Regular Thursday?
It’s only been a week but having a dog is the most rewarding thing ever. Seriously, but no, this is just awesome. We are giving our 100% to her and she’s giving us 300% back.
OnePlus' official case - sandstone one - is really nice to touch and has pretty strong magnets. Very happy with it and I got it for free from OnePlus just because I bought a phone! Great stuff.
A 100W charger is a different game. Seriously. Charging for 10-20-30 minutes and gaining a meaningful battery life charge is something I haven’t yet experienced and I love it.
I’m not mad at apple doing nothing impactful to me because I have already moved onto the android train and honestly because I had to ditch the Pixel 8a (just wasn’t powerful enough unfortunately) I had to pick a new phone and could have picked an iphone. But didn’t.
I know it is very early but I HATE iOS 26 redesign. Seriously hate this liquid glass.
I did a thing. Bye Pixel! I needed something with more power and battery.
Her name is Ptyśka (closest translation would be cream puff), she’s a rescue, two years old and from now on - she lives with us! 🐕🥰
“When you think about it, this is nothing like the EU’s recent-ish mandate that most electronic devices must support USB-C ports for charging. I still think that law was unnecessary — the market forces had worked, and the whole world had either already moved (like iPads did starting in 2018) or was on the cusp of moving to USB-C (like iPhones).”
Holy fuck, I’m not the brightest but I know a bad take when I see one.
My iPod was getting full (I had only 128GB SD card in it) so I have added additional 256GB. This time we are golden.
The Studio - perfect. Per-fect.
Life is too short to listen to shitty podcasts, I say to myself when I try to skim through uninteresting parts of Cortex and simultaneously unsubscribing to LOTS of different podcasts that I haven’t listened to nor will listen to anytime in the future.
I like it more on Android. Big changes from what I remember from around 2018.
Voted.
I’m in between notes app - I’ve got copies of my notes in Standard Notes, Google Keep and Notion. 🙈
I see myself turning my phone notifications off more and more. I like when my phone is dead silent and I can check it when I want to. Also, double notifications (one on my pc, one on my phone) are so fucking annoying.
Dear old me, let’s just say that a couple of things has changed.
Just did it: github.com/Olsro/ipo…
I now have (nearly) all of the old iPod games on my iPod!
Also, Android stuck. I’m good. Like - seriously - everything works great. No issues (other than battery, but that’s fixable with either a power bank or - later on - getting a slightly better phone).
I’m very curious about these new, Chinese phones with 7000/8000 mAh batteries. This is bonkers. But also, I’m not going to use something that isn’t the Pixel experience because this is wild how good it is.
I reinstalled Windows like I said a couple of days ago but didn’t have a chance to actually configure it for a week, so I’m on Mac for my second week, and honestly, it’s so refreshing.
Not sure if I would change my decision in the past from this tower PC to some kind of Mac Mini. On one hand, Windows is bad, and Linux lacks some apps I need for work. On the other, I’m playing games on my PC (not in last week though, but it was a crazy week in my defense!) and I very much like it.
I’m going to configure it later for sure, but maybe I should make my PC exclusively a personal gaming machine with no work on it at all? Maybe that’s the move?
