Perhaps Teabag Style walking will be the 2023 health fad?
What happens happens. And then we are gone.

Let’s all sign up. Let’s all blog! Bring Back Blogging.
Speaking of logging in all the time, I have two different Apple TVs that daily are asking me to either log in with my Apple ID or log in to apps, such as Netflix. Sometimes restarting the Apple TV “resolves” it. I just keep logging in all the time forever. Restarting always.
Whenever I need to visit a web service I feel like I spend 25% of my time authenticating and validating and logging in and fingerprinting. I feel like I should only be spending 5% of my time doing this. (Or really, 1%.) Is this because I use Safari?
Finished reading Project Hail Mary: A Novel yesterday. The first half was a bit slow for me to work through, but I sped through the second half. 📚
An aggressive day of Klask.
At least we’ll always have “Plaid, Inc. Privacy Litigation Settlement Administrator has sent you $35.97 USD.”
The little guys win again: “Equifax Breach Settlement Fund has sent you $5.21 USD.”
Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.

I mean, I heard this quote from Carrie Fisher, but I think it probably originated elsewhere.
I am done littering Fosstdon with my non-FOSS posts. Find me @bjhess@social.lol now!
I know we bag on the Apple Music app a lot, but, man, has Calendar never been fully cooked. The biggest pain for me is its straight up loss of my email alert settings for recurring events time after time after time. Oof!
omg.lol account procured. Now to determine if I’m going to move my Fosstodon/Mastodon account over to social.lol.
I’ve had a standing desk that’s only been standing + stool-leaning for a decade. I think it’s time I get a chair for those occaisions I want to sit. Chair recommendations? Assuming it’s not a mega-expensive one, have you used a mega-expensive one and can you compare them? Thanks!
I see omg.lol prices are going up next year? I should probably jump in and support the weird web.
It’s nice to have a designer friend to help you out. Though we do have to tighten this up.
Rails TIL. In Rails 7 you need to render with a status code in order for Flash.now to appear.
Flash.now[:errors] = 'This is an error'
render :edit, status: :whatever_status
It’s wild because I could debug the view and see the Flash is set. But nothing displayed.
Just spent five minutes experimenting with adding things to Todoist via Apple Watch & Siri. Just plain doesn’t work. This is the actual reason I’m an occasional Luddite.
Things are happening…
Starting the week with more RSS feed hacking. Let’s see if progress is made.
A couple web form things I’ve never seen before.
Reading the first 2/3s of Robin Sloan’s Year of New Avenues has me excited! Getting the word out about projects has become rather challenging these days. I’m excited for new projects, and I’m excited for a world where they start being discovered again!
Using render.com, we don’t get much in the way of log retention or searchability. Any service recommendations? At this point I’m going with Papertrail. Logtail seems expensive. Datadog and Mezmo both seem built for something much bigger than what I need.
Had an intresting conversation with a friend today, which included his statement that the WALL-E dystopia is already here. “Give the average human a smart phone and Internet and you’ve changed the course of their life forever.”
