Josh Gad walked out of the elevator at work as I was waiting for it. Didn't hit me until after he walked past me and I got in the elevator. I was like "was that...?"

"I played with Dr. John, also known as Mac Rebennack, a few times and he’d call me on the phone and say things like “Meet you at the gig-a-roo,” and all that kind of thing, so he’s quite a character." - Donald Fagen

Two weeks with Qobuz trial. Thoughts: - iOS app is super buggy for me - No support for playlist folders - Back button on desktop takes you back to the top of the playlists page instead of last place you were - Have to select output device manually every time you launch the desktop app

Data recovery saga update: it took just over 15 hours, but I got all my files back from Backblaze. First time restoring anything of this magnitude and I'm super impressed with how painless it was. Local clone to new "safety" drive is almost complete, so it will be difficult to screw up again :)
