Thanks to Michael Tsai I know that the US government keeps detailed stats about who visits government websites.

GROWTH IS PAINFUL. CHANGE IS PAINFUL. BUT NEITHER IS AS PAINFUL AS STAYING SOMEWHERE YOU DON’T BELONG.

Sometimes the FH hits too close to home.

Which is worse?

  • Google collecting data to sell access to my information so companies can place ads I’ll see.

  • Verizon selling my physical location to a 3rd party with no checks and balances in place to stop anyone from paying a broker $200 to find my physical location.

Punditry Double Standards

Michael Tsai sharing thoughts on the Netflix not supporting Airplay anymore hulabaloo shows me there are just some people cough cough Marco Arment who see Apple and other companies in a completely different light.

Netflix is a perpetrator in bullshit for not supporting a standard they don’t feel like they should support because of their business reasons.

Change Netflix to Apple in that previous sentence and you will be hard pressed to find an Apple pundit on the internet who will agree with that.

Why would Congress make it illegal for the IRS to create a free tax file system? Because TurboTax and H&R Block told them to. Murica! Where the super rich and corporations run the government while we all freak out about electric cars.

Super excited that my pen/notebook holder arrived from Dudek Modern Goods!

It looks amazing.

Pan fried brussel sprouts are amazing. I need to make them more often.

Made some grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch today.

Awe, man. You mean I had access to Blades a week before anyone else, but I procrastinated on creating an account so I haven’t tried it yet?

My eternal technology delima

The people who make things that I like use Apple products and make their things for Apple products, but I do not use Apple products.

The kicker is some people talk about how inclusive their things are.

They say the noise causes cancer.

  • Donald Drumpf.

I. I. I just have no words.

Where did figet spinners go?

I remember seeing them everywhere like 6 months ago. Now they’re just … gone?

Man, fads and novelties change so fast now.

Overheard in a YouTube video today:

1998 is a good example of a vintage year.

I’m shacking my head over here. 1998 wasn’t that long ago.

Checks calendar. Oh, it was 20 years ago. Seems like yesterday to me.

When I worked during the day I was thankful when all of the MLB games were night games.

Now that I work during the evening I wish we can go back to the time when all MLB games were day games.

At least it’s baseball season again.⚾

Now is not the time.

When is the time?

How about never? Does never work for you?

It’s 2019 and you still have to have every app that is installedon hyour iOS device on a homescreen? Why? There’s spotlight search to find stuff. Springboard needs to be redone. There should be no reason for folders on your homescreen unless you want tthem on the home screen.

Air Power is dead. Long live Air Power.

Knowing that you want to make changes does not mean that you will make changes.

You have to put in the work to get anything out of it.

Somewhere in the last twenty years I lost my aversion to pop music.

I should know better by now, but I can’t stop myself.

I just have to look at Chromebooks, 2-in-1’s, and laptops even though I do not need to buy anything new.

I call it window shopping. But, now I want to buy something new just because I’ve been looking at devices.
