Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31st July 2026.

31st July, 2026.

Right … it’s now Friday … !

Which technical means we can make assorted ‘Yay’ noise, and talk about hairdos!

If we’re in the mood to talk about haircuts, of course.

You can tell I’m in one of those moods, can’t you … ?

~≈💈≈~

Going totally off the subject of haircuts?

I’ve finished yet another review: for the fourth episode of For All Mankind, series five.

I hope that gets a few Likes!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31st July 2025.

31st July, 2025.

Right … it’s officially Thursday.

And … ?

Well, theoretically, I have a day off.

At least … a day where I’ve nothing planned.

Bar watching this week’s Star Trek.

“A Space Adventure Hour” looks like it could be interesting … 

~≈🖖≈~

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31st July, 2023.

31st July, 2023.

Yes: it’s officially official.

It’s Monday.

And … ?

Frankly, I’m off to my weight management class.

Hopefully?

I’ll’ve lost a few pounds!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31st July, 2022.

31st July, 2022.

Yes: it’s Sunday morning.

And … ?   Having looked out of my window,  I can tell Brentwood’s looking overcast.

Will I be putting money on much needed rain?

Nope!

Going by the BBC’s weather prediction for the area, it’s going to be muggy, overcasting … and distinctly non-rainy.

That’s a shame: we could do with it.

~≈Û≈~

Oh, I’ve had Radio 4 on.   And, in their Sunday morning religious magazine show?

A pair of talking heads were discussing the protests that take place outside abortion clinics: which was a fascinating listen … that saw the pro-life protestor accusing the clinic support of accusing him of thoughtcrime.

It has to be said: it’s the first time I’ve heard the word used outside 1984.

~≈Û≈~

Oh … before I forget … ?

Yes: I’ve reviewed another episode of Star Trek Picard.

Feel free to leave me a comment!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31-7-2021: Fatboy

31st July, 2021.

Hmmm … 

I’ve got to admit, I’ve recently update my iMac, recently: from 11.4 to 11.5.

And … ?

Wasn’t expecting to be notified of another update, quite so soon.

After all, the update — 11.5, to 11.5.1 — comes some five days after the 11.5 update.

I got notified right in the middle of doing some Blu-ray ripping: which was nice timing.

With that done … ?

The update is something I plan to do, today.

After all, Apple’s own page about the update tells it will allow an ‘application may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.’

In other words, and from what I’ve understood?   At quite a deep level of the operating system, one that could do a look of damage.

Apple also says it ‘is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited.’

That sounds quite serious … 

~≈🖥≈~

I’ll happily admit, I like a movie, now and again.

Although I’ve not watched one, since seeing In Fabric, a while ago.

But I do try an keep an eye on the movie news.

I’m aware, for example, that many films will receive a hybrid release: in other words, a realise on both the big screen, and on Video On Demand services.

Something a few films have been doing: as a result of Covid.

One film that’s being aired this way?   Is the recent Marvel movie, Black Widow.

Something its star, Scarlet Johansson, isn’t happy about.

So she’s suing the relevant streaming company, Disney, for loss of earnings.

Quite which way that will go, I don’t know.

But can’t help think it will have implications.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31-7-2019: Fatboy Slim

31st July, 2019.

I have to confess … I had an interview, yesterday.

Which you’ll possibly already know.

It … 

Hmmm … 

You know, I couldn’t tell you if it went well, or badly.

I should hear, by next week.

Hmmm … 

~≈†≈~

You’ve personally worked out I’m something of an Apple fan.

I’ve never exactly hidden that.

So I noticed the news that both they, and Samsung, have seen profits fall.

I’m no economics expert, I’m really not.

But can’t help but think Apple hasn’t done anything innovative since the iPhone, or the original AppleTV.

Here’s hoping.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31st July, 2018

31st July, 2018.

Yes: I’ve officially forgot to tape last night’s I’m Sorry, I Haven’t a Clue.

Frankly?

I’m grateful for the BBC’s catch up services: it means I can listen to the episode, while I write.

But ALSO … that I have a tough job trying not to laugh, whilst typing.

Always difficult, that.

At ANY rate … ?

I’m planning to set the timer for Sunday’s repeat.

I’d like to complete the set.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 31-7-2016

Oh, now that’s TWICE, this week!

I’ve suffer from IBS, so you know: which isn’t serious.

But CAN be extremely painful.   To the point of incapacitation.

It hit, again, last night: whilst I was at work.

To the point where I got sent home: where I spent most of the evening writhing in agony or vomiting.

I was in pain: and grateful.   Although it does mean I lose money.

Understandably, the boss wasn’t happy about it.

I can’t say I blame him.

Would you be?

On a personal level, the only good to come of it?

Is I had a bit of good news, when I got home.

I’ll keep that under my hat, for now: but it was news that told me the world’s got it’s upsides.
