Finished reading: The Stone Child by David A. Robertson 📚 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were playing some music on my record player just the other day, and my kids were asking about how a record player actually works. As usual, @kottke.org is on it already.
Logic Pro is an amazing app for editing podcasts, but the fact that it’s loop library doesn’t have a good AirHorn FX audio clip is a travesty.
The question being asked: “Why was this specific person chosen over other people when you have to make cuts and layoffs?”
Church elders: “Hey watcha so upset about layoffs for? It happens all the time? Get used to it kid! I’m in business. I lay people off all the time.”
I love having a video recording of my consulting or potential client calls. Fire up a Riverside studio and meet a client there, take notes in Notion, and then I can embed the unlisted video from YouTube right inside a Notion document and send them everything. 🧑🍳💋
Happy 20th anniversary to Rogue Amoeba! Their apps have been instrumental in my podcasting & video production journey. Can’t wait to see what they do next.
“I love how there’s a lot more girls in this season.” - my daughter while we check out the new #Fortnite season skins.
Kid in hockey for the first time at 12yo thoughts: hockey doesn’t seem very newb friendly. There’s definitely an assumption you’ve been playing since you were 5. But we’re learning fast.
This could be great for people wanting forum style conversations, but with the ease of setting up a new Discord server - Discord launching forum channels.
Reason #203 why I love the internet: A tutorial video I published over 3 years ago was helpful to someone today. I didn’t make ad revenue, sell a course, sign anyone up to an email list - just showed how I do something so someone else could learn how to do something.
I’ve been following along with Micro.blog’s development from the beginning and I appreciate the slow and steady improvements being made to the platform. The v3.0 beta looks like it’ll be a nice update to their mobile app.
iOS 16 could’ve implemented this one setting for Photos and I would’ve said it’s a worthwhile upgrade. I’d never considered just using Shortcuts to automatically change orientation lock each time you open or close Photos. It’s brilliant.
One downside to running the public iOS beta all summer is it makes the today’s official release day a lot less exciting. At least there’s the annual iOS review by @viticci to dig into.
