When my Kobo Libra 2 started to show signs of failing, I looked at getting a replacement. I initially thought I would go for a Kobo colour but then I changed...

Swipe-back in Obsidian.md
On my Mac, I just figured out how to make it so you can swipe-back to a previous page, or swipe-forward to the next page using the trackpad. Here's how:

On your Mac, go to System Settings | Trackpad | More Gestures.
Set "Swipe between pages" to "Swipe with Three Fingers" (no, "Swipe with Two or Three Fingers" doesn't work. Nor does "Scroll Left or Right with Two Fingers")

By setting

Migrating from iTunes to Navidrome

I posted of my woes with reliably syncing music onto my iPhone back in October last year, and after I had written that post I discovered an additional irritation in that a bunch of random albums just... didn't have their album artwork showing when viewed on my iPhone. The art was there in iTunes, it was there embedded in the damn music file, but the iPhone just stubbornly refused to show it even after another full remove-all-the-music-and-resync (which took well over twelve hours — ?!? — […]

Migrating from iTunes to Navidrome – Wölfblag

@ada @lynfox fwiw, for this morning's routine review of the last 24 hours posts in my #Geekery #antenna, there were NO false hits... 100% of the posts complied with my tags. this is very nice, albeit also confusing, given earlier misbehaviour.

#audio #geekery #PSA 4 laptop people:

if ur laptop has decent speakers and ur using lets say a bluetooth speaker, route audio to both the external and ur laptops speakers

ive been away from home a lot in the last few months with only laptop and bluetooth speaker and its always been either one or the other

by default audio goes either external or internal output and the output chooser only allows choosing one but not multiple so this very obvious thing has slipped me quite some time

on mac its trivial to set up a multi output device using the built in Audio MIDI Setup.app > + > Create Multi Output Device and then choose that in the system audio output chooser

the sound now ... incredible for such a small setup with best results when the laptop is in front of u and the speaker behind
my mac has incredible clarity and imaging while the bluetooth speaker brings the room filling oomph the laptop cant provide
(keep in mind different distances to the sound sources will introduce phase shifts in the sound)

lastly 4 the mac ppl i can recommend SoundSource.app 4 audio routing on a by app basis and other goodies

i use that to route only muslc to both, while keeping browser and system alerts to the laptop only

How is it possible that Ruby Waves has only followed Wave of Hope one time? I feel like I associate these two so much in my head. Now I need to know how many times played in same show… #phish #geekery

This one is about five beats per minute slower than either 12/31/95 or 7/15/25 which are the same tempo. But I also checked 6/19/95 and it was the identical tempo to this 12/4 one. #geekery

Cybersecurity Event in Review

The conference from Bettendorf, Iowa, has resulted in a satellite event in West Central Ohio with numerous themes and missions, beginning with port numbers, followed by CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures), followed by exploitation and numerous related black-hat hacking tactics. Even though user creation may have been advised, the truth of the matter was significantly more interesting with each of the users. Every vulnerability would result in additional contexts necessary to […]
