I'd like to bring back the QUIT! podcast (about helping people start something new). The timing feels right and there is new ground to be covered in 2023. I'll use Discord for the livestream and call-ins.

Did you listen before?

Would you listen live?

Would you call in?

@FedExHelp @fedex It seems like you've lost my package but the website says it's out for delivery after being motionless for 27 hours. Can you assist?

Do I know anyone who can help me find a (seemingly) rare children's book from the late 1960s/early 1970s?

[Dan Benjamin 👻 @danbenjamin]

@jdalrymple I would love to figure this out, too. It's not Windows, and it's not Linux.

Now that my kids are older, I mostly take photos of things I want to remind myself about, nutrition labels, parking spot at the airport, stupid things I want to share with a friend.

I have a pocket camera that I prefer to use if I am serious about taking pictures.

Unpopular opinion:I don’t care about my phone camera and would prefer a flat phone without a camera bump.

I am moving away from devices. Little social media. No “working on my phone.”

Instead I use a computer to do focused work.

Have any weird links, personal projects, or other oddities I can link in the first edition of The Unusual, coming next week?

@8BitDo How about Mac support? You're kind of missing your target demographic without that.

I'm about to list my Fujifilm X100V with a bunch of customizations on eBay unless someone here is interested.

Can anyone with insider info on the upcoming iPad mini (and/or Air) please DM me with any secrets?

Where can I find a nice table/desk that has a white laminate top and 4 independent legs?
