I woke up this morning by my nephew jumping on my bed to tell me about his interest in dinosaurs and what he has been doing at school. I got out of bed and had breakfast while the niece and nephew left for school. My brother had a day off from work so we headed down to the mall to pick up some compression shorts that I wear under my work out gear (the pair that I have at the moment are wearing out) and then we headed over to Costco to pick up a few more items and then have lunch. I grabbed a hot dog and some fries – on the fries I put some fresh onions over the top and then squired some tomato sauce because I like the taste of onions with tomato sauce on my fries.
I made a post over on Geekzone because I’m thinking about the Pixel 11 Pro XL when compared to the OPPO Find X10 Pro Max when compared to what Samsung has to offer – what is Oppo’s software support actually like vs what they promise. I am also looking at the larger picture of whether it is necessary to be ‘all in’ on having Android on the phone and Android for the watch or should I mix it up a bit – maybe get a Garmin watch with a 51mm screen on it? I like to keep my options open rather than being “well, I’m an Apple person so I’m only interested in Apple products”.
On a whim I decided to check for updates and Apple has released the 27.2.1 update to fix a few security issues and just to make things interesting I checked for Chrome updates. Google had release an update which updated Chrome from version 157.0.8103.39 to 157.0.8103.51 which fixed 9 security bugs (link). Normally these updates are released on Wednesday New Zealand/Australia time but given that on the notes there is the following statement, “Google is aware that an exploit for CVE-2026-125350 exists in the wild”, it makes sense that Google want to get the update out there asap.
