  • Sheldon Cooper Hot Drop

    A [just recovered, thought-to-be-lost!] conversation with DomanarK from Clueless Space Nerds – one of the most entertaining Eve Online podcasts around.

    We knew he was an authority on the game; turns out he’s one on life, too.

  • Melon Man Emergency

    Just trying to be glad you’re finally willing to acknowledge Mastodon’s existence!

    This is the first audio production I’ve ever done entirely on a goddamned iPad - recording, editing, “mixing”, rendering, and “publishing.” Isn’t that interesting!?? If you haven’t already, look into Ferrite.

    In-Progress

    • The (Twitter) Thread
    • The (Mastodon) Thread
    • The (Live-updated) Notes
    • The GitHub Repository (Which I have literally done nothing with yet.)

      • The Positives

      • Joanna Stern’s Take
      • Couldn’t find the video from that GitHub stream in a reasonable amount of time. If you’d really like to see it, though, let me know and I’ll keep looking.

          I have no idea what the word "podcast" means to anyof you anymore.

            (EDIT: Audio has truly been fixed now... Sorry about that.)

            On Saturday, September 4th, I scheduled a Twitter Space entitled "How to Explain iOS 15 to Your Mom" a few hours in advance, not necessarily expecting any speakers or guests to show up, but an old friend and two new ones did! They indulged me for a near-2 hour conversation about a whole lot and I really appreciate it.

                  • If you follow more people than follow you, what you are in essence saying to that person is "I followed all these people, but only some of them found me interesting enough to follow me back."
                  Not only that, but you are also saying "Yes, I may have recently followed you, but don't take it too personally, I like to follow a lot of people, so really, the fact that I cared enough to follow you doesn't mean I am genuinely interested in what you have to say."
                  Not doing great on the first impression scale...

                    • There was something pleasant about meandering from conversation to conversation, as if I had walked into my own home to find a conference in full swing. But I also wondered, Why did I let all of these people into my house?
                    ...
                    It is hard to shake the feeling that everyone on Clubhouse is selling something: a company, a workshop, a show, a book, a brand.
