I don't want to brag, but in the last 2 days I made 4 phone calls that I have been putting off for weeks. I'm exhauted now 🫥

After time spent either ill or in buirn out, I managed to do something this weekend 🤩 My first short using my studio and new editing kit. Super happy with the results, and super happy with the boost it gave to my enerygy 🥳 Now to make a habbit of it! youtube.com/shorts/JZ1lJ...

Does it count as a hack, if bought full size keycaps for my low profile keyboard (because I like the look and typing experience) but then sanded down the keys that caused a problem? After all, MOA kecaps are not supposed to go on low profile keyboards...

I feel I’ve maybe made a mistake with the iPad I got this summer. I’ve always wondered what made a 13” iPad make sense. Obviously they work for enough people, but not me. Well… Yesterday, I installed @procreate.com and I get it now 😅 I imagine that extra screen makes a huge difference!

I’m on the sick at the moment with a flare up of my ME, to try and keep me occupied I’ve been doing another picture (when I have the mental/physical energy at least). I’m loving seeing my improvements over time 🤩

This has me thinking… When I was 16 I got a pair of Panasonic in ear (but not earbud), bass boost earphones that cost £90. That was the most expensive they had a time time. Even with inflation they were only €90… What can you today for that price with decent quality? 😵‍💫😅😂

Ohhh... New headphone initial impressions... Due to reasons, I need cheap(ish), wired, white, NC headphones for my studio. The cheapest I found where Sony ULT Wear. I got a 2nd chance from #Coolblue. Then looked at reviews (wrong way round). The reviews looked good & I breathed a sigh of relief.

Today was a little better. I managed this from start to finish. Practice with acrylic pens using gel pens for details. Next time I’m going to try alcohol, acrylic, and gel pens all together. When I’ve recovered more, doing this has hit my fatigue again…

Well, I managed the swatch sheets. Just. Seems that even coloring was too much for my body… After I got these finished I couldn’t do any actual colouring, and instead slept for 3 hours… Maybe today, we’ll see…

#Swetugg the aftermath! After an amazing few days that triggered my fatigue more than I was expecting, yesterday was super tough, and today and tomorrow are going to be bed days. So time to try my new pens and see if this helps…

Another #Swetugg over, Ted and Hippo are ready for the trip home. The conference, speakers, and of course the attendees have been amazing as always. Hey da Stockholm. Hope to be back soon!

The majority of scientific advances before the last century were made by bored rich people. People who had enough to live on discovered gravity and electricity. The idea that people need to be in fear of starvation to work is deeply stupid

Oh wow! It seems that I owe my headphones NC a little bit of an appology... Whilst it is not on the same level as Sony, the crew information just carry directly through without any reduction was probably my new hearing aids activating on the telecoil system! No wonder it seemed so clear!

My cognitive function this morning. Struggle out of bed, set up the laptop for work. Sign in, open teams, open Outlook, think that is a lot of mail... Notice some mail from a shop. Why are they sending mail to my work mail? Look at the colour of the laptop and realise I set up the wrong laptop...

I've never gelled with dark themes 💯 because the contrast was just too low for my comfort. However... Hearing of a VS OLED theme by @madskristensen.net that was changed for me yesterday! I don't have OLED, but an MBP mini-LED screen works just as well! marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa...

I've just set up a new keyboard (nice to use, but for the price I expected a lore more - review). However... I did learn something more, it is windows only, so CMD & Option are mixed up & i thas no mac. But you don't need it! I found this tip for win boards on mac: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM3k...

Woohoo! Hippo and her travel companion are on board and ready for our Stockholm adventure! A week with Friends and then on to #Swetugg!!!

My first “disappointment” with my B&W headphones, and one that I should have expected… Like the CM9s I got a decade ago, they reproduce sound really well. Sounds awesome, and when you have a great sound source, it is.

7 years ago I did something that I never thought I would want to do*. I stood up in front of people and dlivered a talk, my first ever talk. At an international conference, #Swetugg In just over a week, I'll be back, this time helping as well as talking 🤩 See you there! swetugg.se

Wow... I needed new headphones and after thinking about it for an age jumped for the B&W PX7 S2e. My Sony WH1000 XM4 were good, but these are a different level! So comfortable that I have been wearing then since for more than 4 hours now and don't have a hint of discomfort or fatigue.

