Something I found out about and loved ever since - you can get really cheap domains if you buy .ovh domains on OVH or six~ number dot xyz on Cloudflare. Honestly, they’re like $3 a year and now I own too many of them.
The EU wants Apple to open AirDrop and AirPlay to Android and other platforms
Looks like another great feature will be made better thanks to EU!
Halfway there.
Soon it’s going to be two weeks without Vivaldi Sync…
Big, proper games won’t come to macOS as long as storage on Macs remains so prohibitively expensive. You can’t reasonably consider buying a game that takes up 50% or more of your disk space.
Vivaldi sync stopped working a week ago and it’s taking ages to be fixed. At this point I’m thinking of getting to Chrome again…
End of the year on iOS homescreen:
Ending 2024 homescreen-wise:
Just ordered new iPod Nano 7 Gen battery. Let’s fucking try it.
Let’s imagine for a second that this isn’t a blogpost or microblog post but my ICQ/jabber status.

Instead of buying an iPod I should just get mp3 of whatever is missing on Apple Music, put it onto the iPhone and save about $100. I know this is the way to go but it FEELS wrong because I could get a new toy that I’ve always wanted that I will ditch after two weeks (days even probably).
I’ve had about four Windows updates in the span of three days. Each one, of course, requires a reboot. So now, instead of letting it update my PC, I’ve postponed every single update for five weeks just so it finally lets me use the PC without being in a constant state of rebooting. This has never changed—every single macOS, iPhone, or Android update is something I welcome with open arms, but whenever Windows needs updating, I’m on the verge of crying myself to sleep at the mere thought of it.
That’s a lamp.
Honestly it’s a gimmick but when it works and is useful, it’s crazy good.
The biggest tech revelation for me this year is that I don’t have to rely on Apple that much. I’ve embraced the open waters. I haven’t moved to Android completely (yet?), but I’m a bit of a “two-phones” type of guy now. I dropped the Apple Watch and went with a Whoop + normal watch combo. Apart from my Mac, I got myself a really nice tower PC that I use every day. There’s more to it, too—I had to find multi-platform apps, and I’m happy to say I’m good. Everything works great, and I live happily in this messy ecosystem.
Apparently, I didn’t need so many things I thought were necessities. It’s freeing.
Wait, so with 18.2 I’m not getting ChatGPT powered Siri on older devices? What?
New watch who this.
Took me five years to draw a dick with my weight data.
One day I might even accept being a two phone person.
Never change iOS widgets. Never change.
I wish new hobbies wouldn’t cost about $100 to start. I’m looking at used iPods and some of them are very cheap but need some tinkering…
Leaving Apple Watch behind will be problematic for sure, but holy shit I will not miss my wrist vibrating whenever there’s a notification from an app that I forgot to turn off on the AW. Too old to being easily bothered with access to myself.
Made up my mind. Just paid for a year of Whoop (thanks to Cyber Monday discount I saved about €60) and bought a normal, regular watch. Now I’m gonna be able to track all of my activity, be less dependent on Apple ecosystem and finally rock a watch that could work for my entire life. I’d say that’s a good thing.
I don’t want to but I have to admit - Windows is as buggy/crashy as it was advertised on reddit and such. My MacBook’s uptime is like 7 days and that’s because I updated it a week ago. I’m feeling happy when my Windows machine works a couple days without crash.
