New on the blog: Apple TV+ Needs a Button.
Somehow I missed that Apple TV+ has a Murderbot series in production, with Alexander Skarsgård set to star.
In an alternate universe, @ultranurd@tacobelllabs.net and I are still complaining about the lack of Apple TV updates on an episode of 25c.
A simpler phone screen time system would be if it would only unlock all the time suck apps once you completed the Wordle, Connections, or Quartiles. Or maybe all three?
It feels like the notifications are tuned a little high in Quartiles on Apple News. My wife sat down and started after me and it notified me she had beaten my score even though we were just starting. 😝
Oooh Pocket Casts (my podcast app of choice) added a browser extension so you can subscribe on the web and have it easily show up in your app later. Nifty.
It’s been a while since I’ve added a new podcast to Apple’s Podcasts Connect site manually. Is it normally a 2-3 day process? I’m just trying to get my Micro.blog podcast feed in there which works fine.
The USA is so bonkers. Trump’s donation website apparently crashed because of so many people trying to donate to him after he was convicted of 34 felonies.
Forget Dolby Atmos surround bass booming, I need the best speaker for listening to poorly edited podcasts in the shower?
I started the day off by being frustrated at my kids for staring at phones instead of making their lunches and then spent an hour staring at my phone instead of making my work.
So… there’s that. 😪
