Changed my coffee habits:

1) No coffee in the afternoon. I can fall asleep immediately after coffee at 10pm but indeed the quality of my sleep has improved and I’m saving money.

2) Keep instant at the office instead of visiting the convenience store multiple times per day. Also saving me money.

So I’ve cut out the Starbucks, when do I become a millionaire as promised?

@FlockOfCats @stopthatgirl7 @roque I am also intrigued. Is my career failing because I eat eggs after 11? Why was I not told?

“Foreigners don’t sort their garbage” is the “They’re eating the cats, they’re eating the dogs” of Japan. And people believe it.

A method for painting trees I picked up from YouTube.

I still have a lot to learn.

Below: Cuba in 2025 Vs USA in 2060.

@piepants @Dana I had never considered a Steam Deck until yesterday. Now it seems to be the best option for my itinerant lifestyle

@Dana Same. What a slap in the face to foreigners in Japan.

Was looking forward to it a great deal, but a ¥20,000 tax to play in my native language is a deal breaker.

What a mess.

Leatherman vs Victorinox, which is the tool of choice when keying a Tesla?

@DNA @willofgregor I bought a refurbished Thinkpad, but over the budget of the one you chose. I’ve been looking at refurbished Let’s Note laptops recently too. The low end ones you can pick up for just over 1man and they’re as light as a feather. Perfect for on the move.

Humans evolved to use a base 10 counting system probably due to the fact we have 10 fingers, while computers use a binary system.

This is because your computer has just one finger.

It's a middle finger, and your computer hides it behind every single error message it displays.

After moving out from home my daughter quickly learned how to prepare nutritious meals for herself!

@Dana So many changes in her life recently, most definitely exciting for us all.

Guys, I’ve been sitting on this for a while as I continue to process it … my eldest daughter is getting married!

As an older gamer “50 Games You Must Play Before You Die” videos are a LOT more pressure than I need …. #Gaming

Wait. If a Microsoft outage takes down DuckDuckGo, why am I using DuckDuckGo?

@jezebelkat @jamesrg @glen_malley @Dana One of my favourite pastimes is watching people turn themselves into pretzels to touch their Apple watches to the card readers. Comedy gold.

I wonder how long until the railway companies bend to the will of the watch people and redesign their gates? I'm hoping never (or until I get a smart watch, whichever comes first!)

Look at these mad lads loving every minute of their day. #lego #lifegoals

お掃除. Trust Japan to have a holiday tradition that involves more fucking work. #ResistBigSōji
