“Hold your breath”

“Kick your legs”

“Tuck your elbows into your chest”

“I think I can win this thing!”

This just seems like Project “Say the Quiet Things Out Loud”

I feel like the Mystery Machine became a requirement after Venkman exploded too many real estate developers.

That site is cancer.

There were literally 5 ads inserted within the list of 15 cities—that’s apart from the ads in the rest of the article and general pop-up’s from the site.

This isn’t a big deal.

If you’re developing in Xcode, you did not buy an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years.

If you are just using your Mac for Facebook and email, I don’t think you know what RAM is.

If you know what RAM is, and you bought an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years, then you are likely self-aware of your limited demands and/or made an informed compromise.

This reminds me of that Chinese law about being personally responsible for all medical debts of a person you run over—incentivizing killing the person, rather than injuring them.

I agree with the graphic.

However, I recently completed a straight watch-thru of every Simpsons episode, and while watching the lackluster episodes from seasons ~20-~30, I have to acknowledge one thing:

Quality of the show and its writing have noticeably improved since around Season 32.

The most recent episodes feel more centered on the family and much less on bizarre cameos and really outrageous situations. It actually feels like a show about the Simpson family and treats the characters more age-appropriately.

I don’t like that they lost/recast established voices of minority characters (Apu, Carl, Dr. Hibbert, etc), I do think the quality and the focus of the show is much better than it has been in almost 2-decades.

Oh yeah, isn’t there an Adderall shortage right now?

The dude probably just isn’t cranked up on his normal level of amphetamines.

I bet he keeps falling asleep, gets even fatter, and is even less capable of following his own thoughts as the Adderall drought continues.

What a great time for him to be on criminal trial…

Fairly thorough, if somewhat dated, list of Siri commands…

I wear my Stainless Steel Series 4 to bed. After updating to watch OS 10, I noticed it would not accept Siri commands for my HomeKit accessories.

I only wear it to bed, so I just chalked it up to an early bug and ignored it.

After loading each update between 10.0 and 10.1, the issue has persisted.

When opening the Home app on the the watch, it would just show the clean energy info at the top of the display and at the bottom it would indicate I haven’t set up any home accessories (I have tons, and they all work on my Ultra Watch and all other devices).

So, I decided to erase all content and setting and set up as new.

Now, the Home app isn’t even installed on the Watch, and does not appear in the list of apps in the Watch app on my phone.

I didn’t notice anything about HomeKit or Home app support being discontinued or unsupported in Watch OS 10 on older models.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I have an antique desk which has three locks and a single key.

My key continues to work for one of the locks, but when inserted into the other two lock key ways, the key will not turn in either direction (will basically wiggle a millimeter or so in either direction, but does not start to actually turn).

I am a very amateurish lock picker—I can rake a basic lock or use a snap gun, but this lever/mortise lock is very different from anything I have tried to pick before.

I should mention that I used the working lock to confirm that the key fully inserts into the other two locks before attempting to turn the key.

I’ve tried looking up tools for picking this lock and watched some YouTube videos.

I am curious if anyone with experience picking this sort of lock might offer some advice on tools to get or improvise.

I’m including a photo of the key to help identify what might be needed.

Any advice is appreciated.
