That this happens on Apple’s own devices is crazy…
Might have already downloaded the Delta emulator for iPhone and found a Pokemon Blue rom to play…
I feel caught in a continual battle of task managers. I like the OS integration of Things and the calendar sync of Todoist.
I wish I could make my iPad Home Screen as calm as my Mac one, but still with the utility. Full colour widgets are too shouty.
Starting the day off with some beautiful coffee in my local coffee shop. They’ve got some stunners from Kawa Coffee on today and I couldn’t resist taking some photos. ☕️
Migrated my Mastodon account to Micro.blog fully. The next few days will be spent pruning my follow list.
Love receiving Travellers notebook packages in the mail.
I was so engrossed in my work that I missed the start of a meeting by ten minutes. Nothing worse than having to send a sheepish apology message when joining.
Take a moment

Life is odd. Sometimes it seems to just pass us by, each day sliding into the next, the week begins and ends before we’ve even had time to catch our breath. At other times the days are slow and packed with things, little moments that create memories or that build up to make a week to remember. Lately life seems to be passing by at a great rate of knots, it whizzes by in a string of meetings, groceries, tv shows, and sleep.
Made my first little foray into editing the template for my blog. I’m a bit rusty with CSS and HTML but it all started to come back as I adjusted link colours and made a tweak to the spacing on my new bookmarks page.
The bookmarks page is a bit of an experiment as I try out some of the features in Micro.blog premium, although I still need to dig into them a bit.
Finally found some time this morning to add some personal sites to my blog roll. I’ve been wanting to create one for a while so when Manton added it as a feature to Micro.blog it made perfect sense to do it here. The aim is for this to be the first of many small improvements I would like to make.
Is there anyway to block or mute words on Micro.blog?
Tried to use TickTick briefly today. Felt way less intuitive than Todoist does, decided to stick with Todoist and their calendar integration for time blocking. Sometimes new isn’t better.
All I would like is an Obsidian like app that works on iPad and feels like it belongs there.
Came across Swift Mail yesterday, a native macOS app for JMAP email providers and it looks like a Mimestream for Fastmail. It’s a shame I don’t have a Mac that can run it, hopefully they’ll do an iPadOS version as well.
Theory: Apple is soon going to announce a HomePod with a screen. People will want to see sports scores on that. The new Sports app is for that.
I’m tempted to reset my iPhone and only install the apps I’m using to see how few apps I can get away with.
I would really like to be able to put apps in slide over on my Mac. Having Todoist there would be very helpful when I’m not plugged into my external display.
I finally have a new iPad to replace the one which died in early January. Realised how much I used the old one and my ancient MacBook Pro wasn’t able to handle some things I was doing. Been playing the new Affinity apps and they are very impressive.
I really wish Safari played nicely with all site or web apps. Having to run an app so that links for certain things (Monday.com and Miro) open in a Chromium browser is very annoying.
