  Trying out a new 2024 theme I've started working on. It's not super clear yet where a new post begins, and it's a bit bland. #lamb #projects

  Bandcamp celebrated their 40th birthday last month by removing its most useful feature, it's no longer a BandCamp Friday every month!

  Most mobile “games” are like being a Sponsor on the Hunger Games: spend money dropping in some booster food for the contestant, who you have no control over. Is it time to reclassify these premium currency manager apps under the Finance category they belong to? Using their family's credit card, it's training multiple generation of kids to become hedge fund managers gambling their own future. My review of NASCAR Manager: 0% interest gained #games #iap

  Tried 1Password for SSH keys and Git management (keys in 1Password, authentication via agent + desktop prompt before access, and 1Password must be running) and not a fan of more red tape around the SSH keys. Non-interactive processes just fail to use the key first-time round, so I ended up having to commonly do operations twice. Easy restore from a BackInTime backup. #security #linux

• Navigate Xbox Series console using LG remote

  To navigate an XBOX series games console using an LG Magic Remote, first disable the Automatic Configuration option in the Connection settings under HDMI Configuration in the TV's settings. Reconnect the XBOX's HDMI cable going into the TV. Then on the input switcher, edit the Xbox setting, mark it as a Blu-ray player manufactured by Microsoft, and follow the wizard. #technology

  Looking at my browser tabs, I can't believe that we collectively have still not standardized on page title vs site title formats in 2024. I've seen SITE - PAGE, PAGE / SITE, PAGE | SITE, SITE: PAGE, PAGE etc. I'd prefer it if we had a sitetitle tag in head and let the browser figure it out. #technology #html
