They better announce the price of the S4 soon. Especially with prime day around the corner, if Amazon discount the basic kindle by a lot I might fold and buy one of those. @aggrobeard.bsky.social @pablo0151.bsky.social youtu.be/k-JlIyoddow?...

Sounds like a legend to me.

Having a BBQ later. Trying to decide whether to have #cans as well. Had a drink last two nights and got a 5:45am alarm tomorrow morning.

Foot felt ok. Just the rest of me felt like shit. Hopefully foot will be ok and can start getting some regular miles back in.

What's out today then? Load of campers outside "game" sports direct Cardiff high street

Having to go to the office on a Friday. That's a sign of not optimising my week. Although hopefully office and the train will be a bit quieter

Definitely @safers.bsky.social here

While many will be talking about xG tonight, we should also be talking about xV: Expected Violence against women. Domestic abuse can rise 38% if England lose and 26% if they win. Stand with us. Support domestic abuse charities. t.co/P7RJTliWzQ | t.co/egbJaKLCjy

Now missed my normal train home. Although as my car at a different stop now, it's only 8 minute wait for the next one.

Good stuff. Raining, train cancelled. Should have turned round and WFH but got to make sure I'm hitting that office day quota. Plus not losing an hour's sleep tomorrow by not working from home.

Back on this tonight @nakamuramartin.bsky.social

Guess my eight year old will have to stop watching tutorials on YouTube to learn scratch and following along himself. Didn't realise how learning to program was so dangerous for him. Feel like I've failed as a parent

As soundtracks go this is a belter.

Is on. Cafe still as slow as ever making a latte

Oldest should have his first all star cricket session of the year this morning. However apart from the initial email had no further contact from the club and nothing on their Facebook page. Last year were really good with Comms. Hope I not about to have a wasted trip and a disappointed 7 year old.

Back in the shox zone. This thing plays it really well to.

My old school. Yeah I went to school in a castle, what of it you proles.

Games gone

Look out. Opened my trading 212 account for first time in around 3 years. Already 31p up.

Think reading as replaced gaming. Last couple of months spent way more time reading than gaming or listening to music

Shattered today, fair play

Starting the baroque cycle tonight. Guess that's my reading for the next few months sorted.

Only problem with smashing your three mandatory office days out the way early in the week so that's Wednesdays suddenly feel like Fridays

About 2/3s through Neal Stephensons essay In The Begining Was The Command Line. Considering it was written in 1999 a lot of it still relevant now.

Just finished The Da Vinci Code. Pretty meh, pretty standard thriller just with added appeal of the grail, knights Templar etc. Think next will be In The Begining Was The Command Line. Which is a Neil Stephenson essay about OS's written in 1999.

Shox zone

Totally forgot this was ending. Nevermind saves me the grief when the missus sees I bought more "crap"

Hopefully foot on the mend after two months very inconsistent running that felt tought. Need to make sure don't get carried away too.

Was going to play on the ayaneo pocket air but its flat. So may as well read a bit more of this. Can't really see what all the fuss was about. Yeah it's a bit of a page turner but the fact I'm over halfway through and Dan Brown expects me to believe all this happened and it's still not morning yet

"This is a pretzel town, pretty boy."

Had a quick ten minutes on this and while been a while since played the Amiga or Mega drive version this seems pretty close to how I remember it

Been on charge for 2 hours. Charging light on but no sign of life yet

This been in a drawer in my father's house unused for over 10 years. Let's see if it still works.

Still can't get sub 3:20 for 40 lines on Tetris DX

Tonight is going to involve some Lidl blood orange cider and my new fm24 save where trying to take Airbus UK from Welsh second tier to European Glory* *Definition of European Glory subject to change

Looking through old pension stuff earlier and noticed one had my retirement age for when I would be 55. Was not too bothered until just now when realised that 2035 is only 9 years away.

Should I be worried not getting the 2fa emails from epic

Managed to blag an extra WFH day this week, so tomorrow will be third day on bounce WFH, sort of missing the office. After years of WFH never thought would say that. Although the office for the new job is mental, full of snacks and soft drinks.

He was calmer than I thought especially when he was told reason he not been called is he hadn't checked in. Just stormed out

In the GP'S waiting room. Think some guy about to kick off. Should have brought some popcorn

Charles Leclerc is delighted to have signed a new multi-year contract with Ferrari, putting an end to speculation that he wanted to become world champion.

Halfway through Da Vinci Code and sure Dan Brown doesn't understand how time works. Loads of shit happening and still not morning yet.

Anyone jailbroke an older kindle that been factory reset since Amazon dropped support? Thinking of getting an older one for the kid and not sure how much he will use it so don't want to spend too much.

This lad looks like could be one for the future

Cup Winners too, to wrap up yet another double

Been tempted by one of these for a while. Seeing a tech dweeb video on it not helping. Convincing myself to hold off for one with a light. @aggrobeard.bsky.social @pablo0151.bsky.social youtu.be/GNxM18vV0zY?...

Urgh back to work today after week off. Resisted the urge to WFH today. Keep the WFH days till later in the week. Nevermind few more chapters read on the train.

First clear of 9-5 40 lines on Tetris DX @jake74.bsky.social

Below 3:30 to clear 40 lines on Tetris DX now. Improvements going to be slow from here I feel.
