Modular Ultra

Morning Coffee 122: Aug. 12th, 2024

Good morning. Hario v60 coffee in Stanley thermos. Admin time. Lots of little tasks inside of Things this morning. Prepping for a busy week with big changes on the horizon. Played basketball twice last week (Aiming for three this week). Still running 5K a day. Watching Industry and started playing Detroit: Become Human for the first time. This is Morning Coffee 122. Buy me a coffee to keep it going. As always, I hope this letter finds you well.

Modular Ultra

My Apple Watch is always on my wrist, evening when sleeping, showering, or playing basketball. I consider the Apple Watch my most important computer, tracking all of my health data, and giving me important information with just a glance at my wrist.

The Watch face I’m using is Modular Ultra, an exclusive face to the Apple Watch Ultra. On the left side of the bezel shows my vitals (heart rate, respiratory rate, wrist temperature, sleep duration, and blood oxygen). The right side of the bezel shows my training load (intensity and duration of workouts).

The top of the screen shows my messages, the day of the week, and the Watch’s battery life. The middle of the screen shows the time and my next calendar event. The bottom of the screen shows my exercise rings, any tasks for that day, and the weather conditions outside.


Previously: On August 5th, I wrote about a media tracker. On July 29th, I wrote about how not to use bookmarks. On July 22nd, I wrote about how my daughter watches her cartoons. On July 8th, I wrote about how to setup a Mac. On July 1st, I wrote about journaling. On June 24th, I wrote about our trip to Destin. On June 17th, I wrote about how to pack for a vacation. And on May 5th, I showed off the arcade machine we built.

Writing a newsletter every Monday. Playing basketball a few times a week. A dad to a little girl. She just turned three. Doing tech support for our local hospital. Last updated: November 12th, 2024.
