YOU WOULDN’T DOWNLOAD A REDDITOR

Took delivery of a Pixel 9 last Thursday after 16 years of iPhones. Within an hour of delivery I had it on Graphene and after a few days of VEEEEERY steep learning curve I’m really enjoying using it.

I have absolutely no idea how any of the sandboxing stuff works, and could stand to have fewer notifications warning me what the system is doing, but overall it’s pretty straightforward.

I’ve lost a couple of podcasts to Spotify. Life goes on. I don’t begrudge anyone wanting to earn money, but I won’t support Spotify’s practices.

There’s such a wonderfully low barrier to entry these days that there’ll soon be something else coming down the pipe.

As someone who’s made a number of podcasts on and off over the years since 2007, much of this post resonates.

However, I take solace in thinking that a podcast is just an extension of a broadcast; where a broadcast is, well, broad, a podcast is a self contained…cast. In a pod. Broadcasting covers audio and video, so it figures that podcasting would as well.

With that in mind, my own style of podcasting, and my preferred format is personal stories. I love podcasts that are by people in their bedrooms talking about their lives, or by journalists who talk to regular folk. Regardless of what Spotify do, that style will always be out there, available on an RSS feed.

I don’t use Spotify, I don’t use YouTube. If I can’t get it in my app then I don’t listen to it. And that’s OK.

I really need to get back into it though. I used to love making them.

I didn’t say it could, just that it’s easy to do (assuming your hardware is supported of course).

After 16 years of iPhones I switched to a Pixel 9 two days ago so I could run GrapheneOS. It took me ten minutes to install. Shit’s remakably easy to do. Assuming your phone isn’t carrier locked, of course.

This is a fun thread.

I’d love BTT on Linux too. The hardest thing for me with a move from macOS to Linux is losing the ability to zip about the OS with a trackpad. Also, I’ve had BTT set for years so that clicking the middle button on a mouse shows Mission Control. God, I wish I could work out how to do that in Mint.

I’m about to switch from iPhone to a Pixel 9 so I can put CalyxOS on it. Used iPhones since a 3GS in 2009, but the time has come.

I think most of the ones I usually mention in threads like this have been covered, but a glance through hasn’t shown me

The Blindboy Podcast

I’ll admit that this one may take a minute to really get, but once it locks in you’ll love it forever.

It’s basically just an Irish author, comedian, and former rapper telling stories, talking about mental health (he also has a masters in psychology), and interviewing people. One week he’ll be interviewing a couple of lads about insects, the next he has Cillian Murphy on. Last week was an hour about how he ended up in an office canteen covered in black hair dye, holding a bag of lemons.

It’s a wonderful podcast hug every week, and I can’t recommend it enough.

I’m enjoying this from my £28 a month 100Gb 5G contract that includes the cost of my iPhone.

(and which is about to drop to £10 a month because I’ve paid off the phone)

Nah, Vine was top shit.

As a fat lad, I’d get maybe a year out of my trousers. But I’d probably get 20 years out of my t-shirts. I just had a clear out last weekend, and finally threw away a bunch of old t’s I don’t wear anymore, some of which were pushing 15 years old.

£19 actually*.

(Or $24, if you’d prefer.)

Thanks‽
