  Has #TapestryApp secretly gotten great since I last checked it out? And has a big update coming tomorrow? Definitely watching with a close eye. It might be a most-in-one solution that actually works for my brain. Could see it working really well in tandem with your favourite RSS reader, offloading the sometimes-read-article feeds into Tapestry and keeping the always read feeds in your reader.

  @matt_birchler@mastodon.social I tried out Apple Maps for my area about 5 years ago and was shocked at how accurate it was. Best turn-by-turn navigation for me as well.

  All I want from #WWDC this year is (a) #macOS Spotlight on #iPadOS, (b) iPad Spotlight to actually capture keyboard focus on the first invocation, (c) Shortcuts to stop failing on the "Ask for Input" action so frequently. (d) Actually, just more broadly keyboard focus issues across iPadOS. I'm being conservative. I can't express how little I care about AI features given #Apple still needs to fix basic things about iPadOS and macOS that get in the way of accomplishing work thes...

  Easily one of the best, insightful, and non-clickbait-y reviews of the #SteamMachine I’ve seen. I’ve been only using a #SteamDeck for almost two years, and though pricey I think I’ll end up getting a SM as well; I don’t need cutting edge, it’s a big step up from what I have, the experience is fantastic, and the form factor solves real needs for my situation. #VideoGames https://aftermath.site/steam-machine-review-price/

  If you're on Linux, such as the #SteamDeck or #SteamMachine, and have a #Moza racing wheel, there are two pieces of software you want to get. The first is Boxflat, which allows you to manage much of your wheel configuration. The second is moza-rev (https://github.com/francisdb/moza-rev), which is trickier because you need to install Rust, gcc, cmake, and the standard Linux headers package using pacman, which also means disabling the readonly property of SteamOS. If you're on another Linu...

  My only #steammachine thought of the day: if indeed it's just the #steamcontroller going up for sale next week, they need to also give a date for the Machine and whether there's going to be a bundle offer; I do want one of the controllers, but there's no way I'm ordering one if I can bundle it with the Machine. #steam

  With the recent performance improvements to @couchapp and the addition of browser extensions to save articles to it (great for my non-Apple devices), it's become my primary read-later app. The Pro unlock is reasonably priced and introduces most of the features you would want in this kind of app. It's also actively developed, it's a great iOS citizen with good Shortcuts support and Spotlight indexing, and its developers have been responsive to requests in the past. Highly recommend c...

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@chockenberry/116489484447484637 This! Please! Having used macOS for decades, I have Spotlight issues on my iPad and I'm certain it has to do with DB issues. On a Mac I'd just rebuild it, problem solved. Nothing going on an iPad, and the disruption to reset it currently simply isn't worth it.

  After much experimentation, I’ve settled back on News Explorer by @betamagic for RSS. I love Current, but it did make me realize that I use RSS in a different way than most probably do; I’ll bounce back to it but N.E. is back to my daily driver. Pre-filters allow me to block out stuff I don’t care about, in-app comment fetching works so well for Reddit feeds, and customizable smart filters allow me to slice and dice my feeds into chunks that work well for my brain. I do wish it would get a Liq...

  Played my first full game of #HEXploreIt Vol. 5: Mountains of Godai last night! Went easy mode with a hexclusive role and race on the normal difficulty. Took about half the game until I felt the game began to flow smoothly, but once I got there it was enjoyable. It feels very different than the other volumes and will take a bit to get used to the sheer quantity of things that need to be tracked. The photos are mid-game and end game when I defeated Jaethi. I did struggle with the siege phase a...

  Great news. Koepke’s style fits in really well on the Jets and they’ll be happy to have him in their lineup. I really liked watching him on the ice in the last couple months. #WinnipegJets #GoJetsGo @illegalcurve https://www.threads.com/@illegalcurve/post/DXSZ0vNEhiJ

  Thinking about what the #WinnipegJets could look like next year. I think the team is actually pretty solid, adjustments are needed and they absolutely need to embrace the youth to gain some speed and give their game more bite. Thinking something like: Connor - Sheifele - Vilardi Perfetti - ??? - Iafallo Barron - Lowry - Rosén Koepke - (Toews?) - Lambert Morrissey - Salomonsson Samberg - Pionk ??? - DeMelo There’s a few gaps that need to be filled. You could probably interchange Iafallo, Rosén...

  If you haven’t checked out @couchapp in a while, you should! It’s continued to get better and better over time and is a solid full-featured #ReadLater solution for #Apple devices. I’ve been bouncing around solutions and think this is where I’m going to store my stuff. https://couchreader.app/features #indieApps #apps

  Let’s keep catching up on #boardgames! I’ve been on a #HEXploreIt kick, so before my last game of Godai, I finally played Sands of Shurax for the first time! I heard it was one of the more complex iterations, so I rolled a D4 to pick a city-state to align with and used their victory condition as my goal from the get-go. Victory achieved for Tarri! I destroyed all the other city-states and defeated the Level 8 boss that was teleporting me to all the irradiated spaces in the wastes. I probably di...

  @gametrack Long-time user of GameTrack here but this one issue is bugging me, still present after the latest update. When using sessions to log gameplay, GameTrack would correctly show the number of hours played and update the game progress appropriately. But it feels like randomly, it will just completely lose all that info. Here is an example; I re-entered all this info on my iPhone yesterday. The start date of the playthrough is properly set, I set the playthrough to “Extras” for the type, a...

  RE: https://journa.host/@winnipegfreepress/116438493094263223 I’m guessing it’s because many Canadian Conservatives would like a leader that has a hope in hell at winning a federal election, but I could be wrong.

  This is a great article that picks a single topic and succinctly highlights the corrosive effect of unbridaled capitalism on our economy. https://www.worseonpurpose.com/p/your-backpack-got-worse-on-purpose #capitalism #economic

  I rated it ★★★☆☆ (3/5); enjoyed the setup, cringed at some of the character writing. @buffaloseven@bookwyrm.social https://bookwyrm.social/user/buffaloseven/comment/10565881

  RE: https://mastodon.macstories.net/@viticci/116318745469739554 I was going to actually write a little bit about this, but I’ve landed on the exact same setup since 26.4 and love it.

  @mike@thecanadian.social haha inspired myself to look it up… Jets since Olympics: 10-4-4 (0.556) with a P% of 0.667. Kings since Olympics: 6-7-4 (0.353) with a P% of 0.471. Predators since Olympics: 8-7-2 (0.471) with a P% of 0.529. Hopefully shouldn’t be a problem!

  I recently moved over to #Booklore for my book library and love its excellent Kobo sync, but watching its development I have a newfound understanding of the abuse open source maintainers have to put up with. How some people can act so entitled over a piece of free software is beyond me. #reading #OpenSource

  Calling a tripping penalty and an embellishment penalty at the same time seems pretty oxymoronical to me...did he trip him or not? We're now grading how the fall happens on a valid penalty? #WinnipegJets #HNOM
