Simon macOS app 💻 #MediaMonday

2021-07-05 · dejal · MediaMonday

A pro Mac utility to monitor websites and servers for changes or failures. Yes, it’s an app I wrote, so I may be biased in recommending it, but for those who need that functionality, it is very useful.

On the Dejal blog: a bug fix for Simon is now available, version 5.0.1.

On Friday (during our house inspection) we went to a favorite restaurant for lunch, McMenamins Roadhouse, maybe for the last time. It has fascinating architecture, and pleasant gardens.

We now have some very nice signage and brochures for our house… which has already sold, contingently. The market is so busy at present, can’t even get the marketing fully in place before it sells. It is still on the market until the buyer’s place sells, though.

The answer to today’s #WhatsItWednesday question (which nobody correctly guessed): it’s the controls for my height-adjustable desk. The number buttons are height presets, and the screen shows the height in inches. Not that I’ve used it in standing mode for a few years.

Let’s play What’s It Wednesday again. What do you think this is? #WhatsItWednesday

We boarded Rory over the weekend, so she could be in comfortable air conditioning instead of being carted around in our car when we had to leave for house showings. When we picked her up yesterday, she had to get closer to us, getting stuck climbing over the back seat. 🐕🚗

Good news: after just six days on the market, our house has contingently sold. The buyer needs to sell their house before our sale is officially pending, but that shouldn’t take long in this market. 🎉

Mythic Quest TV series 📺 #MediaMonday

An excellent AppleTV+ comedy series set in a video game development studio, about the creators, developers, testers, and other staff.

With air temperatures reaching 107°F yesterday, we enjoyed some quality time in our pool, which was a comfy 84°F / 29°C thanks to its solar heating panels. 🌡

When we move, we’ll miss the glorious sunsets we get from our deck… though we’ll experience lots of different sunsets on the road. 🌅
