I’ve got a new Samsung, and it’s doing a repeated notification that I have no idea what it’s notifying me about. It’s a two-pitch tone [boobeep], and it’s driving me nuts when the phone is in earshot. Any idea how to figure out what it is?
[Early evening update]
For those wondering in comments, it’s a Galaxy A03s.
[September 26th update]
OK, it turned out to be BlueMail (an app I find highly overrated). I disabled notifications on it, and it quit doing it.

Set up a proxy server for Signal.
Some initial thoughts from Blake Powers, who seems to be continuing to recover from the lightning strike.

Why women stopped menstruating upon arrival at the Nazi death camps.

[Afternoon update]
Starship has to work, or SpaceX is at risk of bankruptcy.
First he called cost-plus contracts a “plague” on the agency, and now he’s praising SpaceX (while pretending that he wasn’t one of the “poo pooers” himself, who told Lori to “get her boy Elon in line”). And I love this:
“When there was the beginning of the space cargo and crew [programs], the two serious bidders were SpaceX and Boeing, and everybody poo-pooed SpaceX and said, ‘Oh, Boeing is a legacy company,'” Nelson said. “Well, guess who is about to make its sixth flight after its first test flight with astronauts, and guess who’s still on the ground?”
That’s got to leave a mark.
