Watched Devs from thetvdb.com

Linn and I finished watching Devs last night and I’m currently listening to The Incomparable’s discussion of it. I need to think about this one and write more but as a whole I thought it was a very interesting premise that failed in the execution. And it was waaaaaaay too long. A two hour movie, or even a Black Mirror episode, would have been enough.

Replied to PESOS from Instagram? by Jeremy CherfasJeremy Cherfas (stream.jeremycherfas.net)

At last night’s online HWC we talked a bit about getting pictures in and out of Instagram, now that they have become so much stricter about the API. Getting images into Instagram except through approved apps seems to be getting harder and harder, and is probably impossible by now. Getting images out…

I haven’t used Instagram for a long time but for the last couple of weeks I’ve been trying to convince my fiancé to at least PESOS her Instagram posts to her old, inactive blog. This looks like a way that might be done. Thanks, Jeremy!

Shelves are finished! Hung using hand carved walnut dowels (always experimenting 😊).

@aa Good work! It looks really nice.

My wishlist for Micro.Blog:
* a way to load new posts but keep my place in the timeline. Every morning I have endless scrolling to see what folks posted overnight.
* default to the aspect ratio of an included photo, not to square.
* let the Mac app upload videos and sound files.

I agree with this, particularly the first one.

If you need to download other versions of macOS than the current major version, this is where you find the App Store links for those.

This will definitely come in handy more than once.

If too many people feel this way, the US will face four more years of Trump. Please, regardless of your feelings for Biden, remember what the alternative is. Hint: It is not four years of whatever your favourite is, unless the favourite is Trump.

@maique you know why? We want to get rid of the stuff but it feels wrong throwing it away 😜

@jemostrom I was going to write exactly the same thing. :)

I could have given him my old iPhone 6, but I decided to go a little less digital. Zane is fascinated by animals and creatures and nature in general. One of the ‘annoying’ habits he’s developed is asking us to ‘take a picture’ of bugs and beetles and ants. After the 200th fly or whatever i…

I think that was a good choice. I gave Iris, my five year old, a similar old Canon point-and-shoot and it’s amazing to see how she uses it. Clearly she’s been watching a lot of vlogs because she keeps going around the house and filming herself talking to an audience.

(This is a test, again.)

Posting from my old theme worked. Let’s post another reply on my blog to a post of micro.blog, this time with the new theme. Does this work?
