iPhone Max + battery = Maglite
iPhone Max with smart battery case has the same reassuring weight as one of those big Maglite flashlights that take 4 D batteries.
Hefty
iPhone Max with the smart battery case on it has some serious heft to it!
Slack’s new logo
Well at least one good thing came from Slack’s logo redesign: the new app icon caught my eye and reminded me that Slack doesn’t need to be on my first home screen anymore.

Hochstuckli Panorama
View from the Hochstuckli down into Schwyz. More low key skiing at Sattel this morning. I try to be on the slopes by 9, in the gondola heading back down the mountain by 10:30, and then at home and at my desk as soon as possible thereafter.
Smart Battery Case
Ordered a smart battery case for my iPhone Max. That thing will be a tank! I could have used this last month for our Amazon trip.
Outdoor refrigerator
I was returning from the store with a trolley full of groceries. Since it is 2°C outside and this is Switzerland, I just left them in the shade in front of the building until I could get a key.
Locked out
I locked myself out of my apartment for 2.5h this afternoon. (All I have to do is leave without the key and I’m locked out.) Without the kindness of a neighbor I would have been locked out for much longer.
