    Aaron Parecki
    Nope, nothing plugged into this laptop at all right now.

    Just incase you have a background recording going on hit CMD + Shift + 5 to stop it.
    Aaron Parecki
    Nope, and Zoom and OBS are closed too.

    TIL: "Day 2" is bizarre short form for "day 2 or before" and there are arrival test centres in the airport, not that you'd be able to find them in-between the "drive-through test center" spam. ๐Ÿคฆ
    Aaron Parecki
    well that's some bizarre word play. I've scoured the UK websites trying to find out if I need a test to just transit thru on the layover to Germany, and I was pretty sure I don't, but now I don't trust anything I read.

    @aaronpk Probably not RSS, but I know for tvOS there are a handful of "IPTV" apps that I think are mostly for overseas television providers where it'll import a playlist and surface different "channels". All those apps are pretty janky, though. Stuff like this: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/iprotv-for-iptv-m3u-content/id1476267616#?platform=appleTV

    Aaron Parecki
    yeah cool, definitely wasn't thinking literally RSS, but there must be some sort of generic format for this. If it hasn't been done well yet, maybe that's something worth trying? At the very least writing that for AppleTV means you are helping open up that platform since other people would be able to then use your app to view other videos in tvOS.

    I want to build a tiny TV app to surface the streams in the Owncast directory. I haven't done this because:

    1. The AppleTV is the best set top box, but if I built a tvOS app you'd all mock me and say I hate openness.
    2. The Roku is the most popular, but Rokus _suck_ and they suck even more developing for them. I know, I've worked on multiple Roku apps.
    3. Android TV boxes are ignored except for the Fire TV stick, and those are just advertising channels for Amazon that I want no part of.

    Aaron Parecki
    Is there a way to do it by providing something like an RSS feed to apps that might already exist on various platforms?

    @aaronpk lol, spend some time in the Middle East. Midday it may be 110F/43.5C and in the evening it would drop down to around say 90F/32.2C in the evening. Even though 90 is still warm, the drop was so extreme we would be putting on sweaters and jackets in the evening..lol

    Aaron Parecki
    nope nope no thanks. I had my share of 110+F weather in Portland this summer.

    I didn't know this either. We have been using Netlify for a project. I should look into it next week, to see if this would be a problem for us.
    Aaron Parecki
    They said they're going to have a fix for this early next year!

    Both I guess?

    Maybe I'm wrong, but let's say I wrote a trending post and 100 different people tweet it, that results in a hundred web mentions or?

    There's no discussion, just the info that 100 people shared it (which I think is not particularly useful).
    Aaron Parecki
    There's enough info for you to hide those if you want to only show specifically the replies and not just mentions

    hey! we're aware of this & it's definitely something we're fixing. it looks like it's rolling out Q1-ish

    in the meantime, we can delete anything you need deleted if you open a topic in the forums https://answers.netlify.com/ (I know that's not ideal, but we'll get you taken care of)
    Aaron Parecki
    Thank you! This is much needed. We ended up deleting the whole site and starting over and luckily it went extremely smoothly.

    How is it like on @vercel?
    Aaron Parecki
    Don't know, I've never used it. I'm just getting bit by this @netlify issue on a project right now and it's incredibly frustrating.

    This M1 Max MBP is great, and I do not regret getting it. It will be my computer for years. If you do not already have an M1, you will be blown away.

    But if you already have an M1 Air or MBP, donโ€™t expect to be blown away. Itโ€™s better, but not stunningly so.
    Aaron Parecki
    I have the M1 Air and that is so much better than my last computer that I don't feel the need to upgrade to the Pro/Max, so this is a nice confirmation

    Yeah I sent the tracking numbers to customer service and hopefully they can sort it out
    Aaron Parecki
    also lol i never knew that scam had a name. I just clicked thru to the link they sent that kind of hints at it without actually acknowledging the scam

    I doubt that's what's going on though? I suspect it's a school teacher who got her address wrong.
    Aaron Parecki
    That is a surprisingly consistent collection of items. If it happens over a long enough period of time it seems like you should be able to give Amazon support the tracking number and they can find out who ordered it and fix it.

    I finally found the appropriate thing under "Report suspicious activity" where I could provide the tracking numbers. I have reported the two most recent packages I received. Hopefully it's just a weird warehousing glitch.

    Anyway, thanks for reaching out!
    Aaron Parecki
    This actually sounds like that review scam where they order their own product that actually gets shipped and then leave a review that shows up as a "verified purchase"

    Paint Shop Pro. Adobe Premiere (tho I ended up getting a student discount on that in high school). Cool Edit Pro. Macromedia Flash. Final Cut. StarCraft. WinZip. DeadAIM. Thatโ€™s all I can think of right now but there was lots more.

    based on this tweet i have concluded that we are exactly the same age
