Of course, even with 16GB RAM, there’s a limit to how many apps can run at the same time on my 6-year old Macbook Pro...

But I’m pretty happy with the set-up in any case.

A sudden revalation: I finally discovered how to use the MacOS multiple desktops function! I know have setup with two screens and multiple virtual desktops on each -- and two og the buttons on my Logitech vertical mouse programmed to quickly scoll between them.

It's like a whole new world! I spend two minutes at the start of the day setting up desktops with the things I need for that day, and...just work.

Ah; life's simple pleasures.

How to deal with it being -20 outside.

And then I noticed the YouTube link in the discogs record, and now my productivity is shot as I'm listening to sea shanties and am transported back to being 9 years old...

When I was a child, my parents had this record: https://www.discogs.com/The-Men-Of-The-Robert-Shaw-Chorale-Sea-Shanties/master/340122

I think I played it just about every day (and probably drove my parents crazy...)

I am just loving the current sea shanty revival.

At this time of year, I always feel a need to show off the surroundings where I live. It seems like this area was made for winter... The cloudy day was January 1st, the sunny day the 3rd.

For those of you in more southerly latitudes; the dawn sky picture is taken at 8.50 am, about 40 min. before sunrise.

Ponder, for a moment, the relationship between these two things.

Thankfully there's enough left for tonight's birthday dinner. (Mine; I'm 55 today).

Seasons greetings.
