- DDO with DS and DW. Last night DW blew up a bit, which really for him is getting snippy. Guess he really wants to play DDO whilst I’ve been putting it and Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands off when there are only three of us. So we will be playing DDO as much as possible for the next few months.

- Called mom to wish her happy Mother’s Day. I thought we’d probably visit them for Father’s Day but later CSr and Steph said we’ll visit Sun/Mon Memorial Day Weekend.

- iPad OS 17.7.7 released and installed. Now whenever I quit/restart Star Trek Fleet Command it’s not logged in and goes to my Lvl 12 account from a long time ago. Then have to sign in to Scopely and load the cloud save so at least can get back to my game. But all badges and new user warnings seem to be reset so that’s annoying. On my iPhone with iOS 18.5 it’s working ok so I guess I’ll use my iPhone for now and hope Scopely has an update later. I guess there’s also the desktop app which I haven’t installed.

- Ran a load of the dishwasher and it didn’t flush enough water to get to the leak under the kitchen sink. I thought it had the time before that. Anyway eventually I’ll take a closer look and maybe duct tape will be enough of a patch.

- Tweaked my back a bit reaching back to scratch my back. If I twist my torso or bend it sometimes I can feel it.

- I noted last Monday that iPadOS 17.7.7 update made Star Trek Fleet Command unusable. Now the update is unavailable and I guess there will be a new update later. I’ve been playing STFC on my iPhone SE and it’s been a bit rough. I like to use two screens but iPhone screen is so small that I can’t really focus on the small screen and on my iPad/MBP screens. Guess I should have waited to apply the update.

- I forgot you can do an iPad restore to go back to a previous OS version. Apparently only restore from the last backup to your Mac (not sure about iCloud saves) but I’m fairly sure I did backup before updating iPadOS. Restore does erase the iPad so you lose some data (and newly installed apps) unless that data was stored in iCloud… Mind you even if you have an encrypted backup (which stores login and other secure info) the backup doesn’t have the OS or apps. OS is installed from backup installer on your Mac and apps are re-downloaded from the App Store…. Unfortunately I guess I backed up after installing iPadOS 17.7.7 and unfortunately if an app is no longer on the App Store you can’t re-download it.
