Say hello to BMBX, a casual internet radio app with a listener-focused design that keeps music front and center.

Now available on the App Store! 🚀

BMBX respects your privacy. Everything is stored locally, and stations are optionally synchronized across devices through iCloud.

Post AI-apocalypse career options I invested in today:

• HVAC repair

• Electrician: ceiling fan replacement, ZWave controller install

• Electrician 2x: smoke detector central power repair (apparently NEVER worked in this house) 🫠

• Garage door track cleaning and lubrication

• Lawn mowing in 96°F (not advised)

• Dryer disassembly + item recovery (a weighted blanket ripped open and spilled its weight beads, turning the dryer into a maraca)

Does anyone know how other radio streaming apps like Broadcasts and Triode that support discovery features get around App Store Guideline 5.2.3?

My first submission of BMBX was rejected for the following reason:

"Your app contains content or features that may violate the rights of one or more third parties. Specifically, your app provides potentially unauthorized access to third-party audio or video streaming, catalogs, and discovery services.”

@stroughtonsmith thank you 🙏🏼

Dare I ask how difficult CarPlay entitlements are to get? 🥴

Looking for some feedback from folks.. I'm experimenting with migrating a project to Astro. On paper, the site is a great candidate - content-focused (blog, articles) looking for lighter client experience and better dev experience. https://astro.build/

I have a CMS wired up and have started migrating a couple React components. What gotchas are hiding deeper in this project? Where are the common pitfalls with Astro?

(🚀 appreciated)

@thaddeus It’s a better bet to use Ethernet with these as the wired standards haven’t changed as much.

If you use Google Chrome, do this immediately:

  • Open a Finder Window
  • Click on Applications in the sidebar
  • Locate and select Google Chrome
  • Press ⌘+Delete and then empty the trash.

Seriously, if you're constantly playing settings and privacy whack-a-mole with your browser, you’re in a bad relationship

It’s pretty fun to get a used cartridge and see what the saves on it might be. This copy of DX is going to be a birthday present for one of the kids.

Sorry I crushed your score, Jason 😂

@chkuendig they’re usually a coin-style battery. This one seems to still work - but I’m planning to replace it

My arrived today. Its simplicity and power is just mind-blowing.

We broke it in properly with my Dr. Mario cartridge.

@thaddeus I has been my go-to for playing Game Boy games... and for playing games via open source cores and engines. I still like the form factor of the DMG Game Boy but being able to play a lot more games while being properly pocketable is a win.

I need a browser plug-in that removes Medium posts from search results, because hitting a paywall on esoteric programming blogs is soooo frustrating.

doney,

@thaddeus @marioguzman This is built into Kagi, have you given it a try? I have nothing but positive things to say about it; only search engine with results as good as Google + more features https://kagi.com/

@doney @thaddeus @marioguzman Yup, @thaddeus, you can add certain domains to your blocklist (so they don’t appear in search results), boost them, or pin them to the top. Really useful.

I picked up a few and carts at D-Pad in New Braunfels, TX today. The store is pretty awesome - lots of good games across the 8 and 16 bit eras.

We’re planning to test out the NES Four Score this weekend as a family 🏐⚽️

Example 233,130 of broken healthcare in America:

We're now repairing our son's feeding equipment with zip ties, because our monthly ration breaks before we're allowed to replenish.

It's not stressful at all.
