Todoist is introducing deadlines to tasks, this has always been a point of friction for me with their due date implementation. When I’m working on something isn’t necessarily when it’s due. It feels like they’re really upping their game lately.
I’ve recently discovered that the artists behind one of my favourite tracks of all time are still making music. They’ve just released a new album which I’m really enjoying.
At work we’re doing a team visibility piece to help others in the business get to know us. We’ve been asked to answer some questions and I thought it would be fun to share them here…
Favourite movie: It would be a three way fight between The Usual Suspects, Shawshank Redemption, and The Dark Knight.
Tea or Coffee: Coffee, but not any coffee… my friends would say it has to be “snobby”!
I’ve been using Reminders for my tasks since the new macOS came out, it’s just to difficult to get stuff in and so I’ve noticed I’ve not been using it. Time to return to a different tool.
Seriously fed up of seemingly intelligent people stating that anyone who doesn’t lean left politically is a Nazi. Here’s news for you, the Nazi’s were leftist and socialist.
Stop demonising/name calling people who disagree with you and learn how to have considered discussions/debates, you might find people aren’t that different to you.
I generally don’t comment about politics on social media, or really in life in general. I find the whole topic to be divisive and alienating especially as someone who is not liberal enough for the left and not conservative enough for the right, it is a hard topic to broach.
What I can say is this: I am very disappointed in the current state of politics both in the UK and USA.
A friends daughters headphones wouldn’t connect wirelessly to their Surface computer. I fiddled around for a bit and then pulled the cable that comes with them from the box. Worked first time. Sometimes the old ways are the best.
Just found out that UNRWA is being tipped to win a peace prize… This is an organisation that has had Hamas terrorists in their employ. An organisation that has employees who have held Israeli hostages in their own homes. They are not innocent and do not deserve it.
Went to visit a small gallery exhibition opening last night. A collection of postcard sized boards by loads of different artists. Somehow got roped into doing something for it to fill some gaps left by those that had been sold…
Starting to get a little tired of some of the tech podcasts I listen to. Listening to one host today saying he can buy non Apple headphones because Apple didn’t update the AirPods Max with any meaningful features. Fine in and of itself, but at no point did he indicate the headphones he has are broken, don’t work, or no longer fulfil his needs. Felt like just replacing them for the sake of it.
Trying out the new Reeder from @rizzi@gloria.social and it’s a lovely experience for reading. The only thing that might stop me using it is the lack of ability to reply to things. I’m signed in with my Micro.blog account but I can’t respond to people’s posts.
