You want to know the grossest thing on any computing device that I own? This advertisement right here. Every time I see it, I want to stop using the device. I hope the bean counters feel that it is worth the brand erosion.

Angus and Malcolm Young hit guitar strings so fucking hard.

@gruber @Gte @hotdogsladies While I love it, Mark Hamill’s haircut screams 1977 to me.

I’m teaching myself Blender (following along with an online class) in the evenings and this is where I am currently. The sharks are circling.

@schwa That's the kind of lightheartedness that I would expect from you.

    @schwa That’s right up there with the folks who love the smell of their boyfriend’s colon (cologne).

    Like many people, I had my Apple ID locked last night, and it was a big hassle trying to get it unlocked and working again.

    One tip - when you go through all the rigmarole to get it going again, one thing that doesn't switch on by default is receiving iMessages or FaceTime calls via your Apple ID. So, like me, you will probably be missing messages until you reenable those in Settings. Also, if you send somebody a new iMessage it will default to your phone number which may not be what you want.

    @schwa I prefer to classify those sorts of learning experiences as investing in myself. I have invested a lot in myself.

    @schwa Confirmed extremely useful. Especially for van builds.

    My office is Jessica's plant staging area for now, as well as the dumping ground for my retro computers, but I at least got a semblance of a workstation going this morning with all of the basics. Big part of feeling like home. 🏡

    @matthewcassinelli Thanks! And no, but I've been meaning to write about it as well as my general computing setup. I'll take this is a nudge to do so!

    @schwa Speaking of woodworking projects sandwiching layers, I have it on my todo to make one of these and was just thinking about it again yesterday: https://www.evilmadscientist.com/2011/555-footstool/

    incanus,
    @incanus@mastodon.social avatar

    @schwa Yeah, I noticed that. I just told myself I’d do it when I'm all out of other projects. 😏

    @schwa Try lots of -vvvvv flags on the client. Usually turns something up.

    hears fun sound

    “Heh, that’d be a great ringtone”

    remembers his phone hasn’t been off of Silent in 15 years

    incanus,

    @clarko I think about that when I see a movie or TV clip with a cool, futuristic sound effect. But same thing, for phone and watch, for about as long.

    @incanus@mastodon.social avatar

    @matthewcassinelli @clarko Wouldn't be the first soundboard of my career.

    I hate how some users in your @SlackHQ DM’s fall off the list if they’ve not been active for a period of time. I wish you could get info on a person and add a pref so that they ALWAYS displayed in the list no matter what. I constant have to search for a user that’s disappeared and manually re-add them to the main DM list. Super annoying.

    @gedeonm @SlackHQ Not sure how much of a keyboard shortcut person you are, but Cmd-K is great for this.

    Rising question at DOJ antitrust circles: if it’s fine for third parties to run their own app store on iPhones, why can’t they run their own operating system as well?

    incanus,
    @incanus@mastodon.social avatar

    @gruber @Gte @counternotions Yeah, I think it was Mandrake, a distro based on Red Hat at the time (~2000 or so).

    I’m trying to figure out where exactly The Decemberists recorded Picturesque, and not finding anything beyond “Prescott Church”, which isn’t super helpful since there isn’t a place called that and Prescott had several churches.

    Maybe someone from can help me?

    incanus,
    @incanus@mastodon.social avatar

    @collin Haven't been able to figure out which one yet, but it was a former Baptist church: https://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=1370303

    incanus,
    @incanus@mastodon.social avatar

    @collin Seems fairly likely that it could have been 6701 NE Prescott based on church turnover there.

    incanus,
    @incanus@mastodon.social avatar

    @collin More likely: 602 NE Prescott, current home since 2008 of Portland Playhouse, last used as a church in 2005 and then bought by a private owner to live in.
