No Idea

I spent the evening after work tonight listening to Arlo Guthrie.

Kulning is, as Jason Kottke describes, hauntingly beautiful.

So many good TV shows to watch and not time to watch them.

I totally think that Microsoft should bring back Windows Mobile and work with OEMs on creating phones again.

I just charged up my Nokia 530 from 6 years ago and the interface is still better than the grid of apps I have on my iPhone 6S.

Just out of curiosity.

Does anyone know of a Mb client for Windows? Or an app that is compatible with mirco.blog?

Backed. Analog

although I believe Ugmonk shouldn’t use Kickstarter as a preorder service.

I pulled my Pixel 2 out of the pile of old phones I have to see how it stacks up to my Pixel 4. Currently on the 4th security update install of the evening.

Somehow I fell into the habit of popping in a pod and making my morning coffee with the Keurig instead of grinding beans and making a pour over, Aeropress or french press.

I need to change that habit and go back to making good coffee instead of tolerable coffee.

I collect books, both digital and analog, that I want to read, but never get around to reading.

And I can not stop doing it.

Picking up two kittens in the morning. Just need to come up with names now.

Pepsi just tastes weird.

This article from The New York Times, How the Virus Won is devastating. No specifics, just an overview.

We could have saved thousands of lives in the US if we acted sooner.

Please wear a mask.

Whelp. The Pixelbook won’t start up now. It shows that it is fully charged - the green light is on when the usb-c is plugged in. But, the screen does not respond when opened and the keyboard doesn’t light up like it should.

I don’t have time to troubleshoot tonight though.

LIstened to the new Phoebe Bridges album Punisher and it is mellow and heartfelt. Definitely something I will listen to again. 🎵

Something to remember:

I always take comfort in the fact that even the great writers needed to pump themselves up to get to work.

Austin Kleon shares successful writer’s ways of encouraging themselves to write.

Don’t forget about the Microsoft Surface Duo in all the Apple hoopla.

Now that iOS has widgets on the home screen I have one question about Springboard.

Why does iOS require an app to have an icon on the home screen in the first place?

You can search for any app through search. What is the operational need to have an icon on the home screen?

Reality Test

Calls for defunding the police (which is often the majority of a city budget) are to give that money to the public schools and fire department and social services.

Suggesting otherwise is disingenuous at best.
