All of the card machines at WH Smith’s at Manchester Airport aren’t working. Having to acquire a Boots meal deal for my journey instead. 😀

Busy sorting out my collection of house music to DJ at a company offsite. Forgot about all of the things you need to think about when using Rekordbox. I'm hoping I've formatted everything properly this time. 🤞

Yes, I did buy gingerbread Kit Kats at the supermarket. No, I would not buy them again. 🤢

Fixed the RSS feed for my website notes this morning. @11ty.dev makes it super easy to do. Except I got caught out by caching. I must remember that dates are cached in JSON as strings. 🤦

I hate to say it but I wouldn't have been able to reset the MacBook without Claude. Both an IT company and Apple told me I wouldn't be able to unlock the machine without the recovery key. It saved the day.

I have an old MacBook which is stuck in mobile device management limbo. It's been removed from MDM and Apple Business Manager but nobody has a recovery key. Performing surgery to see if I can sort it.

I want to stay up and make my workflow support posting threaded messages but it’s late and I’m old. I’m going to have to write a blog post about this too. POSSE for the win.

I always love the Adam Buxton podcast. This new episode also mentions the comedian Phil Cool, a name I haven’t heard since the late 80s. My brother and I often quoted him. A very funny man with a very rubbery face.

I’ve been really enjoying the On The Mend podcast recently after discovering it on Instagram. This episode on goal setting is great.

I’m not really prepared to take my 18 year old son to university at the weekend. I know he’ll have a fantastic time and his independence will mean a lot. But this dad isn’t ready for his first-born to leave home yet. 😭

How the heck do you split up the oak planks in neal.fun/not-a-robot/ level 21? My son tells me we need to create sticks and split the diamonds but no idea how to do it. A brilliantly frustrating game!

I've just spent the past 2 hours trying to get Tailscale to work on my son's phone. A frustrating experience as logging in with his Apple account meant it created a user that could never log into my Tailnet. Lots of Reddit and GitHub rabbit holes and eventually using a different account. 0/10 fun.

Gary Barlow was in the year above and did O-Level music with my mate. Walked home with him a few times. Genuinely lovely bloke at school and he was a great performer.

I was in Berlin earlier in the week for some meetings and Pockets Casts had downloaded a few podcast episodes from my subscriptions. I never realised that adverts at dynamically generated in some shows so they’re now in German. TIL. 💡

I’m really enjoying going back to RSS feeds again. Seeing interesting longer-form articles rather than short social posts is fun.
