Transcripts will be free for everyone.

I'll probably build more advanced features on top of them that may be Premium-only, but what you see in this beta will always be free for all Overcast customers.

Overcast doesn't charge for accessibility or table-stakes features, and once you use transcripts, you'll quickly realize that they're obviously both.

Before sending Apple any money this week, remember that Tim Cook attended a private screening of the Melania documentary at the White House later in the same day that Alex Pretti was murdered by this administration. He knew about it and went anyway.

@film_girl any other year, I’d respond to this gloating with a comment about how we’ll permit you, this one day only, to pretend you’re better than us, and move on.

But given that your country elected a fascist commander in Cheeto who is openly violating our sovereignty, I hope you get why the tone of the replies your getting is more in “kindly fuck all the way off” territory.

The US-CAN rivalry is rapidly deteriorating from friendly to adversarial. It wasn’t just a game for us today.

With HA and a generic zigbee radio, all my Hue stuff works better than ever without any of the baggage. Can’t recommend enough.

If you’re an Apple shareholder, consider voting against Tim Cook at this year’s meeting.

Takes less than a minute to do online and if enough smaller investors do, it sends a message that there are some things that are a hell of a lot more important than money.

Mark Carney: "That is Canada’s path. We choose it openly and confidently, and it is a path wide open to any country willing to take it with us."

His Davos speech will go down as one of the greatest in Cdn. history.

“It’s rather extraordinary in today’s hyper-partisan world that there’s nearly universal agreement amongst actual practitioners of user-interface design that Alan Dye is a fraud who led the company deeply astray.”
