When I turn on the TV to find my TiVo recording a cricket game from India, I tend to question the ruthless effectiveness of machine learning.

I deleted my StoryGraph and GoodReads accounts today. I’m just not really using either, and they had become just one more place I needed to keep track of my reading. For stuff I have read, I maintain a list on my site, and I’m going to use BookTrack for keeping track of to-reads, wishlist, etc.

Well, I’ve met Glorfindel.

“Raise the Blood Flag and get our geeks to work.”

I like it. I also like the analogy of cyberspace to the high seas.

Spammers can be so cute. Oh, an email from my retrophisch.com email support team?

I am the retrophisch.com email support team. Well, me and the fine folks at @DreamHost.

Kids download Paramount+ app on our Apple TV.

I get an email from @AppleSupport about a Paramount+ subscription trial that will need to be canceled in a month or we get charged.

Said subscription isn’t in the subscription list for the Apple account being used on the Apple TV.

This is an extremely #firstworldproblem, but it’s kind of crappy of Apple to start AppleCare coverage on a product I haven’t received yet.

Like Elon Musk, I prefer Signal over any other messaging service out there. www.digitaltrends.com/news/elon…
