AirDrop in the Air, Literally
Update: I don't think this is real, he must have AirDropped to a phone nearby.
AirDrop actually works for a longer distance than I thought:

Scan Documents with iOS 11 Notes App
Scan Documents with iOS 11 Notes App
I have scanned 10+ documents with the iOS 11 Notes App (don't ask me why). Even though it feels really slow on my iPhone 6 Plus, it's still much faster than using my scanner. ARKit FTW!
Replacing My iPhone 6s for Free
My iPhone 6s has had the Unexpected Shutdown issue for a while. After months of procrastination, I finally went to the Apple Store this Saturday afternoon.
My appointment was at 16:50. The staff told me that it takes 3 hours to replace the battery, and the store closes at 19:00. So I have to leave the phone overnight and pick up the next day.
I said OK.
However, I remember last time Apple had this issue with iPhone 5, they would actually replace my old phone with a new one (or refurbished one?) immediately in the store. Oh yes, I am very lucky to be a victim twice.
I'm totally fine without a new phone this time.
Then the next day, a different person handled my case. They brought both my old and a new phone to me. Guess what? The new phone was for me. And I just need to reset my old phone for them.
They said one thing, but did another.
I'm very confused. The only reasonable explanation I could think is, they wanted to take a look at my old phone then decide what to do.
Maybe I should have a doubt about anything they say. After all, they have told me "not closing your apps will kill your iPhone”.
Oh! Darling (The Beatles) by Casey Adams at Grand Canyon Western Ranch
Me and my wife stayed and had a great thanksgiving dinner at Grand Canyon Western Ranch.
After dinner, the professional musician Casey Adams built a campfire and played numerous songs for all the guests, including many of the ones he wrote. This is Oh! Darling (with a good night song in the middle for the family leaving early).

Super Mario Run Podcast
Apple has released a new podcast Super Mario Run, interviewing Shigeru Miyamoto:
Join the video game designer and creator famously known for Super Mario Bros. and other iconic Nintendo games for an insightful chat on the making of Super Mario Run. He'll be in conversation with TV personality Katie Linendoll to share the importance of fun and the inspiration behind the gameplay.
Not sure this is a one time thing, or there will be future episodes.
