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.

The new Mac mini base model is looking very tempting… if I start picking up some freelance work it might be the new Mac I need.

I’ve decided to give Kagi a try for a bit to see what it’s like. Initial impressions are it’s fast, the page loads insanely quick compared to Google.

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.

My elephant made it to the wall of a fun little exhibition at a local gallery.

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…

I don't think I've gone from discovering a book to buying a book so quickly. I've always loved notebooks, and now a book about their history.

The last Mac that I bought is now officially obsolete. 9 years old. It feels both old and young at the same time.

Trying out something new with iOS 18…

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.
