Hi, this is Allison Sheridan of the NosillaCast Apple Podcast, hosted at Podfeet.com, a technology geek podcast with an EVER so slight Apple bias. Today is Sunday, June 18, 2023, and this is show number 945. Steve and I are in Houston right now to visit our son Kyle and his family, so the entire show was prerecorded without the live audience before we left.<\/p>\n

We start with another quick review from Marty Sobo. I’ll step in and explain how to make a virtual switch to control Automations in HomeKit. George from Tulsa is back after a bit of a hiatus with a couple of products that make computing more accessible to him. Finally, in a rare appearance, Steve Sheridan joins me to explain why electric vehicles’ range is so much more affected by things like wind and towing than gas cars.<\/p>\n

Thanks for this, George. I’m glad you found a few solutions to help you out, and it’s awesome that the keyboard was less than $30 and makes a big difference for you.<\/p>\n

I feel your pain in trying to photograph the equipment we use every day \u2014 they look positively disgusting up close! When I do use my own images it takes me forever to get a non-revolting image and to clear enough stuff off my desk to make it not look awful. It was a very good choice to back up a bit to save us all from seeing the closeup.<\/p>\n
