Using Spotify More

I’ve long-felt Spotify is the superior music listening app, but lately I find myself using it over Apple Music for a different reason.

Inexplicably, both my AirPods Pro 2 and Max cut out when I use them with my Mac Studio. Some sort of interference. So instead, I connect them to my phone to listen to music at my desk.

Thanks to Spotify being strongly cross-device, I can still control my music from my computer, sans-cut outs.

It’s dumb to need this workaround, but I’m glad it exists.

Finally, we have the ghost-runner rule, Manfred’s most notorious bastardization of the game. The rule places a base runner at second base to begin every extra-inning frame….

    About once per month I wonder how Apple Music can be so bad and core features, like playing music and adding songs to a playlist. I’ve resisted switching because thanks to me being deeply embedded in the Apple ecosystem, I wouldn’t actually fully switch away from Apple Music. I’d be paying for 2 music streaming…

    Writing is hard! Sure, knocking out 100 words here and there about some topic is relatively easy, but I mean really writing. Over the weekend I wrote a 3000+ word article for a publication that I’ll be able to announce later this summer. It took me the better part of a working day to do it. Here’s…
