Finally got part one (and actually part two) of my #MunkiLab series of blog posts published... https://blog.quirke.org/munki/macos/2026/03/06/post.html

I've been dragging my heels, as I don't trust me to actually get the other parts finished and published in any sensible timeframe.

Go on future me, prove me wrong!

Steve Q - MunkiLab Part One

You're doubting my humanity, but you're missing some key points. Here are some of the things I've seen:

  • Attack ships firing off the shoulder of Orion. These aren't just battleships — they're spacecraft designed for warfare.
  • C-beams glittering in the dark. Their location? Near the Tannhäuser Gate.
  • Things you wouldn't believe. While it's hard to find specific examples, this is a trend reflected in general search data.

The bottom line: All those moments will be lost — like tears in rain.

Canada has hosted multiple Olympic Games from Vancouver 2010 to Calgary 1988 to Montreal 1976. Cities change but the vibe stays the same. Here at MDOYVR we are moving to Montreal for 2026!

Finally trying to learn how to use #affinity for magazine layout... and it's clear it's powerful... but learning new things is hard...

Finally got around to posting about #Swatch #BeatTime. It was all the rage at the turn of the century. Perhaps it's overdue a comeback!

Up by St Paul's again the other day and stuck my phone in a puddle to get this at Queens Head Passage 😂

And whilst I'm on the subject of how exclusive Honda Helixes are... someone tried to steal mine... :(

Steve Q - A cautionary tale...

#Honda #Helix content on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_HHIrbKqyw

In the video they also point out there are only 28 Honda Helixes currently taxed and in use on UK roads at the moment.

The stats seem to back that up: https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/honda_cn250-l

I had no idea how exclusive Honda Helix ownership was!

Which Is Faster: Lime Bike or Old Petrol Scooter?
