Sat Jul 11 2020

Sleep 03:30 to 05:30. 09:30 to 12:30. 16:15 to 18:00.

• A couple hours sleep so I could go grocery shopping while Safeway was mostly empty.
• I'm an old iTunes guy so I never really used the Podcasts app on iOS. I really liked how easy it was to setup playlists and control what podcasts were downloaded in iTunes. Now that I'm on Catalina there is no iTunes so I'm setting up Podcasts and we'll see how I like it.
• I ended up deleting all podcasts from all devices then resubscribe, download episodes, and sync to iPhone (which worked ok) and iPad (which left out many episodes). Oh well, I listen to podcasts on iPhone so that's more important.

Sleep 07:00 to 15:30.

• Books app now directly stores PDFs in iCloud, which means I can't just store GBs of stuff in Books. I didn't see a setting to turn that off.
• Sunday is for catching up on sleep.
• Finally caught up on my Journal and Review pages. I really slacked off at the start of self isolation and it's taken a couple of months to catch up.

Mon Jul 13 2020

Sleep ...an hour?... 10:30 to 14:30.

• I'm a registered Republican so I get a lot of emails. I donated to the DNC so I get emails from them too. I unsubscribed to all of them. No more emails from the Democrats. Still get emails from Republicans because they don't believe in privacy. Fuckers.
• Brief power outage and my MBP shut off. Why? It has a battery. Although the other thing is my UPS didn't kick in. Darn it.

Tue Jul 14 2020

Sleep 02:00 to 03:30. 07:30 to 15:30.

• Bundle of Holding: Shadowrun 5 Essentials, SR5 Lethal Streets, Savage World of Flash Gordon. All three lots of sourcebooks and only one Flash Gordon adventure. Less useful for me as a GM because I'm not good at coming up with adventures.
• Netflix now you can go to title info and Remove from Row, which is useful to remove half-completed things from your Continue Watching list. It's great because I don't want to continue watching bad movies.
• Hmm. Disk Utility won't reformat an APFS HD back to HFS+. Probably not a huge problem, though I heard APFS is not slow using spinning drives rather than an SSD.
• My reviews pages switched to a small font starting a couple weeks back. I fixed it by: copying the text to a separate document, delete the entry, create a new entry, paste the text back. If I just copied, delete/create, paste the issue would persist. Probably an html formatting string being copied and also copied from the last entry when you create a new entry. It's a problem with a WYSIWYG-y html app.

Sleep 06:00 to 09:30. 12:30 to 16:30.

• It's infuriating how many times I close the wrong tab/window because I don't realize where the focus is. The behavior was changed years ago (I think from slightly shading other windows to just having the close/minimize/maximize buttons colored in focused window) and I still can't always tell.
• HOA board asked me if I want to be a board member. I guess so if they need to fill a spot so I'll fill out an application for the upcoming election. From what I've seen in the last two elections they are uncontested because people don't really want to devote time to be in an HOA board.

Thu Jul 16 2020

Sleep 06:00 to 15:30.

• Got an email that I received Watchdogs 2, though it's a Windows game and Uplay app is also Windows. A lot of trouble to go for a free game I probably can't play.
• Spent a week moving all data out of my Drobo. Reformatted to HFS+ (Journaled). Now starting to copy data back.
• Downloaded the remaining Star Trek Adventures PDFs from when I bought the PDF set in Jun 2017. It was a preorder and the last PDF was released around Mar 2020 so almost three years for full delivery and somewhere in between it switched from delivery by Modiphius's system to delivery via DriveThruRPG.

Fri Jul 17 2020

Sleep 01:00 to 04:00. 11:00 to 13:00.

• Lots of Internet problems for many people. I heard that Cloudflare lost a server or something.
