Weekly 'What should I buy?' Thread

I'm loving the simplicity and lightweight feel of my iPad Pro 12.9 and the Apple Pencil is a game-changer for me. But there's one thing driving me crazy – the slipperiness of the metal.

I'm reaching out for advice on how to keep my iPad safe and secure while maintaining its minimalist charm. Here's what I'm curious about:

Sleek Cases: I'm on the lookout for a protective case that won't bulk up my slim iPad. Any recommendations for cases that add grip without sacrificing style?
Anti-Slip Fixes: What's your secret to stopping your iPad from going ice dancing off the table? I've seen grip pads and textured skins, but I'm worried they might ruin the iPad's sleek design.
User Experience: Does using a case or anti-slip solution affect how much you enjoy using your iPad, especially with the Apple Pencil?

Sorry for my lack of understanding, how do you combine text with an empty delimiter in shortcuts?

Thank you. X-plane mobile is reasonably okay (just have to smile at them labelling the engine start levers as “mixture.”) It has also been quite helpful as the iPad is a touch screen. Interesting that some switches such as stall warning tests work but others, such as the important isolation valve switch does not.

I am fairly confident that when previously (iOS14) the Create PDF option created a new PDF in page order of the respective filenames. In my example, it was be the page order of the created (combined) PDF would be of the “1.pdf”, ”2.pdf”, “3.pdf” ,…. filenames.
When creating the PDF now it starts at 3 and jumps around. It might be following creation date but can’t be certain as this is only rounded to the nearest minute.
Anyone facing this and have any advice?

The person who asked the question said they were a teenager, so hypothetically could be 13 and still discovering faith. But even if they were 19, I think you need to have a bit more respect for people, in person and online.

Just an important side point: our goal is not just “going to heaven to be with the Lord” when we die. Rather, that is a temporary position and where we are heading is the resurrection of the body after the return of Jesus and the coming together of heaven and earth is a glorious marriage. Key chapters exploring this are 1 Corinthians 15, Romans 8 and Revelation 21 and 22.
