We’ve had a fly in the house for the last 9 days. It’s very annoying. I finally cornered it in the bathroom this morning and got it. 🪰

We had a nice morning making gingerbread houses with friends but now the kids are getting over excited and fighting with each other.

iCloud pricing for the 2TB tier is now £9/month. Shame they don’t do a 1TB one for £5. Do I want to get it and put all my photos in it? I think it’s more useful than Adobe Lightroom and their storage.

Printed and assembled the frame for the e-ink display. The buttons aren’t quite right and I think need a little filing down. Now I need to do the software part. Which means actually deciding what it’s going to do.

Weirdly my router, the Eero (which came with my ISP) blocks the raspbian mirror director. I guess it looks like ads redirecting, but it’s very annoying. Fixed my repo to a specific domain to work around it. However, it reminds me why I was hesitant of it. It’s nice for editing settings via the app, and the ad blocking and things are handy. It’s great for most people but I do think I want to roll my own router at some point.

I see lifeplan is now free. I’ll give it a shot at some point.
