  • Popped into work today to pick up a $100 Pak ’n Save voucher then I decided to join in on the end of the year get together at the local bowling alley along with some light refreshments and some nibbles. On Thursday I’ll head into the store to pick up some groceries – still tossing…

  • On the good news front Ubiquiti has released the first beta build of the 2.x UniFiOS for UDM and UDM Pro which will not only result in superior reliability, lower resource usage and lots more nice things, it also lays the foundation for future updates to come a lot quicker as they’re bought into alignment…

  • MarsEdit 5 has been released and I’ve upgraded from version 4 to version 5 – it is a lot faster and responsive.

  • When Elon Musk took over Twitter I expected some migration from those who had already planned an exit strategy but the reality was more than I could have imagined to the point that within a space of seven days there have been around 275000 new accounts created with an average of 3000-4000 new accounts created…

  • Well, I’ve finally did it – I deleted all my tweets, retweets, likes etc. from my Twitter account and now it is completely empty – nothing there. I deleted it all using TweetDelete (link) – it does have a limit of only being able to 3200 tweets, retweets, likes etc at a time so depending on…

  • With the launch of Android 13 I thought it would be best to provide some links to some articles that go into detail regarding the ‘under the hood’ changes that Google has in Android. https://blog.esper.io/android-13-deep-dive/ https://blog.esper.io/what-is-project-mainline/ Not necessarily a Google fan myself but it’s always good to see what the alternative platforms are doing.
