  1. In case this place burns down, my contact info will always be up-to-date on benad.me/links.html or benad.me . I'll explore Mastodon servers this weekend.
  2. I'm staying here until the servers crash. I was on Twitter when it was based on SMS and its web version was an afterthought.

  9. Turned on IPv6 on my Nest Wifi on @TekSavvyBuzz VDSL and it actually worked?! Various IPv6 test sites show my IPv6 address and perfect “test scores”. Is this the future?

  19. I installed the @rememberthemilk iPhone app exactly 10 years ago today. It's the first iOS app I ever downloaded, and still using it.

  24. I wish @audible_ca would offer yearly subscriptions (with rebate) in Québec. I think I'll just "gift" to myself a 12 months subscription every year.
  25. This Apple Watch update for @audible_ca is completely broken. Can't control the audio from watch anymore. Watch app crashes if trying to play uploaded audiobook. Has anyone tested this? @audiblesupport
  26. Blog Post: A Eulogy for Small Phones s.benad.me/2MD10qi
  27. Second time this week I lost running water, without warning, on 30 C days. Guess I'll buy bottled water and call 311. @LePMR

  31. So I guess @CraveTVCanada doesn't work today (can't login with Crave account). Is that what we're paying $2 extra per month for? Can't remember last time I had Netflix login issues.
  32. All Bluetooth headphones that charge with USB should support USB as a digital audio source. My Sennheiser PXC 550 is the 1st BT headphone I've used that supports it, and it's amazing. Lossless digital end-to-end.
  33. Blog Post: Watching YouTube and Twitch with MPV s.benad.me/2Iryf1w
  34. So I had to reinstall a bunch of @StandardNotes extensions to make them work again. Listed Action was missing, and after reinstall I lost the @benad user name on listed forever. This is still horribly buggy. Waste of money.
  35. Blog Post: Those Games About the Creed of Assassins s.benad.me/2GngyMm
  36. So my YouTube suggested video list is now full of clickbait and contrarian titles. Like a reviewer who wrote a bad review to a Rotten Tomatoes 100% score. Or “The Top X Worst” you can guess a mile away. Hey, at least no video of dead corpses found in the woods. Yet.

  39. On Ubuntu 16.04, just ran “less file.pdf”, expecting the raw data. Pleasantly surprised to see formatted text instead.
