There’s so little I’m interested in on Amazon Ptime that I’m just going to unsubscribe and then sign up for a month or two every year and catch up on the odd shows I actually want to watch (Vox Machina and Invincible, basically).

I regret to inform you that if you grew up with the Back to the Future franchise, you’re now as old as Christopher Lloyd was when he played Dr Emmett Brown in those films.
Hey pocket frens. I need a recommendation for a travel coffee mug. I have a few requirements:
Are Sennheiser headphones still good?
Today is my Twitter leaveaversary. It’s been a genuine life improvement. You should try it.
Does anyone know if there’s a way to limit airdrop so it’ll only allow sending to people marked as VIPs? I don’t want to send random shit to people at work, or one of my neighbours.
I’ve become a PostgreSQL expert and I’m furious about it.
There’s one thing that’ll stop me buying a new iPhone. My eBike (which is how I get around, as I’m car-free), is making some weird sounds. It’s booked in for a service on Monday. Fingers crossed I have a working bike and a new iPhone on it’s way, later next week.
I’m planning on upgrading my iPhone 12 mini to a base-level 16. It’ll be a big upgrade (literally) because I love this mini, and the new standard phones are behemoths by comparison. And I’m seriously considering getting a pink one for some reason.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is beautiful to look at, but holy crap it’s slooooooooow. The episodes don’t need to be over an hour each. I feel like Amazon is literally trying to waste my time.
I’ve been using Windows at my job for well over two years now, after a 20 year break in using Linux for a few years and then macOS for 15 years. And I can say, without a doubt, that Microsoft Windows remains an absolute steaming pile of garbage.
If there’s any tech reviewers reading this. Please reset your expectations - the iPhone Pro is not the default iPhone. A few hundred bucks is a lot of money for people who aren’t YouTube millionaires.
Pub quizzes are voluntary exams for neurodiverse people. I attend them regularly.
If I were going to sign up for Squarespace, I would have done so by now. Their ads are ever present and everywhere and frankly, if it were possible, I’d sign up so I never had to see or hear one of their ads again.
I’ve got the day off. So I’m brewing.
I used to be a huge console gamer. But a mixture of growing up and my ADHD anxiety, “you could be doing something more productive”, has meant I barely game anymore.
However, I started playing Zelda Breath of the Wild again yesterday and suddenly 5 hours had vanished. No regerts.
Any solution to the Drake Equation that doesn’t result in zero is wrong.
The assumption that life is common? All good. The assumption that multicellular life is common? Sketchy (took 4 billion years to go from single cells to multicellular). Intelligent life? Get outta here.
I wish Microsoft Defender on iOS didn’t use the VPN. Of course, I only have it on because my company requires it to have a compliant phone. But it stops me using my VPN and my pihole DNS to block ads.
The eternal question. Do you run a bunch of small VMs in Proxmox, or run a bunch of Docker containers on a single machine?
Never get in to the following things if you value having money:
While watching a few “what happens at the end of the universe?” YouTube videos over the weekend, a question was sparked in my brain which made it feel like it was fizzing. The question: why does anything exist at all?
I ferment my beer in a modified fridge I keep outside under a plastic cover. I hate the setup. It was fine when I had a garage, but now I want something I can fit inside.
Turns out there’s ways to build your own fridge. But I’m thinking of an alternative and I’ll have to document it.
Caps lock is a scourge.
You Americans with your “Kansas is pronounced kan-sas” and “Arkansas is pronounced Argh-kan-sas”.
The Acolyte had high and low points. Brilliant and stupid bits. But that’s on par for Star Wars. I really enjoyed it, and the finale was excellent. This is coming from a Star Wars cynic and Star Trek super fan 🖖🏼
