The zucchini seeds are already sproutingโ€ฆ that was fast. Not all have started but a fair few have - one is even way ahead of the others and has its first set of leaves

TGIF. Not much to do today except make some tutorials out of some meetings I had last week.

Then dinner with a friend, getting some new glasses (finally) and maybe an amp to make my current setup stereo instead of just mono.

Enjoy your day everyone โค๏ธ

For the metal heads in here, a new Blood Incantation album just dropped. It incorporates their prog elements with their metal side of things really well. First impressions are I really like it and it just might be my album of the year.

both last time and this time iโ€™ve been having a day long mild headache is that causation or correlation

Forced downtime so trying to take advantage and somewhat death clean myself.

Stuff = 1, Moi = 0

Why are there just some things that are inconvenient to store nicely. Yes, I have a gazillion ring-bound manuals. No, I havenโ€™t opened them in forever. Yes, I need them.

Ugh. Cupboards are both the best and worst.

Had a convo with a couple of colleagues the other day about dark mode. They dont understand how I can work with it. I dont understand how you can use all white in office or outlook and that NOT hurt your eyes? so DT, what do you use? I'm dark mode all the way. Windows, Office apps, even my phone.

[โ€“] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 5 points 1 week ago

Dark mode all the way. Your colleagues are weird.

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Dark mode, no argument. The only correct answer is dark mode. It's easier to see, write, and read, and doesn't give me a headache.

Normal/light mode, I can literally feel my eyes strain and ache, my retina blasted away by the searing white light.
Edit: just realised light mode is the same feeling I get when I'm reading a book, and the sunlight hits the page just right so it glows, but you're too comfy to move and try to read through it... And go blind

No presents, sunshine or shopping today?

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Or nothing but presents, sunshine and shopping today? I choose that option.
