With this much sleep, how is it that I still feel tired and run-down?
In the latest episode of @hemisphericviews we learn that I’m an expert in cooling your home, @burk discovers an app that no one has ever heard of and @martinfeld gets hung up on spelling and grammar for a moment (surprise!). Pocket Casts episode link
Coffee time. Today it’s that weird Western Australian coffee, “skinny long mac topped up”. Fortunately I’m friendly with the barista else I’d have felt like a complete dick ordering that.
The newest recording of @hemisphericviews is in the can. Or on the SSD. In the iCloud data centre. Look, it’s done, okay?

Another Crack at Git
Monday, July 12, 2021
Not long ago on this site I stated that I was fed up with git and that I was switching back to Dropbox. I did. It was still infuriating because I refuse to install the Dropbox client for this one measly application. So I’m back to git. Instead of using Atlassian’s Sourcetree for managing the files on my Mac, this time I’m going with GitHub Desktop. I chose Sourcetree the first time around because it was a native Mac app whereas GHD is an Electron app.

Today I’ve experienced Lebanese dessert delights from Youssef Sweets. Amazingly delicious. I could become a regular customer.
So what you’re telling me is, patrons of @HemisphericViews also get a monthly “Hemispheric News” newsletter? And if I want to get that, plus all the other perks, I simply go to oneprimeplus.com? Amazing!
Why do dishwashers take so long?
It was fun to watch Ash Barty win Wimbledon tonight. What a great player. The level of skill needed to play tennis well is crazy.
I was given the most hilarious product tour of Big Mail today by @Burk. Highlight of my day! He needs to do a video recording of it for all to see.
Doing the Switch SD shuffle getting data off two small SD cards in favour of one big one. My attempts to transfer via computer failed, so now I’m switching cards like I’m playing Wings on an Amiga 500 with one floppy drive.

A fun romp with some requirement on behalf of the viewer to be “hand wavey” about time continuity. Perhaps ran a bit long. I enjoyed it though.

Three Things Today | tyler.io: So what is Three Things? Well, it’s a calendar that lets you schedule tasks on each day. It’s meant to be excruciatingly pragmatic and realistic about how life works. (At least my life.) It literally will not allow you to schedule more than three tasks per day. This is a nifty little application. Pick three things. Do them. If you don’t, defer them. That’s about it.
Seeing as @Burk and @martinfeld have shared their desktops, here’s mine.
Played Skip-Bo tonight after buying it on a whim today. Hadn’t played it for about 25 years. Backed it up with some Uno. Wholesome family fun.
