“Stand back and stand by” is not stand down, and it’s not an accident...

Yeah that caught me off guard too

gotta admit, as much as I want to, I can’t turn this off.

I mean, the network is in the business of getting views, and it seems to be working

I've had to be a teetotaler to live through this entire administration with my liver in tact.

Don't worry I'm drinking enough for both of us tonight

vegan nachos are coming. They will help a little.

Not watching it. Haven’t read a single tweet since before it started. Gonna go to a bar and have a drink. You, too, can live this life. #bethechange

I dunno what timeline you're in but this does not seem like a good time to go to a bar 🤭

A “vaccine” will appear just before Election Day. Untested, unproven, and unsupported by science. But it’ll be there.

it's going to be the best, the greatest 🙄

@aaronpk Thanks for your great Q&As. I’ve been trying to figure out if the ATEM minis allow you to make a 3 way plus split screen. I know the DVE allows for 2 up split screen, but I might want to have up to 4 guests on screen at the same time. Thanks for the advice!

There's not really a good way to do that with an ATEM Mini unfortunately. Best you can do is kind of fake two pictures over top of a background, but that's a stretch. Best bet is to keep adding ATEM Minis, or do it in software like OBS.

You go to coffee shop while wearing your Airpods. You pause your podcast / music. Do you...

Just now realizing that I haven't been to a coffee shop since I've owned AirPods because I bought them in March

Something I just realized.

In the last two months my YouTube revenue has been double of my day job.

And I wouldn't hesitate to drop YouTube if push came to shove, primarily because of how important my health insurance is.

Dang its crazy how important that is.

Is this why there are so many canadian youtubers?

My coworkers during morning meeting: "Why do you have a tab called 'Anal'? "

It takes exactly 4 letters of the title before chrome autocompletes the website for me, so I type that a lot.

I now have a display high enough resolution it needs HDMI 2.1 cables so am slowly getting some. Tempted just to throw out all the old cables but that seems wasteful. I should put tape labels on them or something; really dumb they aren't labelled.

USB 3.0 and USB Type-C, hooboy.

yeah I'm worried about enumerating all the different kinds of USB-C cables I have now... some of them are USB 2, some are 3, some are charging-only, some have Thunderbolt also, etc etc

How did you segregate HDMI version / bandwidth support? Is there any way to even tell, looking at a cable?

Most of mine don't have any markings. I doubt I have any of the oldest type at all anymore, and everything from the second gen onward is good enough for 1080 so I don't really care about the differences beyond that right now. USB on the other hand is quite a mess.

The right way to use Handshake:

> Download HSD or the HSD/Wallet wrapper, http://BobWallet.io

> Get some HNS and send to your wallet

> Bid on any <63char string you can think of by opening an auction for it on handshake

> Buy a TLD for <$1

So if you’re able to control a domain name and set Mx records you’ve got portability. It actually works pretty well but it’s not used for individuals so much as organizations. What’s the equivalent or way to extend it to individual users.

For some reason DNS providers haven't iterated on the UX around configuring records much. If as much time and money were spent on making DNS easier to use without understanding all the terminology as was spent on all the blockchain tech, we'd be in a much better place right now.

For sure; it just requires specific functionality on the provider's side. With webfinger, we always imagined that you could enable "portability" by setting a redirect or a pointer, again provider-dependent.

in a way, email already is portable. My email address is on my domain, parecki.com, but it’s actually a Gmail account under the hood. If i want to move that to another provider, I can, and I don’t need to tell anyone a new email address. This is of course thanks to DNS 🙃

i.e., is that something that *must* happen with consent from email providers/domain controllers? Or is it something that could be baked into ssb/deltachat/similar? What would ownership verification look like in that case?

the “I’m locked out of my account” problem is not going away any time soon, and is a real hurdle in building this kind of thing in a decentralized way
