So are we drinking during the "Spooky fast" event since it's at night? Asking for a friend...

For years now, I’ve rarely gotten SMS spam. But about two weeks ago I started getting 5-10 spam SMS texts per day, every day. They’re all crap like this, most of from those 5-digit short code numbers. Did I just stumble onto some sort of list, or is this happening to others suddenly too?

This week’s challenge is to “do something bloggy.” I’m really struggling I want something that supports BOTH Activity Pub and RSS.

Patreon’s posting feature is the furthest thing from the answer.

I also want something that allows posting from iOS. It seems like there were far more options even back in college when I called myself “a blogger and a writer” along with podcaster.

It's not perfect, but I am very, very happy with how the 5x camera on iPhone 15 Pro Max does at concerts.

5x > 2x > 1x > 5x

I completely missed this news last week. Forbes contributor Gordon Kelly, who covered Apple for years, has passed away after a five-month battle with cancer.

There's a surprising number of tickets still available for tonight's 1975 show in Fort Worth. Looks like at least 1,000 tickets still unsold…and they are significantly cheaper than when they first went on sale.

I don't think they are filling arenas on this tour except for the big east/west coast cities.

I love Chris Martin's story about one of the times he met Steve Jobs.

“I said to him, ‘I’ve got a point to pick with you. My G whatever it is is bust.’ He simply turned the power switch and it was fixed.

Then he charged me $3,000. So he was a businessman at heart and also a lovely fellow."

Whenever I’m stuck in traffic, I like to think about how I could solve the problems because of how much Mini Motorways I play.

Just move this stoplight, turn this into a roundabout, and so on.
