I had (inadvertently?) created an automation that begins with a Stream Deck keypress that executes a Keyboard Maestro macro that kicks off a JavaScript script in Audio Hijack that runs an AppleScript applet that executes a Shortcuts shortcut.
Precisely the sort of thing I made the BOZOWARNING for.
There are several ways to tell time with your Apple Watch.

technoblabbing in their glitterdomes
A few months ago, if you Googled, “How many rocks should I eat per day,” on Google, the answer was you should eat one to two rocks per day. And it came from an Onion article from many, many years ago that was a bit on lobbyist capture. It was like, “America’s geologists say you should eat one, two rocks per day, or a small pebble,” or something that got captured by a fracking blog. It was just aggregated. The Onion article was aggregated by a fracking blog, and that fracking blog got tossed into the AI feature at the top of Google’s search results. That’s a technological issue.
This is the point in the episode where "I'm screaming" would have been so violently true of me to remark that I pulled over.
For you see... I remember hearing very passively about the rocks thing and being amused - as someone who has eaten locally-sourced gravel every day of my life and grown so much better for it - but I not heard that it was the fucking Onion.

I'm sick of this recurring advice. Instead I should keep a wiki and comment my code better. Don't assume that everything applies to everyone.
Absolutely decimated.
Don’t treat televised spectacle like a deposition. It will go badly for you in all the very predictable ways.
Google Maps will allow you to create a shared list that lets you and your friends vote on certain destinations using emoji. Lists can be shared with friends through text or other messaging apps.
Really really pushing "collaborative" out of its meaningful definition here, folks. Voting is cute, but it does not actually belong within the navigation software.

When I questioned an FCC spokesperson about the accuracy the agency's warning by pointing out that I wasn’t aware of any security experts saying juice jacking is a real threat, they asked if I had spoken to every cyber expert.
lmao.
I do think, however, that we need to consider the pattern Citton and Crary have, each in their own way, identified. I would describe the pattern this way: We inhabit a techno-social environment manufactured to fracture our attention. The interests served by this environment in turn pathologize the resultant inattention. These same interests devise and enforce new techniques to discipline the inattentive subject.
a problem whose centrality was directly related to the emergence of a social, urban, psychic, and industrial field increasingly saturated with sensory input. Inattention, especially within the context of new forms of large-scale industrialized production, began to be treated as a danger and a serious problem, even though it was the very modernized arrangements of labour that produced inattention.

Here's the beginning of my true falling out with the Obsidian community.
Import notes on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch You can import Evernote Export files (.enex files) to Notes on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Each .enex file can include one or many notes. When you import an .enex file, each note from Evernote will be converted to a new note in Notes. Before you import to your Notes app, send yourself the .enex file via email or save it to iCloud Drive from your computer. Use Mail Open Mail and tap the email with the file that you want to import to Notes. Touch and hold the file, tap Share, then tap Notes. After your file downloads, you get a confirmation message. Tap Import Notes. Use the Files app Open the Files app and go to the file that you want to import to Notes. Touch and hold the file, tap Share, then tap Notes. After your file downloads, you get a confirmation message. Tap Import Notes. When you open the Notes app and select your iCloud notes, a new folder appears called Imported Notes. If you're not using Notes with iCloud, the new folder appears in the On My Device notes.
Stumbling across obscure/obscured shit like this in these operating systems used to be legitimately fun but uh... Well, it's been a while.
It works ridiculously well though! As in, the import process can handle far too many notes far too quickly for the device's actual ability to index them lol.
The spectacle is not a collection of images; it is a social relation between people that is mediated by images.
Un système qui n’est pas sans rappeler le régime français des intermittents du spectacle, dans lequel une sorte de “revenu de base”, calculé sur la base des revenus antérieurs, assure une sorte de plancher minimal de revenu. On peut d’ailleurs imaginer que ce revenu de base ne serait par versé tous les mois, mais seulement les mois où les revenus sont nettement plus bas. En Belgique, la coopérative SMart offre des services aux indépendants qui vont dans ce sens.
un régime spectaculaire, fonctionnant sur une coupure scénique et une convergence des regards vers un espace-temps attentionnel unique
