Been a busy first quarter for me and haven’t devoted as much time to my blog. That will change as things are slowing down and I’ll be taking a vacation soon.
Just a friendly reminderly reminder to not let work burn you out. Use that time off!
My company is very much Microsoft oriented. Given that we have Edge installed as the default, with options to add others. I must admit I do like Edge. Vertical tabs is fantastic, I find it’s sync more reliable than Firefox’s, comparable to Safari’s.
Went on a coffee roastery tour today. The most interesting tidbit is that coffee roasters extract caffeine when making decaf beans and that is used in things like energy drinks or other items where there’s no natural caffeine. ☕️
I don’t know why but I always get grossed out washing the dog bowls.
The Bookseller of Florence
Finished reading📚: Bookseller of Florence: The Story of the Manuscripts That Illuminated the Renaissance by Ross King
A fasicnating book about one man in ancient Italy who ushered in an era of literacy and knowledge. Also discusses the creation of the printing press as it overlaps Vespasiano’s life.
The Holdovers, 2023 - ★★★★
A wonderful reminder that you never know what others are going through. Paul G is exquisite in this role too.
Dredd, 2012 - ★★★½
It’s still got some great action scenes. It’s basically The Raid in a dystopian future.
