I replaced the blades on the mower. I think its fair to say that the old ones were past their best. 😳

@benpocalypse My thoughts exactly, then I looked. 🫣

@TerryHancock I’m sure they were, many years ago. 😂

Having my 1:1 with my boss, both on camera and my cat throws up in the background.

Him: Did your cat just throw up.

Me: Yes. Yes, she did. I was hoping you didn't see that. 😂

Him: You wanna end early and go clean than up.

Me: Nah, it's good. Looks like one of the dogs is eating it anyway. 🤮

Any users here? I've just started testing it to see if it's better than Apple notes. I've created a couple notes and tagged them, but the tags aren't showing on the sidebar.

What am I doing wrong? This isn't a great first impression…

@asier Just by clicking on the create button at the top. Then added tags like “#blogging” (without quotes). But nothing. Tried restarting the app, still nada.

@ricmac Yup:

@ricmac I’ve tried that, still nothing. The “/“ is supported as that’s a sub-tag.

@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

Figured it out. It seems that “" isn't supported somehow? If I change it to or it works, Bear just doesn't like the “blogging" tag.

kev,
@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

@ricmac Haha that was the first thing I tried. It seems that the tag I was using (blogging) just won’t work. All other tags do 🤷‍♂️

@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

@gavinanderegg It does, but for some reason is doesn’t appear in the sidebar.

kev,
@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

@gavinanderegg It’s a minor thing in the grand scheme of things. Other tags work fine, so it’s all good. I’ll just use “blog” instead of “blogging” 🤷‍♂️

So over the last couple weeks I’ve been getting back into weight training and more intense cardio in my little home gym.

I nearly skipped tonight because I’m so tired from work, glad I didn't now those endorphins have kicked in.

@basil You don’t get that little pick me up after exercise?

@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

@basil Ah man, that’s shit. I usually feel really good after exercise for around an hour, then I get tired and hungry haha.

@outofcontrol Evening, after the kids are in bed.

kev, to DuckDuckGo
@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

So it seems that #DuckDuckGo was down for the last few hours because of a #Bing outage. That's very annoying; DDG should probably get out from under Microsoft's coat tails...

@byjp Yeah, you’re probably right. Which is really, really sad.

So yesterday I published a post about logging which watches I wear. It's been a fun little coding challenge for me, and I'm proud of myself. But there's always someone who has to piss on your parade...

Contemplating if I should splash out on a gym membership again. All my workouts are at home with free weights and I have great results… I was turned off by the gym a few years back, mainly because it felt like it was full of angry people smashing weights.

@kev@fosstodon.org avatar

@vincentritter I’m considering adding and EZ bar and a preacher bench, but not just yet. I’m only just getting back into lifting.

Everyone knows I'm a watch geek, but I've now taken it one step further and added a watch wearing log to this site.

@brejoc Exactly. I’m planning to do some stats over time.
