Tuesday is election day here in Massachusetts. An added benefit to voting now is the assurance that your voter registration is in good order for the November election.
Today is the first day of early voting for the Massachusetts state primary.
@vincent Enjoy your trip!
@patrickrhone @manton I saw parts of it. He was unhinged, even for him.
This is a good article by Jason Snell about macOS permissions checking being out of balance. The excessive permission checking is probably the most frustrating aspect of using a Mac.
@freeagent Thank you for checking it out!
@cdf1982 Thank you, Cesare. Yes, AppKit is still great!
@jsatk Thank you for checking it out!
@lawrencelry On Mac, selecting an article and selecting Copy from the Edit menu should work. Does that meet your needs, or am I misunderstanding?
@manton I cannot fault Apple for discontinuing it, but the iPod Touch was the perfect test device.
@philsplace Thank you for the suggestion. I am considering BazQux support for a future release. You can add BazQux as a Fever account, but I acknowledge that native support would be better:
@the_alsatian Sorry, there is not.
@chuckdude Thank you, Chuck!
@jcieplinski Thank you, Joe!
@atog Thank you!
@didole Thank you! (And thank you to Ricky for boosting!)
I released Unread for Mac! Unread is an RSS reader with beautiful typography, color themes, and more. Unread has a long history on iPhone and iPad, and is now also available for Mac.
In 2020 President Biden saved democracy by defeating Trump. Now he is continuing to save democracy by passing the torch.
A deer in my back yard.
Once again the Supreme Court reminds us why we need to keep Trump out of office.
@Annie I was disappointed that Biden took the bait on this. A good response would have been, “I’m a terrible golfer – you’re right about that – but I don’t know what that has to do with anything”.
Also I don't even know what a 6 or 8 handicap is. 🤣
I am excited about text entry suggestions in AppKit.
CocoaHeads Boston will meet via Zoom tomorrow (Thursday) evening at 7:00 PM Boston time. New participants and participants from outside the Boston area are always welcome. www.meetup.com/cocoahead…
Noah Martin is organizing a WWDC keynote viewing event at Shy Bird in South Boston.
Guilty on all counts. ⚖️
@dejus Happy birthday!
@manton You always express your opinions thoughtfully. I am surprised and disappointed that these posts made people angry.
I won a copy of @patrickrhone’s book For You at Micro Camp (@camp). Thank you to Patrick and to the Micro.blog team!
@manton It’s a great feature. BTW I really enjoyed yesterday’s events. I wish I could have stuck around for the happy hour.
@manton I did not see it before either – but honestly I do not think I would have spotted the chat bubble even if it was there before without seeing your response to Patrick.
Congratulations to Joe Fabisevich on the launch of Plinky. Plinky is a wonderful app for saving, organizing, and sharing links.
@jean Thank you for all your work on Micro.blog! I look forward to seeing your books.
NSHappyHour will meet at The Lobster Shanty in Salem MA at 6:30 PM Wednesday. New folks are always welcome. Thanks to Geoff Bradford for organizing it.
@canion Yes, it's a great app. And I've exchanged email with the new developer. I think the app is in good hands again.
This does not look ideal. I reported it to the electric company.
NSHappyHour meets tonight at Bit Bar in Salem MA at 6:30 PM. New folks are always welcome. Thanks to @whitedonkey@mastodon.social for organizing.
I failed at Wordle two days in a row. Not April Fools, unfortunately. 🤦♂️
@manton Thanks!
@manton I am not seeing the episode in the feed at https://coreint.org/index.php?feed=podcast. It looks like the feed does not contain any episodes.
The Supreme Court must really be backlogged if they cannot hear the presidential immunity case until the end of April. President Biden should appoint a few additional Supreme Court justices to give them the capacity they need.
Voting FTW.
@manton Thank you, Manton!
@manton The episode does not seem to be in the feed at https://coreint.org/index.php?feed=podcast
At this evening’s CocoaHeads Boston meeting on Zoom, Ed Arenberg will discuss his experiences developing on the Vision Pro and show his game “Connect3D - Spatial” running on-device. New folks and folks from outside the Boston area are always welcome.
@manton Same. I miss Presidential elections where we could assume the country would be ok regardless of who won.
