@leo Neat. It would be nice if it threaded it right on your blog page though rather than dumping out to the Mastodon UI. Not that I dislike the Mastodon UI, it's just a bit of a janky experience.

@leo Heard you mentioning sumi.news a few days ago. I'm highly susceptible to your suggestions, so of course I signed up. 🙂 Loving it so far. You seemed to mention there is a dark mode - I was listening to your audio feed, so I couldn't see. How do I set that?

@leo Oh well. I'm not sold on dark mode for everything yet anyway. 🙂

@rysiek Sweet, we just have to wait at the other end and then we'll catch him!

@leo Interesting. FYI, if both your parents live into their 90s, you have some strong genetics going on!

@leo You should create an old skool telnet BBS for the hardcore* (read that gently as 'older') geeks in the audience! I would love a less social social media experience. 🙂

@leo I was listening to Sunday's Tech Guy this morning, and I was empathizing with your Google support experience. I've been waiting for them to resolve a faulty gift card ticket for three weeks. Then, I reached out again through Google 1 support this morning and it was a completely different experience. They were responsive and resolved the problem right away. Makes me think that they don't have good time zone coverage as I am on Atlantic time and contacted them early in my day.

@leo I still have one problem that might be related to what you were talking about on Sunday. I have a Google Play balance that it won't let me use because it thinks I'm not in Canada (which I am). Their "higher tier" support is working on it ... I spent 2.5 hours on a chat with them today and it isn't worked out. I was able to pay for YouTube Premium with my balance no problems, but it wouldn't accept it for Google 1 storage. Overall though, still a positive experience today.

@leo Maybe they were just on their "A" game today because of I/O. 🙂

@leo @leolaporte Did either of these wind up sticking? Still using them?

@leo I heard an interview the other day that said with the introduction of the bi-valent vaccines, we should now be to the point where it will be one shot per year like the flu shot.

@twitnews ... and now we know why it costs 3x as much as the Quest 2 for a minimal spec bump.

@twitnews If they can come in at a price point lower than the Quest Pro, they have my attention.

@leo I would be happy to chip in to grow and maintain. This is the best social media experience I have had in a long time! Just don't charge me for a check mark that means nothing ...

@leo @PadreSJ @Lisa Leo, were you actually looking for an "oeuf" emoji?

@twitnews How do you stop the government from buying information that people are freely and willingly giving companies permission to sell?

@brosandprose This makes zero sense on its face. Forgetting the Jewish spin for a second, China implemented some of the strictest lockdowns, and had some of the worst outcomes from COVID on the entire planet. How would that be if the virus was engineered to spare Chinese people?
