@StravaSupport is there anything wrong with route suggestions?

I'm living a normal area with many options, yet for 10-11km I only get suggestions of 6-7km.

This is ridiculous.
Suggestions were much better in the past, but somehow your algorithm changed.

[Steven @gobino]

Hey @Strava, this is not cool.

Will you remind me of every premium feature that I'll be unable to use once my subscription runs out?

It's still 288 days!

If anything, I'll be more convinced not to renew.

[Steven @gobino]

@heymartineellis The new iPad OS has improved support for handwriting so worth a look before looking at other apps.

[Steven @gobino]

@entrpswn @culturedcode I recently moved back to it for everything personal, due to its upcoming view.

No other app has this and it makes it just so easy to look at my upcoming schedule and plan tasks accordingly.

[Steven @gobino]

@heymartineellis Thanks for sharing.

I saw them, but a few prompts were not up my alley so decided to take another one.

[Steven @gobino]

I really love photography, yet don't practice it enough.

I've therefore decided to take on a daily August challenge (thanks @heymartineellis for the inspiration) and will report about it on my Bear blog.

In case you're interested, have a look here

@alliekmiller Which apps do you use for dictation?

[Steven @gobino]

@bethmcclelland_ @mymind Interesting. Seems quite some work if I read it, but likely it comes naturally to you.

I like it as well but testing a bit how I can use it next to Obsidian where I keep everything (still believing in the file over app mindset).

[Steven @gobino]

Who actively uses @mymind?
And for what purpose?

I've been testing with and it has an interesting approach, however, I'm not sure if and how it could fit in my current pkm workflow.

[Steven @gobino]

@chuckbuildsit @mymind Do you use any other pkm to store knowledge and information?

Or do you only use mymind and put everything in there?

[Steven @gobino]

@LukeKenneth3 @RobertHaisfield Hm,seems I needed to edit the prompt of local chat to get good output.

Without too much I got responses in Spanish.

[Steven @gobino]

@LukeKenneth3 @RobertHaisfield Is there anything you need to do to get good output?

Every time, I use these apps with a downloaded model (like Mistral) and say hi, I get a lof of jibberish back. Responses in Spanish or a full irrelevant text.

[Steven @gobino]

@productive_will @funnelcapture Do you also use it with your daily notes?

[Steven @gobino]

@productive_will I'm still consuming a lot of content via rss.
Perhaps I'm old school 😁

Have you ever tried @reederapp?
That's what I use (also it's new beta) and love alongside @ReadwiseReader (when I want to highlight and remember.

[Steven @gobino]

@BraydonCoyer @mymind Yea, it's auto tagging, quickness and search make it appealing to use it more.

And was thinking the same to use for quick offload and review afterwards.

I only need to ensure I use it efficiently and not as something extra to manage.

[Steven @gobino]

@ArcMembership @arcinternet Thanks for the feedback.

[Steven @gobino]

Hey @arcinternet, is it by design that profiles and plugins are not synced to other devices?
Or is this a bug?

I got a temporary pc and having to re-install everything is too tedious.

fyi, I also tried to log it via support but got an error on submission.

[Steven @gobino]

@BiaResearcher From time to time yes.

But I've indeed found this to be my superpower as well.

With enough sleep I can do anything.

With too few I'm procrastinating all day.

[Steven @gobino]

@heymartineellis Nice decision!

Sleep champion probably because you stopped with alcohol 😉

Using such a watch was an eye-opener that got me to stop drinking completely.

[Steven @gobino]

I really like the Claude 3.5 Sonnet updates! The new artifacts feature is super useful, and now being able to pin chats for quick access is a game-changer.

I don't understand why OpenAI hasn't added this yet.
