So while the new editor seems better you can’t edit posts. Obviously this is because we’re only 20% working. I can’t wait for a native iOS app as well.

Giving the new noise.app a crack. One of the things I disliked about the old one was the editor. So far I like this one. But the real test will come once I’ve posted this one.
Now that the dust is settling, it’s going to be interesting to see what sort of monarch King Charles III is going to be. #royals #monarchy #king #queen

Idiots do this all the time. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve almost been skittled because of idiots running the give way.
Just received a letter with regards the bankruptcy stuff with Celsius. Haven’t read it yet but would be interesting to see what comes of it.
My first long form post in a while. https://www.publish0x.com/lowededwookie/how-to-beat-a-bully-xxzwrmj #bullying #bullies #fighting #winner
It seems I have a stomach bug. It’s not a huge one but the 💩 and 🤮 is a little irritating. The worst part is actually Mrs Wookie’s germiphobia. She can’t stand puking. I frankly feel so much better.
Stuff like this is what scared the hell out of me about becoming a dad. All it takes is one person to get the wrong idea and you're in trouble despite you not having done anything wrong. https://www.stuff.co.nz/technology/300668344/google-bans-father-in-us-after-ai-flags-medical-photos-of-child-as-possible-abuse #parenting #howtodad #dadlife
So just checked out KuCoin because the app was giving me a bunch of notifications which I normally ignore because KuCoin is largely useless to me. It does have a nice countdown to the ETH merge. If this doesn’t fix the fee issues with ETH then ETH can kiss my butt.
Just went to a careers expo. Put my name down for interest in working for the local waterworks company. It's inline with me wanting to be a plumber but has a few cooler opportunities down the line I feel. Could be interesting. #employment #jobs #plumbing #careers
Hahahahaha, used the Botometer tool to see if my Twitter account is listed as a bot. According to this tool it is. https://botometer.osome.iu.edu According to me, who hardly uses Twitter, this account is DEFINITELY NOT a bot account. #wrong #badinfo #useless
Woohoo, today marks the start of things calming down at work. I didn't get the branch manager's job but I'm actually glad about that. I'm not really management material. I'm kind of a "get things done" kind of guy. #work #management #calm
Apple posts $83 billion quarter and this is what happens to its stock price. The markets are full of scumbags and retards. #apple #stocks
Man @Pantera99 is weird. He commented on a post I made making the claim I had rejected his advice and lost my money as a result. Here’s my post: https://noise.cash/post/jgjnp52s26w0 Tell me how this has anything to do with Celsius or me losing all my money. I mean, first I mentioned Uphold and NOT Celsius. Second I’ve not lost anything. Third, where is any mention of anything about him? After having read a number of his posts I feel NO ONE should take his advice. He seems to be unhinged and will try and destroy anyone who he doesn’t agree with. So for the second time I’ve been blocked by him and I didn’t even do anything to him this time.
Uphold now has FORTH. I wonder how long it will be until it gets AMPL. Then I’ll be able to do something with my Publish0x tokens finally.
A whole resort to myself? Holy cow, the stuff you’d find at an abandoned resort would be worth the visit itself. https://i.stuff.co.nz/travel/travel-troubles/129388759/kiwi-travellers-warning-after-booking-abandoned-airbnb-in-bali
To all you anti-Apple people out there, you suck. You don't hate Apple for any good reason other than they are a huge corporation. That's a dumb mentality and one that allows mediocre technology to thrive. THIS is why I love Apple's products... I took a photo with the camera. Because iPhones have ON DEVICE AI my iPhone could recognise that what I took a photo of was of text. I can select that text and choose Translate. This can be done in iOS 15 but on this occasion I had upgraded to Public Beta of iOS 16. On iOS 15 the text selection isn't even close to good and the translation requires Apple's servers. On iOS 16 EVERYTHING is done on device, it never leaves the phone. This function alone should be the reason every iPhone owner that can should upgrade to iOS 16 when it comes out. This level of AI on a phone isn't even close to being matched by Apple's competitors. It's also why I think those claiming Apple has a VR headset in the works are idiots. VR is a useless gimmick. AR on the other hand will make us see the world more clearly. That is far cooler than stupid virtual worlds. #apple #AR #AI #cool


