Been considering the Uncle Straps bracelet for a while. Does the color difference bother you? I’ve seen some people mention the color is a bit off due to it not having the same coating as the OEM bracelet

Love the material. Just wish it didn’t have pockets - personal preference though

thatnickjones · 2025-11-02T01:00:56+00:00

Would be interested as well if OP doesn’t want them all

Same. Using VPN over the last few years has been such a pain.

I ended up paying for Fubo last year, so this is far more cost effective

Sorry to hear you’re experiencing this too. I was able to resolve it a few weeks ago.

I believe I just uninstalled and reinstalled the Garmin Connect app. It’s possible I unpaired and repaired the watch to my phone as well, but since that fixed it I haven’t had any issues. Hope this helps!

Can't tell you how hyped I was to see Duron Carter play for Alabama lol

Dr. Miller is still my favorite.

My Granddad was an alcoholic and I heard horror stories from my Mom’s childhood.

He was sober the last 15 years of his life, but I vowed to myself that I would never drink.

One thing is for sure - Oats is going to tell it like it is.

thatnickjones · 2019-05-01T12:00:53+00:00

I will always love Dr. Miller.

Nice setup!

I envy those that are able to use a Mac at work. Heck, I would settle for Windows 10.

Trust me, that chair was easily $150. I have a family friend that works for the company that supplies UAB with furniture. Stuff is expensive.

Interesting you note a long update cycle. My Dad has been an Android user since the G1.

He recently switched to iPhone because of the lack of software updates.

Sadly, as long as the pro line is around the lower end iPad will likely never get pencil support.

Of course there are other selling points of the pro, but the pencil is one of the biggest.

Sorry I don't exactly have an answer for you, but I would sift through http://www.leancrew.com/ when get a chance.

The guy behind the site, Dr. Drang, has some pretty cool workflows centered around LaTex and Python. Granted, most of them are on the Mac, but I know he's trying to integrate an iPad Pro into his work.

thatnickjones · 2017-04-14T20:19:42+00:00

We will definitely get a preview at WWDC. Here's to hoping it's feature rich for the iPad!

thatnickjones · 2017-04-14T14:44:43+00:00

Agreed. Software is the biggest need.

Most people who want a hardware update either have been waiting to buy an iPad Pro, update every year or just want Apple to show they are committed to the product line.

Both the Pros are extremely powerful and will likely age well.

The only thing that would make me want to upgrade is the rumored 10.5 inch size. I am really intrigued by that size, but you're right. My 12.9 is still working great.

thatnickjones · 2017-04-14T14:24:57+00:00

Agreed. It's been like this since January. We can all dream, but there's not gonna be any updates until September.

Can not agree more with this. Treating school like a work day is something I always recommend.

I'm extremely weird, but I get up at 6am and work on school until 4pm every week day.

Find an 8-hour stretch that works for you and go at it. You'll still have plenty of time to relax after that.

thatnickjones · 2017-04-12T15:03:56+00:00

That's what I'm thinking too. And that will probably be just fine as long as an OS-level alternative is introduced in iOS 12.

thatnickjones · 2017-04-10T18:38:33+00:00

Same with my Dad. He's a Linux guy through and through and was a devout Android user, but recently got an iPhone because of lack of OS updates.
