I think this is a valid question: can’t we make sure the perforations included for sizing a paper towel actually requre less force than randomly tearing bits of paper off of the roll? Toilet paper people, I’m looking at you, too.

I’m worried about home sharing of media via Apple Home Sharing.

I’m running a lot of beta software so this might be premature, but my MacBook isn’t sharing movies I have purchased and downloaded from Apple.

I’m speculating the future will be all cloud and only cloud.

I did not expect the snow. But it is Minnesota so here we are.

#

Printer wanted yellow ink. Would not print without. Ordered and installed yellow cartridge. Printer still won’t print now because it’s out of cyan and black. So I’m ordering those and magenta.

May I suggest, as your support person, that your project includes discussion of user experience up front? Addressing the user experience after the project is complete will cause pain in your organization.`

Scheduling conference rooms seems like it should be a no-brainer. Introduce any technology, however, and now you have nuance—and long, recurring discussions about who can and can’t, and how to make it as simple as possible, but not simpler.

#

The plan of Political Action Committees seems to be: put more attack ads in the middle of unrelated programming. It isnt helping. We deserve better. I don’t care about candidate endorsement. I don’t trust the propaganda of any political party. I do listen and watch and vote.

“Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts,” Mead said.

#

Advocate for your child. It may not be your kid, it might be the system they are in.

It is a sad truth but hard to accept: well-meaning people may be the problem.

I have an irregular habit of building artist discography playlists. Tonight’s quick project was the U2 I have collected. I am consistently and continually amazed at how a series of songs will bring me back to experiences I had forgotten about from times in my life long past.

#

Complaints aside about picking up where I left on on MacOS, I’m glad I have my MacBook back. Using a Mac is just as lovely as ever.

#

Getting to engage with a fresh install of MacOS, not restoring from backup as I have been working with and relying on iCloud, iCloud Drive and Music Match. Gosh. Syncing back just the meta data for file archives or music libraries takes a while and is not all automatic

Which reminds me: All progress bars lie.

Grateful for AppleCare replacing a damaged display. Clean start with the hard drive wiped for service, but I forgot how for back the original OS was. Currently hammering my internet connection and watching progress bars

Did you ever have a day at work where you came face to face with change, where the documented processes in the knowledge base are simply wrong because the tools and access needed are different? Today was that day for me. Top to bottom.

Tips in-app on the Apple Watch. Well played! And thank you.

Executive Dysfunction: Spending time looking for my coffee only to conclude that I drank the coffee and threw the cup away at some point previously. Hypothesis confirmed by seeing the paper cup in my trash can.

Advertisers, this is Gen X speaking: Yello’s Oh Yeah was overused by the mid-90’s (the late 1900’s, as the kids on TikTok say). At this point it’s making me look the other way out of spite. There’s other, awesome music. Try a little?

Sirius XM 1st Wave is killing it tonight.

I’ve had the software for a long time. Maybe now it’s time to see what I can do with it.

When you find more music from an artist whose albums you have loved and it makes you yppah because it’s just as good
