The coffee machine at work has broken. Shit’s about to get stabby.

Well done, capitalism.
I need some sort of cargo rack for my acoustic bike, so I can carry my backpack. I’ve narrowed it down to 2 options.
Kinda insane.
The Bad Batch was anything but bad. Loved the story, the character development and most of all, the Kiwi voice actors.
How well do you really know the back of your hand? I’ve had two hands for many decades but doubt I’d be able to pick them out of a line-up.
One of my favourite things about my steel pan, aside from my constant experimentation with seasoning, is having zero concerns with using metal cooking implements. Non-stick pans are so bad. Buy a steel pan.
The new base iPad (not Air or Pro) is better than my 2021 iPad Pro in every way except the refresh rate of the screen and the camera/LiDAR sensor. It’s an absolute bargain.
No, Mr Yorrike, you don’t need to get in to mechanical keyboards and bonsai trees.
Dropped my 2020 iPad Pro last night in a way that I’ve done many times before. Except this time it hit something on the way down and shattered the screen. Apple don’t offer official service for iPads that old, so it was off to my reliable fixit place: “No problem, $320, will be ready tomorrow”.
I’m currently fermenting a Belgian Strong Blonde ale which I’ve called Du, Duvel, Duvel Mich.
The ABV? Nine!
First ride on an acoustic bike what must be over a decade, and after riding an electric bike for 5 years - so much fun, so light, and a lot to get used to. Because no electric motor means it’s all on me to pedal.
The rule of riding bikes is the correct number of bikes to own is n+1, where n is the number of bikes you own. Which is a roundabout way of saying I bought a new bike.
Being the generous person I am and having loving parents, who I need to do tech support for, I sold them my M2 MacBook Air for a huge discount. Their old Laptop was dying after 8 years of solid service. Now, my question is, do I need a laptop at all? Like it’s nice to have, but do I need one?
I know, deeply, as a fan of science fiction, that’s it’s a reflection of the present. But can anyone recommend any sci-fi TV series that aren’t dystopian hellscapes? I finished a rewatch of Deep Space Nine last night and I want some hopeful sci-fi to continue before I rewatch more Trek.
Terrible news. I just pulled an incredible shot of coffee from the work espresso machine and now I’ll be chasing that high forever.
It started out well, but one update in and Home Assistant has broken the 3 hours worth of work I’d put in over the weekend. I’m absolutely over this smart home bullshit. It doesn’t work. And no, I don’t want to solder in jump wires and flash the bios on my lightbulbs. Just ridiculous.
Just filleted a fish for the first time in my life. Now to open a Tinder profile to attract the ladies.
I’ve come to the conclusion I can’t brew IPAs. So I won’t brew IPAs any more. I can brew really nice anything else. But hop heavy beers don’t work well for me and my brewing setup/water.
Just did The Decaf Project while watching the cricket. A dream day. My first coffee tasting and really interesting how different each one was (3 decafs using 3 different processes plus one normal caffeinated). I’d now like to drink more decaffeinated coffee, because it’s good.
I just watched the final of Star Trek Lower Decks and it was amazing. 5 seasons and probably one of the best Star Treks. Right up there with TNG, DS9 and SNW.
Today marks six years since I deleted my Facebook account. I’ve had absolutely zero regrets.
I bought this tiny 2 TB SSD yesterday. It’s blazing fast and takes up the same volume as an AirPods case. What a time to be alive. I could have bought a 4 TB portable HDD for the same money, but I only need around 1 TB for carting data around and backing things up. So I have room to spare.
I got a few little gadgets for Xmas. Can I just say, death to micro USB. Damn connector should be outlawed or we’ll never be rid of it.
Unless you’re dealing with historical dates prior to 1970, there’s absolutely no reason your database or data set should use any time or date format that isn’t unix epoch.
Convert it to a human readable format later. Dealing with dates that aren’t epoch long ints is so annoying.
