(Sorry for the very Texas answer) npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce I still haven't declared my trader status in App Store Connect. Any one else ignoring the problem for now? Seems like as long as I'm not trying to submit new apps, there's no effect so far. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1sdu…w074 Yes, sounds like you are going rogue. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1238…g63g I was just trying to help you get more money. Changing the world is noble, but you also gotta live in it. 🤷♂️ npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1c0m…xqjl See also: Online menus. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce Microsoft Family Safety emails continue to be the most useless thing known to man. https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/321/058/391/557/148/original/849f24be15e7d1f3.png https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/321/058/684/237/057/original/3210e2047a807d8e.png npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1utv…87lr It got a little better in Sonoma. That's it. that's the list of nice things I have to say about Apple Music on Mac. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce Percentage of people rushing to download Delta who just abandon and delete it after discovering it comes with no games? I’m guessing ~98%. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1eee…e209 To be fair, News might as well be Safari. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1eee…e209 And to think, just the other day I thought idle Drafts having 12 threads seemed a little high and spent an hour looking into reducing that. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce Not that anyone asked, but I’ve been using an Ottocast Wireless CarPlay adapter for about a month and am pretty happy with it. Nice to not always have to plug in. Worth a look *if* you have a car that shipped with wired-only CarPlay. Note that I was not at all happy with it until I unpaired my phone from the direct non-CarPlay Bluetooth connection to the head unit because it would get confused which to attach to at start. https://www.ottocast.com/products/u2-air-pro npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce @npub1k08…6xvn Worked here…try the raw content of this Gist as the “URL" value in the bookmark: https://gist.github.com/agiletortoise/c8e068d391cc6193fb460e251089a0ed npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce I have never been less interested in talk about Apple than I have been in the last few months. Between DMA/DoJ and Vision Pro, my tech podcast queue has become a bit of a snooze fest. On the bright side, I'm catching up on more non-tech shows I love. npub12uwuc0enl4ztxnm7270ra788nfa4a7kk0vas05h0j6d5ruc4k95qfattz0 Greg Pierce I just heard “I’ll be your mirror” in an Expedia ad.
