I quite love that my 50 year old vinyl Doobie Brothers album must necessarily be knocked out of a skip loop to keep going. Just needs a little pat. You can do it!

I do still hate stealing the music from our speaker when I leave the house and use car or headphone audio.

Yeah it’s great! We have a handful of aging Sonos speakers and an AV receiver that we use with it. It’s like comically better than the Sonos or HEOS apps. It looks like you can airplay to multiple speakers now so I’d probably just do that if i had newer gear.

Spotify connect is weirdly the killer feature for me. Need to see how tidal does this. I like that it doesn’t have podcasts and books (that I see anyway)

I was thinking of calling this holidates but i have been informed this is a Netflix hallmark movie. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holidate IDK. Seems like a point in its favor.

There does not seem to be a home assistant package for holiday seasons, like for showing spooky lights during the weeks before halloween. I wonder if I should make this but what if I get issues like “Christmas ends on new years day! Not new years eve!” Maybe someone has already figured this out.

Trying to set up Windows for a low tech family member and just disgraceful how many trials you have to skip on top of this account business. So many things they assume you have to buy because it’s suggested.

Picked up this Polish jazz album in a market stall in Krakow. Dang, what a find!

Self driving cars are such a cool technology, but I just was driven past by a certain electric car in a crosswalk intersection where the driver was watching a TikTok leaned back pretty far. Maybe it was totally fine. I’m just not ready for this at all.

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

On paper, I love that iOS auto complete and voice to text is more private. But changing my sentences last minute to a totally nonsensical result makes me stop caring for a second. I miss the days when I could slap away swipes on Google Keyboard, and it would just figure everything out perfectly.

Breaking: Our request for a temporary restraining order for the federal funding freeze was just granted. The freeze is now paused. Our case continues, and the restraining order is in effect until further notice.

For companies working on AI programming automation, how are they handling technical debt as product requirements change? To me, programming is often the easy part. Building something to meet the demands of a product team that changes over time is the real work.

The unifi set up was pretty straightforward for me and I wish I had done it sooner. Still need to put in cat6 though. I have a cat6 run to my office but some rooms still get 100mbps 😱. I should probably just pay somebody too.

I ever get a chance to work low enough in the stack to work on mobile keyboard input, I wanna make it so that pressing shift on a selection of a word capitalizes it. This is such a pain on mobile.

Whatever is going on with Muppets on here is just outside of my purview like the seedy underbelly of a downtown decorated with holiday lights.
