So X now shows locations for people and turns out a bunch of MAGA types aren’t even American. Half the people on here are living through alter egos.

When everyone is faking, it stops being fun.

Pris does love this spot in the utility room, out of the way I suppose 🤷‍♂️

Operating systems are just so bland and lifeless now.

An absolutely beautiful start to the day.

The internet is mind-bogglingly resilient.

Except when everyone runs everything on the same frigging giant corporate services.

The old internet was so much better at this, except for the slashdotting.

On #1 of 24, Black Whiskey from Peru. Very nice indeed!

My morning coffee was brought to me inside a gingerbread man.

Christmas is coming it seems.

Christmas decorations are appearing all over the house.

Mid-November you say?

Front garden definitely looks autumnal.

I’ve claimed that. The mountain that is, not the boat.

It’s a caldera don’t you know…
Built in 1975 as the MV 'Dayspring', this boat was wrecked in a storm in 2011 on the shores of Loch Linnhe, Scotland, near Fort William. Britain's highest mountain at 1,345 metres (4,413 ft), Ben Nevis makes for an arresting backdrop.

I had one of these! Never had to suffer rubber keys whilst I learned Z80 and BASIC 😝
It's been a while since I browsed through adverts and wanted something so badly.

Watched the new Superman, wife hated it as it played into the modern tendency to show men as weak and pathetic and women as never happy and/or flawless.

I enjoyed it, but not as a Superman movie. Superdog was awesome!

Proper autumnal weather! A slither of sunset.

It’s worth getting up!

Really need to get up, look at the wonderful sunshine!

I instantly block (online) or ignore (in person) anyone who spouts nonsense like this, or anti-vax or flat earth or whatever other stupidity.

Imagine gaining knowledge from TikTok 🤣

My wife has made pumpkin muffins.

I also did not know pumpkin was so good for dogs!

I was in NYC recently and was taken aback with the aisle upon aisle of stuff locked up.

Even low value items like toothpaste.

In one of the richest cities on the planet it all felt very dystopian.

I did a small amount of work on my Smalltalk thing last night.

It was fun, but I think I want to do something else now!

I like doing graphics, I like doing complex stuff in Rust.

My youngest son and I are digging through the sh*t tons of Lego to build minifigs. Even managed to find some of my Lego from when I was a kid! I still have the crater base tiles somewhere!!

At the public library. Cartography, design and architecture are my usual targets.

Love brutalism! Don’t you think this building looks a bit like Battlestar Galactica?…
