Excellent thus far… An interesting new phase I’ve learned from book is “negative freedom” and “positive freedom,” which are both philosophical terms. In summary, negative freedom is typically what we in America refer to as freedom; obstacles are impeding our freedom and when those are clear we refer to that as freedom. Positive freedom is viewing freedom holistically without internal or external barriers.

I’ve just learned these terms and my summary may differ from those published, but I’m planning on reading more on the terms.

Highly recommend book to any fans of racing, and perhaps, of history. Fascinating read and a page turner!

I’m strolling through clouds with Atkinson Hyperlegible (highly recommend!) font bold 2 and size 3

Great book and highly recommend!

I’m reading Prequel and Heaven & Earth Grocery Store (my image attachment failed a few times)

Updated to latest OS. Pretty cool. Enjoying some good reading since I’ve been out of commission for a bit.

What are folks thoughts on putting in personal information in for device recovery?

I’ve typically just use my first letter of name and phone number for device name.

Does anyone do anything different? What information do you include?

Also, just realized that I did put a device PIN on it, so. It sure if any information would be helpful if I lost it and it were found

I am reading ‘Prequel’ by Rachel Maddow. Great book. I came down with a terrible cold that has sidelined my ability to focus. Can’t read while not feeling well. Anyhow… I put myself back on ‘Libby waitlist’ for library loan.

In meanwhile, I figured it can’t returned if I put it into ‘Airplane-mode’; Is that right?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY ALMOST NEW YEAR!!!

I find if I choose two radically different subjects, or genres, it is less challenging and doesn’t feel overwhelming. For instance, I was reading ‘The Republic’ by Plato and ‘The Nasty Bits’ by Anthony Bourdain last time.

Now I am reading ‘Prequel’ by Rachel Maddow (non-fiction) and ‘The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store’ by James McBride (fiction).

Are you a two-timer?

Started this book and am really enjoying it thus far. It is a great follow-up, or prequel, if you will, to her podcast ‘Ultra’. Fascinating story, and a warning…
