Due to my Covid infection, I was only able to publish my Weeknotes for week 49 quite late, so here are just a few more thoughts and things that caught my attention in week 50, 2023:
💶 I published my State of App and Services Subscriptions 2023 and read similar posts from other people with great interest.
🎙 Canion tried MurmurType on Setapp - Transcribe your speech and I plan to take a closer look at the app soon as well.
In continuation of week 48, here are a few thoughts and things that caught my attention in week 49, 2023:
🦠 Yes, I had already feared it, and unfortunately, it happened: My wife’s Covid-19 infection did not pass me by. Therefore, my weeknote is regrettably appearing a little too late “this week.”
🔫 You may not necessarily like the content, but technically, the trailer for GTA VI definitely blew me away.
In continuation to week 47, here are a few thoughts and things that caught my attention in week 48, 2023:
🦠 My wife was plagued at the beginning of the week with severe headaches and especially nausea. The Corona test was negative. However, on Friday it turned out that she did have Corona, for the first time (proven) since the beginning of the pandemic. She is now slowly getting better, but it has really knocked her down.
Adam told me to stay on the path, so I’m trying to motivate myself to get back into the habit of writing down what has interested me throughout the week. So, here comes week 47.
🎮 I finished playing Horizon Forbidden West. It was my first computer game in years, and probably the first AAA title in decades that I actually watched the end credits for. Usually, I start playing and then eventually stop.
Here are a few things that caught my attention in week twenty-six: week.esamecar.net/26
Teaser: The #ACAC is growing, I went to a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and to a Wedding party. Therefore, only a few new #macOS apps, no iOS, no TV, no movies.
Here are a few things that caught my attention in week twenty (teaser: #iOS, #macOS, cycling a small part of the Iron Curtain Trail 🚴♂️🚴): week.esamecar.net/20
What I did in week six, 2023 In continuation to week five, here are the things I was interested in week six, 2023:
🐍 A few weeks ago, I had the top case of my MacBook replaced because the battery was defective. I took the opportunity to completely reinstall the system. Most of it is now up and running, but Python 3 was still missing. Python is a programming language that even I understand to some extent, but the installation is an absolute mess.
What I was interested in during the fifth week of 2023 (teaser: Chagall, LEGO, macOS, iOS, podcasts, tv) In continuation to week four, here are the things I was interested in week five.
📺 I watched the first three episodes of Bad Sisters (2022) and liked the Series so far. I kind of feel sorry for the John Paul actor. The character is such an unbelievable asshole that it must be really hard to portray someone like that.
What I have done in the second week of 2023 (teaser: playdate, macOS apps, podcasts, movie) After all, this is the second time this year that I've managed to write down a bit what has been keeping me busy during the week. 🥳
😔 So, this was my first week at work and thus, unfortunately, again far too little time for things I really enjoy. (I'll have to think about my work situation in great detail at some point).
What I have done in the first week of 2023 (teaser: mastodon, omg.lol, playdate, ankermake) I was motivated by muhh's blog entry to write down what was on my mind in the first week of January. I'm not sure yet if this will become something more regular, but I wanted to start putting something online more often anyway - more on that below.
I've had the last two weeks off. The weather was bad, I had a cold 🤧 and therefore a lot of cycling wasn't an option either (at least that's what I told myself).
