I heard that he made it shit or crazy on purpose so it wouldn't become a movie.

I mean, yes of course to emergency services, didn't know about the emergency contacts.

To be fair, I didn't really look into the details of how Apple did it since Google did this a few years ago (I have a Pixel). I completely forgot about the emergency contacts bit. Just checked and I have it set up with my wife already. Oops.

My Pixel never went off when I went on roller coasters this year although I didn't take it on the most extreme one due to fear of it falling out. It's certainly plausible.

How would you fix this? Create exclusion zones for crash detection?

The crash detection also sends GPS deets to someone? I hadn't heard that.

Arthur Christmas is also excellent. It usually pops up on Netflix each year.

Excellent Aussie series and we all love it. Has so many little bits of Aus culture sprinkled throughout and it's just a pleasure to watch.

Funnily my brother and I couldn't even watch it without falling the floor laughing. The part where he runs right up to the camera and squints and there is some weird foghorn sound in the background?

Still, one of my fav kid films.

Edward Rutherford has written a few based on major cities (New York, London) or countries (China, Russia) that caught my eye in a book shop this weekend. The synopsis looks like a novel that travels through the entire history or the place through multiple stories/characters through the ages. Might be worth a look.
