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.
Innovation is wonderful. After 30 years of suffering through using a Windows PC at work I’ve moved watching an hourglass and manually managing open apps, to watching a spinning circle and still manually managing open apps.
I hope this gets protected as listed status to archive it for future generations. Both for the Muslims of Glasgow and for personal reasons as my grandfather made the crescent which adorns the top.
The French have turned watching the opening ceremony into an Olympic endurance sport
Great job with KamaLaw & Order. Love this
Tom Tugendhat’s Tory leadership campaign mocked for ‘Turd’ acronym
My iPhone just randomly lost contact photo and the number of steps to add only a contact photo is insane.
I wish there was a way to disable the pointless contact poster feature so that I don’t have to take the additional steps to bypass it.
I’m struck by the hypocrisy over the Dujardin video. I mean how does anyone think you can get an animal to “dance” without acts or cruelty. This “sport” should have been banned decades ago.
Really looking forward to never seeing this again for a while
All aboard the M3 train. After years of delay, deliberation and false starts I’ve ordered a new MacBook. Finally
The plot thickens courtesy of Amazon undercutting Apple’s new price and only £111 more than the refurbished price.
Boarding the M3 Train
One month later and my indecision over a new MacBook continues.
Currently I’m debating with myself over to jump on the M3 Pro train before it finally leaves the station or wait for the M4 train due in a few weeks. I’m particularly looking at a refurbed M3 Pro with a healthy discount.
I’ve also ditched the decision not to invest in a high end dock and bought a Caldigit TS4, despite not owning a compatible Mac. This should have hastened my decision, given Amazons 30 day return window.
Yesterday I went further than before, quite literally, walking into an Apple Store and (again) looking at the current hardware. Maybe it’s time to actually board this train even if the new M4’s aren’t too far off.
