Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22nd September 2023.

22nd September, 2023.


Right … 

I’m sorry if this is late … 

But … ?

I updated iMovie, this morning … and then had to role it back with Time Machine.

I don’t know what Apple’s done — bar optimising it for Apple Silicon machines — but the results, sound wise?

Wasn’t something I found impressive.   (You’ll spot it in today’s intro.)

~≈⏰≈~

I’m thankful I know something.

That we have a date: for when those of us on Universal Credit receive the next Cost of Living payment.

Some point between 31st October and 19th November, this year.

The sooner the better, I think.

At any rate … ?

In a news piece, today, The Russell Trust — the charity that runs many food banks in the UK — makes a good point.

Basically?

Those cost of living payments really don’t last.

They’re not telling me anything I — and many others — don’t already know.

I can only hope someone in government’s listening to that.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22nd September, 2019

22nd September, 2019 Teaser.


I think I’m right in today’s intro: I’m going to need to have words with my family.

Christmas is looming: and I’m still — still — mulling over a family present.

I’m thinking a Chromecast — or Roku/Firestick — would be an idea: as my family could stream stuff to them from assorted phones and tablets.

Oh, and cheap.

Something like a laptop?   And some recent Android media streamers?

Are a touch more expensive, and can’t — from what I can see — be streamed to, from a phone or tablet without a lot of faffing about.

But can be set up with individual user accounts: oh, and parental controls.

Something my youngest sister, Ruth would appreciate: when setting up an account for Jude, my eight year old nephew.

It’s … 

Well, yes: you can see why I’m thinking talking is a good idea … 

But if you have any thoughts, yourself … ?

Feel free to mention them … !
