A few months back, TFB received a new Editor-in-chief. Pete's departure was also a handing-off of the reigns to our guest today, Mr. Josh Centers. Josh Centers comes from a background entirely based in the media world. From web and print publications, Search Engine optimization, social media integration and campaigns, and more, Josh is bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table here at TFB. However, just because Josh has a lot of experience, doesn't mean he's going to completely flip the script. As you'll see today, Josh is a die-hard firearms enthusiast and it's part of what brought him to TFB. Today we'll hear how he came to be editor-in-chief of TFB, what some of his favorite firearms are, and what the path going forward for TFB looks like from his perspective.
Growing concerned over the Ferguson Riots, Josh started to think and respond differently to how to better prepare himself and his family should anything happen. He writes a great Substack called Unprepared.Life and even the free content is worth subscribingUnprepared.LifeJosh Centers on Twitter/XFarmHopLife websiteFarmHopLife #20x23projectFarmHopLife Linktree

We start the second part of our conversation with Josh Centers, the author of Take Control of iOS 14 and iPadOS 14, with a review of some of the privacy and security features Apple has built in to iOS 14. Some of those include video and camera use indicators, limited photo roll access by default, and why the new clipboard access notifications correct a potential weak spot in security. Other new features include sleep tracking, improvements to Notes, Voice Memo organization, a translation app, and a lot more. Then we switch over to iPadOS 14 and talk about which of the iOS 14 features are and are not included, why Scribble may be a productivity game changer, and get Josh’s advice on whether these updates should be installed on Day One, or whether you may want to wait a little while.

Josh Centers has completely re-written his guide to Apple’s mobile operating systems in Take Control of iOS 14 and iPadOS 14. Josh explains how the App Library in iOS 14 works, why it might look like your apps are in two places at once (but aren’t), and how management of those apps is just a little different. Widgets will give you always-on access to the information you want, and provide a new way to display that information. Josh gives us some examples, including a radical idea for a Home or second screen that is now possible. (Part 1) LinkedIn Jobs This edition of MacVoices is supported by LinkedIn Jobs.
