@ianRobinson I have whatever is the mostest I can pay Apple each month 🙂

@ianRobinson I get what you’re saying. I can be playing different things concurrently on different devices.

@ianRobinson I don’t understand why a family plan should make a difference. I often have multiple HomePods playing and stuff going on laptop and phone. I do have a family plan but all those devices are playing from my account, not other family members’ accounts.

@vinnycoyne otherwise I’m in trouble when I shout at the cats; Spacey and Spooky!

@vinnycoyne oh wow. That’s in the ballpark but I’d like to think “two syllables ending in an ee sound” is not all they listen for!

@upgrade @jsnell request for next years draft to have a theme song for macOS name picks. I suggest “California naming” to the tune of “California Dreaming”

@opsGordon my daughter was just using Perfect Tempo on Saturday to learn a new dance for an Irish dancing competition. This will help for future routine learning!

@briannawu @MikeElgan having seen the Tetris movie recently this makes total sense. Console, computer, and handheld rights were all accounted for, but nobody had taken McNugget distribution rights.

@joshua ah, but the bus was where the power was coming from so I could only have tasered the module itself. Especially as it had no power going into it through the normal power connector. Now that I think about it, the auxiliary module needs power too so I was probably powering the main module through the back door. Ahem.

@joshua it’s an easy mistake to make. The power connector and auxiliary module connector are the same 16-pin connector.

After fitting a couple of TipTop Audio Studio Bus boards and installing a bunch of modules I found that the board was resetting every couple of seconds. I was concerned that my boosted power spec was still not enough.

After doing some debugging (I.e. pulling the power from module by module) I discovered that I had plugged my Turing Machine’s Gates output into the bus board. After connecting the right cable everything seems to be working again, and no damage to the Turing Machine.

@ianRobinson I’d probably get rid of Netflix first. Especially if they enforce these new rules on watching in different properties. We’ve got a house in Ballycastle and I don’t really feel like lugging AppleTV boxes home every 30 days so that they appear on our home network.

@glennf @yatil IRS kept sending me letters to the UK to verify my identity that would have a response deadline. Which was always expired by the time the letters arrived. Eventually they told me that the after 3 years I had no right to claim back the $3000+ my publisher had paid them on my behalf as the time limit to claim was past.

Bought a secondhand 12U case a few weeks ago but found that the power levels were a bit low as it was just a couple of Doepfer A100 bus boards. Have spent the day replacing the Doepfer boards with two TipTop Audio Studio Bus boards. Each one puts out the same sort of power as the combined Doepfer boards. Haven’t wired them up yet, but just the process of taking the old stuff out and mounting the new stuff has been fun.

@nivrig Grandstand was the first gaming device we had as well. Hand-me-down from my uncle.
