Notes
Notes are my shorter posts; kinda like my own little microblog. They have their own RSS feed and are automatically syndicated to my social profiles.
[Picking kids up from school...]
Me: So what did you do today boys?
Youngest: I wrote about black heroes.
Me: Oh, that's cool. Who did you write about?
Oldest: Was it Batman?
🤦♂️🤣
He wrote about Nelson Mandela, for those who are interested.
My wife is now searching "can chickens go out in deep snow". I assume she fears they're going to spontaneously freeze as soon as they step outside of their coop.
... they're little dinosaurs, I think they'll be fine!
Certain parts of the UK have had some snow. We've had about 4", apparently up by the kids school has had a foot.
This obviously means that the UK has gone full Mad Max and everything is closed.
I've been playing with #Vivaldi the last few days - now I'm getting to grips with it, I'm pretty impressed. I think this might stick for me and replace #Firefox.
I'm getting sick of hearing everyone's hot take on Bluesky, just like I got sick of hearing everyone's hot take on Mastodon a couple years ago.

Watched the Tyson vs Paul fight this morning. Utter shite. Tyson shouldn't be fighting at his age, and it showed.
I suppose he was a paid a shit tonne of money though, so that's something. 🤷🏼♂️
Last day in Florida today. It's been a long week and I'm looking forward to getting home.
But don't worry, America, I'll be in New York in January. 😏
I upgraded to MacOS Sequoia last night. This morning I had a popup explaining some of the new feature.
STOP THE PRESS! MacOS finally has window snapping...it's finally caught up to Windows 7. 🤦♂️
Was searching for something and I clicked on a Sun link (🤢). Anyway, I got this popup. What the actual fuck, we now have to pay to be able to reject cookies??
Beautiful sky when I came home this evening.
I just realised that today is the 2 year anniversary of our move to our little Welsh smallholding. How time flies...
Our chickens have half a stable that I partitioned for them. I even insulated it!
Chickens come in at night and are like “nah, we’re good on this tiny ledge right by the open door. Cheers though. 👍”
FFS #Mozilla, what are you doing?
Say it with me folks…
WE 👏 DON’T 👏 WANT 👏 ANY 👏 ADS
To “fix the internet” we don’t need more ads, we need you guys to come up with more diverse revenue streams. Like, I dunno, making great products and charging for them? 🤯

I've just discovered baby hippos and they're my new favourite thing.
How to make yourself sound like an absolute wanker in a single sentence:
Lee is a managing director of a $102B private equity firm, he is probably richer than me. (Though I doubt he gives back as much.)
Well done, Matt. You continue to make yourself look like an utter tosser.
First fire of the year. 🥶🔥🔥
When I was in the USA recently, I’d get laughs every time I pulled my phone out (not very often as I hardly use it). It’s an #iPhone 13 Mini and everyone commented on how they’ve never seen one, how cute it is, and would ask how I use something so small.
Are smaller phones really that rare in the States? 🤷♂️
Ahhhhh shit, he found us. 😂😂
Tia and I are sharing peanut butter pretzels.
Shhhhh Sid hasn’t noticed yet. 🤫
The dogs hate being walked in the rain. ☔️
