The trailer for Echo looks pretty intriguing - it’s certainly looking a lot more violent than I expected from a Disney+ MCU show. Perhaps going in a completely different direction, tonally, is what’s needed at this point.

I’m not a fan of the new warhammer.com website, for many reasons, but my 2 biggest irritations are that 1) it makes me scroll 2 full viewports on my 2400x1600 laptop screen before getting to the products it wants me to buy, and 2) a lot of the navigation is unclear and gets in the way.
Some pretty intense rain seems to have cut the trick-or-treating short this evening, so we’re left with an abundance of sweets left over that we didn’t get to hand out.
Oh no. What a shame 😏

Donuts and coffee @ Dough & Co. The single is for now, the box of 3 to take home 🍩☕️
Developer folks - have you implemented anything which helps you assess the environmental impact of the applications/services you develop and run? If so, what did you use, and how?
Green software is a topic coming up at work more and more recently, so I’d like to start building my knowledge.
Me: I have too many paints.
Also me: buys an entire paint range in one go.
I miss the people I used to follow on Twitter. I feel like I don’t see enough of them on other platforms. In part it’s because those who have moved on are now spread out across multiple platforms, while others somehow haven’t given up on Twitter yet.
I really wanted some donuts 🍩
Good job there’s not a book I’d really like to preorder.
Oh…
Flu + Covid vaccinated for another season 🙌🏻 Had to go out in a red weather warning to get it, but needs must. Now to spend the rest of the day building models.
So Ahsoka series 1 was pretty much exactly the length of time needed to build 20 Dark Elf Warriors with spears. Still to build:
- 10 Warriors w/ repeater crossbows
- 10 Black Ark Corsairs
- 10 Black Guard
- Sorceress
- Assassin
- Lord on Black Dragon
I should use the next couple of days to finish off my Cities of Sigmar project, but instead I’m going to spend the day building Warhammer Dark Elves and either watching the LOTR trilogy, or catching up on some shows I’ve missed.
I’ve spent the last 2 (3?) hours attempting to clear out my office space, and even though I’ve recycled/thrown out a lot of stuff, it still feels somewhat like rearranging deckchairs on the Titanic…
I had a fairly successful start to some time off; a long lie-in (9:30! unheard of!), a couple of hours relaxing, and then installed a new wall-mounted monitor arm, freeing up a bunch of space on my tiny desk.
🤞🏻I can keep momentum going and get some other projects finished off.
I should use bluesky more. And Mastodon, for that matter. Threads kind of swept me along in a constant stream of interactions, and I basically forgot to login to most other places.
Holy shit Barbie was like, really, really good
Off to see Barbie today, dressed head to toe in black. Not as some sort of statement you see, that’s just my wardrobe ☠️
Finally watched Red Dwarf series 9, and it was… a thing? Found it a very strange show to watch. Despite following a lot of the formula, it didn’t feel like Red Dwarf, but more like a nostalgic tribute to it. Gets a bonus point for all the Blade Runner references though