Sad news today. My wife called saying her grandad died. It was expected but not any easier to deal with. He was an amazing woodworker and I’d have loved to have spent more time learning from him. Hopefully after his resurrection. https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/when-you-die/
Does this happen at your house? As the hot tap gets to hot there is a distinct change in sound as the water leaves the tap. Just listening for this sound I can tell from the other end of the house when the water is hot.
I've decided to return to posting in Publish0x after the recent announcement that they are bringing back ETH. I'm glad they still have AMPL but I feel it won't really take off until ETH goes to proof of stake. I fear that's 20 years away at this rate though. https://www.publish0x.com/lowededwookie/honey-im-home-xeerovo?a=8mepNZpbMy #Publish0x #writing #blogging
It's been a while since I've explored a new OS, but with my 2011 MacBook Pro well out of support and basically munted, I've decided to give ChromeOS Flex a crack. I know I'll hate it, but it would be a fun little test. #OS #test #operatingsystem #Chrome
Been starting to use Brave again. Stopped using because I never seemed to get the payments. It paid me out for what I earned last month so I'm going to give it another go for a while. That being said, I still prefer Safari. It doesn't feel like a bloated lump like anything Chrome based does. #Safari #Brave #browser
I slept from 8:00pm to 1:00am this morning. I also slept yesterday from 2:00pm to 5:30pm. That’s a total of 8 and a half hours sleep. That’s actually equal to the entire amount of sleep I’ve had all week. On Thursday I got 2 hours of sleep for the entire day. Hopefully my plans workout next week and that will never happen again.
A recent employee left. Everyone hated her because she hated everyone. As team leader I wrote her a letter to basically apologise for the perception of me that she had and I gave her $100 as a leaving gift because I felt bad that the company had not organised something official for her. This was left for me this morning and frankly ruined my morning but the good thing is that I’ve lost nothing. The letter is screwed up because I threw it away instantly after reading but then I decided people like this need to be outed for the absolute trolls they are. Here’s the kicker. This is my favourite part of her letter: “I find it hard to believe your words. Too many times I was ignored, fed half truths or misinformation, or blatantly lied to and that is something I can never forgive.” This is coming from a person who was caught on camera creating a leave form with the explicit purpose of getting me in trouble. She literally committed legal fraud to get me in trouble and when questioned about it she said she was cleaning behind the racks. My wife is a fastidious cleaner and not once have I ever seen her wipe a dirty rag on a piece of paper to clean the rag. A dry rag I might add. I’m glad she’s gone and to her I say this: “100% of problems you face involve you”
Been working since 9pm last night, had 2 hours sleep, now off to jump on a motorcycle for at least 4 hours. That will be 6 hours longer than I’m supposed to be working for and all because we have no staff prepared to pick up slack.
Great start to the day. Get to work at 3:15am only to realise the code I had been using was deactivated when my manager left. Set the alarm off, wasted 20 minutes waiting for someone to come. I hate Mondays
While Apple's iCloud Keychain works on older Macs, this article doesn't state you can't setup 2FA on older Macs. You'll need an iPhone, iPad, or macOS device that is running latest OS. https://appleinsider.com/articles/21/12/29/how-to-use-icloud-keychain-apples-built-in-and-free-password-manager #security #password #2FA
I'm so retro. While everyone around me is getting that new fandangled COVID, all I've got is a common cold. The common cold - the Nokia of the disease world. Ubiquitous, reasonably strong, and does nothing. #covid #health #disease #pandemic
You can't even imagine how amazing this is. https://jalopnik.com/paraplegic-motogp-champion-wayne-rainey-rides-again-at-1849109481 Wayne Rainey was paralysed from the chest down in a serious crash at Misano in 1992 after hitting a safety feature for cars. To see a rider in that condition back on a bike is one of the greatest things ever. #motorcycling #racing #health #miracle
Damn it. Five tests in seven days and still no COVID. I’m supposed to be unhealthy because I’m overweight with high cholesterol but Noooooooo, I still can’t catch a cold. Health professionals don’t know what they’re talking about. It’s stuff like this and the fact that I should be dead 27 times over that makes me wonder if I really am indestructible. It would answer a number of things.
