I know that no network is perfect but I continue to be impressed with Micro.blog. I don’t feel like I’m wasting time here. It feels calm and genuine—free of the advertising and garbage that piles up elsewhere. Most of all, I love that people actually respond here; this is communication.
It is so hot in the office today; the word ‘torturous’ comes to mind.
Natasha and I discovered a gigantic huntsman above our bookshelves last night. Unfortunately, it escaped the wrath of our Dyson and hid itself successfully. I’m hoping that it has gone for good by the time that I arrive home from work today, although I don’t like my chances… 😥
Bohemian Rhapsody is absolutely brilliant… incredible casting, awesome soundtrack and unbelievable attention to detail. You can tell when people who were part of the history (Queen members, in this case) were involved in the process as consultants. It’s easily the film of the year.
I loved that you kept the dog sounds in your most recent podcast episode, @gruber.
There’s an Irish accent available for Siri?! Switching now…
The ability to assign shortcuts with text phrases for podcasts in iOS 12 is fantastic. I would often ask Siri to continue playing a certain episode but it wouldn’t always select the right one. It’s much easier to assign a natural custom phrase in the new system and have it just work!
AirPodLess
Today I experienced what is quite possibly the worst first-world problem ever: forgetting to take my AirPods to work. Each day, I make sure to take my lunch outside, so that I can enjoy the sunshine and go for a walk. These walks invariably involve listening to podcasts such as The Talk Show, ATP, Revisionist History and shows by Relay FM. I realised that I had left my AirPods at home as I went to the microwave to reheat my leftover gnocchi for lunch.
