs.
bobbeach
17:10:15
EV’s still too expensive for me I’m afraid
patrice
17:10:35
Last year in February I had a last minute funeral that I had to attend in westenr Germany. A 9h drive with breaks. DId that in an ID3 which is not a long-range vehicle at all
MajikMan
17:10:37
I'm sure our next car will be EV but we thought that the half way step was the best for us at the present.
bobbeach
17:16:52
Got enough ports on my Mac Studio
MajikMan
17:18:35
I use the CalDigit 4 x USB-C hub which saved me going to a Mac Studio, well till M3 version next year.

Not a cool thing but you have go to see the Rolls Royce scene in Episode 3 of Slow Horses. Sums up the whole ethos of the show in one scene.
JeffG
17:26:01
That was an excellent scene
benroethig
17:29:36
And Tinder??? I'm swiping right on this.
MajikMan
17:34:09
Can you ask Jeff if theres any interest out there in the return of The Photo Show please.
MajikMan
17:35:17
Did you see last nights MasterChef Patrice?
patrice
17:35:34
UK version? No.
patrice
17:35:41
I only watch the US one :)
MajikMan
17:36:10
It showed thios amazing restaurant in Copenhagen. Out of this world.
MajikMan
17:36:33

patrice
17:36:45
Will do. That sounds amazing!
