One of my favourite tweaks in Monterey is that full screen apps can now have the menu bar showing all the time. Always missed the time in the top right when in full screen.
Eeesh, Shortcuts in Monterey is rough… I’d heard the reports but didn’t expect it to be quite as bad as it is.
End of the week. Phew. Time to relax and wind down a bit.
It’s come to my attention that Windows is recommending to display at 150% on my colleagues laptops… effectively meaning at 1920px wide screens aren’t 1920…
I’ve noticed a weird trend. I prefer reading on paper books, but when I read on my kindle I find I read more books in shorter time period.
Reviewed iOS apps for Pinboard and it seems like none of them are developed anymore. Scrapping the plan to use Pinboard.
Logged into my Pinboard account again and set it up with Hook on my Mac. Need to spend some time tidying up the load of bookmarks in there that I never really paid attention too.
Nice day out in Bristol. Tried a new coffee place that made coffee that tasted as good as the espresso bar looked.
I made soup for lunch. Forgot to buy parsley to go in it… still tasted good.
It’s a dark mode kind of morning.
Instead of writing I made some design changes to my blog, because why write when you can tinker…
I do not understand people who take calls in public on speaker phone and hold their phone out in front of them. No one wants to hear your conversation.
I now have a mastodon username, never tried mastodon though, so maybe I should look into it.
No matter how old I get or how old the show gets, but Friends will always be like a comfort blanket for me.
Watched the first episode of Foundation last night. Really enjoyed it. Time for episode 2.
Custom domain is now working on my Micro.blog. Been trying to get it working for a while. I finally realised there was a typo in the nameservers so they weren’t pointing anywhere meaning the DNS wasn’t taking effect. 🤦🏻♂️
I love my iPad. I can do everything on it I need except for design work. I’ve tried no end of apps, but I can’t get comfortable with it. It’s making me think about replacing my personal Mac in the near future.

Fastmail and 1Password have created a masked email integration. Really great idea, I’ll be giving it a test run.
As a birthday treat to myself I bought a HomePod mini to replace the echo and Sonos One in my bedroom. It’s now handling the audio of from my Apple TV and has removed an Echo from my life. Plus I now have the benefits of my Sonos Ones as a stereo pair in the lounge.
Got given a Lamy 2000 ball point for my birthday yesterday. I love the design, even nicer in the flesh.
