Two big recent self-hosting discoveries. First, the excellent BookOrbit, which has replaced Calibre, Calibre-Web, Komga, and Audiobookshelf in my stack. Second, Quartermaster, which can be found at www.qmstack.com, has completely blown me away across iOS, tvOS, and the companion container.

My daughter passed her driving test today and just like that I have a teenager with a learner’s permit. My goodness!

Canes win. Gators get blown out. Georgia Tech didn’t play. Great football day for your boy!

Man, what a drive. Needed that. Full credit to Clemson’s defense making this a challenge.

The universe hates Miami at the moment. We are dropping important players like flies. Unreal bad luck 🙁

My son turns 13 tomorrow. How time flies! He had a fun gaming party with his D&D crew this weekend, and his big gift was a new Framework laptop, which we assembled together before installing Linux, at his request. Good taste, that boy of mine!

Upon rewatch this is worse than a soft call. It’s so bad! bsky.app/profile/scot...

Theft in Denver. On to the next one, but I’m pretty livid. Nothing pisses me off more than officials that suck at their job changing the outcome of a game. Ugh.

The “but this time Meta seems different” crowd is at it again, doing their best impression of Charlie Brown attempting to kick Lucy’s football. No, I don’t want Muse. No, I don’t care how “cute” it is. I’ve seen this a dozen times and they always show their true colors eventually.

It sucks that 1-11 seems like a legit possibility for the Jackets this year… 🙁

Hey, Miami collective — Kamario Taylor would look great in orange and green. I’m just saying.

The USC defender that knocked out Dante Moore shouldn’t play again for a long, long time.

Worst officiating I’ve ever seen in my life. Theft of two amazing plays, including an absolutely elite one handed catch from Malachi Toney.

Started reading the Dungeon Crawler Carl series and am really enjoying it. Sorta reminds me of a cross between Hitchhiker’s Guide, D&D, and The Dresden Files. About halfway through book two already.

Also, NC State gave us one of the most impressive footguns in CFB history. 🤦

Today’s games are making me feel a bit better about Miami’s performance last night. They’re not the only team that allowed an inferior opponent stick around, and a few top teams were knocked off. Early in the season. Injuries are a huge issue, though…

1-0, but that sucked.

Caught up to live and I hate it. Should be absolutely destroying these guys. Sigh.

Solved my unskippable ad problem in the ESPN app. Wrote a little app that uses the Apple TV APIs to leap over each break when I tap a button on my phone. Suck it, ESPN.

I'm rethinking my approach to window management / workspaces. I have been using macOS' Spaces and Hammerspoon for years, but its clunky. I've settled on FlashSpace and Moom instead and I'm really liking it. Much more efficient and it works great for switching between local and remote sessions.

Discovered that if you connect two Macs using a Thunderbolt cable and set up a p2p network, Parsec at 5K is nearly undetectable for day to day tasks. Even when playing videos it’s solid.

If your home doesn’t have a Jolibee within a 10 mile radius you should probably just move.

A friend of mine works in AI and thinks bad things are about to happen. He sold his home and moved his family out the country. He said that if you own a home in a walkable San Francisco neighborhood near a taqueria with good veggie options, you should sell your home for super cheap right now.

If you’re a Tailscale user with Eero mesh, you may have noticed nodes on your tailnet constantly losing contact with the Tailscale control plane. I worked with Eero to diagnose and reproduce the issue and they’ve pushed a new firmware version that fixes the problem. You’re welcome ☺️

It's two days shy of two years since Oklahoma State last won an FBS game. And the Pokes just knocked off the No. 6 team in the country. God I love this sport.

Man, I’ve missed college football. Two top ten teams knocked off by unranked opponents, one of which had a double digit losing streak.

Goodness gracious.

Yeesh, Miami’s WR room is deeeeeep. True freshman Vance Spafford with an absolutely absurd TD catch while getting mugged by two defenders. Guy is probably 8th on the depth chart.

I pay ESPN for their streaming service. Just now getting a chance to watch the Miami game and am trying to catch up, but they have unskippable 3 minute ad breaks at every single opportunity. Such bullshit. I think I’m just going to cancel and stream from sketchy sources instead.

Hoo-boy, just seeing the Automattic drama. Not surprised…

My XTEINK X4 got me reading again. My new X4 Pro arrived last week. Great little device, and the addition of a front light and touch screen make it nearly perfect. Those pogo pins, tho…

Finished my re-read of Mistborn era one earlier this week. I had forgotten just how satisfying the ending is. It’s equal parts emotional, beautiful, and surprising. Everything fits together neatly and you’re left with a deep mythology of gods, forces in opposition, and harmony. 🤘🔥

Miami better beat Stanford by six scores to redeem week one…

Aaron Donald and Myles Garrett on the same DL is going to be wild. This has to be the best shot at a Super Bowl for the Rams since 2021.

There is one particular thing in Silo that I *think* they could do that would really redeem my biggest gripe with the season, so hopefully I’m right.

Jonathan LaCour @cleverdevil.io · 28/08/2026
Silo just dropped the biggest bomb in the series thus far. Cards on the table! Next week should be a fun one, and then it’s a race to the finish in the final season. Still don’t love some of the adaptation choices, but some of them are starting to make sense…

We took the Rivian to Carmax and got a super low offer. After some research I stumbled on BidBus.com and took a chance on selling via their auction platform. It was a phenomenal experience. (1/2)
