  • I’ve got a few on my phone:

    • one for playing a sound when my phone is charged
    • another for starting my Streaks timer when certain reading apps are opened, so that I can track how long I read every day across apps automatically
    • when my Sleep schedule begins (when I’m going to bed), I automatically change the screen colour to grey to help prevent being distracted. When I wake up, it turns that off.
    • I have one HomePod, and I don’t use it much, but it has a temperature sensor and when that goes over 25C I get a notification so I know to turn on the AC

  • They’re dumb, but in a fun way. I created my own preroll video with some music and a silly title card. For me it’s a fun way of celebrating the work I put into my setup (again – I use a very dumb video), but also Plex’s preroll logic alludes me. It doesn’t run all the time.

    Mostly, however, I have trailers play ahead of my movie. It’s a good way of remembering what else is on my server.

    edit: also why, for the love of god, does Plex not pre-buffer the movie during either pre-roll or trailers? It makes no sense!
