Pat is pressing random buttons on her new phone (her first smart phone) and emitting "ooh" and "ah" repeatedly in surprise.

Cute!
How did she last so long without a smart phone?!

940 748 I don't know. I predicted that shortly after she got it she would take to it and use it for all sorts of things. We're getting there

940746 I'm getting my new phone today. I broke the screen of my old one and they wanted €120 to fix it... It cost me €200 two years ago when I got it. It's insane. And then they complain about consumerism and throwing things that work just fine away. Who's fault is that?

Well it's not the manufacturers, or the repair shops, doing the complaining! They thrive on consumerism.

I’m still here. I just have not been on much lately.
Gee whiz! It’s crazy how expensive phones are. I buy my Apple phone once every 5 years because I refuse to spend $1000 to upgrade every year. That is money I can use for something else instead. I don’t need the brightest And newest. My iPhone 8 was only $600 back then and of course the new ones are $1000. Then it quit working so in January of 2022 I got the iPhone 14. It’s still going just fine. Not doing a new one for this.

941 741 Pat is impressed with Google's 'Find My Phone' facility. She left it in church on Sunday and Google told her where it was

941740 I got a very nice app today, obsidentify. It allows me to take a picture of a plant and it will tell me what plant it is. Makes planning my garden a lot easier when I see something I might want to use

Ooh I might have to try that. I've had good results with PlantNet though (or Pl@ntNet even).
And Merlin bird id app is brilliant. Although perhaps not so useful for planting things in your garden.

941739 A friend of my colleague apparently worked on obsidentify, so if I have suggestions, I can easily get in touch for them to fix them.
