I’m enjoying the native swipe keyboard in iOS 13. I also like the mini keyboard available for iPadOS.
I’ve not had Dropbox installed for months, and haven’t missed it at all. In an earlier time it was indispensable.

I made a “Piggy’s got the conch” reference in a meeting today and nobody got it. What is the world becoming?
After months of enjoyment I’ve now completed Zelda Breath of the Wild. What an amazing game. Possibly the best game I’ve ever played. 🕹
My superpower: ability to get sunburn on a 22 degree day.

I bought Untitled Goose Game for Switch today. I knew it was published by Panic, but didn’t know it was Australian made. Good to have supported the local industry. 🕹

My Apple Watch Series 1 battery has suddenly become incapable of holding a day’s worth of charge. It’s like it knows the Series 5 has been released. ⌚️
Is The Far Side making a comeback? I was obsessed with these comics as a young teen growing up in the early nineties. Our science teacher would stick a new comic up in his classroom every day. Reading it each morning was the highlight of the day.
