  • Another day, another example of a tech YouTuber failing to do the bare minimum.

    The saga regarding SSDs continues as one of the major instigators behind the hysteria admits that they didn’t update their SSD firmware and the firmware on their motherboard was at least 9 months out of date yet he insists on blaming Microsoft. I don’t know about you but if you want any sort of credibility…

  • A relaxing couple of days.

    I decided for the couple of days off that I would just enjoy the fine art of doing nothing – just relaxing at home watching a few tv series, pop down to to the supermarket to pick up some groceries for the week. Part of the groceries included getting a variety of meal options which…

  • I’m going to say it, the new iPhone is pretty good.

    One more day to go and the weekend cannot come soon enough. After work I went for another long walk because I needed to get some negative vibes out of my system after dealing with some ‘interesting’ customers – the sort that insist because they’ve watched a few episodes of Perry Mason that it somehow…

  • It was a good day.

    I was able to spend the day off the phones replying to emails and other office related work then after work I went for a walk then came home to have the last bit of the turkish bread I bought on Tuesday (I put in the freezer to keep it fresh – I defrosted it…

  • Meh.

    Today was pretty meh, got up, logged in, worked for the day – nothing unusual, the usual flow of customers so nothing out of the ordinary. After work I went for an 11.6km walk then came back, had a shower then completed a few puzzles on the internet. I had a look at Microsoft 365…

  • I wouldn’t wait with bated breath for the corrections.

    Well, it appears that all the hype and hysteria was about nothing – as I noted in a previous post, there are many factors at play and given how limited the report there must be a logical reason for what is occuring. Well, it appears that the problem comes back to out of date firmware…

  • Back to work tomorrow.

    Today was a busy day. I had a wonderful sleep last night after having a bit of a shocker of a sleep from Sunday night – 5 hours of sleep vs a solid 10 hours of sleep. I woke up this morning with the sound of mum telling me that we had dinner tonight and…

  • I need a new pair of shoes.

    It has been almost a year, and I need to buy a new pair of shoes – the heel my right shoe is falling to pieces but keeping in mind the number of kilometres I have walked since the beginning of the year. Tomorrow (Tuesday) I’ll be going out with my siter, partner along with…

  • End of another week.

    Well, that is the end of another week and start of a new one. After finishing work my goal was to do at least 17.4km but I was hoping to do walk 23.2km but my legs were too sore and the temperature was too cold that I really needed to get home. I got home…

  • That was a good work out.

    Finished work tonight and went straight into my night walk – I’ve just come back and all I can say is that it was one heck of a work out. My original goal was to do 17.4 but I decided to go all the way and complete 23.2km which took around 3 hours and 45…
