I ranted a bit on another network about an internet article listing their preferred “best electric tea-kettles.” The gist of my rant was the use of the word “tea” in such context.
A tea-kettle is just a kettle with a pretentious name.
Wankers.
@matigo Shifty Jelly (devs) were bought out a bit over a year ago by NPR, other public radio stations and This American Life.
Weird. Notified via email that PocketCasts Web & Desktop apps are going to a subscription model while mobile apps remain free.
Email said that since I’d paid for the Web Player in the past, they’re giving me 3 years worth of Pocket Casts Plus at no extra charge.
Poor accounting on their part. I’ve never paid PocketCasts for any sort of access, ever.
FUN FACT ! If you lose a sock in the tumble dryer, it comes back as a plastic Tupperware lid which doesn’t fit any of your containers…
Doing a presentation at a Mac User Group today, I was showing off some POC Mac tricks using a 2005 G4 PowerBook, connected to the video projector via a mini DVI to HDMI adaptor.
With that done I realised I couldn’t connect the MacBook Pro to the projector as I’d left the right adapter at home. I was already sharing the wifi to the PowerBook over Ethernet from the MBP so I went onto settings on the PowerBook and used it to screen-share to the MBP.
I was able to choose which screen to display on the connected projector by minimising the screen share app onto the G4’s Dock, leaving the G4 as the video source. Maximising the screen share app then showed the MBP as the source.
I found the missing USB-C to HDMI adaptor when I returned home.
@hybotics Sadly, in my experience, very few. The kicker is the experience part. They prefer to indoctrinate a new “qualified” person rather than getting an experienced one to unlearn things.
@jws Reference there to Apple’s original digital stills camera.
