I picked up a new phone today. T-Mobile, in their infinite wisdom, thinks it’s a smart idea to text the phone number you’re activating in order to approve the activation. What a cluster fuck that was.

The YouTube app just started downloading videos without me asking. I have never used the feature. I never watch without internet access. Had to drill into setting to turn off settings that were turned on by default including auto downloading suggested content.

The YouTube iPad app keeps getting worse. Now, navigation buttons don’t even work half the time. Click Home, nothing happens. Click Shorts, a short’s audio start playing but black screen. Have to force quit the app.

Attempting to upgrade the OS on my Raspberry Pi. I’ve never done this before. Hopefully Pi Hole and Unbound come out fine on the other side.

i don't mean this in terms of hypocrisy, i mean it in literal, linguistic terms: what is this if not censorship by the state
not "what about!"
just this, taken on its own, wherein the government must approve what you teach adults. we literally have a word for it.

This is the second time since I’ve installed Zorin that the OS thinks I only have 9% battery left (it’s really 99% and fully charged). The system even says fully charged, but also reads 9%. If I unplug, it warns me that battery is low. Rebooting takes it back to 99%.

Playing around with the Zen browser again after not using it for a while. I think I may make it the default on my Zorin laptop for a while. I love that it uses Firefox’s engine and I can sign into my Firefox account and sync everything I need to.

One thing that channels does better than any other media server is the Virtual Channels feature. The problem is, other features rarely work with it. Can’t add streamlinked content to virtual channels. Can’t use Virtual Channels in the new multiview (or any personal media). So many caveats.

Channels had a pretty nice update. The multi-view is pretty looking. Unfortunately, it only works with live TV sources. My dreams of watching live sports, Seinfeld, Saved by the Bell, and Field of Dreams all at the same time will have to wait. I did get some sports channels added via EPlusTV though.

No rap songs are in Billboard’s top 40 for the first time since 1990. Now is ska’s chance to strike. The children yearn for ska.
