Thing I learned today: it's a good idea to occasionally take off the wheels of your rolly suitcase and clean them, because they pick up a lot of carpet fiber and hair from rolling around dozens of airports for a few years.

I'd share a photo but it's gross 😅

The YoloBox Pro with my new PK1 Cage makes a great portable rig for livestreaming on location! If you missed my livestream yesterday, I streamed from my house I am tearing apart! 😮 Go watch the video for the full story as well as info about my new YouTube channel!

Well that's quite the sentence:

"Facebook has built its empire on the ability to acquire intimate details about user behavior across the internet"

Do I know anyone involved with @LoginDotGov? I found a few (minor) issues with the OAuth/OpenID docs there https://developers.login.gov/oidc/

I sold a washer/dryer on Facebook Marketplace, and now it's showing me new listings for washer/dryers. Glad to see the algorithm hard at work here.

It's here! The new PK1 cage for the YoloBox!

This cage is the mobile complement to the desktop version of the stand. This cage has two aluminum bars for attaching a variety of mounting brackets including handles, cheese plates, or this Smallrig monitor mount which then lets you mount a camera on top! The handles also have cold shoe mounts built in for even more options.

I can't wait to get a chance to use this on the road during my next trip!

So I've been spending my Saturday night preparing for tomorrow's livestream by reading up on all the details of YouTube's Content ID system and reading the licenses of various royalty free music sites, and all it's doing is making me more and more angry about the whole system...

PSA to fellow creators who use @artlist_io you might want to avoid using "Anthem of a Quirky Hipster" for a while... Seems like a comedian published the song in a comedy album and now YouTube is flagging any use of it thinking he owns the copyright to it.

Pretty neat trick Wordle used to migrate everyone's saved game state:

The main Wordle site was replaced with a bit of JS that grabs the game data from LocalStorage and puts it in the query string when redirecting to nytimes.

Also notable: that code is vanilla JS, no libraries!

This microphone sounds great and looks incredible! 😍

It's a USB-C mic with built in storage for on-board recordings, and you can also use it as a headphone jack for an iPad! I just posted a video going over all the features of the mic, so be sure to check it out on my channel! Thanks to @tula.mics for sending this over to check out!

Sometimes Duolingo makes up sentences that don't make any sense, but I think even this is something they couldn't have come up with if it weren't for the pandemic

I'm curious what, if any, types of websites you actually want and allow browser notifications from.

I feel like there's a good use case for them, but it's certainly not being notified of news articles or new recipes.

Stream a USB webcam to HDMI on a Raspberry Pi

This post exists to collect my notes on displaying a USB webcam on the Raspberry Pi HDMI outputs. This is not the same as streaming the webcam (easy), and this is not for use with the Raspberry Pi camera module. This is specifically for USB UVC webcams.

In this week's video I showed the step by step for how to green screen your live videos using the YoloBox Pro! Frankly it couldn't be any easier, I was really impressed how well it handled even my poorly lit green screen.

Also can I just say again how much I like the Elgato green screen? It collapses down onto my floor so it's totally out of the way, and only takes a few seconds to set up when I want to use it!

Watch here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAL7ZoHprz4

oops, I accidentally viewsourced wordle and it turns out the next day's words are already chosen and visible in the source code. Don't look if you don't want to be spoiled!
