    1) Some more nice heavy rain today. Still waiting on some thunder and lightning though!
    2) Made chilli, then portioned it out and put it all in the freezer for easy meals over the next couple of weeks
    3) Got some Kraken black cherry and vanilla today and it is LOVELY

    I forgot to post this yesterday evening so this for yesterday really:

    1) making coffee in my aeropress
    2) I got **all** the washing done
    3) Bought Cities: Skylines and played for a couple of hours and had fun. It was in the Stram sale so I feel that even if I don’t pick it up again I’ve had had fun and won’t feel guilty about wasting my money

  • Been fancying playing for a little while. Launched a rocket in Factorio so thought I'd take a break, and I've been looking for something similar but different.

    Turns out it's in the Steam Summer Sale right now - yay!

    I install it, run it, it immediately crashes. Try the usual stuff, verify game files, restart laptop, still crashes.

    Google a bit, and find this oddly specific fix: uninstall Citrix Workspace. Flippin' heck I actually still have that installed on my laptop from when we started working from home in 2020. Uninstalled that, Cities: Skylines runs!

    I've never seen such a specific answer like that to a problem and have it actually be the exact thing that fixes it for me. I'm going to have to have a cup of tea and sit down

  • So, from today I won't be wasting time on Reddit on my phone anymore. That's good I guess?

    I already had it stripped right down to just a few little subreddits that I liked to visit, and I think I managed to find somewhere either here on Mastodon or on Discord that will do the same thing.

    Haven't found anywhere that likes to talk about more minimalist bullet journaling yet though. I'm sure there'll be somewhere!
