There’s nothing like trying to carefully grab a 1pm grab target on a 4K screen. So much carpal tunnel pain. Should be illegal.

MacOS: changing the file name of a file in Finder while it’s open in an application? No problems, I’ve got this.
Windows: What are you doing!? You can’t change that value! How will I know what file you’ve got open! I’m calling the cops!
Episode 1 of Season 2 of Star Trek Picard was… incredibly good.
This evening’s sunset in Pōneke.
I wish I enjoyed tea. It’s so much less hassle to make a good cup of tea over a good cup of coffee.
I can knock out a pretty good beer these days. But I really should turn the garden into a food supply. A bit preppery? Sure.
I know people who work at desks think that Apple will remove the lightning port and go all wireless charging on the iPhone rather than switching to USB-C. But they really should switch to USB-C. If you’re not at a desk, you need a quick, reliable and solid way to charge.
My guesses for what Species 10 C will be in Star Trek: Discovery are the following:
Firstly, I have a new job (yay!) Secondly, they’re all good with me working from home (double yay!) Thirdly, I’m working from home this morning (triple yay!) And Fourthly, I currently have 5 seperate screens shining business stuff at my face on my desk (yay?)
What a view on my evening walk. In the distance, the mountains of Te Waipounamu. In the mid distance, Te Moana-o-Raukawa, and in the foreground the suburb of Island Bay in Pōneke.
My first crack at an XPA. I’ve brewed plenty of IPAs and APAs before, so this is just a touch lower ABV and pulling back on the buttering hops so it’s nice and fruity.
Just watched the final of The Expanse. And though I’m disappointed that it’s ended before getting through all of the books, it did end quite well. Now I need to read more of the books (I’ve read a couple of the Novella and the first two in the main series)
No! Urgh. The final episode was so perfectly the end.
The Book of Boba Fett was 7 episodes total. Half of those episodes were bonus episodes of The Mandalorian. The Boba Fett story was undercooked and needed filler.
My mum is going through things and found a book with Christmas and birthday wish lists. This is a page of my wish lists.
You should seriously be watching The Afterparty if you have Apple TV+. It’s incredible.
Let’s get lagering!
Since I can’t do much today due to booster fatigue, I may as well brew. Today’s batch is a simple, straight forward lager. No adjuncts, no big hop profiles, just a easy drinking, low ABV summer lager.
It’s the day after I got my booster vaccine and I can barely move. Had a nap after breakfast so I’m feeling a little better bet everything hurts. Rather this in a managed, safe way than the alternative, though.
The problem with signing up for iCloud email in the year 2022 AD is all the good email addresses are already taken. And any good variation is also taken by the apparently hundreds of other people who have the same weird name as you.
Just shaved off my beard. For king, country and family (and so I can get a seal when using a face mask and reduce my risk of sickness and death).
The last year has been a bit disappointing for me with my favourite science fiction TV - both The Expanse and Final Space were cancelled. I have 3 more episodes of The Expanse to watch, which I’m trying to savour like a fine wine.
Well, it was good while it lasted. Now I’ll have to pay, I can finally completely cut out google on all but my free gmail account if I so choose.
Close all those browser tabs you’ve had open for weeks or months. If you haven’t read it by now you probably never will. Go on, treat yourself.
“Where could I even buy one of those?” was solved by the internet, and the problem now is “Where could I even buy one of those that isn’t Amazon or Etsy?”
