I laughed more in one episode of the new season of Futurama than I did in 3 full seasons of Solar Opposites.

My stupid brain doesn’t think sleep before 1am is a thing, anymore.

Working in a VM running on a virtual desktop. What even is a computer!?

The Lower Decks / Strange New Worlds crossover episode was possibly the most wretchedly blatant fan service episode of Star Trek in history and I loved every damn second of it 🖖🏼

Double Star Trek night! Squeeee!

It’s Star Trek night! Yes! Who else is loving season 2 of Strange New Worlds?

Cola and banana are a great flavour combination, ice cream makers. Make a cola and banana ice cream you cowards.

Are you, like me, one of those nerds who’s always typed while looking at the keyboard, but through decades of use, can actually, secretly, touch type?

Google, like Microsoft before it, has gone from exciting consumer products to boring B2B drudgery.

I pay NZ$150 a year for Disney+, $140 for Duolingo, $54 for Amazon Prime TV… and an amount I don’t want to know for Apple One plus extra iCloud. But Chess.com wants $200 a year for its premium version which is way, way beyond ridiculous.

It’s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 2 premier night!

This old EMacs head is trying to learn VI/VIM. Who chose this as the default? What were they smoking!?

I got my bike back! Motor replaced! Yes! 🚲

The Apple product I’m most looking forward to isn’t the Vision Pro, but the iPhone 15 with USB-C.

It took me 3 months of research to settle on buying a TV - the Sony A80K. And then I found the LG QNED mini LED at 65” was half the price and bought that instead. Now I’m researching which kettle I should buy. 3 weeks so far. Why am I like this?

I hate Windows 10 and this HP laptop so much. Just work! Why does it take you 15 whole minutes to process that you have to wake up, and you’ve had the two monitors plugged in that you have almost all the time!? I want to defenestrate this thing and just use my MacBook.

I found my Switch in a box of sundry from last year’s house move! My brain can now relax while I ready myself for this year’s house move.

I want to play the new Zelda, but I’ve… somehow lost my Switch. Can’t think where it’d be. Looked in all the obvious places. I have the dock and a pro controller, they’re of little use.

I’ve lived in Pōneke (Wellington) most of my life. I’ve never known it to be as calm and wind-free as it has been for the last year or so. It’s statistically the windiest city on Earth. But the number of dead calm days recently is low-key freaking my out.

“MacOS Sonoma Drops Support for No-Suffix MacBook, and 2017 MacBook Pro and iMac” – that’s… short for Apple. 6 years…

On the Apple Vision Pro: for three thousand five hundred American dollars (not including the corrective lenses if you wear glasses like so many people), I could buy 3 very good 65” 4K TVs and position them around me. And still have ~$500. Waiting for the non-pro version in 2026.

Apple: people are suffering from near sightedness so here’s a health feature that’ll make it so you’re not too close to the screen

Also Apple: here’s a new device you literally strap to your face, with screens mere millimetres from your eyeballs.
