Good morning and happy Saturday!

It's the weekend so let's all comment below with our weekend plans and what we're all going to do.

For me, I'll be having lunch with my cousin and her two daughters and my wife. My cousin and I haven't seen each other since Thanksgiving, so that will be nice.

The rest of the day will likely just be relaxing and laying on the new couch to catch up on some TV shows we're behind on.

@cliffwade Question, is there a reason these are posting the night before? 😉

Anyways, good morning!

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy Huh? I believe I'm confused. Did I miss something? LOL

And yes, good morning, barely, but good morning! 🤪

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Do you have some of these scheduled?

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy Whoa! That is indeed weird. I posted it this morning at 7:31am EST.

Maybe it's some kind of bug with whatever app you're using?

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Yeah it is weird. I just check Mona and it appearing correctly. This was Ice Cubes.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy Interesting. Does closing it out of recents and going back to it fix it?

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade This isn’t the first post of yours that I’ve seen that’s been like this. I’ll have to ask the dev.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy Oh, gotcha. Is it just my posts, local timeline posts or others as well?

I don't have IceCubes installed to check anything on my end, but will do so later.

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Haven’t really checked.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@beardedtechguy This is from IceCubes on mine. Shows the correct timestamp here

beardedtechguy,
@beardedtechguy@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Weird indeed. I have checked my settings and can’t see anything.

@cliffwade Enjoy your day mate.
I just tooted:

Morning y'all.
Woke up early, made a #Coffee, and worked on some #FoodBank homework.
At 6:00am assisted my wife Arianna with her meds and ice-pack.
Completed my "homework", so going to put on my headphones, play music, sort the #Laundry, and make more Coffee.
That's my plan for Saturday.
What about you?

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@SolusSpider Thank you and I hope you enjoy yours as well.

Your day sounds eventful, but super fun and relaxing. Nothing better than coffee and music.

For me, I'll likely be having lunch with my cousin and her daughters and my wife. Other than that, not too sure quite yet.

@cliffwade Hi Cliff. For me and the whole family, it will be Engineer’s Day open house at UKY, showing off stuff to the public. Then an after party at a nice pub. Tomorrow we’ll be recuperating.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@JensHannemann Very nice. Sounds like a fun day and evening for sure. Enjoy the day tomorrow to rest and recover.

@cliffwade happy Saturday!!

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@tonysimons Same to you good sir!

What are your plans for the day?

Also, have you checked out any of the Mastodon apps? I know I mentioned Android ones the other day, but if you still use iOS at all, that's where the better apps are such as @MonaApp @mammoth @ivory and @IceCubesApp

tonysimons,
@tonysimons@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade @tonysimons @MonaApp @mammoth @ivory @IceCubesApp right now I just have the official iOS app. Are there reasons to use others?

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@tonysimons The others have TONS more options and features. The stock Mastodon app is pretty basic.

But of course the choice is certainly yours. Use what works best for you.

tonysimons,
@tonysimons@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade @tonysimons one thing I don’t care for about this app is I don’t get notifications. I may have to dig through the settings but they’re not turned on by default, which is curious.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@tonysimons Hmm, you should certainly be getting notifications. I use the stock Mastodon app on Android and get them though I disable them as I don't care too much about notifications.

I mainly use Mona and Mammoth on iOS and get notifications there just fine as well.

tonysimons,
@tonysimons@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade @tonysimons I just checked and they’re still on, but for some reason nothing in my notifications. I’ll have to check out the other two you mentioned.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@tonysimons Really weird. Maybe they are disabled on the web? Maybe check there?

tonysimons,
@tonysimons@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade already uninstalled and switched to Mammoth lol.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@tonysimons Ah, very nice! Mammoth is amazing. I also like Mona because it has themes that are easy to download and use. Just really a click of a link.

tonysimons,
@tonysimons@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade got a notification from this reply! Already a step up. 😂

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@tonysimons Very nice! That's what we like to hear!

@cliffwade today I believe the inlaws are coming over to watch the kids so my wife and I can get painting in the babys room.

I've got some shelves I am hanging up for some figurines I have from a Kickstarter, in my gaming area. Hopefully get that done today :)

It's supposed to not be great out today so probably an indoor day mostly.

Tonight, playing some LAD: Gaiden which I'm beelining through so that I can get onto Yakuza Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth :-)

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@exallium Nice! Enjoy the time with the in-laws, and nice of them to come keep the kiddos company while y'all get some work done. That's certainly a huge help.

I've never played any of the Yakuza games. They are mostly fighting games, right? If so, I've never been much of a fighting game person.

exallium,
@exallium@androiddev.social avatar

@cliffwade They're RPGs :-)

The combat depends on the game but is mostly like an action brawler. The newer ones (Like a Dragon and Infinite Wealth) are turn based.

There's also Judgment and Lost Judgment that are set in the same universe.

The Yakuza series is great. Imagine a very well written and performed Martin Scorcese film about the Japanese Mafia that gets interrupted every 30min by an episode of the Simpsons.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@exallium Ah, gotcha. Unfortunately you lost me completely at Scorcese as I've never been a fan of his stuff, and I've never watched a full episode of The Simpsons either.

I know, I'm a weird one, right? 🤪

@cliffwade breaking the new couch in right!

Not sure here, my mom is visiting for a little bit but my wife works most of the day. Will just be me and the kiddo.

Might try to introduce him to TMNT Shredders Revenge. He played one of the arcade games this week and really loved it.

cliffwade,
@cliffwade@allthingstech.social avatar

@heyfluxay I started the "breaking in of the couch" yesterday with a nice little 2 1/2 hour long nap!

Enjoy the time with your mom. Time with parents is precious!

TMNT games are so much fun. Glad he has discovered them and enjoys them.
