  • I had a nice meal from Bowl’d – chicken, a good helping of vegetables, a couple of grilled eggs to finish it all off. I had some food at home here but I really did feel the need for a good helping of vegetables, at least giving me the feeling that I was eating something…

  • As the end of the year draws closer the big players in silicon valley prepare to launch the last product updates out to the market. Google has a launch event for 6 October which includes the Pixel phone along with the Pixel watch. I really hope that Google will bring the Pixel phone to New…

  • Well, the end of another week and sure enough we’re closing in on the end of this year so quickly that by the time February rolls around next year it will mark me working for the company I am at for five years. It is interesting how as you get older it feels as though…

  • At 5:10 this morning Apple released tvOS 16, iOS 16, Safari 16 and macOS 12.6 released – they were decent size downloads and it took a while to install. So far everything has been very reliable particularly with Safari 16 which has been rock solid and no problems with AdGuard, the issue with Google Chat…

  • Well, that was the first week of my new work schedule and so far I absolutely love it. The days I start at 11:30 I can do half at work and half at home then on the days I start at 13:30 I can work from home the whole day. One of the benefits of…

  • This week is the start of a new shift schedule, three days a week I start at 11:30 (finishing at 20:00) and two days a week I start at 13:30 (finishing at 22:00) – I’m able to go home at 16:30 on my ‘lunch’ so then I can finish my shift off at home, something…

  • Back to using Safari after having some flirtation with Chrome. Funny enough after moving back and using Google Chat it appears that they’ve addressed the scrolling issue (it wouldn’t scroll down after sending a message resulting in having to manually scroll down after each message sent). It’s one of those things where a bug has…

  • Well, after working all day I thought “I’ll treat myself to some KFC delivered” so it I ordered it online, it arrived 20 minutes late and half of the order was missing and was cold, I sent it back with the driver and the replacement arrived with it missing the coleslaw and drinks. During the…

  • The weather has been atrocious so I told my boss that it would best to work from home to avoid the cold weather. I’d prefer to going into work since it provides a ‘wall of separation between work and home life’ which avoids the two from intermingling resulting in personal time being overtaken by work.…

  • Well, something strange occurred this week. I logged into my iCloud account to check something with my domain settings then checked my mail settings – funny enough it appears that Apple had fixed the issue where I had an old custom domain email alias still appearing in the iCloud Mail aliases even though I had…
