2026 – Week 5

Monday: Lazed in the pool. Watched Ford Vs’ Ferrari, ate a bunch of chicken wings.

Tuesday: Quiet day, while Hannah worked from the dining table.

Wednesday: Went to an optometrists and bought the glasses I’ve been thinking about all this time. Called Devondale to chat to them about how all the milk from a particular batch smells off.

Thursday: chatting to Devondale, confirming all the details, filing issue with Woolworths about the milk. Filing  health aletr with Qld government. Thursday night I reinstalled macOS on my workstation, to try to solve all the problems I’ve been having.

I’m not sure it’s doing that. What I’m hoping to fix is desktop wallpaper being reset, and displays not being found on wake from sleep. Also, the clusterfuck of instability I’ve been experiencing.

Friday: testing the update, it’s been feeling brittle. I updated SwitchResX, and removed Lunar from the mix. I ordered a stupidly expensive $300 displayport hotplug maintainer to0 see if it will deal with the slow wakeup of the main display. Also ordered a new UGreen TB to Displayport adapter, in case the Lindy ones I have simply aren’t any good.

Saturday: the new TB to DP adapter arrived. it’s so much more nicely made than the ones I had, I ordered two more. Pretty quiet day. Played video games in the evening.

Sunday: the TB to DP adapter appears to be doing its job. Huzzah!
