Switching to the Amaroq Mastodon iOS client. Looks like Tootdon has shut down.

New post up about Jony Ive’s departure from Apple. Two posts in one month has to be a record!

Wow, 🤯 Season 2 of “Dark” is everything you could want in a time travel show and more. Makes “Back to the Future” seem childish in comparison.

If you’ve been waiting over a year for the next installment in “The darkest timeline” then you’re in luck: part four is now up. To be honest, I jumpstarted the story’s progress by repurposing a piece I’d already written, so not sure if I have it in me to finish it.

New post out! Also switched from a serif to a sans serif font. It looks great and is more readable on low-res screens. I use the OS system font instead of the Google Font APIs for an even faster load time. 😎

Inaugurating the new ZBook G5 I got at work by throwing some heavy After Effects rendering at it.

On the roadmap for wordbit.com: apex and www domain support, enforced https, dark mode support, and a new post of course.

Wow... Adobe Acrobat has a "Find and Replace" function, but not a "Find and Replace ALL" function. Are you seriously going to make me mash that "Replace Next" button a hundred times, Adobe? 😩

First run in my new Nike Zoom Pegasus 35 shoes today. Comfy, smooth ride and a very nice upgrade to my Saucony Cohesion trail runners.

Oh man, 2019 is whizzing by and I haven't updated my blog in a while. What to write about?

The hype was real - the new God of War is one of the best PS4 games ever made.

Fun fact: There is no user manual for Windows 10.

Got a post out about my first time trying VR. Hope to keep it up. I was thinking about another chapter of my neglected short story.

Belted out by four-year old this morning after I wake her with a gentle "time to get up my sweet angel": I'M NOT AN ANGEL, I'M A FAIRY!!!

Brandon Sanderson must be God's gift to bookish geeks. He's kicking off another series with the release of Skyward today. I still have to read Oathbringer (hopefully soon). I'm catching up on a classic and am reading To Kill a Mockingbird right now.

After a six-month hiatus, finally ready to publish a blog post tonight.

Listening to Giorgio Moroder's Neverending Story soundtrack and am transported back to watching the movie at school when I was eight. The whole class was literally in tears when Atreyu's horse, Artax, dies in the Swamp of Sadness.

After reeling from the sticker shock of yesterday's new iPhone announcements, I think I'm going to try squeeze five years of use out of my iPhone 6S. After a battery replacement and iOS 12's speed optimizations, it should be as good as new.

I've made it halfway through Dostoevsky's nasty final novel, so I may as well try to finish it.

It's over 30 degrees outside. Our site manager just bought the whole company ice cream. Nice guy... mad respect.
