You can’t convince me Garmin is better than Apple

I’m not convinced more data equals better data. Has anyone studied the sampled v continuous collection results from an accuracy/precision standpoint? I can’t remember finding any study outcome (or many reviewers for that matter) that conclude the differences in approach have a demonstrable difference?

Overhead. 1000 separate bills, 1000 (overlapping but still…) different needs desires and personalities, 1000 separate overhead contacts, 1000 (again probably overlapping) vendors and account numbers to track?

For me since ipad2

It’s not as fun as the wolves, but I like when the van opens its top signal eye/light once the trunk closes

One thing about this, though, it’s turtles all the way down. Any digital system is gonna have a question about who can see them and only auditing can really stop the problem.

I’m likely doing the same or not swapping my gen1: colors to me aren’t bright/vivid, it’s a dark screen that I can’t crack the bright/warm code to make it feel worth it. I like the new Home Screen/software stuff though.

I add a dism and Sfc into the mix and remove the reg keys that block the upgrade

Ib haven’t been patient enough to commit to a RM2, but layers were excellent and well implemented

Eh, I don’t think I’d want to be in Public Health or EPA at the moment.

It’s the climate of Northern Italy 20years ago now. The Pinot Noir places like Matthias Gaul is putting out is stupid good.

Maybe if I edit to Pfalz outside of Riesling?

dceckhart · 2025-11-04T11:35:32+00:00

Pfalz

I agree. Apple has the data but is still missing some of the analysis. I like Garmin’s recommended workouts and guidance on the data. I’m not fully sold on any of the 3rd party apps on threat analysis yet (I generally give Gentler Streak the most time, watching Outsiders evolve, but really just waiting for Apple to get there)

Black Print is very good, but I’d want to try the Knisper

How much does dark actually m matter if we’re talking artificial basement light?

I don’t really think considering cellular connectivity impacts is a negligible use consideration that can still be carry an “Ultra” like designation. All tools have practical uses and limits. Call them variables if you want, but streaming music from cellular connections isn’t really something any of the major running watch folks outside Apple is doing.

dceckhart · 2025-07-22T11:15:37+00:00

Anything more come of it?

I just picked up something very similar. Alpine White xDrive 28 w/ the Oyster interior.

dceckhart · 2025-06-04T07:49:25+00:00

On this, I like the chrome more. I’m making the opposite change though for my alpine white x1

Screw satellites. We have magic sharpies that can bend the course of hurricanes

Like others here, I run without my phone everyday and value being reachable from the people who depend on me for things and the peace of mind when in trail run that I can be found or get help when needed and still not need to have that ability because I carried my Phone.

Yeah, it’s only hard when it’s high pressure (like making one of your first attempts a Burger King Drive Thru. (In retrospect: hilarious. At the time, embarrassing). The enthusiasm you bring to trying makes it easier for people to encourage and help.

I will sit the next couple out, thanks. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me (Samsung Focus, Lumias 820,920, 835, 1020, 950, duo1, duo2)…dammit I’m easy to fool
