    Took a picture of some native irises growing in the wild in a park near me.

    The flowers are about 2 cms big.

        I think they’re lovely, just wild little native flowers that no one takes any notice of .😊

        and our flowers are small because they haven’t been cultivated to grow big, these are a natural species, not some hybrid or mutant

    Me: orders a second hand 240gb SATA m2 on ebay, foolishly reading the description and not the photo
    also me: gets a 256gb NVME m2
    Me: hey seller heads up this is a different thing
    Seller: “THE PHOTO SHOWS YOU WHAT YOUR GONNA GET”
    Me: ok bud ya got me there but you should know an NVME m2 is worth a lot more than a SATA one.

    Massive bogong moth wave last night down here. Went out into the garden at sunset basically walking through a sea of them.

    Seen a few midge plagues before but never moths like that. Was impressive.

    Heaps in the house. Can’t do much. Back to melbs today so it’s a later problem.

      I only have one in the house, and that’s because Mr Woof brought it inside to show off his hunting prowess. I tried putting it in the bin, but he pulled it out again so it’s currently in the middle of the lounge room.

      That’s really good about the moths. 😊

      I grew up when there were so many of them everywhere. Every single street lamp at night, every outdoor light, every crack of light would have dozens pf moths crowding around. And of course car wind shields would get bug splats.

      They don’t do damage, or not much. Just looking for a cool place to sleep away the summer. If you don’t want them in the house, you may need to call a pest controller as dealing with that many moffs can be difficult.

    The most important thing about the new Star Wars game is there are a bunch of weird little guys that talk funny. Sure the racing and crashes look good, but there’s a crocodile guy that goes “SCRIB DOOON”

    Nearly done organising/moving. 😊

    Bill is really starting to settle in, he’s sleeping better, not hiding, and eating well. No pee accidents any more.

    Back in the day I’d hate it when Microsoft brought anything new out. KDE has just added a Sticky Note widget to my taskbar and I’m like, “Okay, I’ll try this out.” It’s the difference between software trying to exploit you and software trying to help you.

    Been pretty nice a day, despite the fact I woke up and suddenly had a migraine and ended up laying down in bed for a good amount of hours. Hours that could have been spent playing about on my C64U and working toward completing Briley Witch Chronicles.

    Missing: 1 giant lemon grabbed from FreeBox around the corner the other day. I could go for a short walk, but this wouldn’t solve a puzzle.

    Many thanks to IT for threatening to lock me out of a device that was handed back to them approaching 6 months ago. Very helpful.
