I’m taking a look at the default Apple Podcasts app. The library interface is inscrutable. Does this app make sense to others?

We all have a dependence upon our Earth. How about we stop screwing it up? #mbnov
My son has given me a bunch of reasons why a train is a cool vehicle. They’re comfortable, they let you travel around, they’re quiet… #mbnov
I’ve been a computer nerd virtually my entire life. I remember when a computer had 8 kilobytes of memory. Those were the days. #mbnov
Don’t forget about micro.blog game days. Details, plus a downloadable .ics file can be found at microgaming.space Come and play! 🕹
Check out the desk of @Burk in the latest episode of Hemispheric Views mini. You could even listen to it on a new HomePod mini, if you wish!
When I was young I loved The Far Side by Gary Larson. Unfortunately his recent reboot hasn’t grabbed me in the same way. #mbnov
This was our beautiful girl, Indi. @gabz
I’m contemplating the worth of getting a second HomePod (maxi), putting it into a stereo pair with my existing one. Then removing the receiver, giant speakers, etc. Just simplifying (perhaps?) it all.
I would be happy to watch a spooky movie tonight but I can’t think of one. #mbnov
This probably explains why I couldn’t get MarsEdit to launch yesterday. Sorry @danielpunkass mjtsai.com

Om Malik on Instagram’s Updates: I feel sad for photographers who think their future is on Instagram and the social network it brings. They don’t realize that they are there to help sell tchotchkes. The latest “features” added to Instagram provide a timely reminder that the only safe haven is owning one’s content. A personal website and domain name remains the most reliable way to avoid your content serving as feed stock for a commercial enterprise.
Challenge for the audience: How old would you guess I am? #mbnov

I bought some new Brooks shoes on the weekend. Now I’m trying to wear them in. #mbnov

In terms of quality of apps and experience using them I would currently rank them: #1) iPadOS #2) iOS #3) Web #8,968) Mac
I like the ranking as a result of some kind of Electron/web-wrapper Mac app that HEY is using. Mac-assed Mac apps required.

I have to say that I am mightily excited about the new Apple Silicon Macs. For geeks around the world, this is a great day. #mbnov
I got home from work today and passed out sleeping for the next 3 hours. Didn’t plan on that. On the bright side, it might help in terms of waking up at 2am to watch the Apple event live.
An elderly man driving a car almost crashed into my car today. I had to take immediate and drastic evasive action. #mbnov
