After doing some shopping today I came home, watched some YouTube and then cooked the chicken and had that with some fresh bread. The chicken was ok but would have much preferred having a tandoori butterflied chicken but I guess the Manuka Honey & Rosemary butterflied chicken is good enough. After enjoying the meal I then watched some more television then went for a 11.6km walk – get back into a routine and enjoy the good weather along with the fresh air.

uBlock Origin Lite version 2025.1207.2142 has been released – it is available on the iOS App Store however it hasn’t come to the Mac App Store year. It appears there has been some under the hood changes so I’m looking forward to seeing whether there is any noticeable performance improvement. There is an update for Apple’s platforms possibly in the next couple of days which includes Safari being updated so I’ll keep an eye on any improvements.

Regarding how things are going with iCloud – I’ve got three domains, one for this blog and two which and different suffixes (.net and .com) which allows me to have 9 email aliases in total. So far things have been working reliably although it was funny on my laptop I had to manually add the aliases within the Mail app but on my Mac Studio when I set it up the Mail app was automatically configured during the setup and installation process. The process of selecting a suffix is relatively easy although some services may get confused and see the email as invalid if it has a suffix other than a traditional .com, .net or something country specific. Keeping that in mind, the suffix chosen can result in a variety of prices such as a .org suffix being priced different than say one ending in .io.
