  • Gmail is getting really bad at spam recognition. They used to be the best but I guess spammers have learned Google’s techniques. I get 2-3 spam emails in my inbox each week now. I never used to get any.

  • Live activities in the MLB app are pretty cool.

  • The Home tab of YouTube keeps recommending the same videos I’ve already watched over and over. It’s like it is not remembering what I’ve seen, but they show up in my history, so it knows I’ve watched them. Going on for weeks now, making YouTube incredibly less useful. Time to cancel Premium?

  • 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.

  • Wasn’t expecting this.

  • Happy De La Soul day.

  • Pedro Pascal being on The Mandalorian and The Last Of Us at the same time is exactly like when Ed McMahon was on Star Search and TV’s Bloopers & Practical jokes. Two phenomenal careers! - Andy Daly

    I love Andy Daly’s humor so much. 

  • Apple isn’t making it easy to figure out how to watch a full MLS game that has already been played instead of the recap. Hint: if you scroll down to the How to Watch section of the match it’ll give you an option to watch full or recap.

  • 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. 

  • My experiment with using the stock iOS weather app has come to an end. The radar map rarely works. Back to Carrot.

  • I hate when Apple does this shit. A badge in the settings app that can’t be dismissed.

  • 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.

  • I cannot wait for the third season of Ted Lasso. It begins March 15 and Apple has released a teaser.

  • 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.

  • AMC is ensuring I never return to theaters.

    AMC will charge more for better seats
  • TIL about Morganna. How have I never heard of her before?

  • I was walking the dog in cold weather and didn’t want to take my gloves off to start a podcast from the beginning in Overcast. First time I tried asking Siri to “start the podcast over” and was shocked to find out it worked flawlessly.

  • I hate living in Missouri. Ballot candy will work for GOP voters because they are frightened racists afraid of whatever Fox tells them to be afraid of this week.

  • Now listening to the album Mezzanine by Massive Attack 🎵

    I forgot how great this album is.

  • I just love how my work calendar keeps switching colors in the Calendar app on iOS and the Apple Watch complication. Just does it on its own.

  • If this impacts people who get Netflix through their phone carrier on a family plan, I’m out. You don’t have to all live in the same house to have a family plan. What difference does it make as long as you’re not going over your simultaneous screen limit?
