Love a full moon. Almost makes up for sunset at 4pm which seems unnecessarily early.

Months ago I was given an old, redundant PS4. Just the console, no games or controllers. Anyway this week I’ve finally bought a controller and ordered some games off eBay. Welcome to 2013…
Like many, I’ve been disappointed the minimal and lacklustre “update” to the iPad mini 6.
In an Apple Store this afternoon I spent of time using and handling an 11" iPad Pro (2024) with M4 SOC. My last iPad Pro was a 12.8" which seem enormous by comparison. Moving from a 7" Mini to an 11" Pro would be an adjustment, but should be very doable.
The move could also bring Stage Manager support and true external display support, both of which I would use more than any LLM functions.
Headline of the week, from German paper Die Zeit
The rose is looking fine and healthy, even at this time of year. Amazing. I’m so happy for her.
This is clip from threads on file types hanging out is absolutely brilliant.
Bracing ourselves for Storm Ashley
Video on threads of Inventions hanging out. I love the sting in the tail at the end.
So very true to this day and in every country, not solely the USA.
Windows updates on corporate PC are still such a pain and a nuisance. Especially when demanded immediately after yet another reboot.
So I guess I’m sticking with the current iPad Mini. There is literally no reason to upgrade.
Enjoying Sky Series Sweetpea starring Ella Purnell. Nice dark and twisted black comedy even if some of it makes you cringe.
Despite a lack of use of my DJI mini 3 pro over 2024 I’m completely drawn to the DJI Neo.
Drone footage from Loch Lomond, Scotland in October. Shows off the colours of the place, especially at this time of year.
This afternoon my week old Apple Watch 10 dropped 90% in 6 hours. I’m hoping this is an anomaly not what to be expected.
What the hell Windows? Even for you that’s a new low
It’s ok to be outraged and to speak calmly and intelligently about other unacceptable behaviour.
Was cut up at a junction by someone who thinks her time is more important than others. Almost worse is that we’re not outraged at such stupidity & selfishness. No one’s on the horn, or flashing lights. To react is “road rage” and beneath us. So their arrogance continues unchallenged.
Mr Greedy, the penguin dies aged 33
Mr Greedy had a hand in siring 230 descendants across five generations: children, grandchildren and great-great-great-grandchildren
That’s some appetite. Pure greed.

Elon Musk on pace to become world’s first trillionaire by 2027
That’s disgusting. Absolutely horrific considering that we still live in a world of hunger, homeless and poverty, so say nothing of war, dictatorships and pain & suffering they cause. That kind of money wouldn’t solve everything but would go along way to helping a lot of people.
Rumour of no new iPad mini tomorrow. Actually as much as I’d love an new mini I’m happy to get a new Watch this month and wait a little for the new iPad mini.
It might almost be the time to replace my faithful Apple Watch Series 4. This has been my 24/7 companion since 2018. Except of course it was more like 23hrs a day, and is now closer to 21-22 hours due to the frequency of its charging.
We’ll see what Monday brings us.
Only just finished For All Mankind season 1. OMG, it’s so good. I really can’t believe who taken me this long.
Dark Island. It’s been a long, long time…
The Passing Out from the Edinburgh Military Tattoo is spectacular.
