I wish Apple made a computer that would work as a gaming station. Because I want to play games on my pc but the idea of having ANOTHER device is making me mad.

During the holidays my routines were nonexistent. That means, obviously, I didn’t take any of my prescribed meds because I forgot about them and I ate food irregularly. It feels good to be back to my normal schedule – all medication taken, already consumed one Huel… I’m definitely back on track <3.

20 Things That Happened for the First Time in 2023 – The New York Times:

20 Things That Happened for the First Time in 2023
A series of surprising and serious events and trends that were unprecedented until now.

Number 5 will shock you?

The Anti Social – just something I was thinking:

Probably in 2020 when everyone felt hopeless due to Covid, I created an entry I dated to Dec 31 with 50 memories I loved from the year. And another post on the same day with the books I read, and some of the movies and tv shows and other media I enjoyed.

I’d love to have this kind of will to journaling. I’m doing my best and it’s fine but I’d like to be like this guy one day.

Same.

If I’m gonna consider getting Ricoh GR III just slap me and tell me to buy Sony A7, because I DO already have ASP-C camera with exchangeable lenses and what I’d actually want is full frame camera. Thank you.

Christmas are actually the worst time for me food-wise. I’m not a fan of fish, mayo, mushrooms… therefore I can’t really enjoy them. I actually miss Huel, I’d love to have it with me 🫣

Reminder to myself – Canon G5X Mark II is great but my old Sony A6000 beats it in low light conditions. Bigger sensor is bigger sensor, no way around that.

Christmas Eve made me do it, finally. After a year of not posting I just pulled the plug.

Apple please bring Journal.app to macOS. I like it very much but because if iOS only limitation I’ve started using Day One couple weeks ago. It works fine – sure. But I liked Apple’s UI a bit more.

Tip during Christmas: create new NextDNS accounts for parents (or add them to your plan) with custom configuration and just set it up on their router. Quick, easy and this will make their local network much safer. You can also tweak config from far away pretty easily. Thank me later.

Pokemoning hard. Anbernic RG35XX (love that name, rolls out on your tongue perfectly) is awesome device to play retro games on. Highly recommended if you have that itch in you. Plays everything up to PS1 included, charges with usb-c and costs ~$50-60. Love it.

Interesting times when to have chromium-based browser that WORKS as intended I’m actually thinking about using Chrome again.

Also – dear Arc. Before you change the way the web works, please make your *browser* work. Like, make it NOT freeze every couple of minutes with all of the buttons unusable. Make it not hide tabs (and I know they are hidden because camera shows there’s an active tab using it)… Please, get basics right first.

Jack Baty | But you ARE building a web browser:

I love Arc. It’s great. The team building Arc is enthusiastic, talented, and obviously love what they’re doing. But I have to admit that their year-end video “We’re not building a web browser” has me a little concerned. I mean, you are building a web browser. Be excited, sure, but calm down a little on the change-the-world rhetoric. It’s still a web browser. And the “I remember when I used Apple. My kids use Arc.” was dreamy nonsense.

At this point my takes are Jack’s takes. I could just copy his posts to show what I’m thinking. This is exactly my take on Arc’s newest video.
