Not a fan of Christmas’s jumpers…. But just seen a range of Christmas’s onesies and they look great :)
Insanely snuggly n comfy… stays put. Sensory heaven & fun. What’s not to love :)
This feels like the next type of adaptive clothing to go mainstream :)

I’m on the tube for the 4th time in 5 years.
Yep. It’s terrible as ever. Yay for ear defenders and amazing friends supporting me with this stuff.

That’s really useful to know.
Stand wise, would you like me to make you one with the exact features ya need?
I’ve been making mounts / stands for my Switch using my 3D printer. It’s really fun decompression activity and i can make pretty much any shape. Sounds like fun :)

The first step is working out the model and prompt for most ‘Jamie friendly’ summary
I’ve made a sorta test tool to summarise a document I know well
Each row is testing a different combo of model + prompt.
My tool runs & gives me back the same file with responses in the bank space on the end.

Yesterday was so much fun! Spent the day going deep on open banking API stuff, then had a play with a funky dataset… then went to an amazing accessibility meet up in the evening.
Feels good! Having a slow start today but I’ve got a massive smile.
Squee. Life is good. All the busy in a good way :)

I love my desk and it’s pretty comfy… but heck… getting to my desk in the morning is hard.
It’s often the hardest transition of the day.
Doesn’t matter if I’m sitting there for gaming or for work, it’s always a bit of a challenge.
Once I’m settled it’s fine. Anyone else find it tricky?

Oooo. I haven’t updated on the Mounjaro stuff for a while
It’s been good, I’ve been on the 2.5mg starter dose for an around 10 weeks
All in, I’m down around 10kg which is having a huge positive effect on my mobility
If not having much effect now, so I’m stepping up to the 5mg dose from today :)

It’s ace!! I found it online from a company in Latvia called ‘dustrial’.
I like it so much I’ve ordered a similar style of tessellating shapes as a hoodie with a bright orange interior :)
Yay for things being on sale. *blush*

Cyberpunk fashion stuff gets properly weird sometimes!
The full face masks are right on the edge of cool / scary for me.
I imagine it’s a bit like a fursuit or cosplay outfit?
A chance for someone to try on a different identity and express themselves in a new way.
I bet it’s never boring :)

🧵 I’m also having fun trying out cyberpunk inspired clothes. My first exploration with a specific style / fashion
Here’s my most recent experiment. Loving the subtle hexagon tshirt, super lovely texture :)
The trousers are so comfy & soft. Love the funky style with the orange laces on the sides

Eeeee. So long annoying TV audio… Hello proper speakers & being able to hear speech clearly :)
Over the weekend I was helping a friend setup his home cinema & he gave me his old TV stand with integrated speakers
~17 years old, works perfectly & sounds great :)

Eee. The real thing. It came out better than I hoped :)
Amazed at how effective the 3D printer is. I made a phone mount and cup holders for my bed the same way.
Last step is to add a little soft felt to project the screen and stop it rattling :)

A little bit sore… good sore… Mostly :)

Love TinkerCad… designed a little mount that slips over the side of my bed to hold my Switch 📎
Will line the big slot with felt. The little slots are for glasses cleaning wipes… useful for my switch & my glasses.
Theres also a gap for plugging in a change cable :)
Should be real in 7ish hours :)

Brought some funky trousers inspired by my favourite outfit in Cyberpunk 2077 and absolutely loving them.
Never really done clothing this way before… slowly exploring styles and shapes I like.
Kinda cool it’s inspired by clothes shopping in a video game :)

Oh dear. The power cable for my graphics card appears to have melted at the power supply end.
Have opened a support ticket with Corsair to see an about getting a replacement. The cable is fully seated and it’s all well within spec.
Hopefully a quick turn around so i can rebuild my PC soon.

🧵 Part of my @ermiltd.bsky.social work is R&D on new tech & tools
One of my experiments is using graphics cards to speed up data pre-processing
This prototype loads 5 million rows of companies house data, applies a transform, filters out all inactive companies & writes to a file
All in 2 seconds!

Trying something new with my playroom… a big rejig to a fix some barriers & give me more comfy ways to sit :)
Desk end for when I can sit upright. Perfect for Mac, making Lego etc
Sofa end for when I can’t sit upright… I can sit or lay on the sofa… or setup my blue chair nest in the middle.
Woo!

Whoops. Ended up in a post office that was out of parcel wrapping paper… and it didn’t fit in a post bag.
Someone in the queue suggested using the WH Smith’s bags instead.
Three bags.. some tape.. a little folding…. Tada :)

Before I go do nerdy stuff for the day, here’s a pic of my current test bench build.
Absolutely love this thing :)
Great cooling & easy to change out parts as I do different projects etc.
It normally lives in an IKEA bookcase next to my desk. Quietly doing its thing & safely out of the way :)

Having a lot of fun playing with the character creator & photo mode in Cyberpunk 2077.
Something a little subversive and silly to take a mature themed game and try to make the cutest possible character.
Anime hair & the star face makeup make me smile lots :)
Impressive visuals for a Switch game!

Watched “One of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing” over the weekend… then discovered the large dinosaur prop was reused in Star War…
It’s the ‘Krayt Dragon’ skeleton half buried in fhe sand behind C3PO when they land on tatooine.
Weird but fun.

Had a pretty amazing day yesterday. Got out for a ride on the adapted analog bike
I’ve been slowly rebuilding my ability to ride it for the last 2 years. We lapped a proper MTB trail :)
Hardest ride I’ve ever done. Barely 1/3rd of what I used to do. But I don’t care. Amazed it happened at all!
