In case you weren’t aware, Apple have re-released iOS 26 beta 4.

I upgraded to the first release 2 days ago and beta 4 stopped CarPlay from working in my VW, just got a blank car display when connected (wirelessly).

Beta 4 re-released yesterday fixes this for me.

I asked ChatGPT to write a song about social media pressures and unattainable standards for young people and to give me style cues for Suno.

Fed it all into Suno and I’m pleased with the result.

I give you: Filtered Faces

When you get to this scene in the film Bring Her Back, do yourself a favour and stop. Skip forward 30 seconds or shut your eyes as the next scene is Nasty! Capital N! #bringherback #nevertouchingacarvingknifeagain #carvingknivesarenotforeatingfruit 😬

Few motorcycles parked while cold drinks are consumed.

Beach stop for a coolish breeze break. Queenswood area.

Sometimes, you just need to go for a ride, hang with a few friends, then take a couple minutes to do nothing.

I do love Wales. I need to come here more often.

#wales #vacation.

June. It's really good.

I have one. Optimate 4. Battery was charging all night (set to lipo and non can bus) direct to the battery. Dead this morning. Red showing in battery health.

Disconnected from bike for 30 secs then reconnected and it started to take a charge and is now fully charged. Battery health now green

I went to pick up some cake for myself and the wife on my #motorcycle. It isn’t my fault that I don’t know any cake shop within 40 miles 😉

When the awards season rolls around again, Adolescence on Netflix will win everything. Extraordinary drama. Unmissable.

Disconnected battery for 30 secs this morning and error has gone. I still have an engine warning light and battery was showing as empty despite being on a direct charger overnight.

Time to get it to the dealers.

I spoke to soon. Red dash of death on my #R1300GSA TE ASA.

Bike starts and can manually change gear but I’m missing:
Indicators
Abs
Rev counter
Speedo
Gps power.
Time to call recovery as it’s not safe to ride it to the dealer who isn’t open until Monday.

Beautiful morning for a ride on The Beast. #motorcycle #bmwmotorrad #r1300gsa
