Apparently my apartment is meant to be stinky, so I was told to buy one of these aroma machines. Well my apartment sure does stink now, so it seems to be working …
This study indicates that children are more willing to punish others, if the one being punished is taught a lesson from the punishment. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-020-00975-9
I was working from the Michelberger Hotel, and went down into the basement to use the toilet. Ummm, interesting toilet doors they have here!
Basia and I headed out for a group hike to the Briese swamp area, just out of Berlin. We had an awesome hike through the swamp ๐
My new Corona friendly coworking office.
Visiting the Neues Museum in Berlin with Charlotta ๐ The skull is one of the very earliest preserved homo sapien skulls.
Berlin’s Tiergarten on a beautiful summers day.
Craig and I headed to Prague for the week ๐
Thanks to Brianna for waiting around whilst I launched myself off the Kawarau bridge late last year ๐ I was totally relaxed, even when standing on the edge. But that feeling of freefall puts me into severe panic. I think I need to do this a few hundred more times to get used to the […]
Here is a random brain dump I commented on a post by Clive Murphie on Facebook. I think most peoples fears of the digital world are misplaced. Younger folk are much more sociable than our generations ever were. Their opportunities to create and share art work are improved through the ability to share what they […]
Hanging out with babies in Prague!
Getting frustrated for 30 mins, followed by aggressively storming around the house in a huff for 10 mins. After a short break, I will continue with 10 mins of aggressively bashing my head against something solid, finished off with 15 mins of heavy sighing and stretching my neck whilst staring forlornly at the floor. Originally […]
Here are some hideous photos taken by Andy Noble in 2007. People keep asking what my hair looked like before I chopped it all off, so here you go ๐ … basically, terrible and thin ๐ I should have shaved it all off when I was still teenager. Oh well, retrospect …
We saw these little critters scampering around by the waterside in Prague. It seemed very odd, as they seem to have no fear of anything. It turns out they’re an invasive introduced pest! The local vegan restaurant is providing them with fresh food each day; go figure ๐ At least they provide some entertainment for […]
This is random. I saw the first digital camera I ever bought on amazon.de today. I bought it in 2004, so I’m kinda surprised it’s been for sale at all recently.
Visiting Warsaw with Lynn.
US$74k sim rig setup. I decided to improve on it …
My local chilli shop got fresh chillis in. I bought a big selection of them ๐ I said to the guy at the shop “will this burn my mouth out if I try to eat it on my way home?” and pointed to the least spicy one I bought (can’t remember the name, but it […]
Mo, Jacob, myself and Jenny went on a cycling trip from Brandenburg an der Havel to Potsdam. Lunch consisted on an amazing ice cream sundae ๐
Madhvi and I celebrating after completing the final leg of the Madhvi marathon (12 km).
We start at S Grunewald at 11:00am (look for the mob of hikers standing outside the station), then head straight into the forest. We meander our way through the forest, over Teufelsberg, then head down the hill to the der Havel river, and follow the coast for a bit. Weather permitting, we will stop by […]
Weโre going on a pleasant walk through the beautiful forests around Mรผggelsee. We will stop somewhere for a swim/picnic. The route is in a loop for those wanting to cycle to the start point to avoid public transport. Most of the route will be under tree cover to keep us cool in this crazy heat […]
Berlin summers feel a little like hanging out in Satan’s anus. To make matters worse, ze Germans don’t seem to believe in air conditioning. Thankfully, the gods invented cheap portable air conditioners, so I bought one ready for last summer. The pipe it came with was too short to reach my living room though so […]
James stopped off to visit, so us and Aron went karting together. I came last. I’m slightly bitter about the result lol.
I organised my first post/mid-Coronapocalypse hike after laws were dropped limiting the number of attendees. It was great to get back out in nature again with so many new cool people ๐
We were lucky to be given the opportunity to work from an office provided by some friendly Nepalese tech folk ๐
I was very nervous about changing from primary school to intermediate school at the age of 11. I had a lot of trouble making friends back in those days. For some reason, people often reacted strangely to me. I didn’t know why; I just knew that it happened and it scared me. All the new […]
A fun trip to Gdansk with Lynn ๐
The sweet apartment Lynn and I shared in Gdansk ๐
Dave and I went canoeing on Otago harbour. An awesome day out enjoying nature from the water ๐
Many people seem to fear the future because of what they feel it will become. But I feel the world is changing for the better. Everyone dies. A significant number of people who hold the most heinous views are dying out. In their void, are rising those with less heinous views, and once they are […]
Better late than never. This was from last year ๐ Download video
