    I've been here 3 days and my @FitBit watch still hasn't figure out that I'm in a new time zone. What good is a watch if it can't tell you the time?? Also there's no way to manually set the timezone. And force syncing it hasn't helped either ๐Ÿคจ

    This morning I noticed I have a new feature in YouTube called "Go Live Together", an easy way to bring in guests to your livestream. So what better way to test it out than to try it LIVE right now?

    Join me and @PhotoJoseph over here in 20 minutes!

    I need to figure out what shenanigans @TripActions pulled with my itinerary that caused the security check to reject my ID, and the @AlaskaAir lounge agent to have an extremely confused look on her face after scanning my boarding pass.

    The spring in our dishwasher door broke today and I had no idea how heavy dishwasher doors are without that assistance!

    I have no reason to leave twitter because my twitter is already just a shadow copy of my website, but if you want to find me elsewhere, you can follow me from Mastodon and micro.blog and others:

    I'm trying to pick out doorknobs and locks for the house and it turns out I have a lot of feelings about how doors should work

    so... @AlaskaAir recently redesigned the exterior paint of their planes, and now most of the stock footage on StoryBlocks is out of date. But I'm noticing some other stock websites have more up to date clips. what's going on?

    Today I worked on budget spreadsheets, planned out all of next year's travel, went grocery shopping at two different stores, restocked the pantry, emptied the dishwasher, and cleaned the sink.

    When do I get my adulting trophy?

    I had no idea these "time since last opened" pill caps were a thing and also so cheap, and now I want to make these for all sorts of different reminders, like

    โ€ข when did I last feed the cat?
    โ€ข when did I last pump up my bike tires?

    For the past month, I've had a fragment of a song stuck in my head, and haven't been able to figure out where it's from. The Foundation theme reminds me of it.

    Finally, tonight, I remembered it's from a bizarre Swedish commercial I saw years ago.

    I just got to scare the crap out of some kids who were climbing around my construction site by triggering a 12v siren from Home Assistant, and watched the whole thing on the remote camera feed! It was oddly satisfying, and I hope they get the message not to come back.

    I just finished downloading my whole Flickr account to a static website. Now browsing around it is much faster than looking at the same photos on Flickr, and it makes me want to get back to actually organizing my photos again!

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
