The Week #186
by James- π± My new headphone jack / switch arrived for my iPod. It was easy to replace, except had the smallest screws known to man. Once everything was put together it worked! Right and left channels work like a charm! I'm excited to be able to carry all of my music with me.
- π΅ I'm not sure how much longer that will be true as I rebuild my music collection. I can see artifacts of the great iTunes Match subscription cancellation of 2012 as I'm finding folders that I knew were full of music, gone. e.g. I know I had all of the Smashing Pumpkins albums.
- π« It was a rough week with Leo. For some reason he's not wanting to go to school any more, so getting out the door is rough. Even going to robot school, something he said he wanted to do, has become a battle. He told the teacher he wants to quit. Thing is, when he's there (at school or robot school) he has a good time according to all. Maybe he knows my business trip is coming up and clinging because of that? If not, I hope this is just a phase and it ends soon.
- πββοΈ On the good Leo news front, he we running with me again. He wants to go further and further...but I think we need to work on not stopping for our current runs. At school he wrote a map of where we're going to run and of course it includes a Triforce from Zelda π.

π 2600's amazing Hackers on Planet Earth con may go down to enshittification
by JamesIt turns out that Google and the other major mail providers don't like emails with the word "hacker" in them. The cartel that decides which email gets delivered, and which messages go to spam, or get blocked altogether, mass-blocked the HOPE 2024 announcement.
It's alarming how easily Google is managing to take control over email. It's the lifeblood of the internet. Just dropping all email from a list that you subscribe to, sent from a reputable domain, just because is completely unacceptable.
If you're using gmail, please stop. I switched to Fastmail years ago and recommend you do too.
