    Dang I really like how iOS 16 treats wallpapers like watchOS treats watch faces.

    I played around with it for a minute but I can't figure out how to add the weather widgets on top of my own background image for the lock screen. Is that possible?

    @aaronpk Hey, @wildland_zko is doing incredibly awesome work updating the public about wildland firefighting efforts. He's having trouble with OBS + Google Earth and asked whether anyone knows an expert. Thought of you.
    Aaron Parecki
    Cool! I might be able to help! What's the issue?

    Are you using Airalo?
    Aaron Parecki
    I first was using GigSky when there were barely any options available. I used Airalo in Finland, and more recently Nomad for a bunch of EU countries.

    Hey @reneritchie just watched your eSIM video; was a major concern for me too, primary for international travel, but I was just introduced to @airalocom and here you can buy eSIM in nearly any country before you even arrive. Seems majorly awesome.
    Aaron Parecki
    I've been using eSIMs for international travel for a while now, it's fantastic. Having cell service from the moment the plane touches down because I bought it before I left is great.

    If I buy an 800 number (toll free number in the US) and route it my phone instead of my real number am I less likely to get spam calls? πŸ€”
    Aaron Parecki
    I actually had 877-99-AARON a long long time ago and it forwarded to my google voice number. But this was way before the spam call problem got so bad. Now I wish I had kept it!

    Not at all! I'm just wondering why it's taken folks so long to figure out how bad the whole thing is. When it's been going on for ages. That's all.

    The tech space, and community, has vastly changed in the last few years.

    There's room for everyone to do live-streams whenever they want.

    Eventually some of us will step on toes. It sucks, bu it's up to the audience to decide who they want to watch.

    This whole thing is silly.
    Aaron Parecki
    Exactly, plus it's not like everyone's audiences line up exactly, so it's actually an impossible problem to solve.

    Apparently I'm disrespectful not for the community because I live streamed at the same time as another creator on a ONE TIME scenario which was Apple event day.
    Aaron Parecki
    From now on there can only be one active livestream on youtube at a time

    Super fan. But it’s really the name of a guy named Stan, who loved Eminem far far too much. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_(song)
    Aaron Parecki
    Surprisingly that is not mentioned on the wikipedia page!

    curious, what music licensing company do you guys use most?
    Aaron Parecki
    Artlist, because it has the most permissive license. Plus I've already had them fight some bogus copyright claims on my videos and they were great about it.

    Twitter always has me feeling like im taking crazy pills.

    I literally only use one phone and only have one sim.

    Are there that many folks that really switch back and forth every 30 minutes?
    Aaron Parecki
    I've definitely popped my phone's SIM into the YoloBox to livestream from it.

    Also it's nice to be able to buy a local SIM when out of the country cause it's often cheaper than the eSIM plans.

    I've shied away from reducing location accuracy because then I can't defer location updates, but since I'm already at the 30 minute interval I'll try that out!
    Aaron Parecki
    Now I can't remember exactly why, but it has to do with the underlying iOS APIs.

    "best" is meant for things like navigation apps where you really want every data point as accurate as possible. Personally I don't mind the battery hit because that's the data I want!
