New blog post Whose Story is it Okay to Tell?
The collection of 6 Transformers movies + Bumblee is on sale at AppleTV for $25CAD. That’s one series I haven’t “forced” my kids to watch yet. I can decide if it’s worth it. 🤔 😆
If you’ve been eyeing up any of Rogue Amoeba’s audio apps for Mac, they’re running a great promo I can really get behind where you get 15% off in their store using the discount code “CHRISROCKS” 😆 (it’s to celebrate an employee, nothing to do with me of course.)
“After his surgery, you’ll need to make sure Neville doesn’t run or jump for the next 10-14 days.”
Sure! No problem. I’ll definitely do that with my 60lb 1 year old dog. 😆
I decided to split off my random #Fortnite gaming into it’s own YouTube channel instead of confusing ppl looking for podcasting tutorials on my main one. So subscribe to @GamingWithALemon on YT. (Nothing changing on Twitch)
Ok fine, my boss is forcing me to play some #Fortnite on the old streamer machine for a break. Going live on Twitch.
The ShopTalk Show Discord gave me an idea for a new podcast based on the premise that people—developers in this case—need to meet more actual mediocre white guys in order to boost their own confidence, and realize how little some people know who keep getting promoted. 😆
Finally watched the finale of Win Or Lose (Disney+ 8 episode series), and I really recommend checking it out particularly if you have kids and want a vehicle for talking about emotion, stress, anxiety and the challenges of life.
Has anyone else had Messages on macOS suddenly forget every connection to names in your contacts? If I go in and edit someone’s phone number—even without changing it, just clicking edit and then done—it suddenly updates Messages with their proper name. Weird bug.
Tim Cook gifting Trump a custom made gift is wild. I’m shocked at how one of the world’s richest companies has to kiss the ring and humiliate themselves like this.
TIL there are people who set up groups with strangers to share the price of an Apple One bundle. That’s a level of IT admin / bill sharing I can’t imagine doing.

Side-eyeing the Xbox in my office as it updates with the new #Fortnite season while focusing on the work I need to get done.
I played a bit of Fortnite’s “Festival Main Stage” (think Rock Band or Guitar Hero style) game mode last night, and I don’t understand why Epic hasn’t started selling guitar and drum controllers again. It feels like a new generation is ready for them.
New blog post: Ghost v6
I don’t play much from Apple Arcade these days, but I do enjoy The Emoji Game on Apple News+ so the bundle is worth it?
I’m sure it’s a coincidence that Riverside tries to tack on podcast hosting to their services the same week that a client has a recording be the most out of sync (video to audio) that I’ve seen in years… but it’s sure not building a lot of confidence for me with their app.
Nice touch by Micro.blog to offer free blog hosting for teachers and nurses - and not just in the United States.
I really dig this idea: If you’re remote, ramble. Gives people a place to post to a team without feeling like they have to figure out which channel stuff goes in, and people can turn notifications on or off as needed. It wouldn’t scale to large groups, but it could? (Via ShopTalk Show Discord)
