Today, I decided it was finally time to change my primary text editor from Sublime to Kate. No particular reason, apart from wanting to shift back to using more open-source tools in my day-to-day life where possible. Over the last 6–7 years, macOS has been my primary platform due

This morning's run was bloody cold. I think it was around -2 Celsius. When it drops below 0, that's when the Runderwear and Skins come out to play. It's been so long, I'd forgotten how hard it can be to get in

That's a terrible title, but I couldn't think of what else to write. How many of you out there played the original Guild Wars? Because I played the living snot out of it. Now it's getting some visual and audio updates, along with a

Firstly, let's begin with “What a day”. Like everyone else, Cloudflare outages for today made life much more difficult than it needed to be. I'm not going to get into my feelings on sticking everything on the internet behind Cloudflare. There are enough posts out there

The house viewing at the weekend went well, and I quite liked the place. It's not perfect, but I don't think I'd ever get everything I wanted. So, we've arranged a second viewing for the weekend, and they know we're

I know, it's all over your feeds, your inbox, probably in your ears, too. But there's really only one thing worth talking about today. And that's the hardware release announcement for the new Steam hardware. I awoke this morning to this absolute mic drop

There's been nothing special about the day, really. It's just been generally pleasant. It started with a nice run in the dark of the morning, with just enough light for me to see where I was going without my head torch. Just me, the birds, and

I know I've already made my post for today. But I was sat here perusing my news feed with the torrential rain hammering against the window. And up popped this news story from MacStories. This couldn't wait. There is no way of describing this, besides: It&

After not renewing my NFL GamePass subscription with DAZN this year, I've also taken an interest in the CFL. I'm not going to lie, it's been fantastically entertaining. I decided to concentrate my time on the BC Lions, mainly because I just love the
