Only a week into Window 11 and I can see Microsoft’s commitment to unreliable software continues.
Finished watching the second season of The Diplomat this evening, and my only complaint is that there isn’t enough of it. I simply want more, much more of this excellent political drama. Of course, I’m not at all bias that Scotland plays such a big part either. No way.
Well that’s heartwarming, even if it’s not news

The sky can really be this blue in Scotland, at least one day a year.
No, no thanks. I don’t run software Beta tests and there’s been nothing communicated about Use Cases which could actually benefit me and how I use macOS.

I’ve had 2 types of support this week and relied on both. The first is a wrist splint following last weekend’s tumble on the ice. The 2nd in my partner helping, listening and doing whatever mundane simple thing I’ve been suddenly been unable to accomplish. You are, and have been amazing.

Haha Amazon. Hilarious.
Ok so it turns out that sleeping with a split and the pain/discomfort is just another thing to contend with. This is going to feel like a long few weeks and I’m glad it’s a minor injury compared to what many others have had to endure.
