    Sometimes when I wake up after having fallen asleep wearing AirPods I get worried I swallowed one while sleeping when I canโ€™t find them for 10 minutes ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…just me? Ok.
    Aaron Parecki
    Fun fact: On average, people swallow 8 AirPods a year while sleeping. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/fact-or-fiction-people-swallow-8-spiders-a-year-while-they-sleep1/

    @aaronpk I've recently started posting on micro.blog and came across your post when looking for a way to add weather to posts. Could your solution be implemented on a platform like micro.blog, or is it something that would require access to the blog platform itself? I should note that I tend to post either via the micro.blog app, or via Quill which is a way more accessible editing experience for me as a blind screen reader user. Would appreciate any thoughts as I'd really like to start doing this. Thanks in advance.
    Aaron Parecki
    Thanks for the note, and I'm glad to hear Quill is a good experience for you!

    Including weather in the posts like I do does require special support from the blog software. I suppose you could always include it in the text of posts, but that might clutter up the content of the post too much too.

    Today I learned how strange (and mildly disorienting) it is to watch a video of yourself speak. I also learned that the voice I have for myself in my head is almost nothing like my actual voice ๐Ÿ˜‚

    100%! This year is the first year I finally don't feel like that, between editing videos of myself and watching back hundreds of hours of my presentations.

    What I never got is why people are so eager to board the plane as early as possible. My strategy is to wait until everyone is in and to go in last. This way I'm in the airplane as short as possible. I always try to get a seat in the center so that nobody needs to stand up and let me into my seat.

    it's the battle for overhead bin space! I never check bags but that means I need space in the overhead bins. Last one on means the space is all full up usually.

    I absolutely dread when itโ€™s SD Card cleanup time. Iโ€™d almost rather to keep buying more cards then to delete the footage off of one.

    Iโ€™m always terrified Iโ€™m going to delete a main clip of something ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
    Aaron Parecki
    Remember when we used to just keep buying VHS and 8mm tapes never taping over old ones?

    Then again, it was a lot harder to back those up back then.

    Welp it filled up back here, oh well. I'm not super familiar with the SAS seating assignment process, so I guess several rows of empty seats during checkin yesterday was not an indicator of an empty flight.
    Aaron Parecki
    oh and in my rush I forgot that one of the things I was supposed to do at the airport was buy snacks for the plane since the website wouldn't let me choose a vegetarian meal and Scandinavian food is like the complete opposite of vegetarian. ๐Ÿ˜”

    aaaaand I am on the plane! Boarding group A so I'm the first one into the back half of the plane! ๐Ÿ˜…

    Now I just cross my fingers that the seats next to me haven't been claimed in the last 24 hours and this will be a pleasant 12hr flight.

    While it was fun, I maybe shouldn't have spent an hour riding the new city loop automated train in Copenhagen this morning. Now I have only 45 minutes til boarding and the checkin line is really long.

    So if you accidentally switch to emoji keyboard while typing fast you'll then inadvertently add an emoji. You then want to delete said emoji, so you tap where the delete key just was โ€” but it's moved, so you add another emoji!!

    lol yes this happens to me at least once a day and it's incredibly annoying

    Want: An audio mixer, explicitly NOT for recording studio or stage use, but rather for mixing multiple stereo audio sources on my desk (PC, Mac, Alexa, etc.) into a single stream to be fed into desktop speakers. Minimal/no knobs preferred. Does something like that even exist?
    Aaron Parecki
    Itโ€™ll be tough to find one with no knobs, but try searching for โ€œline mixersโ€. I have the Samson SM10, it fits in a 1U rack mount, or you could mount it under the desk.
