Disappointing that the Safari Tech Preview doesn’t sync tab groups across my two Macs running the Preview. Would’ve been nice to test that behaviour.

Downloaded Safari Tech Preview for Big Sur. Not sure about some of the hidden UI elements but I’ll give it a chance and see how it changes between now and release day.

Big Mail has arrived. I was really looking forward to it, but the subscription pricing looks like it’s out of reach for me.

A couple of days off to end the week. I’ve a whole week off at the end of June/beginning of July. Can’t wait to leave the Mac for a bit and relax.

Looking forward to WWDC. Definitely some Messages updates in the works judging by the waiting graphics.

One thing I want Apple to announce tonight is better support for “Do not disturb” on the Mac. Let me set it up so that my Mac goes into DND for meetings and then turns itself off once they are over.

New coffee: Fazenda Recanto, Brazil roasted by Quarter Horse Coffee with tasting notes of Strawberry, coconut, blueberry, and kiwi ☕️

I’ve been building myself a new blog using Jekyll as the back end. I’ve moved a lot of the posts from my Wordpress site, not sure what to do with the link posts since I don’t intend to do them anymore.

I’ve been playing around with my Obsidian theme, it feels really at home on macOS apart from the position of the window controls. Can’t work out how to move them though.

Workout 2 of The Body Coach done. Too many squats. 🥵

Second dose of the vaccine done. 💉

Twitter won’t remove posts comparing Israel to Covid and Nazi’s. Absolutely disgusting.

New coffee: Hacienda Sonora, Costa Rica roasted by Quarter Horse Coffee with tasting notes of Tropical fruit, pineapple, and juicy ☕️

Why is there no universal font size setting on macOS like there is on iOS? It would make working on 4K screens much easier on the eyes.

My promotion to Senior UX/UI Designer at work has been officially announced so marking the occasion with a new notebook.

Day off and the power is off. Wonderful.

I think after a few weeks of continual cleaning my Magic Keyboard is at a point where I don’t need to replace it. The space bar is the only key I really notice it being different, but it’s gradually getting better with each clean. The lesson to learn in this. Don’t spill iced tea

Finished work for the day. It’s felt like a slog today but got there in the end. Gradually moving the needles forward on projects.

Apple Music has started recommending some radio shows to me. I approve of this.

Anyone remember Yojimbo? I used to have a massive database of reference stuff in that app, but when the iPad came along and they never did a proper version of it I stopped using it. Last night I was thinking about using a separate app like KeepIt to store reference material in instead of using Obsidian for it. Can’t decide if it’s a good idea or not.

Managed to get Jekyll working locally now. Started to play around with it learning how it works and then the power goes off…

Currently reading: The Two Towers (The Lord of the Rings, Book 2) by J. R. R. Tolkien 📚

Successfully installed Jekyll locally on my Mac, apart from being able to view the site… but the repository is linked to Netlify and that successfully builds.
