When last we talked about TuneIn Premium’s disappearing content, I said that when I published that post it was quite likely I was going to end my subscription. Well, I did. My final month ran out about a week ago, and yesterday I got this email from them. We really think you should give TuneIn …

I Don’t Think TuneIn Wants My Money Anymore
When they dropped audiobooks from premium a couple of years ago, I was ultimately ok with it. I wasn’t happy to see them go, but I didn’t listen to them nearly as much as I thought I might. It was nice to know they were there when I wanted them, but I mostly used the …

We Can Make What?
When Rogers Ignite changed their slogan to…this, we couldn’t figure out what it was saying. Was it we give Mike a mop? We can like Mark? We can go to Mars? We can make a month? We can make a monk? Guaca macca mole? We can make a march? We eventually settled on “We can …
How In the World Do You Shop Online For Clothes?
I’m not just asking for the benefit of blind people like me, I really want to know how someone does it in general without it becoming an enormous pain in the ass. To be clear, I’m not talking about buying things like funny t-shirts or sports hats. I don’t even think I’m talking about underwear, …

This Is The Nicest Thing Someone Has Said About Us In A While
I didn’t know they made comment spam like this anymore. I have no idea how it made it through the filter, but I’m almost glad it did. It has me weirdly nostalgic for the old days. Hi there, performed everyone read it two times ?? Made use of to accomplish! I was actually searching for …

Virtual Fireworks
I got word about this and I can’t decide if it’s pretty neat or neat with a touch of creepy. But still, it’s mostly neat. Because we can’t have throngs of humanity smushing into parks and watching the fireworks, the government of Canada decided to put on a virtual display. On July 1, wherever you …
Even When You’re Isolated You’re Still Out In The World, Councillor Hot Mic
Update: If you don’t feel like watching or skimming five hours of meeting for 30 seconds of action, you can watch just the fun part here. So remember the olden days of a few months ago when we all had to do things like deal with people in person and we, at least the functional …

Netflix Is About To Nuke Your Account If You Haven’t Been Using It
I have no idea who has Netflix and isn’t watching it right now, but if you happen to fall into that group or know someone who might, this seems like a thing you’re going to want to know. In a very uncommon move by a subscription-based service, Netflix announced Thursday that it will begin canceling …

Nobody Likes An Hour Long Advertisement, YouTube
I went off about this long ass ads on YouTube business at least once before, but I’m going to need to do it again here because holy shit, these people just set some new standards. Thankfully I can skip ads now unlike seven years ago when that was written. If I couldn’t, this post would …

I’m Not Usually One To Argue That Too Much Choice Is Bad, But…
Fragmented Streaming Landscape Keeps Piracy Relevant, Research Suggests I could have told them this for free, had they asked. It should be obvious to anyone with a lick of common sense. The streaming services are great, but the entire concept suffers from the same issue that made everyone hate their cable companies. A good streaming …
