Genuine everyday use for ChatGPT that also makes me feel old and that’s translating the slang my niece uses.

It has confirmed she still makes no sense!

That’s it; after hell knows how many years, eX has gone. Cute without the e.

So I think I worked out a decent daily journalling app logseq.com, only to find a new (also open source) solution, acreom.com.

Will try along side Logseq and see what I prefer.

Whilst all my physical games are in storage, it’s given me time to look for something a little different. I wanted something that’s not a long term commitment but could get your teeth into for a few minutes or hours. I even wanted something a little “cosy”! But I think I found it on Game Pass…

How are folks managing their macOS settings via “dotfile” repos?

I hear lots about nix-darwin but seems like a steep learning curve and could be problematic on corporate machines. I’m trying to build a setup file via bash but it’s a slog without good documentation. 😓

Will be posting random ramblings about software engineering, video games, climbing and whisky soon. Sometimes those things will mix together in some weird way. Hell, why not all four, it’s almost Christmas after all!

I’ve been on this platform for a little bit but haven’t made the effort of posting or actively following folks yet. Will take some time coming from “the other place” but I like to think starting afresh with be a healthy experience!
