Sleep 0300 to 1100. 90 min nap. (9-1/2 hours)

• Data Robotics sent me an email saying that Drobo is currently not compatible with the upcoming macOS Ventura, adding an ominous "We cannot guarantee compatibility with future OS updates." I think they declared chapter 13 bankruptcy (reorganization) but if that doesn't work then it's real bankruptcy.

Sleep 1400 to 1630. (2-1/2 hours)

• Cooled off today but for some reason feels muggy.
• So I did stay up last night after DDO and watched the end of Anna Cramling's 24-hour stream. Then an hour later Botez Abroad started at 0600. Then Nemo came on for an early stream at 0900. Crashed about 1400 but didn't want to sleep too much so I can sleep early tonight and catch Botez Abroad tomorrow morning.

Sleep 0030 to 0530. 3 hour nap. (8 hours)

• Today my MBP seems to be running fine. I played DDO while watching a Twitch stream and a TV app video and DDO ran fine. It's a nice day today (high 73F) and my apartment felt cool so I suspect ambient temperature, which might mean a fan problem (or the ducts are getting blocked with dust).

Sleep 0500 to 1400. (9 hours)

• My MBP auto powers when I open the lid which I find slightly annoying. There is a terminal command to disable this which I found on iFixit MBP 16" 2019 Lower Case Replacement.
• I watch Twitch on three iOS devices: iPhone SE (2016) - works great even though screen is small, iPad (5th generation) - same processor, graphics and memory size as iPhone SE but video sometimes stalls for a few seconds or even stops altogether, iPad Pro 10.5 inch - works the best in single app mode but does not support picture-in-picture mode so can't watch Twitch and play Raid Shadow Legends at the same time.
• Wait, I got it to work on my iPad Pro. It doesn't do PinP automatically. In Twitch tap the multitab icon (...) then select side-by-side then select the second app. Once in that mode you can switch apps normally and the PinP window keeps running. Before I depended on going to home and having PinP start automatically.

Sleep 0830 to 1500. (6-1/2 hours)

• BotezLive stream at 0100, because they're in Romania, and ended about 0730.
• Read about using a vacuum to clean out dust from a MBP. If you close it and turn it over you can see the exhaust/intakes are on the back and sides because there is dust accumulated there. Used my vacuum to suck out the dust then an air can to blow a bit inside (mixed reviews about whether blowing dust in is good or not). Let's see if that helps.
• Handbrake conversion fps can vary a fair amount but yesterday it was doing low 100's fps (which is double what it was doing during the heatwave) and today after blowing out the dust it's 170's fps with same CPU usage (a bit over 1000%).

Sleep 0030 to 0430, 1030 to 1530. (9 hours)

• Bundle of Holding: Troika Worlds presents this rules-light weird RPG and some supplements. I already have the main rules and one of the bundle supplements. Don't have Very Pretty Paleozoic Pals and less interested in third party stuff so I'll skip.

Fri Sep 16 2022

Sleep 0030 to 0630 (6 hours)

• Mutants & Masterminds 1E and 2E mega-bundle ($30), with almost everything released for those editions (current is 3E), I assume minus licensed stuff (such as Wildcards supplement which I own, though maybe that is for 3E).
