Blog
This is a list of all the content on this site - I like to think of it as my digital stream of conscousness. Blog posts, notes, books I’ve read, and links I’ve enjoyed are all mixed together, but you can filter them if you prefer. Enjoy. 🙃

I think that's the closest I've ever come to running out of fuel. The car stopped reporting miles remaining around 8 miles from home. 🫣
Managed to limp it home just about though.
Today I need to:
- Take the dogs for a walk
- Service the lawn mowers
But I can't be arsed doing anything. I always get really lazy and lose motivation when I have extended periods of time off work (I've been off for a week at this point).
God help me when I retire!
Mentioned recently that my iPad was on its last legs after nearly 6 years of faithful service. So started thinking about a replacement. I only use it for reading RSS and some YouTube before bed. Instead of looking for a replacement, I just decided to stop watching YT before bed, and read RSS on my phone. 🤷♂️
Now I pick-up my Kindle instead, which is far better than watching crap on YT.
Out of office is on, work phone is switched off, and that's me for 2024! Merry Christmas, all! 🎉
Well this doesn't look good. 🫣
I hope to find the time, energy, and money to reopen all of this sometime in the new year.
"Sometime in the new year" doesn't sound like a holiday break to me.
You know what would be great? If websites stopped embedding links from fucking #Twitter.
Because, you know, the billions of people on this earth that don't have Twitter accounts can't see the post...
So after 2 weeks with the Pixel 8, I'm back in my iPhone 13 Mini - the Pixel is getting returned today. I'll write something about it all soon. Probably.
So my iPad is like 6 years old at this point and it's really starting to creek. I only use it for some YouTube and reading before bed, so don't need anything fancy.
I'd love an iPad Mini, but no chance of me paying that much! Thinking maybe an Amazon Fire tablet. Any other recommendations?
