    @cj iwakura you can make a whole trip out of just Paris and the surrounding areas. I found Versailles (which was a shortish train trip from Paris) horribly overcrowded, but the palace grounds alone were worth the trip. Also I bet it’s not crowded right now!


    If you’re into wine or champagne there’s great vineyards not far from the city. The city itself is an amazing place to get good food. Some steak frites at a bistro with a glass of burgundy is a lovely meal

    It’s also just an amazing place to walk around. The architecture is beautiful, and there’s infinity places to get an amazing pastry

    hey apple nerds, i've got a question that someone might have the answer to

    so i was thinking of picking up a projector for someone for christmas. Their usual way of watching stuff is with an ipad and bluetooth headphones because they're in a shared house where you could spit through the walls so speakers are a no go

    if you used a lightning -> hdmi dongle to connect the ipad to the projector, can you still use bluetooth headphones or will it automatically try to do the sound via hdmi? Is the audio just a case of going into the airplay section and selecting the headphones or does the HDMI count as a cast?

    i've tried googling this and found... not much. I think the words ipad, projector, bluetooth, headphones were too generic for me to find what i'm looking for

    Tav, I don't believe thats possible, unfortunately.

    If an AppleTV were to host projector-side airplay instead of HDMI, you could pair the bluetooth headphones with the apple TV and effectively do it. At that point just use the apple TV instead of the iPad tho. Plus cost.

    You could also use a device like this to split out the audio and transmit it to the headphones: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095WBHTQX/

    Not vouching for this thing just letting you know this class of thing exists. Cost again. These headless devices that pair with bluetooth headphones tend to be a pain in the butt.

    These solutions are not great. I think the Apple TV one is least likely to fail but its expensive.

    Maybe the projector will transmit to headphones? You never know.

    I found this and one post was...promising?
    I was able to manually switch the audio by going to control center, tap the audio sharing button and then select the built-in speakers or other connected device. I use my wireless headphones. It doesn’t always stick, but I’ve found once you set it, it tends to stay put.

    It takes a lot of coaching and you have to give them participation trophies or theyll give up, but maybe after 20 years or so,

    (It helps to start with good ones who are in therapy, I actually think 5 years of couples therapy finally got them to a good place)

    the person has an Apple TV (in a different room but its easily moved) so this is probably the best shout

    thanks dankey

    My parents' life advice is to tell me that you can't trust any research because it's all funded and therefore only going to provide the results the liberal elite want and this is why vaccines cause autism.

    AND I can't play Forza.

    This is interesting but it sounds like a glitch or oversight that could be patched out any time. Worth having in a back pocket for sure

    The most famous piece of advice my dad has ever given me was when I started dating my first girlfriend (in my early twenties). Neither parent had ever given me any form of The Talk.

    My dad told me about this ex-Mossad agent who was very good, one of the best, but he quit. He knew all their stuff, so they were trying to get him, but he was too good, he knew all the tricks and they could never catch him. But then one day this woman starts chatting him up at a bar, and even though he was so good he went back with her to her apartment, and there they got him. And that's why I should always use a condom.

    My dad tried to give me a '"the talk" when I was 22 and me and Jebustina had been together for over 4 years at this point, lived together for 2, didn't have a kid, and after he definitely saw a condom wrapper in the bathroom trash of our apartment.

    Yeah, thanks, I'll get right on using a condom. A+ parenting there dad.

    if you want to walk easily you basically have to walk all the time
