I decided to have a relaxing day hanging around at home – yeah, I like to get out of the house on my day off but today the weather was wet and cold so I decided hanging around watching some videos and having a tandoori chicken for lunch/early dinner was more the pace I wanted to cruise at today. Some of the videos were political while others were technology with a few random ones about building a log cabin in the woods – it’s one of the reasons I loath algorithms so much because god help you if you’re left wing and like watching homesteading videos of people building log cabin and vegetable gardens because you’ll end up getting an avalanche of right wing content then spending a good porting telling the algorithm that you’re not interested in it. I didn’t go for a walk today but I had no carbs, just some protein (chicken) and some mushroom soup – learning to moderate my diet so that exercise is an icing on the cake rather than a necessity to keep the calories in/out are kept in balance.

Over the last few weeks I have been binge watching a few shows – I finally got myself into watching ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ and now I’m waiting for the final episode of the final season. Law & Order Organized Crime is another great television series that is worthy of binge watching, Foundation is coming back along with Twisted Metal and a few others. I might end up getting the DVD player off mum so I can watch some of the DVDs I’ve got laying around – I am tempted to rip them and back them up so then I can stream them to any device so if I am not in the lounge room on the big television I can watch it on my laptop (there is also the fact that media degrades over time even with the best storage).

I’m looking forward to the end of the week, going out to a restaurant for dinner on Sunday (I’ve got three days off) with my family and will be enjoying a few days off. I’m excited to see what WWDC has in store and I’ll do a blog overview regarding the two big keynotes and anything interesting that pops up on any of the sessions that they have planned for the week. On a side note, I’ve backed up my 2FA codes to my Google account using Google Authenticator as a back up just in case something happens to the 2FA codes that I have entered via Authenticator (made by 2Stable and backed up to iCloud).
