Porky

The name George Peckham probably means nothing to you. I would wager that almost nobody who reads this knows the person I am referring to, yet within his industry, he is as famous as you can get.

Mowing Man

3 months ago, for day 53 by Yorick Phoenix 🏆

It's spring! Well, maybe not where you live, but here - in northern California - the trees are full of blossom and I have my first rose in the garden. Unlike previous years I didn't prune my roses this time. I thought about it, but by the time I got...

Diagnosis-smosis

3 months ago, for day 51 by Leonie Jonk 💘

Sometimes I wish I had some sort of diagnosis. Some kind of tangible thing that could help me grasp why things are so hard. I thought the ADHD diagnosis brought the last missing piece, but even with it, I struggle. I often find myself feeling understood when I read stories...

Yellow Lined Mouse Mat

3 months ago, for day 50 by Yorick Phoenix 🏆

I have used a yellow lined writing pad as a mouse mat for at least the last seven years. This doubles as somewhere to make random notes as I work on stuff. My Apple Magic Mouse started going wonky the other day. The tracking was jumping all over the place,...

Fly vs Drive

If I travel to LA for the day (again) would Greta approve? Would I even care?

Travel (planning) Is Awful

3 months ago, for day 47 by Yorick Phoenix 🏆

OK, travel isn’t actually awful. Travel can be exciting and fun. Travel planning on the other hand is awful. Long ago we had travel agents. You would call them up and they would arrange your flights, cars, and hotels. They were experts at all of this stuff. Then we got...

Fear

There is nothing to fear except fear itself.         — Franklin D. Roosevelt. Today I took a tour of the disused Nike 88 Nuclear Missile Site on the San Franciso headlands. Apparently it is the only place in the US where you can visit a nuclear missile silo. Thankfully...

Keyboard Re-warrioring

3 months ago, for day 45 by Yorick Phoenix 🏆

I received my new keyboard today. The one pictured in yesterdays post. This time the spacing is good, the main keyboard has exactly the same as an Apple Extended Keyboard and the numeric keypad likewise. The keyboard itself is slightly narrower because some space between the main keyboard, home keys,...

Keyboard Warrior

3 months ago, for day 44 by Yorick Phoenix 🏆

Two decades of muscle memory means I'm back to typing on my MacBook instead of my iPad. I gave up on my new Logitech K780 multi-device wireless keyboard. The functionality of being able to use it for my MacBook, my iPad, and my iPhone is great. Unfortunately, it is a...

New Keyboard

3 months ago, for day 42 by Yorick Phoenix 🏆

I new keyboard arrived today. Not sure if I’m going to keep it or not. We’ll see. It’s the Logitech K780 that I think @chris mentioned in one of his posts. I generally use an original wired extended Apple Keyboard. It has the same key travel as the original MacBook...
