@OmniFocus Thanks! Had an Apple Watch forever and not sure I ever opened the App Store on it directly.
@OmniFocus I updated all my devices, but it says my Apple Watch is still running the old version. Migrate anyway? Is there some way to force that app to update? I assumed it was tied to the phone app.
I think that AI is fundamentally in opposition to the principles of Jesuit education and the IPP.

Inspired by @lmsacasas 's recent piece, I've been trying to articulate why I have such a strong reaction to AI evangelists in education. https://socraticreview.org/blog/2025/1/ai-and-the-humanities-first-questions

@overcastfm Weird bug I’ve noticed recently: random podcasts will place themselves at the top of my primary playlist as if they’re marked as “priority” but they’re not. Others download and sort as expected.
Give kids the opportunity to learn and practice new things in a low-stakes environment. Failure is important in life, but it needn't always be costly or dangerous.
@overcastfm I tried deleting and reinstalling but still a few bugs:
- When an episode ends, it doesn’t play the next/top episode, just stops. (Tried changing the setting off and on.)
- Doesn’t automatically delete played episodes. (Again, tried deleting and rechecking the setting.)
- Says I’ve changed the icon, but the icon doesn’t actually change.
- Thumbnail for Roderick on the Line disappeared, which is obviously the biggest bug of all.
@overcastfm Bug report: It seems like when an episode ends, it’s not automatically playing the next episode in the playlist (I did check the settings). Also not auto-deleting if I click the “played” button on an episode like it used to.
@siracusa @caseyliss My 7-year-old who plays on Switch is starting to ask about mods and I’m so terrified to undertake this adventure Casey is just starting.
