I love desks. No such thing as having too many! One day I’ll have a giant, antique rolltop with a million little drawers and compartments and I will sit there and tinker until I die.

Using the old, small iPhone SE has reminded me how nice it is to be able to control my phone entirely with one hand. I can reach everything without shifting my grip around or using both hands.

I see that AdGuard is available via SetApp. I used it before installing a Pi-Hole and it seemed to work very well. https://adguard.com

Well the Keychron K2 only lasted a day. I’m already back to using the Happy Hacking Keyboard. It’s possible I didn’t give the K2 long enough, but I think the HHKB has ruined every other keyboard for me.

Unpopular opinion: Paul Di’Anno Iron Maiden is as good as or better than Bruce Dickenson Iron Maiden

In my all-time top 10.

Leave me alone, Dropbox! (This is one reason I’m moving to other sync options).

I was given a Buddha Board. I’d never heard of it and now it’s my favorite thing today. https://buddhaboard.com

A reminder in my pocket.
