Tuesday, June 30, 2026: 1:28 PM: Copilot isn’t always the most accurate consultant on certain things, like software settings, even if you do tell it the exact version. However, upon further investigation, it would seem that Copilot is correct in stating that everything I need settings wise to convert my Apple SE 3 watch from Exercise Coach to monitor can be found under settings/Activity.
Copilot is also correct that once a ring is established, you can only pause it for up to 90 days, which is fine by me. Apparently, if you pause a ring the watch stops recording data, which is something I don’t want it to do. So, after all three rings are close today, I will turn off “Stand Reminders”, and switch “Send to Notification Center” to Off.

A resident of Newtonian Gardens in New Jersey, he is a witch in the nontraditional sense: an explorer of consciousness, meditation, dreams, intuition, manifestation, and the strange territory where inner experience meets everyday reality. Accepting claims solely on the authority of a teacher, book or tradition isn’t in his DNA. His approach is experimental rather than prescriptive: he tries various techniques, observes what happens, journals, questions, and adjusts his practice accordingly. For him, witchcraft is a conscious practice of working with attention, intention, language, and intuition to explore personal transformation. He writes honestly about that ongoing experiment, sharing successes, failures, doubts, surprises, and unanswered questions here. He does not claim absolute answers as to what an experience means.
