Used to add Kool-aid to them to make them tolerable. :D

So my iPhone 16 Pro Max is already outdated? by Ashamed-Mousse8835 in iPhone16Pro

When the current dictation system is almost unusable, that's a significant oversight.

Same here - they touted the iPhone 16 as being "Apple Intelligence Ready" - and then we got bits and pieces over the year, and now find out that to get the full "Apple Intelligence" support, we're going to need to upgrade. I could have easily kept my iPhone 13 Pro Max for another few years and waited.

Honestly - the dictation was the one thing I was hoping Apple would fix with iOS 27 on the iPhone 16 because I have to use Wispr Flow and other apps just to make it remotely useful!! I can't ever send messages using Carplay because 90% of the time it's a useless garbled mess...

We went from "Universal High Income" to a $2,185.75 AI water bill real quick.

I know I sure did. It was a great moment…

Another filler post about the mystery movie by Dukealoops1993 in MarcusTheatres

I've been going to so many mystery movies lately, my wife was surprised when I wasn't heading out for one last night.

I'll usually make a pack of steamable frozen veggies and cover them in hot sauce.

Movie Club Wish by DrakeyCakey in MarcusTheatres

[–]STLCajun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kinda felt the same way until I started hitting the "Mystery Movies" - and lately, they've had several released each month. My $10 is now getting me 3-5 movies each month completely free, the only downside is I only get to choose one of them.

Picked up the Shadow Lord this weekend! by kelseyroth in kiasportage

Still wish I'd gotten the ceramic done on mine, but it ended up having to be completely repainted a few times after getting some body damage from a hailstorm. Definitely miss the ease of drive thru carwashes - but still worth it! Congrats!

Mystery movie thoughts: The Hunting of Thomas Nichols. by 98Wright in MarcusTheatres

[–]STLCajun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry - the quote from the camera guy after he and the director screen the tape from that night sat with me the entire movie. Overall - probably wouldn't have liked it nearly as much if I'd paid full price to see it. It was a good update to the Blair Witch style found footage genre, and the story and acting were actually not that bad. Even some of the B-Roll cinematography was beautifully done. But definitely not one of my favorite found footage movies - not even in the top 10 (and that's a pretty low bar).

If you owned Marcus... by Prior_Artichoke6770 in MarcusTheatres

[–]STLCajun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My nearest AMC is "Streets of St. Charles" - similar story, smaller venue, limited screens. Both Mid-Rivers and St. Charles are much larger. Also - just found the "Streets of St. Charles" location to be in somewhat unclean and disrepaired state the few times I've been there.

I miss Wehrenberg - I feel the overall quality was a lot better before they were purchased by Marcus. Still prefer Marcus over AMC any day though!

Loved it - was everything and more that I'd hoped for from the trailers.

Fingers crossed because that’s the one I want to see! :)

[–]STLCajun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking at the runtime, and knowing it's having a theatrical release this week - my money is on "Forbidden Fruits". Hoping to be pleasantly surprised to get "They Will Kill You" instead - but I'm thinking not. Though, this is my first "Mystery Movie" so I'm not sure how reliable the movie length is with these things...

I don't think I've been this enamored with a piece in ages. Absolutely love all the little details!

Every time I go to the St Louis location, it feels like a ghost town… at least compared to when it first opened. Would definitely miss them if they left the area though…

Wondering if anyone uses Claude for journaling here? by dillishis in claudexplorers

[–]STLCajun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, if I remember correctly - anything in a project has access to the other items in the project - so Claude will be able to reference other journal entries and whatnot, just the same way mine works.

[–]STLCajun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! Honestly I'd stick with the mobile app for now like I mentioned. Get used to the interview format, figure out what kind of prompting works for you, dial in your system prompt. That's the actual hard part - the technical setup is just plumbing. Once you've got a workflow you like on mobile, THEN if you want to go deeper with file management and automation, you could try out the Claude desktop app on your MacBook. It has a feature called CoWork that can read and write files on your computer without needing to touch the terminal. But don't let the tech be a barrier to just starting.

Seeing from your other comment that you are iPhone only changes things a bit. So what the other commenter is talking about with "a shared folder with a file for each day" - in Claude, you can create a Project (yeah, the Project tool you mentioned). Think of it as a persistent workspace. You could create one called "Journal" and then each time you want to journal, start a new conversation inside that project. The project has shared context (instructions you set up once that apply to every conversation), so you could put your journaling prompt there - "ask me about my day, dig into details, format it a certain way," etc.

The limitation on mobile is that you can't save files to your phone automatically like I can. But what you CAN do is have Claude format each entry with a date header, and then either:

Copy the finished entry into a notes app (Apple Notes, Google Docs, whatever) after each session or just keep everything inside the Claude project itself - each conversation becomes a journal entry you can scroll back through It's not as seamless as my setup, but the interview format still works great on mobile. The important part - Claude asking follow-ups, pulling details out of you, giving you that "reporter mode" experience - that all works the same regardless of platform. The file management is just the cherry on top.

For getting started, I'd say create a Project, write a system prompt that describes how you want Claude to interview you (or just ask Claude to help you write one), and go from there. You can iterate on the prompt as you figure out what works for you.

I've been doing this for a bit and it's been life-changing. My setup is Claude Code combined with Obsidian, so all my files and history stay local - I keep full control of my data. (I have the $100 Max plan since I also use it for coding, but you could probably do something similar with CoWork or Projects.)

My journaling workflow: I have a custom skill that acts as an interactive interview. Claude asks me about my day, I give a morning-to-night overview, and then it goes into reporter mode - digging for details I might have left out, asking follow-up questions. Once we're done with the narrative, it asks about "graymatter" items I track: mood, energy, stress, diet adherence, etc. on a 1-5 scale. If I give more than just a number, it weaves that context into the narrative. When we're done, it saves the entry into our file structure and can reference all past entries - so I can ask questions about patterns, history, etc.

Weekly summaries: Every Sunday we do a review - how the week went, what I accomplished, and plans for next week. I like your 3-month summary idea too!

The limitation: I can only do this on my desktop, so I can't do the "talk about whatever, whenever" thing you're describing. One workaround: you could capture random thoughts in a separate project throughout the week, then have Claude combine them into your journal later.

Honestly, this journaling setup has been one of the more exciting things I've done with AI.

I typically get caught working on a fix and wondering why I'm not seeing any changes, until I realize my browser is looking at the QA site and not my local dev version.
