Thinking of starting a #cooking blog - nothing too fancy, not trying to quit my dayjob or anything, just want to share some of my favorite recipes for fun
Is #wordpress still the best tool for this sort of job?
Finally got the pitch adjustment mechanism working for my Dobsonian Fine aiming system! My goal is to have it sit entirely on the existing Dobsonian mount so that I can still use it as normal, but use the system to achieve much more precise aiming than the usual "tap it until it moves" method of precision aiming with dobs 😅
There's something just absurdly zen about organizing my #audiobook collection
I never even really sort/filter my library by genre, but I love knowing that all my books are in their correct niches
Just got back from the podiatrist - apparently my persistent ankle pain is caused by a stress fracture from #running and am now in a boot with orders to keep weight bearing to an absolute minimum 😬 So no #cycling #running, or even walking without crutches
This with a baby due literally any day now as well - not idea to say the least
FINALLY some sunny weather to ride in
Was able to get out on some gravel for the first time and actually take a decent length ride without feeling the need to rush back to drain the water out of my shoes
Podiatrist appointment coming up this Friday, hopefully she can provide a path to recovery for this ankle problem so that I can get #running again!
Now that I've got a bike, Triathlon training is calling my name..
Trying to figure out a good use case for the action button on my #iphone
I currently just have it open my audiobook app, but that feels like such a waste.. I’ve got a #homeassistant server, so the #homeautomation usecases are endless..
What I really wish was that there was a non-hacky way to support different types of inputs (single press, double click, long press, etc).
Any ideas?
In an effort to spend less time in the rage cage I've been trying to replace my morning/nighttime news/social media scrolling with reading magazines on Apple News+ and it's honestly been a revelation.
The quality of writing is infinitely better than news and random social media posts, and you can pick and choose only the topics that actually interest you
I still do read the news and browse social media (otherwise I wouldn't be typing this lol), but I try to save that for when I've woken up a bit and I try to not refresh my news feed too often these days
