@reckless.bsky.social @davidpierce.xyz listening to vergecast: if anyone doesn’t believe you about game whales, the proof is that the monopoly game can afford to pay Chris Pratt & Jason Momoa to be in a TV commercial. So many examples youtu.be/O0eL4Q5QpKE

@charlespulliam.bsky.social Have you listened to Dinner Party? your Kamasi piece reminded me to put it on this morning. youtu.be/e_zD_w18ysw

The tech entuhsiasts are probably drooling over this. They are going to talk themselves into it so fast. (Almost no one should pull the trigger yet.)

If you need help remembering this model name: WH-1000XM5 WH = work [from] home* 1000X = 1000 series M5 = mark 5 (5th gen) * does not actually stand for that

Over on Threads you can now make your following tab your default view—cool. But, Meta never said that following feed would be in chronological order!! That place is bananas.

This Warriors game is WILD

Built-in cable: 🆒 Magnetic: 🆒 Sticking it to a laptop lid: ❌

@reckless.bsky.social have you seen Anker’s party speaker? The AI button will remove vocals from any song you’re streaming over Bluetooth to it. It’s wild and actually works. (Though there are some quirks with the speaker on the whole.) www.soundcore.com/rave-3s-ai-k...

Best Bose headphones at the moment? It's actually pretty straightforward. www.businessinsider.com/guides/tech/...

I see this as more National Treasure, but either way I’m in

I’m listening…

First Apple WatchApril 2015

Bookmarked

Super random Mac question: Every night I put my M4 Mac mini to sleep and in the morning Things and Apple Mail have quit (no dot under the dock icon). Other apps still open/active. Those are the only 2 that seem to quit. Any ideas?

I review a lot of robot vacuums and the hardest thing about it is getting rid of them. Here's how to do that if you have an old one www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-t...

The Eight Sleep Pod 4 is a tremendous sleep aid, able to cool or heat automatically throughout the night. It's price tag is scary, but not crazy compared to other high-end products out there www.businessinsider.com/guides/home/...

The robots have come for our windows and they work pretty well. (Not a huge upgrade year over year but still a worthwhile experience for certain homes) via @pcmag.com www.pcmag.com/reviews/ecov...

Why is Apple making Beats branded cables? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ this is what they look like though

Whoa. Huge earthquake in Southern California that I got a notification a half second before it happened.

Heaven help me if I buy a second one…

I lost track. Are goods from China going to be 600% or 650% more expensive? Whose move is it to ante up next?

You want the best running earbuds? I took 19+ pairs over 500 miles to do this www.businessinsider.com/guides/tech/...

Health wearables still have a way to go but I’m loving how they can indicate that your body is recovering, even if it doesn’t feel like it. Can help ease anxious minds.

This amount of delusion is crazy and not normal.

MLB players on paying for music:

FYI this is a very good bedside dock

I still remember popping into retail stores regularly to try and find a Wii in Nov 2006 when it came out. Nothing has changed in availability, only that companies don't put the consoles out for Christmas — they ramp up to the holidays.

At least a decade of Merrill Madness in San Diego. Padres & Jackson Merrill reportedly agree to a 9-year, $135 million contract extension. www.10news.com/sports/padre...

After subscribing for more than a decade, Netflix's latest price hikes pushed me away. I'm (almost) over paying for services and watching ads — it should be one or the other in my mind www.pcmag.com/opinions/net...

It's unfortunate why Studio Ghibli is the topic of discussion, but if it's piqued your interest, I have a previously written starter guide for picking one of its many movies to watch first thestreamable.com/first-time-s...

Non-tech alert: the Solo Stove Lloyd Fireplace is rad! (It's expensive to keep fueled but works well indoors.) www.businessinsider.com/guides/home/...
