I play video games and talk too much.
Got a new cable for my IEMs, feels much better than the stock one and tangles way less

I have never been an “in ear” user, but I decided to try and get used to them just so that I could enjoy good audio quality and noise isolation while going to and from work.
I have to use the smallest tip size these IEMs came with, but overall I am very pleased with the results

I finally satisfied one of my retro tech cravings and got an iPod.
It’s a 4th gen Classic with a new battery and a 64GB flash mod that replaces the original 20GB hard drive.
I synced my library on it and it reignited my love for music in a way that I haven’t felt in a while.

Tried to imagine what the MacBook Air would look like if it had the same color variations as the iMac.
I quite like how it came out, but I must admit that a laptop with these colors would be a bit much on the eyes

These are JPGs taken straight out of my Fuji camera with no editing on my side.
This is insane, I might as well shoot directly in JPG format and skip RAW files at this point (I am going to save them anyway)

Just edited the first photos I've taken with the Fujifilm, and I am even more impressed at what this camera can do

I have finally made the move to mirrorless!
Despite being a Nikon user for years I decided to get a Fujifilm camera, mostly because of lens prices.
I have to say that I am very impressed with this little machine, I cannot wait to have some fun with it

Today I spent some time organizing my local music library on my macbook and my desktop pc, in hope of slowly detaching myself from online streaming.
I must say that seeing it come together has been really satisfying

Finally managed to get a new PRAM battery for my 2006 MacBook Pro and it’s finally up and running again with Snow Leopard, I thought I would never see the day

After Spotify, I decided to give the same treatment to the Office icons.
The original ones are just logos on a white background, so I extended the design to the icon's margins using Inkscape and exported them to Icon Composer for the glass effect.

A month ago I decided to try making homemade #soap using olive oil and coconut oil, with a bit of eucalyptus essential oil.
I am very happy with the result, I made enough soap bars for me and a few friends and even ordered more silicone molds to give it different shapes.
Will definitely try again.

I didn't like the fact that the Spotify logo didn't fill the entire icon like other macOS apps, so I tried making it myself using the Icon Composer.
I think it would look much better if they went for something like this.

After a few different tries I finally managed to get a good audio quality on one of my tapes while recording some bossa nova.
Now that I understand how to make it work I’m thinking of going for some LoFi next, since it would fit the cassette aesthetic really well

The next thing I’m gonna show you today is this new addition to my #vintage computers collection.
It’s a 2006 #MacBook Pro armed with a dual core Intel CPU and 2 whole gigabytes of RAM.
It only runs using the charger, since the battery is dead, and it probably also needs a new PRAM battery.

I haven’t updated this account in a while, so the first thing I’m gonna show you is this awesome little console I got off of AliExpress called #R36S.
It runs #Linux (ArkOS) and supports a ton of emulators through #RetroArch.
I have been using it to play #Pokémon Emerald and I love it so much.

Switched terminal of choice to kitty on both my PC and the MacBook, and also updated the fastfetch config on the latter.
I really like kitty, it takes much more advantage of the hardware and it has a lot of integrated features that really come in handy.

I’ve been wanting a dedicated #music device for years now, and after some research I got this very cool audio player from Fiio.
I love the Walkman theme they went for, the graphics on the screen are really nice ( #skeuomorphism my beloved) and the #sound quality is great for such a small device

Yesterday I upgraded this HP 800 G2 to 16GB of RAM and replaced my Raspberry Pi server after 6 months of honoured service.
Also I love Docker for making it so easy to move everything from one computer to the other

I was able to get a ThinkPad E14 for a bargain price!
It has a 10th gen i7 and 16GB of RAM, really not bad.
And of course I have already put Arch on it.

We had a DVI monitor sitting unused at work.
So now my PowerMac has a 1920x1200 monitor.

I installed an app called RunCat on my MacBook and look at it.
It's just a resource monitoring app with a running cat icon but I love it.
I also noticed that the cat runs faster when more resources are being used, which is such a cool little detail.

One of my favourite parts of going to expos is scavenging for old video games to bring back home
