The only good thing is that it all happened BEFORE I’ve started moving her off Fastmail to gmail, so there’s literally nothing to do.
Remember my all-gmail thingy from two weeks ago? Just reverted everything to Fastmail because my wife likes it too much (I do too, honestly). Oh well.
Feels good to be on Huel again. I didn’t take it on holidays and I did regret it a couple times when I was wondering what should I eat. Today there were no questions asked. Also - got this new curry madras and I like it very much. So far mexican chilli, katsu curry and this madras curry are the best.
A reasonable thing to do is to keep my iPhone as long as possible, observe what’s happening between Apple and Google and then decide what phone should I get.
I can’t stop thinking about getting a Pixel phone. Honestly this might be it, I might pull the trigger.
Figuring new stuff out.
I think Google Chrome is the best looking browser out there. 🤷🏻♂️
I think I might just make an experiment and just on paper figure out how expensive putting my smart-home on Google-enabled system would be. Like, if I would like to go Android, how much actually I would need to spend?
Pretty good so far! I didn’t miss a day, even if some of my entries are just „too tired to even think about my day”. I’m really happy with how my journal is shaping up. I can see and understand what I did and feel a month ago. Also I’ve convinced some friends to journal as well and their feedback was nothing but positive.
People hating on these new Apple policies and blaming the EU - just wait for the EU’s response. I’m pretty sure the EU will hold Apple accountable and push for the abolition of most of these fees. Also, Android, Windows, or even macOS are as open as the EU wants to make iOS, and there are no ridiculous fees to be paid. People aren’t sinking in malware there. Apple is the one being ridiculous and needs to be forced to make a change. Being an Apple fanboy/defender isn’t doing any good. Corporations aren’t your friends.
Apple announces changes to iOS, Safari, and the App Store in the European Union - Apple
This change is a result of the DMA’s requirements, and means that EU users will be confronted with a list of default browsers before they have the opportunity to understand the options available to them. The screen also interrupts EU users’ experience the first time they open Safari intending to navigate to a webpage.
😂😂😂
Holidays are perfect for changing investment strategy. I’m gonna sleep better now.
TIL: you can have as many as 8 (eight!) eSIM cards added to your iPhone. Found out because I wanted to get local esim for internet and it just let me without deleting any of my simcards. Also - I can use dual-sim with two esims!
Wife (2). She’s stunning. 😍

Interesting times app-wise. Just testing something out.
One of these is not made by Google.
In a motion to tighten our budget I think I’m gonna move us from Fastmail to gmail with forwardemail.net to use our custom domains. $3 per month instead of $10 is a welcome change. And I don’t care about email that much (I only care to use my own domain and not gmail’s).
Hear me out - but what if I’d switch to Windows actually? A proper desktop machine with lots of RAM and pretty good graphics? I could do the work, play games and even virtualise shit and make dev things for fun too!
I would like an Android phone just to fuck around and find out part of it.
But I need to remember, now and again, that Apple is a corporation, and corporations aren’t people, and they can’t love you back. You wouldn’t love GE or Exxon or Comcast — and you shouldn’t love Apple. It’s not an exception to the rule: there are no exceptions.Source: inessential: Corporations Are Not To Be Loved
OMG since I’m no longer podcasting I think I can try iPad only because I think I’ll be able to do everything on iPad now! Holy shit. I think I’m gonna try it.
So, I had to go on vacation to finally successfully self-host Yunohost with all the apps I wanted? Because it works flawlessly, fulfilling all my expectations, and costs approximately $5 per month with Contabo VPS. Great stuff.
I think not wanting to be on the internet is next level holidays. 🤙🏻
