Heads up that the Logic Pro 10.7.2 update that came out last week seems to have some sort of plugin compatibility bug. Some projects are fine, others hang as soon as I hit play and require a force quit restart to work. #podcasters
Important notes from a client: “Maybe Chris can mix in the sound but like I open TikTok and all I hear is ‘Ehh eff your life! Joe Byron! Eff your life! Bing bong!’”

Another Xmas miracle: Apple Music now available on Google Nest speakers in more countries - Canada included.
The one thing that would get me to be supportive of web3 / crypto is if syncing of transactions between various banks and my invoicing system just works. 😂 😿
I hope all of you can someday know the joy of hearing a teenager shout at their friends while chasing down a llama together in Fortnite.
Finally our long international nightmare of not having a chronological timeline on Instagram might be over in 2022.
Whether you’re a business, solo contractor, or work for someone else - how often do you go through all the monthly / annual service you’re paying for to see what you’re actually paying for in the cloud?
You periodic reminder to any freelancers and solo business owners that you need to actually invoice your clients if you want to get paid for your work.
“Why is my bank account so low? What am I doing wrong?!” 😂
Micro.blog introduces email newsletter feature in a very Micro blog kind of way. I dig it.
A good sign that it’s time to do the laundry is the fact that the only shirt I have left to wear is for an expired domain name idea that now likely leads to a p0rn site of some sort.
I’m saddened by how much of search is driven by commerce. I also want businesses - especially small businesses - to be able to sell their products and services to people looking for them. So I’m torn, nor do I have an answer. End toot.

I always forget what’s new in macOS. This list is a good starter on what I’m forgetting to use.
Using Micro.Blog to Tweet Without Having to Get Sucked Into Twitter Drama
While reading @davatron5000’s recent Vibe Check, he mentions uninstalling Twitter for iOS as a way of avoiding temptation to get pulled in to the drama & arguments:
All the Web3 hype (as well as Politics Twitter) actually made me uninstall Twitter from my iPad and iPhone… and I kind of love it. I’m unplugged from the outrage machine and it’s much quieter. Stomping the urge to reinstall the app or log in from Mobile Safari for some dumb tweet is the hardest part, but I’m so far successful.
Which reminded me of how I (think I?) had set up Micro.blog as a way of posting to Twitter without having to actually open up Twitter. Might have to revisit this over the winter when I’m more likely to lay on the couch and mindlessly scroll Twitter instead of doing something moderately more productive with my time.
I’m not too drawn into politics or the outrage machine - for me it’s the social validation and interactions of posting a good tweet or photo, and then hoping for likes or replies.
Now let’s see where this post ends up. :)
I’ve been enjoying Mini Motorways so much, I recorded a very dry play through review type thing and posted it on YouTube.
