iOS惡性bug搞殘iPhone
若iOS設了自動深色模式，切換後有小概率觸發極度惡性bug，iPhone依序發生：背景沒了、app打不開、無法解鎖、鎖定畫面大部份功能失效、螢幕無法關閉。
解決方式只有強制重新開機，即依序 + 一下、- 一下、開關長按。今晚本來要採購，被這件事毀了。

A week with iPad mini 6
I don’t work on a tablet, and I seldom use the portrait mode, so the jelly display isn’t an issue. I do gaming, web browsing, social networking, and watching videos on a tablet more. That’s why I ultimately bought an iPad mini 6 which display is just slightly narrower than my iPad (6th generation), but it’s still significantly smaller and lighter, good for gaming and using it on the bed. Genshin Impact runs especially well on my iPad mini 6 with consistent 60 FPS and the just warm temperature. However, a few apps, including Telegram and Alto series, are not very optimised and there are some minor UX issues. Overall, iPad mini 6 is a suitable tablet if your usages are like mine.

Internet upgraded to 500M/50M
Since 30 April 2022, Meow’s internet speed is upgraded to 500M (downloading) / 50M (uploading), provided by TWM Broadband (台灣大寬頻). It was 60M/20M.
The following summary is generated by the command networkQuality -v which is introduced in macOS Monterey.
Upload capacity: 40.399 Mbps
Download capacity: 452.926 Mbps
Upload flows: 12
Download flows: 12
Responsiveness: High (1967 RPM)
Base RTT: 14
Start: 2022/4/30 16:34:52
End: 2022/4/30 16:35:02
OS Version: Version 12.3.1 (Build 21E258)
The result indicates a speed slightly slower than what speed testing websites suggested, but seems more realistic.

鬆懈的下場：iPhone XR刮傷
Meow自2018年10月購入iPhone XR黑色款以來，長期都套當時一同購買的保護殼，長達兩年時間僅取出數次清潔，因此iPhone XR曾經一直保持近乎全新。
2020年底至今為防止遊戲造成iPhone XR過熱而卸下保護殼，僅出遠門才套上，然而缺少保護殼後在非出遠門的場合仍發生意外。數月前充電途中因同時在附近連接其他設備，不小心拉扯充電線導致iPhone XR滑落，好在充電位置離地板近，邊框僅留下非常不明顯的印記，自此十分注意充電環境。
後來發生的意外更加嚴重。2021年6月27日，這天是個星期天，Meow去附近買午餐，等待過程中途下起暴雨，回程意圖減少雨淋而小跑步，iPhone XR卻從口袋飛出。儘管螢幕毫髮無傷，背面玻璃下方有多道細微刮痕，鏡頭玻璃邊緣略有磨損，而邊框甚至因摩擦產生四道刮痕，肉眼清晰可見，白色鋁合金外露和黑框形成明顯反差。
屢次充分檢查，瞭解沒有任何地方裂開，手機功能一切正常，拍照成像沒有影響，算是這台iPhone XR命大，然而邊框刮痕掉漆還是需要解決。由於是黑色款，可用普通的方式試圖修補，因此傍晚購入雙頭奇異筆，先以1毫米筆頭基本填補，再以0.5毫米筆頭修飾細節，靜置一段時間後對較大刮痕再上一層。
修補結果當然不算完美，在明亮環境下特定角度會反光而察覺刮傷位置，但平時若非細看其實不容易發現，比起原本明顯的白色掉漆刮痕，填補後的邊框已不影響觀瞻，而且奇異筆屬油性，經測試觸摸和沾水都不會脫落，儘管未來時間久了也可能緩慢脫落，但使用奇異筆就能快速復原。
就算iPhone XR邊框外觀大致修復，傷害仍是永久，只要手摸即可感受不平滑的觸感，再加上還有前面提到的反光。Meow的iPhone XR至此不再完美，但這也深深警示了Meow，待人處世只要一鬆懈，就會有意外發生，需要承受的代價更是一生一世。自此Meow只要出門攜帶手機，必會戴保護殼，避免歷史重演。

DEPTHY另類用途
網上很多評測介紹過三維看圖工具DEPTHY，加上灰階景深圖即能呈現3D效果，原理是越亮越遠、越暗越近。DEPTHY還能建立GIF動畫，物件即可重複水平、垂直或繞圈移動。但Meow不打算介紹如何使用，而是它的另類用途。
