everything USB-C

love that iphones are switching to USB-C! disappointed the mini isn't back.

setapp is like if macheist happened every day

why is there so much turkic culture/terminology/imagery in c.s. lewis’s narnia books? especially when he never visited that part of the world, didn’t speak turkish, etc.

loved this article’s exploration of that question: https://engelsbergideas.com/essays/finding-turkey-in-narnia/ (and would read a longer work on it too!)

decided not to take melatonin tonight (i only started taking it again to try to get into the school day schedule switch) and now it’s 2am and i’m still awake. whyy

so many things in life would be smoother if i fell asleep as easily as i sleep in. it’s like i never grew out of teenagerhood

had another brand's "cold IPA" the other day, and was wondering aloud to @Chad whether it was connected to the "ice beer" brewing technique (freeze the beer to remove water). turns out, nope!

in a nutshell, "a 'cold IPA' is an IPA fermented at lower temperatures than what is normally used to ferment an ale"

was shocked to find out that was all the real actors voices on the musical episode. and that last episode cliffhanger! i haven’t enjoyed star trek this much since TNG was still on the air, i think!

been watching the new star trek snw with my boy at the recommendation of my parents — just finished the second season and it’s gotten surprisingly good!

kai’s power tools

had a picnic/bbq to welcome my parents moving back to canada — luckily my truck juuust fit between the bollards at the park entrance, so i was able to haul all our stuff up the hill to the pavilion

hold up… can i use 1password two factor authentication any time a service supports google authenticator?

just tried stripe’s google 2FA setup QR code with 1password and it worked like a charm!

camped w friends at sibbald point — kayaked the black river, saw lots of cool birds, had good food and beer together, then had a horrible sleep, but still worth it!

aerial screensaver for mac is perfecto.
