Reading Time: 2 minutes Before the pandemic, when life was normal, I would go to three or four events per week organised via websites. These days, on meetup.com things are organised every two weeks, and for just 15 people at a time. This means that if you’re not first to sign up you’re on a waiting list and you could…
Reading Time: 3 minutes I was born in the 80s and as I grew up so did the computer industry, the digital industry and more. As watches came out with new features I would desire the latest watch with the latest features, and when a newer watch would come out I would desire the newer, innovative watch. Eventually I lost…
Reading Time: < 1 minute As I was experimenting with a Pi zero 2W I came across [Paperless NG](https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-paperless/) which is a simple to install app that allows you to catalogue paperwork automatically on a local machine rather than in the Tech Giant Clouds like Google, Amazon, Apple et al. It didn’t like being installed on the Pi Zero so…
Reading Time: 4 minutes Over a year ago I sold my petrol scooter because the service was expected to cost more than five hundred Swiss Francs. As a result of this I was without a scooter for a year or two. In that time I missed the convenience of having a small vehicle to take me from A to…
Reading Time: 2 minutes It is possible to walk from Nyon to Gland and back in a single day, and to play Ingress in Gland, before meeting a meetup group to walk back to Nyon from Gland, via the Toblerone. The distance I walked was twenty eight kilometres but this is partially due to spending an hour in Gland, after…
Reading Time: < 1 minute Today I walked for six hours and covered 28 kilometres. I will write more tomorrow. Now I will recover.
Reading Time: 2 minutes There is a good chance that tomorrow I will go for a walk along the Toblerones from Prangins to the lake side and on to Nyon. For this walk I have the luxury that I can walk to the starting point before doing the group walk. The issue is that the walk to the starting…
Reading Time: 2 minutes My walks are more often than not circular. I walk in a clearly defined loop across several villages before heading home. On weekends, and days such as yesterday my habit of walking in loops is scuppered by the habit of normal people to walk with dogs. I wouldn’t mind so much, if they kept their…
Reading Time: 2 minutes Yesterday I was already out when I noticed that I forgot to restart the audiobookshelf instance on my server before the run. I could either go home, start the server, and run, or I could just go for my run and use the normal app instead. By normal app I mean using Audible’s app rather…
Reading Time: 2 minutes In 2007 I bought a copy of [SuperDuper](https://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html) that I used to backup my laptops for a while. I bought the licence for fourteen GBP in 2007 and it is still valid to this day. That’s less than a GBP per year of use. The tool is simple. It allows you to backup your mac’s…
