Suica cards in Japan have always been useful. Having one in your phone makes them even easier to use!

Once the sun has set on #MaunaKea we get ”lilac hour”. Here are the Canada–France–Hawaii and Gemini North telescopes ethereal as night falls.

I was cutting things fine getting to Haneda Airport and trusted #flighty on which terminal to go to for my JAL flight from the train. Oops - this is the first time it’s got it wrong! I took the free bus between terminals and still got there on time.

About the banner in my profile - I'm originally from Scotland, but not the picture postcard part. I was back there in the summer and wanted to take a picture that was "obviously Scotland". I think I succeeded. Your thoughts?

Our new TV/receiver/AppleTV combination supports all the modern interconnected-ness magic of #CEC over #HDMI so much that things "just work" - it's great.
So it's time to retire our favourite previous of crucial AV equipment - the Harmony One unifying remote control. We've had it for a long time (>13 years??) and it's provided great service.

After passing on a 2nd hand Acura ZDX EV at the weekend, I stopped by our local #lucid_motors showroom to test drive the new #LucidGravity.
What a difference! The ride is"definitely not an SUV" and it's hard to overstate how much nicer of a vehicle Lucid have made compared with the re-badged GM offering from Acura. New sticker price of the Gravity is about 33% more than the ZDX when new, but you get very much more than a 33% better vehicle with roughly double the maximum cargo volume!
(To actually sell the ZDX, Acura had to offer steep discounts, typically around $20k).
Not sure I'm in the market for a ~$100k new EV, but definitely intersted in a 2nd hand one in a couple of years.

@broadwaybabyto I love my #apple devices (typing on one now), but #timcook has destroyed any potential personal legacy in the last year.

Only a couple of empty ports now that I’ve set up my Mac mini with the M2 Pro. There are 3 monitors and 2 USB hubs for all my desktop peripherals + Ethernet.
That’s the hardware done - still a lot of software to configure.

I'm deep into rolling forward my long-term #Django project from the 3.2 LTS. The target is to get all the way to 4.2.9 LTS before next weekend.
I've already successfully worked through several utility dependency problems.
Now for the biggie: moving from #pytz to #zoneinfo: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/releases/4.0/
Currently, this looks rather daunting...

Listening to the Craig Charles Funk & Soul show (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/b0072ky7) and I hear Bill Nighy trailing that he'll be sitting in for Iggy Pop on #bbc6music. And whose picture pops into my head? Yes, Bill Nye!
