💭 What Others Said...
I've been reading a lot about blog interactions, community echos, and manual Webmentions recently. So I decided to jump on the bandwagon and roll my own.
Today is gonna be another Tissot Seastar day, I think.
Something tells me that the Selten Salvage Bronze is gonna have some competition for being the most worn watch in my log.
I don't know why, but the term "vibe coding" really pisses me off. I find it utterly stupid.
New Watch Day
I've been trying to be more thoughtful with my watch purchases lately, and I'm so happy I have been, as this latest addition to my collection is just stunning.
The most annoying thing about this stupid bloody sprain is no running for 6-8 weeks. I just starting to enjoy it again.
FML.
Never expected to be spending my first day off in the hospital thanks to me slipping over last night and landing very awkwardly on my ankle.
Luckily just a bad sprain - nothing broken. 🤦🏼♂️
I switched from Notesnook to #Obsidian last week for notes on my phone (separate from work notes). I see what all the fuss is about now - it's very good.
I particularly like how everything is just an md file that I can open anywhere.
Last day of work today, then it's 2 weeks of time off. 🎉
Follow Up on Notes
I received a tonne of responses to my question about notes systems. I've also had a couple people email me asking for an update, as they're interested too. This is that update.
Delio Phase Two
The second book in RR Haywood's Delio series. Great all the way through, but disappointing at the end.
First #run back after a week on Chicago and lots of indulgence. Plus, ~30 degree heat. Feel good now that my heart has stopped trying to pop out of my chest. 🏃🏼♂️
Yes, Hooman. I am fluffy. Whatcha gonna do about it?
You know what really pisses me off? When my wife sends an urgent text asking me to bring the washing in as it's about to rain. Only to moan at me for not immediately seeing the message.
...if it's so bloody urgent, call me! 🤣
Finding a Home on the Fediverse
I've been flip-flopping around the Fediverse lately. My most recent hop was from Micro.blog back to Fosstodon, but I've decided to switch back. Here's why...
If you deliberately don't capitalise the text you write, I'm probably not going to read it.
It's not edgy. It makes you look like a Muppet.
Finished watching The Pitt last night. Probably one of the best TV series I've ever seen. Superb.
Why TF does #Ubuntu not automatically switch to dark mode when it's night time? Like, it's 2025 FFS.
When did people start substituting putting the phone to their ear in favour of being on loudspeaker in public?
Fucking idiots.
