Apple Maps. The integration across my iPad, iPhone, and Apple Watch is too good, and I have Shortcuts and automations to bring up directions as needed. Also, we build guides for vegan-friendly restaurants for out-of-town trips, so it’s a real stress reliever.

I set most of my timers using Siri and avoid 30, 40, 50, and 60 exactly because I can’t seem to emphasize “TY”in a way to distinguish it from “TEEN”. My wife needs to me to clarify those too, so it’s definitely a me problem, not a Siri problem. I instead go over or under a minute or two, depending on the task.

Because Star Wars day sounds better when you say “May the Fourth be with you”. That said, I could be convinced to switch to Yoda-style “With you, the Fourth May be”.

To be clear, DC is a federal territory, not a state, so it doesn’t matter who their highest local elected official is. The only official with pardon power in federal territory is POTUS.

Not an employee, but I was part of an accounting project for a firearms manufacturer at their local shipping and repair facility, and the repair guys would use the hallway for sight alignment, so we’d sometimes step into the hall and see a rifle pointed our way. No ammo was allowed on-site, so it was safe, but it was still unnerving for the first few weeks. Now I fear my response to seeing a rifle pointed my way will be to politely step aside and wait.
