Just to emphasise (and yes, I know it’s early). But it’s so sweet seeing two thirds of the cricket triad doing poorly. How’s constantly playing each other and no one else working out for you, England, Australia and India?

In Richie Benaud voice: Marvellous.
Quinton De Kock’s century helps South Africa hammer Australia at Cricket World Cup
Paramount seems to be in financial strife. Paramount owns Star Trek. It’d be great if Apple bought Paramount or offered them a chunk of money for the rights to Star Trek. I’d rather Apple were funding Star Trek (think Silo, Foundation, Severance). Just feels like a good fit.
Cthulhu’s armpits, Windows and its inconsistent behaviours are absolutely maddening. Right click to select copy? No, not with this specific text for some reason. Zoom in on this document? Nope, you’ll be zooming the side panel instead. I’d be so much more efficient on a Mac.
First full run with my new brakes on my Benno Boost today and holy shit it’s nice to be able to stop. Now to buy a giant sack of brake pads from Amazon so I can replace them in 5 minutes whenever I need to.
Thanks to the Wellington City Council funded Bike Space, I now have the know-how to replace my disc brakes, including adjusting the hydraulic brake pressure/fluid. Skill upgrade! Also, my bike has brakes again, which is… advantageous.
Voted. Took 3 minutes all up.
Imagine you post a post here on mb, and have an image with alt text. And you cross post to Blue Sky. That alt text? It ends up on Blue Sky too! Thanks @manton and everyone else who got this done. It’s an accessibility power move.
I was intending on voting on election day. But it’ll be quite a busy day, so I’ll just vote over the weekend instead. I love how voting in New Zealand is so much more open and relaxed than what I see from places overseas. People queueing for hours to cast their vote.
🏏 Shit yes. With an absolute downtrowl like this, my beloved Black Caps should just be given the World Cup until the end of the tournament.

I’ll honestly consider voting for a party that wants to keep daylight saving all year and make NZST UTC+13.
Went to bed before midnight last night. Unreasonably proud of myself.
After joining Blue Sky I’ve come to the conclusion that Mastodon isn’t for normies. The double @‘s just as a start are horrible. Much prefer the Blue Sky @ subdomain formatting. It’s easier to grok and looks way, way better.

As a technical professional, I have an unreasonable love for ssh. It’s such a great thing. So essentially useful.
I see Winter 2, The Revenge has hit our fair isles. I shouldn’t have taken my shorts out of long term storage the other week.
A reminder, it’s daylight saving, not daylight savingS.
Ahsoka is just terrible.
Wow the new WatchOS is weird. Seems to have blasted all my watch faces away. And switched how you get to anything. Not a fan yet. But I imagine I’ll get used to it.
Blu-tak is just excellent for cleaning AirPods and their cases.
Started watching Silo last night. If this ends up as yet another “people in some kind of experiment while the rest of the world gets on” a la The Village, Ascention, and a thousand other sci-fi stories, I’m going to be pissed.
For my fellow cable neat freaks out there.

Do I spend catastrophic amounts of money on a new iPhone, or do I spend an OK amount and just get the battery in this iPhone 12 mini replaced?
