Husband. Father. Christian. Tech nerd. Dev. Annoyingly optimistic at times. I help recovering perfectionists get the day-to-day out of the way so they can stop chasing the dream and start living the dream.

Muppets Most Wanted is one of those movies where the B plot is better than the A plot. Not that the A plot is weak—these two just steal the show. image

@hal What are the first steps someone should take to start reclaiming their digital identity/privacy?

#Fountain 1.3.1 won't install from @Zapstore. I assume this is just a bad hash and not a bad app? image

Time away to rest, relax, and renew is essential. Not letting that slip away when you get back is the tricky part.

It’s fun, making the world a little more connected.

“It takes 25 minutes for you to get back up to speed after an interruption.” I’ve heard that statistic for years and have been sharing it with coaching clients for just as long. I finally read the original study. It’s short—just four pages. That 25 minutes is an interesting stat. It’s not about how long it takes you to get back “in the zone” you were in before the interruption. It’s how long it takes you to calm down and destress after the interruption. Watch the short:

Got Amethyst installed. Now to see if it lives up to the hype. ;)

First functional hiccup: @Signal doesn’t let you link another phone, like you can an iPad or Mac. I was wanting to use Signal as my go-to messaging app on this thing, too.

Clean, minimal aesthetic. I have mixed feelings about grayscale UIs: they reduce distractions, but they reduce differentiation, too. image

So far, I’ve only had to google one thing that wasn’t in the GrapheneOS install instructions: How to restart an Android phone. Sometimes, it’s the simple things.

Stop using do-not-reply addresses (text and email) to contact your customers. Set it up so that replies go at least to your customer service team. If your message is important enough to request your customer’s attention, they are important enough for you to hear from them. So many businesses get this wrong, even really good ones. If communication isn’t two-way, you’re sending an unfortunate message about how important your customers really are to you. Email addresses, SMS short codes, even automated phone calls can be configured so the customer just needs to reply. “This address is unmonitored” is little more than business jargon saying “we don’t want your problems, just your money”.

This cord has been on the corner of my desk for weeks. As soon as I throw it out, I’ll figure out what poor device is sitting here, unpowered. Right now, I have no clue why I have it. image

I’m not where I want to be, but I can see the progress. I remember when I shot triple-bogey on a good round. Now, double-bogey is a bad round. #golfstr

I connected @Damus to my @Alby Hub as an isolated app. It has a 0 balance. Makes sense. How do I transfer sats into it? #AskNostr
