Itโs about damn time. This has always been a bullshit gate keeping out great talent.

It’s time to make the decision to pull life support on my 2009 Mac Pro. Something is causing it to be more unreliable as the days go on. I suspect hardware now after much fiddling. I want to turn the case into something cool!

In Case Of Emergency, Wear Sport Loop
When I decided to take on a running challenge this year, I also upgraded my ๏ฃฟWatch to the Series 3, so I could use it a tracking tool, but also a safety mechanism for when I was out running alone. Chances are good that nothing bad will happen when I am out on a run, but being prepared is a good thing. Having the cellular connection in my watch allows you to remain connected while on the go without the need for a bulky phone. If anything were ever to happen (providing I am conscious) I merely hold the side button, and Emergency SOS mode is activated. Pretty impressive feature if you ask me.
I generally run with a Sport Band since they are comfortable and immune to sweat and gross. It has occurred to me recently however that this might not be the best band to have on if an emergency were to happen. The Sport Band can be pulled off quite easily whether that be by a person, or due to an impact. This has led me to switch to wearing one of the newer Sport Loop bands. The Sport Loop band is far more secure and is not coming off without a great deal of force.
Of course, I hope I never need to find out how well this works, but I do feel better knowing that should I ever need to activate the SOS mode, I can be very sure it will be there within reach.

Anyone using OmniFocus 3:
Does version 3 add any kind of system for shared project / tasks with other people?
Really great run today! ๐ ๐
I ran downtown today so I played the โdonโt stop runningโ game. Keep going no matter what by (safely) changing directions to always hit green lights and crosswalks.
Best run ever I terms of how I felt afterward mentally!
THERE MUST BE A BETTER WAY ๐ญ

I just found this feature in Patreon!
If you support things that post audio for supporters, Patreon creates a unique Audio RSS URL for you so you can add it to your podcast player! Really well done!
A lot of good discussion around the use of “@” for usernames.
I think I like the idea of using a period instead perhaps? Seperation from other platforms and it’s already in the Micro.blog lexicon. “micro dot blog”. There are issues, but still..

Saw this “Read It Later” service today for the first time. Not something I would want in my inbox, but I know a lot of people who email stuff to their inbox as reminders. www.emailthis.me
The store that I waited in line at to get the original iPhone on day one is still there!

I thought for sure it would have been turned into something else by now.
Weird that I took a picture, I know (but I was in the area) ๐คช
Hypothetically if someone asked you about moving to Portland, what neighborhoods should they look at?
