If you own a Juicebox EV charger, you need to read this

The chargers will still function, but with no app scheduling or remote access.

Any product with app support is a downside, IMHO, unless it's completely optional. The app for my adjustable bed is no longer supported nor is the one for my stereo receiver. My fancy bike taillight app stopped support in under two years from purchase. It now only works as a flasher. I have wall modules for lamps whose app works but is no longer available for download. There's the Sonos debacle too. I've been burned many times and now I'm a developer who despises apps.


I'm putting together a music portfolio page.

music.stefanbohacek.com

It's pretty basic right now, so I'd love to see what others have created for some inspiration.

@jak2k Thank you, really glad you enjoyed it!

And good catch, it is tagged now!

I was also going to say that I'm not too sure about the quality of the MP3s, but that you can get the WAV files off SoundCloud, and I just realized that you need an account to download files, and also, I was somehow under the wrong impression that Soundcloud automatically tags the files for you.

I have some cleaning up to do!



One of these days I’m going to do a write up on how I use Reminders, Numbers and Notes like an apple-native Notion.



Counterpoint, since HonorHealth is on Epic, my mother's various heart doctors actually coordinate with each other, and I have nigh-complete visibility into her plan of care. so maybe, just maybe there's a middle ground in there somewhere.

The way my stomach lurched reading this...

"In 2017, Luckey co-founded defense tech company Anduril, last valued at $14 billion ... He made it clear he had no hesitation about Anduril building weapons

“Societies have always needed a warrior class that is enthused & excited about enacting violence on others in pursuit of good aims ... You need people like me who are sick in that way & who don’t lose any sleep making tools of violence in order to preserve freedom.”

true and i know how the french people dealt with that 😈 jsut saying...



Yes, this *should* have merited news headlines, but the "mainstream media" instead mostly ignored Trump's "decomposition" (if this were Biden, they'd be going APESHIT!) bluevirginia.us/2024/10/wednes… h/t @atrupar @nberlat

I just love this woman's writing.

Are there actually places where you don't have to pretend to be a machine, though? I thought it was just hard everywhere. And getting harder.

#Listening to the Love Avatar album by Peter Gall;

What a treat. I put this on at random, after listening to a drum'n'bass compilation from the same label. Thinking I get some more liquid dnb action. But instead I got these playful, mellow, jazzy tunes, vaguely reminiscent of Cinematic Orchestra.

Highly recommended.

Mules are still at it, bringing food, water, supplies, ice, insulin.... LONG list... to people who are completely cut off by #Helene in #NorthCarolina. I can't possibly post all the info included on their page, but here's a screenshot of a recent update, and a link for those who might like to read more.

Candi Miller would have turned 43 today.

Under Georgia’s abortion ban, Candi avoided doctors, deciding to navigate an abortion alone. Her death is the second preventable abortion-related death ProPublica has found.

Candi grew up in Alabama and spent most of her adulthood in Atlanta, where she made a living braiding hair and doing nails. She had a soft spot for stray cats, nurtured a garden and was known to break into dance at the sound of old school funk like the Commodores.

Thank you, Kavitha Surana, for writing on this with such sensitivity and dignity. 🌸

To end the civil rights of 167 million American women, Republican billionaires will spend any amount of money & let women die.

Controlling the lives of women comes first for any despotic regime. Ceucescu.

thehill.com/homenews/campaign/…

The billionaires fear what happened to Ceucescu. This is what an abortion ban does to a nation.

Fantasy pirate adventure game Rogue Waters just came out with some release sales. Great aesthetics and tactical rogue-lite action from the makers of Hard West II.
