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.

Maybe someone has already figured this out.
Claude has become a lot more cursey lately! It said that it fucked up the other day when I kept telling it not to change spacing in some code.
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.
“Are you sure this is Janet Jackson? Sounds like Tears for Fears”
“Oh, set the RPMs to 45”
Who’s house has this glowing rock. Let’s go down the list!
But we don’t have a break room because we’re full remote. This is where the dream turns into a nightmare.
Polish Jazz record with bubblegum pink and electric teal disks.
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.

The lack of hustle my dog has in the morning is admirable.
