Finally watched Lightyear. That was fun 😎📽

While I enjoy AAA games, I miss the simplicity of pick up and play. None of this “do the load out”, or “you’ve unlocked a celebration move” crap.

Thinking 2023 might be the year to do some gunpla builds 🤔

Just tried ChatGPT for the first time. That’s seriously cool.

Keep thinking about spinning up my own Mastodon instance. Handy guide over here Host your own Mastodon instance on a Raspberry Pi

Watched Gaz Brookfield at The Bodega in Nottingham last night. Great gig, he really puts on a show.🎵

Finally watching Contagion.

Depeche Mode playing, JavaScript to be written, and a ton of maths to implement. That’ll do 😎

New day, new book. Love the film, thought it was about time I read it.

Lunchtime viewing, “First Contact: An Alien Encounter”. Dramatisation and discussion on what discovering alien life might be like.

Well, hello 😎📷

Just started The Peripheral on Prime.

Starting the day with Hidden Figures 🚀

Getting deeper into the Flutter learning path on raywenderlich.com today 😎

Started watching “The Conversation” starring Gene Hackman. Definitely can see the connection to “Enemy Of The State”. 📽

Usual long trip around the streaming services for pre-work entertainment. Settled on Doom (again).

Installing the Flutter SDK and IntelliJ on the MBP, playing a bit of Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels, but mostly just waiting for the Artemis launch 🚀

First album of the day: “Some Girls Wander By Mistake” by The Sisters Of Mercy 🎵

Finally worked out why I think lyric videos are shit and make my brain itch. Or at least this is the way forward. Watch an ABBA video. Depth of field. Shot in the moment. Honesty. If it’s not perfect, embrace the cracks. Kintsugi.

Switched from Sketch to Figma at the end of last week. Haven’t had chance to kick the tyres properly yet, but looks good.

Giving the new Resident Evil series a go 📺

Taking time out to watch the @nasa JWST live stream.

Watching Halo on Paramount+, enjoying it so far 📺

Almost Famous was on the TV when we got home. One of those films I can watch from any point until the end 😎

Just finished watching the first episode of “Strange New Worlds”. Wow 🚀

Watching The Martian again 📽

Just finished Night Sky season 1 on Prime. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I really enjoyed it 📺

Time to finish my brew and make some new things.

Rewatching some General Magic over lunchtime for some inspiration 📽

“Chip n’ Dale Rescue Rangers” was everything I hoped and more. Highly recommended 😎

Starting the day with the Blade Runner soundtrack 😔

Watching Das Boot season 3. I should really get round to watching the film sometime.

Bryan Adams kicked ass tonight 😎

Bettleship on the TV, noodling with some JS in CodePen

Apparently I’ve been an Adobe Creative Cloud customer for 10 years now.

Latest edition of the Kirby newsletter has dropped. Always good content, whether you work with @getkirby CMS or not.

Started watching Foundation this morning. I haven’t read the books, one episode in and I’m enjoying it.

Took a couple of days, but the new Mac Studio is all set for some hard work next week.

8 hours into migration with 10+ hours estimated to go, I really wish I’d thought ahead and bought a Thunderbolt cable. Still, it’s been nice to work on the laptop for a change 😎

Mac delivery postponed until Tuesday. Ah well, bit more time to sort the HD out.

New desktop Mac should be arriving today, and it’s my first desktop since 1999 that isn’t an iMac. Ever since I replaced my first Mac (back in 1996 I think), I’ve linked two machines and copied one to the other. Not this time - going for current work only, and doing app installs from scratch. Archiving and deleting a lot of stuff, with 90s Metal Classics | Spotify Playlist playing in Spotify.

Long overdue iMac archive and delete session. This might take a while.

Using @microsoftedge for the first time in a while - web select is a great new feature!

“Let’s go back to the rock at see it at 440” 📽 The Andromeda Strain

Started lunchtime with Star Wars Episode 9, then switched to Ex Machina 📽

“This is Paul Cunningham, Capricorn Control” 📽

Watching [Outland] (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082869/) before work. Classic, and one of the greatest fonts on screen. Chunky. Means business.

Just finished reading Freelancer Magazine issue 4. Essential reading for freelancers - a sign of a good magazine is a browser full of new tabs 😎 @FreelanceMagz

The RocketBook was a bit of an impulse buy, but this week it’s been really useful. Meeting notes direct to Dropbox? Sorted.

Halt And Catch Fire is available on iTunes. Might have to invest 📺

Really enjoying “The Billion Dollar Code” on Netflix 📺

When you get home, turn on the TV and Chef hasn’t long started 🙂

Watching Prometheus on Disney+. Got to say the combination of my AirPods Pro and Apple TV 4K is brilliant 😎

Had a great day working on the new @brandedPixels website. I haven’t spent a day playing around with Sketch for a long time 😎

Strong possibility of finally watching Ghostbusters Afterlife tonight…

Mac #10 ordered - the first time since university/this century my desktop machine won’t be an iMac. Bring it on 😎

Broken ground on the (long overdue) new @brandedpixels website today. I’ve finally got something to use my first @getkirby license on 😎

Listening to “Flood II” on Spotify and all of a sudden I wish I was in Whitby watching the sea with a beer.
