I’ve begun my morning with two donuts and a medium French fries. So the health eating kick is going well.

I’ve decided not to renew my omg.lol account (it’s a great service but not a good fit for my needs). Among other things, this will mean the end of my Mastodon account. I’ve decided not to move it. I’ll keep posting to my site.
From the Annals of Shortcuts’ Shortcomings: why can’t I get a list of the open tabs in Safari using a Shortcut?
I spoke too soon about iOS not bugging you every time you add something from a third-party app to Safari’s Reading List. It was just failing silently in NetNewsWire.
Doth my eyes deceive me? Does adding items to Safari’s Reading List from a third-party app no longer prompt you to confirm every time in iOS 18?
When I open a tab in Safari 18, type in a URL and hit Return
, focus remains in the location bar and the URL is selected. This behaviour doesn’t happen if I do the same from an existing tab. It’s making visiting search engines quite frustrating.
Today I learnt from John Gruber’s iPhones 16 review that if you press and hold on the on-screen shutter button when taking a photo in the Camera app, it will start recording a video instead.
I was unaware Mad Max: Fury Road apparently lost money at the box office.
Every single time anyone takes a sharp intake of breath before they sneeze, I always hear the beginning of ‘Daft Punk is Playing at My House’.
Only Murders in the Building is easily my favourite TV show of the past 15 years.
I’m done trying to order iPhones at launch. I prepared everything using the Apple Store app and all to no avail. I couldn’t get in for the first few minutes and by the time I did, the phones were back-ordered. Might try again around November or December.
For maybe the first time since I started listening to podcasts I’ve cleared my queue. Do I… talk to my family now?
I was able to recover the data off my broken hard drive with ddrescue
. I’m so unbelievably happy right now.
It feels a bit overwrought to point to the Beetlejuice movie as deeply significant of anything (as if the original were high art in the first place) but I can’t help feeling some despair at cultural stasis whenever I see its marketing material.
