Well, this is a drag. Just discovered that all my Checkins at WithKnown show an error because they are not authenticated at Stadia Maps. I hope I can find the problem and fix it.

I’ve just set up a couple of Alfred custom web searches, prompted by Wouter Groeneveld’s post How To Search The Internet at brainbaking.com/post/2024… No idea yet whether I these will ever imprint themselves on my muscle memory, though I do want to try.

Such an amazing chain of events with such interesting consequences. Alas, neither of my parents were the diarying kind, but I definitely appreciate my own as an aide-memoire. Seeing what I did on this day is always fun.

Interesting to read Devastatia’s IndieWeb Carnival entry, which opens with an account of The Breakfast Club, the day after we saw The Holdovers. We were talking about great high school movies of the past, and of course TBC was among them (also If, The History Boys etc). As a Boomer, I wonder how those and The Holdovers (set in 1971) come across to recent generations.

Unable to login to Monocle
Monocle would not allow me to login using this site, saying there was no microsub endpoint. This was because in upgrading Known, I had forgotten that I had added the link to microsub before. I had also forgotten which of the hundreds of template files I had to edit in order to do that. In the end I found it with a brute-force search for all files ending in .tpl.php The file in question lives at ./IdnoPlugins/IndiePub/templates/default/indiepub/shell/head.tpl.php.Having found the correct file to edit, the rest was straightforward thanks to [excellent instructions.

Smoother sailing: Studying audio imperfections in Steamboat Willie
It has been a nerdy late afternoon, spelunking into quite a few rabbit holes that I would never normally have discovered. Like this post about correcting the fluttering audio on the soundtrack of Steamboat Willie, thanks to ooh.directory. I even understood some of it.
