You know what’s really stupid? Enabling crossfade on Apple Music requires you to go into the Settings app, then find Apple Music and then enable it from there. Absolute madness to not let me set it directly in the app.

Uh with the whole UK/Apple thing going on, I find it odd this is the first time I can recall seeing this message.

Some people say healthcare companies removing executives’ photos from their web sites is a good security measure. I suggest that it shows consciousness of guilt.

This is an experiment. Please boost.

Here's the idea: This post is going first to my followers, then, if they boost it, to other people. This domain has been registered for only this experiment. I should see in my web server's logs when mastodon instances start crawling the site for info. Then maybe also some curious humans.

I just want to play with my monitoring a bit :)
