After we finished furnishing the flat, we decided to turn our attention to the garden. Since the garden has fill material from previous owners, we went with raised beds. We eventually settled on these ones — the price was reasonable. The construction, as it turned out later, le...
If you've seen The Dark Knight, you know what I'm talking about. The Tumbler. An iconic vehicle. The set is missing a few details though — no integrated motorcycle, no drive system. What a shame they didn't throw in servos and motors. A Tumbler that actually drives would be...
I needed to factory reset a phone, and imagine my surprise when I entered the Apple ID password and it didn't work. I tried password recovery and was greeted with a wonderful thing — a security delay, or however you'd translate it.

I wanted to learn something new, something more spontaneous, so I signed up for the Street Photography course run by Nikon School, taught by the excellent Lucka Mojžíšová. Lucka managed to borrow the best Nikon had to offer — the Z8 mirrorless. I was shooting on a fixed 35mm f/1...

Something unfortunate happened — my hub (VersaQ) stopped working. No Power Delivery, no USB, no HDMI... just nothing. The problem is in the electronics. I started thinking about how to get out of this. I'd been considering a monitor anyway, because FullHD is fine but it's...
What were the key moments this year?
OS: Face ID is something else... I want Touch ID back!
TV: Samsung The Frame — thin bezel and a great picture.
Floor: Oiled parquet — the difference is indescribable.
IoT: Netatmo. Smoke detection, CO₂, heating control, weather st...
