There's a New Name on the List of Americans Who Stood Up for the Republic
 
Someday, when this is all over, and when everybody is pretending that this administration* never happened, there is going to be a roll of honor for people who stood for the republic, many of them career public servants risking their careers and their financial security—lawyers cost money—and we don't even know all of their names now. We know some of them: Marie Yovanovitch and Fiona Hill and Bill Taylor. And now we know another one, and his name is Alexander Vindman, and he is a lieutenant colonel in the United States Army.

We Tested Out the New Apple AirPods Pro In-Ear Buds with Active Noise Cancellation
 
If there's one thing to hate about the first and second gen AirPods, it's the ear tip. If you have the correct ear hole shape for them, then consider yourself blessed. If you do not, however, there's not much you can do about it, except repeatedly stick them back into your ears when they fall out.
