Recently I built an API as a personal project in NextJS, it's good to code again. Wrote a blog post about it as well.

Before work and during my lunch break, I took my #RicohGRIII for a walk. #Ricoh #Photography

On Sunday, 26th October 2025, I turned on the heating for the first time this year.
Was hoping to make it to 1st November, but I failed 😭

New from me: Leica made an M camera without a rangefinder. I analyzed why they might have done this, and did some trigonometry.

Crucially though, the government shutdown has prevented the FCC from certifying it for sale in the U.S., so a launch date here is uncertain.

I’ve been looking at film cameras recently, maybe I need to check out Lomography?

Tom Scott's newsletter had this link to a BBC article about people who are stuck using old Windows machines, it's an interesting read!

Explored history in Bath. Also had the best rotisserie chicken sandwich in my life. Photos taken on a Ricoh GR III X. #Photography #Ricoh #RicohGRIII

Visited Borough Market in London on Friday to have some street food. Took some photos on my Ricoh GR III X. Food was great!

I really can’t wait to see more of ‘The misadventures of Sirfetch’d & Pichu’ - could be great!

Started the new season of #TheBear tonight. Really enjoying it. The cinematography is top notch as always.

Might just start saying “Heard.” every so often.

I test drove a Kia EV3 today, and the main takeaway I got from it is that cars have really advanced not just in terms of moving to electric motors, but the interiors have evolved hugely.

The EV3 is like a spaceship in comparison to my Vauxhall Viva, and has much more room.

Oh no.
A screenshot from the weather application, Mercury. The screenshot shows the daily forecast for the upcoming week. The temperature starts at 23 degrees and ends at 32. It’s going to be very, very warm.

Personal highlights of #Steam Next Fest for me so far are Baby Steps and Mina the Hollower.

I thought the Xbox showcase was ok! No news on Perfect Dark or Fable was slightly disappointing. Cool to see a brief glimpse of the Persona 4 remake.
