This water spill looks like Australia and some islands of Indonesia.

Listening to Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon. This album never gets old. 🎶

I had a heap of fun doing commentary on tonight’s NBL game on Twitch. Provides a reminder as to how well professionals can avoid dead air. Not easy to maintain constant dialogue! 🏀 🎙

I’m doing a Twitch commentary live stream of the first NBL game of the season today. Partnering with my podcast friend, Joe Corr, this is the first attempt at live-streaming by the NBL Pocket Podcast empire. 🏀

What’s that? I have to go back to work today? Noooooo!!!!

I think this is a great explanation.

I’ve reactivated Resilio Sync to share content between my iMac and MacBook Air (and possibly my iOS devices). Figured I owned a license, so may as well use it.

Facebook: deleted. WhatsApp: deleted. You’re on borrowed time, Instagram.

I’ve proceeded with a full Facebook account deletion. I previously archived it, but I’m so done with them now. Happy for the account to be trashed.

I want to say something stupid like, “go home, America, you’re drunk”, but this is more serious than that. How about,“impeach Trump immediately”?

I had the opportunity to use a Remarkable 2 yesterday. I don’t want one, I don’t want one… Help!!!

Kyle, from Apple Fitness+, is no joke. I tried hard, Kyle, I promise!

Back to Dropbox with Blot

About 18 months ago I transitioned the publishing of this site to use Git. It was cool, but overly cumbersome for my needs.

2020 Retrospective

What are the rules about linking to my own post on another website I own? Andrew Canion - 2020 Retrospective: For me, the narrative that 2020 was a complete write-off is not fair. A lot happened in 2020 and much of it has been positive and transformational.

2020 Retrospective

The general world-view of 2020 is that it was shit. In many ways, I agree. However, living in Perth, Western Australia in 2020 had to have been one to the best outcomes. We have been largely unaffected by COVID-19 in terms of community transmission. We had a period of lockdown as a precautionary measure. However, thanks to a combination of geographic isolation, good government and civil obedience we have been able to continue a relatively good standard of life.
