Diary - May 01 to May 07 2021

Sat May 01 2021

Sleep 0700 to 1245.

  • Steam Golden Week Sale is themed around games from Japan, which are predominantly Windows games and there is no way to filter by platform. And as I browse these games so many look really bad.
  • There was a worrying part when my Xfinity status page said they were charging my for overage. But at the start of the next month it says I used up my complimentary overage month.

Sun May 02 2021

Sleep 0500 to 1315. (8-1/4 hours)

  • 50th birthday.
  • Went for ice cream (Cold Stone) with Corina and CJr. CSr met us at my place and he got me KFC.

Mon May 03 2021

Sleep 0615 to 1215. (6 hours)

  • Late night Xfinity outage. Guess I can stop working now. ETA fix by 04:24.

Tue May 04 2021

Sleep 0330 to 1130. (8 hours)

  • I'd like to install a personal database to keep track of stuff. Why not Oracle XE and APEX? But on macOS that would require VirtualBox (or I guess VMWare/Parallels). And at that point that's a lot of trouble when I could buy a macOS solution.

Wed May 05 2021

Sleep 0430 to 1030. (6 hours).

  • People complaining about the updated Apple Podcasts app automatically following then downloading a bunch of shows. You can turn off automatc download for followed shows in app settings (iOS).

Thu May 06 2021

Sleep 0130 to 0230, 0730 to 1130. (5 hours)

  • Started reading a real book, The Path Between the Seas. Besides GURPS WWII books I don't remember the last book I read.

Fri May 07 2021

Sleep 0400 to 1200. 1 hour nap. (9 hours)

  • No work today. I'll try to catch up tomorrow or Sunday.
