My main SIM card is on Pixel 8a. I’ve moved my signal account and WhatsApp account there as well. I’m not getting rid of the iPhone because I want to sync my Apple Watch (that was just degraded to be a fitness watch) but I’m giving it a real shot.
And after my first day - well, half of it - I must say things are going great. It just works. Like a phone. With apps. Couple hiccups here and there but nothing that wouldn’t be solved quickly.
Long time no see Mr Android.
Bought a sofa today, feeling like an adult.
In my defence - I was as JUST below my comfort level for a device I wanted to toy with for a very long time. Let’s see how it goes!
Ups.
My Ivory subscription ended and I’ve switched to Ice Cubes. Honestly, not a very big difference which I think is a great thing for Ice Cubes. Also I can see that Ivory is a Tweetbot morphed into Mastodon client because Ice Cubes have more Mastodon-related features.
I’d love to buy an iPod, mod it to have 1TB of storage, and listen to music from it instead of paying for Spotify or Apple Music. However, the challenge of downloading, buying, and even finding the songs I love is making this very difficult to do.
I want to have ChatGPT integration in most of the things unfortunately. Because, honestly, it works for me

For 29zl (around €6) I’m getting now 120GB of 5G data. I love how cheap internet is in Poland.
Saw wallpapers from MKBHD app - honestly it I’d pay for it I’d be furious.

Linux, Vim, Omakub and on being vendor agnostic | Eddie Dale:
The other aspect that appealed to me from Omakub, was the "us agains the mega corporations" mindset. Whether it's Microsoft, Apple, Google or Amazon. I keep feeling this urge. An urge to move towards more open standards. I have a Kindle, but my next e-reader probably won't be from Amazon. I have an iPhone, but I'm not sure the next phone will be from Apple.
This is exactly where I’m at!
Spotify’s daylist is something different. I haven’t been that understood by a piece of music-related software. Honestly, it’s always on point and the suggestions are always wild (but good wild). But in terms of being understood by a piece software, recently I’ve made multiple changes to automations working in our home due to finally having time to sit down and take a peak into what Home Assistant allows. And since then I had thoughts like “it’s getting too hot” or “it’s getting too dark” and at - literally at this second, HA turned on a thing because it became exactly too hot or too dark.
Doing buttons, clicking them to do a thing is obviouisly an upgrade from manually doing things, but I think I finally understood what does it mean to have “the smart home”. My current approach is that whenever something happens or just annoys me (or the wifey) - I try to either make automation at this moment or I write down what happened and what could happen. Also now I get why would I buy light sensors, air quality sensors and - most importantly - occupancy sensors. Having that additional information about room being occupied is great. Even for that simple “room is occupied == true” condition.
Your boy made it to the credits of Frostpunk 2!
Sixth episode of Mad Men today. It takes courage to binge this hard.
Yeah not really
