My Pluto TV playlist that I hooked into Channels stopped working. Docker to the rescue.
I will miss Joey Votto in baseball.
Tried using Threads for the first time today. Can’t get past the login screen. I choose my Instagram account and it kicks me back to the login screen. App deleted.
I’m so excited Paul F. Tompkins is in season 2 of Very Importantant People.
Breaking is my new favorite Olympic sport. Love to see how far the culture has come.
I don’t understand all the hate for the new version of Overcast. I have a couple of minor quibbles, but I think it’s a good update. That being said, Marco’s attitude towards customers in the last couple of ATP episodes feels quite dismissive and condescending.

Dear Microsoft:
There will never be a day in which I want to group tabs. Stop forcing it on us. So fucking annoying.
Sincerely, Everyone
Nintendo should make an Animal Crossing/Disney Dreamlight Valley type game that is Zelda/Hyrule themed. 🎮
Things I like This Week: Week 3
Here are the things I liked this week.
- Superman is partly responsible for the existence of the Hubble Space Telescope.
- Joe Buck and Chip Caray were in the booth for a Cardinals game this week. Great to hear Buck calling Cardinals games again and loved hearing them talk about Harry Caray and Jack Buck.
- If you want to subscribe to a Newsletter via RSS instead of email, Kill the Newsletter may be the service for you. They give you a unique email address and generate an RSS feed from anything emailed to that address.
- Talk to Someone (Anyone) by Roman Bürki
- The Olympics
I’m pretty sure the Olympics are gaslighting us. There can’t possibly be that many tennis events yet that’s all that is ever on.
Instagram served me an ad for a $19,000 record player console. They are wildly overestimating my spare income. I can’t think of a single other thing in my house that costs that much.
There’s a Batman serial from 1943. Every 15 minute episode revolves around Batman and Robin being horribly outmatched and losing in a fight. They haven’t won a fight yet. No Bat gadgets. Not event a grappling hook. I haven’t made it to the end yet.
I wish there was a web-based version of Apple News and/or Apple News+ where you can log in and get your recommended articles and magazines when not on an Apple device.
Anyone else getting their commercials interrupted by 2 minutes of Olympics coverage, or just me? Poor advertisers are losing valuable airtime to actual sport.

Now playing Pearl Jam - MTV Unplugged
Universal Control just quit working between my Macbook and iPad. I’ve tried every solution I could find and nothing works. It was a feature I used daily too. So annoying. Anyone else run into this?
Are ropes on hats really back in style and why? I wasn’t a fan in the ’80s. Still not a fan.
