Our first winter with an EV! We definitely noticed some reduced range, so we have to charge it more frequently. Not really a big deal (we have level 2 charging in our garage). The cabin heats up so much faster! And no more "Is it too cold for our car to start?" anxiety. ⚡️❄️👍

As a long-time Jenkins user I have to say: the latest UI improvements are really nice! I run a local copy (via Homebrew) to keep up with the latest and it looks so much better.

One of the small joys of owning a newer car is the seemingly endless amount of windshield washer fluid it can hold.

I finally saw Dune parts 1 and 2 during my flights to and from London. It’s ok. I like part 1 more than 2. This probably speaks to my age, but I still kind of prefer the David Lynch version.

It would be very on-brand if the Eglinton Crosstown LRT was further delayed by spontaneous combustion. 👈 This will probably only make sense if you live in Toronto.

The family is in London this week. We went to Borough Market and I finally had one of the sausage roles from The Ginger Pig. AMAZING. And their Cornish pasty is also stellar!