And it’s done! I’m very happy with the results!

A relaxing morning of learning to shade using alcohol markers, and highlighting with gold, silver, and white gel pens. The fade. Between sky couples could be better, but not bad!

So... I just had a conversation with my partner... We were playing a family game we got for Christmas. It came with crappy plastic holders for the cards. That screech and scratch everytime they moved. So after a couple of games I stopped and designed a better holder that would sound better 1/n

After getting bored with the same old, same old. 80s and 90s Rally Cross came across my feed 🤩 Grouo B rally cars, banned from Rally, competing on short rally cross circuits. Outstanding!!!! Takes me back to being a kid and watching this with my dad on Sat. afternoons 😍 youtu.be/-y3mzKuoTic?...

Found the actual men in women's bathrooms assaulting women.

Yay! I can actually do a tech post! I’ve just spent the late afternoon & evening fighting my new #Minisforum PC to turn it into a @proxmox.bsky.social server! My old 1 died at the weekend. The machine was fine, and pros mix is easy. But as a Linux newbie moving the Van from the old SSD was 😵‍💫

The Onion, 23 years ago. theonion.com/no-blood-for...

Dear Amazon… 10 advert breaks in the 1st episode of Fallout will not make me pay more for what I already pay for. What it I’ll do is make me watch less… There are a fee series that I want to watch but just wont…

The joys of a new phone… Trying to get all the apps working again 😅 The amount of times I’ve had to scan in my drivers license so far is 😵‍💫 But… So far it’s worth it. My hearing aids work so much better with an iPhone than they did with my Flip Z6.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

The joys of #ChronicIllness... Yesterday I got a hair cut. I adore the results, I was aiming for something a bit more extreme than I normally do, maybe a little cyber punky. By the end of the cut I had a tick in 1 eye, and was absolutely broken. Today everything hurts and I think it's a bed day.

My hearing aids came with a travel case. Great, and I need it with me all the time so that the delicate wires don't get damaged if I need to take them out for any reason. But... Every time i catch sightbofnit i swear brain gets freaked about the strange mouse that has appeared 😂😅

Whenever I see someone with a brand new Tesla.

So... My hearing aids work best with an iPhone... So once I know that I am keeping them (in about 3 weeks) I'm thinking of making the switch back. So I was just looking at what I can get one for saw this reccomendation. I know they got big, but do I really need a wall mount for it? 😅🤣

I've never noticed it before, but i have now and can't unsee it. When you create an resource group in Azure, after the validation step the create button is on the right hand side, the cancel on the left. But when you create a resource in that group, the create button is on the left... How odd!

First full day with hearing aids and 2 things jump out at me... 1) I aparently used to speak loud because I could not hear myself, that is much better now 2) Wow, is the world a noisey place!!! Like I knew car tyres were loud on the motorway, but even on a normal street 🙉

OK... After switching to my MBP for a few months I think that I am about to go full fangirel. Not of the company, they are as bad as any other tech company. But their kit. I turned on my gaming PC to update it and... I hadn't touched it for 6 weeks.

Just cancel your Netflix subscription and stop buying avocados. You'll be fine

So... Let's try making some Christmas alcohol marker drawings. Number 1 a caftoony Christmas tree. I'm happy with the shading, and the lights. I really want to do some metallic posca tinsel but and terrified of ruining it 😅🫣🤣

Wow... Looking for a travel keyboard and found an absolute bargain as a black Friday deal. 35 euros for Cherry LP mechanical 60% keyboard 🤩 Sure I need new key caps as its nordic layout, but even the. 50 euros for a keyboard that's would cost 170 in Nederland!

Dear 90% of websites. When I am on a product page, and choose to login, you can be pretty sure that I want to return to that product page aftrwards. And not be taken to your home screen so that I have to start my search all over again...

The last couple of days I've been playing with @egilhansen.com's amazing #bUnit. So eay to work with, and I love that you can test both the markup, *and* the razor components that are present (or not) on your rendered component. Fantastic! bunit.dev

Weird how many racists like to self-identify themselves as racists.

My "I will not go into any establishment that doesn't allow racists in" shirt is raising several questions, all of which are already answered by my shirt
