Thanks so much! Minecraft has definitely been a positive influence on our son too

My Instagram feed is full of drummers playing Stewart Copeland drum grooves. I am happy with this current algorithm.

It uses a combination of PWM and DC, but I don’t know the PWM frequency unfortunately.

John Higgins @johntmhiggins.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

I'll see if I can find out definitively, but I'm gonna guess PWM since both the Bravia 7 and Bravia 9 (original versions) use it, and this is really still a LED TV, just with individual red, green, and blue. So the dimming tech will likely be the same.

If you mean while also building this, then yes, you are correct.

Time for a cold proof so they’ll be ready for baking on Christmas morning!

Not sure that was me, as I talked about TVs during the episode I was on. Maybe @vicmsong.bsky.social has an idea

Our next free-for-today-only story is from @johntmhiggins.bsky.social: Auracast is built into many headphones, TVs, and phones. So why don’t manufacturers talk about it?

In college, my roommate and I used to groove around the dorm room when the opening credits music started.

That’s good to hear, and it sounds like they’re making the effort to get all of them working properly with Auracast (including 3rd-party compatibility).

Goddamnit. Now I want wine, whiskey, and cookies. That was the takeaway, right?

Poor and Plastic Surgery. Not sure how those two will happen together. Unless the second leads to the first, I guess.

Picking up some drinks at Starbucks and Doobie Brothers’ Black Water is on but only one channel is working so the end a cappella section sounds so bare.

How you know you work in tech: when you get an email saying “You could save this much in Windows renewal” you immediately think it means a Windows OS update as opposed to windows for your home.

Especially earlier in the match, but I’m chalking that up to getting comfortable on the stage maybe?

It eventually morphs into “you’ll hurt yourself if you do that!” which is basically the exact same thing just different words.

We got Neil an Apple Watch for his birthday. He just opened it yesterday and now I get these amazing messages at unexpected times.

Did…did you misspell “bourbon?”

Do what you need to do! We’re still all your friends. Hell, maybe it’s a good excuse to finally see each other in person again and have some bourbon! Team Bourbon Unite!

It’s so damn good! One of the few games of the past couple years I’ve put the time in to completely finish. A couple of the side quests are so disturbing and mesmerizing. Projekt RED does that so well. They could be primary game plots on their own.
