Jan 21, 2021 Note Spotify is (was?) the best place to listen to music. It is, unequivocally, the worst place to listen to podcasts. They’ve spent hundreds of millions of dollars and their experience is the worst. I hope they are working on something great.
Nov 8, 2020 Note Worst iOS feature by far; you open an app and you’re no longer where you left off. 13 years in this should be fixed.
Nov 4, 2020 Note What I'm looking for in a note taking app: works exactly like Simplenote, except it saves Markdown files to disk. Does this really not exist?
Nov 3, 2020 Note I have an overwhelming number of personal technology tasks that I'd like to tackle that I'm not motivated to do any of them.
Nov 1, 2020 Note My iPhone updated itself to 14.1 last night on its own. I have never had automatic updates on. That is very weird.
Oct 14, 2020 Note At a stop light in Scranton, Pennsylvania around 5pm on October 13, 2020. Nothing glamorous today for Micro.blog’s A Day in the Life – just driving to get grocery pick-up.
Oct 13, 2020 Note No matter what Apple announces today, I hope the iPhone 12 proves to be a solid, reliable computing device for Eliza. Her iPhone Xs has given her a lot of issues over the last few months.
Oct 6, 2020 Note Unmark 2020.3 has just been released. It has been running on the hosted version for a little while but today it rolled out to all of you that run it locally. Enjoy!
Oct 2, 2020 Note If you own an Epson scanner you may be able to get Silverfast SE (a much more robust and quicker scanning software) for free. Get your serial number and go here.
Sep 29, 2020 Note Watching @adactio's screencast demo of a Huffduffer feature was a rollercoaster of emotions. He removed me, added me, removed me! I hope he added me! Good reminder to use Huffduffer again.
Sep 25, 2020 Note Me: Lay down for a late-afternoon nap out in the backyard. Apple Watch, a few minutes into the nap: Time to stand!
Sep 2, 2020 Note Sunlit seems like an excellent way for me to quickly post status updates that include photos to my blog from my phone. Something I wish I could do a lot more often than I do but WordPress simply isn't good at it. Excellent! Well…
Jul 23, 2020 Note When I first read that Slack was taking Microsoft to court I thought it'd be too much of a distraction for Slack. Reading Stewart's tweets makes me think they had no choice.
Jul 22, 2020 Note I think we may look back at many of the brand identities that Pentagram has redesigned lately as misfires. If you're going to remove all personality from a mark it needs to end up being iconic. They are hitting somewhere in the middle in…
Jul 21, 2020 Note If someone could please make ear hair fashionable you'd be saving me some of my precious morning time.
Jul 14, 2020 Note I feel like most people, including those that rail against Facebook, don't have the stones to quit Instagram.
Jul 9, 2020 Note Quicktime on macOS bug: Hover to display controls. Roll off on left, right, or bottom of window, controls disappear. Roll off on the top of window and controls remain.
Jul 2, 2020 Note I'm looking for recommendations on personal homesteading blogs. Something like @dejus' @yellowcottage. If you know of any, please let me know about them.
Jun 22, 2020 Note My wish list for this year's WWDC was pretty well accommodated today. Once we are a few releases into the public betas we'll know what we'll really get come the fall.
Jun 19, 2020 Note I'm still importing photos and this morning I will pass 100,000 photos added to the Photos for Mac Library (as referenced files). Still lots more to import. So far the performance of Photos seems to be holding up. I can't tag any photos right…
Jun 8, 2020 Note Over the weekend, Emulsive published my guest post in their 5 frames series. Subscribers to my blog will recognize the photos.
May 31, 2020 Note The last few mornings I've been toying with making a web UI for my photo script (and extending it into a full photo library management tool). I've hit a roadblock working with files using a web app. Not sure I want to write a…
May 21, 2020 Note Unmark version 2020.1 has officially rolled into master today. This is a huge milestone with tons of new features and improvements. It has been running on Unmark.it for months and purrs like a kitten. Unmark is still my favorite app I use every single…
