Feeling a bit beat up after the last two weeks. Work busy and a little bit of ill health coupled with a lack of sleep has left me feeling bust. Also entering that time of year when I start and finish work in the dark so important to get out for some fresh air when I can. Also getting increasingly frustrated with the bugs on macOS Tahoe. I do hope 26.1 focusses on bugs only as this release feels more like an early beta.
Indefinite Backpack Travel – I always struggle to travel light so it amazes me how much and yet so little is packed into this one bag.
A cartoonist’s review of AI art – thought provoking post from cartoonist Matthew Inman on the threat and also disappointment of the growing use of AI for sketches/comics/graphics. Some is great, vast majority is slop.
A deep dive into the rss feed reader landscape – comes from Lighthouse which is a paid for cloud hosted feed reader but it’s an accurate summation of where the market is right now. Still view RSS as better way of keeping on top of things vs social media.
Space Harrier at 40 – scary that games I loved are now this old. I’ve played this in a normal static arcade cabinet and also a couple of times in a motion one – it felt like the future. So good.
Blue Lights has been one of the best police dramas in years but episode 1 of season 3 felt a bit flat. How foolish was I – devoured the other 5 over a weekend on iPlayer and it was tremendous. Highly recommended.
Peacemaker season 2 kept up standard from the first season. Loved it…and it might be the last?
Celebrity Traitors has been an autumn gift. Only 4 episodes in but probably the best series so far. Alan Carr – who knew!
