Maybe I do need to get an iPhone Duo
Duo-Man offers the complete walkman experience on the iPhone Duo. Open the Duo to pick and 'insert' the cassette, Close the Duo to start listening. Yes, I actually recorded the button clicks and static noise from a real Walkman! It was fun making this at @bitrig hacks today.

Love this! @gruber @gilbert @djrosent are the masters of doing ad reads that you actually want to listen to! I own at least 10 products I learned about on The Talk Show.
Dithering is my favorite podcast. I listen to every episode. I've been reading @daringfireball for over 20 years. @djrosent and I first bonded over sending each other @stratechery articles in 2014. This is unbelievably cool and a complete surprise when I woke up this morning.

Yes! The same thing dawned on me. Hilarious.
Mike McDaniel really on the sidelines lookin like the Unabomber and is about to drop a manifesto instead of a playbook. 😂

Total travel disaster of a travel morning with both of my trains from NYC to EWR out of service. I have to call out @united for helping me rebook after my missed flight. Thank you!

Ohio State is the most deserving champion in the history of college football. They’ve beaten every single team in the top 8 of the final rankings except Georgia. And they did it with an average margin of victory of 15.5 points. Ryan Day rewrote the narrative. He’s a legend.

Rest in Peace, Thomas Kurtz. You changed my life forever.

Thanks Gabriel Aldaz of the Accidental Bicycle Tourist podcast. I got to spend an hour with him chatting about all of my memorable bicycling adventures! open.spotify.com/episode/7cU…

Wow, what a night! #proudpapa
What an incredible night. Never in our wildest dreams did we think we'd do an arena show with @finkd, @eldsjal, and @emilychangtv... plus @iammiketaylor live!! Huge thank you to @jpmorgan and most importantly to all 6,000 of you who came and made it so special.

First Waymo ride last night. Felt like a science fiction movie. I’m living in the future.

Great article about an exciting company Blomso I mentored at @Techstars this spring. Working with Kalib Riddle and Roan Kovach and seeing their vision come to life was incredibly fun and exciting.

This year I am riding the Pan Ohio Hope ride to support the Cleveland Hope Lodge, providing lodging, community, and support for patients facing difficult cancer treatment. Won’t you please support my efforts by donating to this exceptional cause? main.acsevents.org/goto/alan…

I just finished riding GOBA 2024 and was so inspired by the culture, I wrote this blog post: ajgilbert.medium.com/goba-cu… If you enjoy reading it, please consider donating to my Pan Ohio Hope Ride efforts to support the American Cancer Society. tinyurl.com/372dbrbe

Coming home from Seattle, visiting my grandson (oh, and his parents). Already enjoying my first flight on @AlaskaAir

Recently discovered the @AcquiredFM podcast and it's an absolute gem! 🌟 Finished the NBA, Nike, Costco, and Microsoft episodes. Amazing insights and stories all around! Highly recommended!

This year I am riding the Pan Ohio Hope Ride. Like many of you, I've seen vibrant lives cut short, devastating loss of loved ones, and terrible suffering caused by cancer. That’s why I continue to ride, donate, and fundraise. Please help me end cancer now. main.acsevents.org/goto/alan…

I've been pretty quiet on twitter/x but this is just too good to not share.
If Trump were smart he’d make an Apprentice-style game show out of this. Make the VP candidates demean themselves performing stunts and kissing his feet on camera every week. Then at the end of each episode Trump fires one of them, tells them why he doesn’t like them, and they walk-of-shame out of Mar-a-Lago into an Uber X. The coda is backseat camera footage of the loser telling the camera how much they still love Trump. politicalwire.com/2024/04/12…

It is hard to imagine something more "big-company" than pre-announcing your new login page. There's nothing actionable for me. I can't learn more. I can't elect to keep the old one. What's the point? Feels like 2007 Microsoft.
