The forty millimeter, aluminum, silver Apple Watch with a Milanese loop does look very good in the pictures. Maybe it might look just as good in my wrist?

Two weeks ago I was away on a work trip and I decided to try to capture footage to potentially make a vlog out of. Here’s some lessons I learned.

So no, there won’t be a finished vlog this time but is was fun to try.

Tonight I started playing ”Link’s Awakening” on the Switch. This is one of the games that I didn’t play as a kid, so I have zero nostalgia for it. I think that was why I had a hard time getting into it when I played it in Virtual Console on the 3DS.

It seems like the Switch version will hook me more, but it does to me like a 3DS game than a Switch game. I guess this one will shine more in handheld more than in TV mode.

I need your help finding a self-hosted alternative to iCloud photo sharing

I’m looking for a self-hosted alternative to iCloud photo sharing for private photo sharing with the family, and I need your help finding it.

Here’s what’s great about iCloud sharing:

The main problem is that it is exclusive to the Apple ecosystem. That excludes part of the family. If I’m going to change things up it would also be nice if the new solution was hosted on a server controlled by me.

So, a self-hosted alternative to iCloud photo sharing, with apps for viewing on both iOS and Android. Any recommendations are much appreciated.

Gboard and swiping takes some getting used to but I do think that it’ll be the most efficient way of writing on the iPad mini with the Apple Pencil.

I’m testing out a darker theme on my blog. The plan is to use it to eventually have a dark and a light mode.
