That episode of Star Trek: Discovery was… below average. Despite the nice bit (which I was extremely happy about).

Apple’s 25 March event is apparently going to be about news subscriptions and original TV content. And being outside the USA, I predict: USA only. As it always is with such things.

There’s nothing more punishingly boring than podcasters talking about podcasting.

🏏 I often wonder why the third umpire videos aren’t in super slo-mo. You’ve been able to do super slow motion on phones, in 4K, for years. And yet they judge fast-paced motion using what looks like standard video watched frame by frame.

This breakfast research sits well with me. I’ve never been a fan of breakfast. It’s a garbage meal in my opinion, and the social pressure to eat it is irritating.

Damn cars are loud. Walking next to a busy road for 30 minutes makes me wonder just how much hearing damage I’m incurring.

Oh yeah. Icro’s themes look great!

Glorious to see the White Ferns still wearing their Aotearoa shirts. I’m of the opinion that NZ should be officially renamed Aotearoa 🏏🇳🇿

I so wish Apple made an iPhone 4-sized phone. Seen here next to an XR.

Hey Star Trek fans, have you seen this episode of Carpool Karaoke?

I’ve been going through my Twitter followings and unfollowing a bunch of people to try and tame the stream (which I get no use from these days due to the noise). It’s always sad seeing that people are following me when I know they’ve passed away. Like seeing digital ghosts.

This is, without a doubt, the most momentous achievement I ever made on Twitter.

I had a nightmare last night. I dreamt I had logged into Facebook by mistake, and cancelled my imminent full account deletion 😑

I have very lucky tacos

I’d like there to be a great sci-fi series with episodes no more than 30 minutes long. Sci-fi novellas are common, why not episodellas(?)?

Time to look for a cheaper internet provider. Because I am a cheap bastard and would rather pay ~$70/month rather than $95.

I just received an email: “We’re sending you something in the post!”

Why? Just email it to me. You literally have my email address at hand to send automated emails to. What!?

That last episode of Star Trek Discovery certainly opened up the season. Holy shit! (and Section 31!!! Sqeeeeeeee!!!)

If anyone was wondering how my goal for January went, I crushed it.

There’s some truly magical spots in New Zealand.

Calling it. 77.5 hours between charges for my XR. I don’t know if I’ll be able to go back to a charge-once-a-day phone. Charging 2-3 times a week is just too convenient.

iPhone XR running in low power mode. 72 hours after its last charge with normal (for me) use.
