I missed that Proton VPN started offering a browser extension. On top of the Proton Pass that’s in beta, they are really hitting the nail on the head of new products I specifically want.
Growing up a Cardinals fan in St. Louis meant Mike Shannon was the soundtrack to your summer. So sad to hear about his passing. A baseball and St. Louis legend.
The Springfield Cardinals will wear Springfield Cashew Chickens gear. You better believe I bought a hat.
I grew up during peak cable TV, before channel drift took hold, so this video about why cable TV networks are all the same now was a fascinating watch.
I already use Proton’s services, so I’m excited to hear about the beta launch of Proton Pass.
Taking Play for a spin to manage video content I want to watch later. I love how simple and beautiful the app is. This will come in handy to track videos on YouTube I want to watch eventually.
I was browsing the Mac App Store and found Essayist, which looks like a really well-designed app. I have no use for this now, but I would have loved this in college. It would have saved me so much time as a History major.
The City Rising series on St. Louis City SC’s YouTube is great. It’s a really well-produced docuseries about building St. Louis City SC the club and the team.
I love that the random, weird internet is making a comeback.
The St. Louis Blues are a embarrassing hockey team. Not because they didn’t make the playoffs this year, though that’s pretty embarrassing, but not nearly as embarrassing as the cowardice shown here. Such a disappointment.
Harrison Ford has been excellent in Shrinking, but the scene between him and his daughter in episode 7 was so damn good. A punch in the gut.
Happy De La Soul day.
Joey Votto annotates his own oral history. If you’re a baseball fan and don’t like Joey Votto, something is wrong with you.
St. Louis City SC needs to up their web/media presence. It’s Monday and they have no highlights from their first game (and win) on their web site. Nothing on their YouTube channel. What is going on? MLB teams update as the games progress with highlights. MLS needs to do better.
I was getting ready to post a reminder that De La Soul’s albums will be available on streaming for the first time next week and saw the news that Trugoy the Dove died. So sad.
Proton has referrals now. That’s nice. If you’re looking for secure mail or a fast VPN, Proton is the way to go.
I’m just now getting around to listening to Snarky Puppy’s album Empire Central. I’m mad at myself for waiting so long. 🎵
T-Mobile is offering MLS Season Pass to subscribers. It’s a shame I already subscribed. I wonder if I can get it applied retroactively.
The extra-innings rule in baseball is one of the worst things to happen to the sport rules-wise in recent memory and it looks like it’s here to stay.
