We heard back from the Obtanium dev, and his advice is to delete the app from Obtainium and re-add it, but specify a release title filter this time. Or you could add it in one click via the crowdsourced app configs website: apps.obtainium.imranr.dev/?cat…

(Basically, there was a hiccup caused by the fact that repo now hosts two apps instead of one, but this should be a one-time occurrence.)

“For me to post a hurricane forecast and for people to accuse me of creating the hurricane by working for some secret Illuminati entity is disappointing and distressing, and it’s resulting in a decrease in public trust,” says Cappucci. He says he hasn’t slept in multiple days and is exhausted. This last week he received hundreds of messages from people accusing him of modifying the weather and creating hurricanes from space lasers.

...I'm sorry... wut? Is this for real...?

I've noticed that, for me and my wife at least, #Signal isn't always reliable for time sensitive messages. Even after exempting it from the Android power saving and everything it's almost like it goes to sleep sometimes and notifications don't pop until we open it up. The #XMPP app Conversations.im however is very reliable. Running a packet capture on my phone shows that when switching networks #Conversations immediately reconnects, but Signal doesn't, sometimes for several minutes.

This is my favourite episode so far. Kirsten found a collection of bizarre husband and wife facts from the 1890's and 1950's to read to us, and I react to them.
Are any of them applicable these days, or are they all simply of their time?
Which ones will make you stop in stunned horror or silence and exclaim 'What the actual?'
Let us know.

I appreciate the smaller indie developers, particularly in the Apple world, who specialise in a certain field and do it well, and take pride in being accessible. Rogue Amoeba is one. Their audio products are one of the best advertisements for Mac. Agile Tortoise is another, with the fabulous Drafts app. And another is Flexibits, who make the Fantastical Calendar app. This is a sound investment for management of the several calendars I keep. And they care a lot about #accessibility.
I use their Openings and proposals feature regularly in my professional life. Now they have added RSVP. Here’s the explanation from their blog. If you’ve not checked out Fantastical yet, I did a demo on Living Blindfully and they have plenty of videos and help guides. I highly recommend it.
