    I was having some problems with my Obsidian &amp;gt; Digital Garden MLB The Show 24 tracker; I tried fixing it but had issues. I went the nuclear route and restarted. So now it&amp;#39;s up again at https://franchise.lwgrs.cloud. Bases is now supported by Digital Garden! So I&amp;#39;m trying to incorporate those where it makes more sense than Dataview. Unfortunately table sizing is not responsive. I&amp;#39;ll have to see if I can style them to fit the content rather than squish everything. Got...

    Really hoping the remaining tulips we have at the front of our house open up today; I need some subjects to finish up my last roll of film! Also, great job surviving, tulips! We intended to dig up all the bulbs last year because the past couple of springs have been torture for them - guess we didn&amp;#39;t get all the bulbs after all. Nice to see some random flowers bloom. Life finds a way ;)

    @meadow is there a way to influence some more randomness to the letters? Two days in a row D is the centre letter. In fact many letters are a repeat from yesterday.

    @cygnoir Unsolicited emails regarding your podcast are all too common and started way before people started using AI slop. People looking to expand their brand just look for podcasts within appropriate categories and spam email. I have several book review requests for my reading podcast despite the fact that I choose my own books and A) have never done book reviews from solicitations B) never ask for people to submit books. Most of the time the books sent to me are 100% not something I would p...

    Going to try reducing my screen-on time for my phone today. Last few days I&amp;#39;ve been using it a lot and running the battery down prematurely. Yesterday was 3 hours+...normally I&amp;#39;m under 3 hours. 22 minutes so far today, let&amp;#39;s see how low I can go. #tech

    @82mhz It&#39;s like the prizes that used to come in cereal boxes! Incidentally are external Bluray readers a thing? Wouldn&#39;t mind digitizing those (currently I can only do DVDs)
