I officially lost my Apple Pencil Pro. This 200 CAN$ doesn’t support Find My??? WTF. This is the second time I’m losing an Apple Pencil. The first time was the original one.
Started working on my next YouTube video. I consider myself not very good at this. It takes way too much of my time to create a single one, but I sometimes want to share things I otherwise couldn’t in written blog posts. One of the things I should do for each video is write a script. I don’t. I never did. I’m a “go with the flow” type of guy when I record. I don’t feel at ease when reading something in front of the camera (and I don’t have the right desk setup for that).
It’s rather impressive how slowly things are turning for the worse in the Middle East. It won’t end well. And it will last much longer than originally claimed. I hope this will be all the nails required for his coffin.
What is happening in Singapore? I get major spikes in visitors from this country from time to time. Both Plausible and Tinylytics are reporting the same behaviour. 🤔

I would pay to have a widget that shows an up-to-date view of Claude’s credit usage.
It seems a big one is coming… the first biggy of 2026.
Out of curiosity, yesterday I asked ChatGPT what the latest firmware release was for my Nikon Z f camera: 3.0 (it was at 1.21)! I applied the 110 mb binary update right on time for my upcoming trip. Yes, I know, my camera needs a little cleanup, too.
Another update to my blog: the blog post categories are no longer listed on the main page header. Categories are shown on each blog post. I think that’s enough. Categories are available in the Archive page. This makes the home page less busy.
