Another Podcast Idea

### Starting another Podcast I'm a professional when it comes to anxiety. Professional sufferer. I deal with it in ways that allow me to function. * Keeping busy * Working hard * Drums * Talking to someone or out loud Anxiety happens in the past or future. It's not always rational. Conclusion - I feel that talking about the biggest problem in my life could help others, and maybe even myself. ### Closing Remarks I'd like to thank you for putting time aside to listen to the podcast.

Amazon in Flames

### Intro Hello everyone and welcome to the Manly Hanley Podcast. This is the Podcast with no limits on what we'll cover. This is Season 6, Episode 1 I'm your host, Randy. Have a snack, sit back, and relax. This Episode was recorded on Monday, February 19th, 2024 --- ### Amazon's standards just seem lower #### Repetitive overpromise and underdelivering I order Amazon all over the country for different people, and myself included, so this is not limited to one region in the USA. The pattern goes a bit like this. The item shows that it'll arrive next morning if you pay the $35 minimum. Most things I buy on Amazon will be above that amount. If I really need the item, and my total isn't $35 or more, I'll often add something to my cart that I'll be ordering very soon, anyway. More times than not, the next day, I'll get the "Running Late" shipping status on that item, which eventually changes into "Tomorrow by 8 pm" or something along those lines. This is not okay. This is a company I'm also paying a subscription to every year. I now find myself finding anyway I can to order items through other companies that will deliver, even without a yearly fee. One that comes to mind, strangely, is Walmart. And their delivery times have never overpromised and underdelivered for me. I don't want to order from Walmart, but here I am doing so. --- ### Amazon Plans to Charge for Alexa? Good luck with that. It'll probably work, if people fall for it, as I'm not surprised if they do. As most of us have been conditioned into having our money siphoned away to a subscription or Software as a service, Amazon would like to take advantage of that condition by manipulating us into paying for Alexa. Do you honestly want that overpriced oven timer in your kitchen, if it now wants to siphon a recurring monthly fee out of your account? #### What is Amazon's excuse for the potential cost they'll be passing onto users? Amazon's Senior VP of Devices - Dave Limp - (Great name) - Believes a paid service is inevitable until Alexa becomes "superhuman" enough to justify a monthly fee. No. Just be a fucking oven timer, or you're outta here. I do have more faith in people that I give the general public sometime. I will guess that many people are getting sick of subscription services leaching off their every pore. ### Closing Remarks I'd like to thank you for putting time aside to listen to the podcast.

Endless Search for the Perfect App

Since the beginning of this Podcast, I had been searching for the perfect note-taking app. I've tried dozens, starting with OneNote, Obsidian, a billion Linux-specific apps, Notepad, Notepad++, etc. The one I've used the longest has been Trilium. Many of the platforms were just great, but didn't hit every want I had with the process of creating a post. They required too much configuration time than I had available. As for my "Content Management System" I did land on “HUGO” as my favorite static site generator, but I wanted something that allowed me to manage the mess of content files that I'd eventually encounter when creating the documents. The absolute best I could find was the Front Matter extension for Visual Studio code. Is it perfect? Nope, but I've settled on it being the best possible application for my needs at this time. It allows me to scan folders in Visual Studio Code and set them as content directories, and then fill in the tedious meta data with no effort. That's a time saver! I like saving time - and this Extension brings content-creating functionality to an app that did not have it. Follow Randrums on twitter

The Rode Streamer X is Mine!

Why I purchased this when I have less free time than ever before. I bought a Streamer X. It's simple Does what I need. It takes the work out of having to tweak computer settings. Spending $400 on this thing will pay for itself in the amount of time I save. I'd like to thank you for putting time aside to listen to the podcast.

Trilium Is Solid

Trilium is My Reliable Note-Taking App It has not failed me once. This is in reference to backups. It has never crashed on me. I have it open for about 12 hours every single day. Open Source for the win. All of the other wins for this app are listed on their GitHub Page. I don't ever plan on ditching Obsidian.md as another note-taking app. That community is growing so quickly. I'd like to thank you for putting time aside to listen to the podcast. Follow Randrums on twitter I still use other note-taking apps.
