Rolo stopped chewing his bone and watched the entire intro to The Pelican Brief. He lost all interest once humans appeared on screen! 🤣 #DogsOfMastodon

I've only seen three of these, so far, but plan to catch a few more of them. -> "Adam Nayman reflects on the most striking and memorable visual compositions from movies released in 2020..."

One from the mobile... just above Copper Snout. There's a scheduled monument, the "Clennell Street Cross Dyke", on the spur below. It's well preserved and includes the foundations of two buildings whose doorways face south, although it sounds like their original purpose is now uncertain. #northumberland #cheviots https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1017736

Above the Coquet Valley in #Northumberland earlier today. A tad chilly on the finger-ends! ❄️

First fun festive foray with a lensball... 🎄 #photography #lensball

Microsoft Exchange... 🤔 I appreciate its not FOSS, but wondered if anyone seeing this toot has ever had cause to forward (duplicate) all their users' inbound/outbound emails to an external domain for a month or so; for example during a transition to a new organisation. Easily done with a mail flow rule for just a few people, but I suspect that will quickly become unmanageable. Still pondering, but any thoughts would be very welcome. 🤞😁

"PimpMyKali" is a script that's worth a look, if you like this sort of thing. 😉 Solved a display problem I was having with kernel 5.8 on VirtualBox, but it does a lot more besides that. 👍

I think this Argon-1 case might be one of the nicest Pi cases I've tried so far... and I've tried some of the "usual" and some of the "slightly less than usual" cases in the past! 🤣

Time for a Kodi upgrade! 😁👍 #RPi4

Choose an "Alpkit Qark" headtorch after a bit of deliberation. Great price, but it also meant that I could buy in person from a local outdoors shop. Full brightness (580 lumens) is crazily bright, the mobile phone photo doesn't do it justice. It's only 95g and easily lights the full width of a track or country lane. In reality the brightness felt like this to me running on half-power... that's me and the torch! 🤣🏃‍♂️ #running

Running off into the sunset, heading back into moonrise over Hadrian's Wall... might have to get myself a headtorch at this rate! 🤣 #running

Thinking of buying your dog a lovely new comfortable bed...? 🤣 #dogsofmastodon

Rather tempted by this Bangle JS hackable smartwatch -> https://www.hackster.io/news/hands-on-with-the-bangle-js-27a4899dc3bd
If you happen to be reading this toot, do you have any experience of it? The review is mildly critical of its GPS receiver, and makes me wonder how effective it might be for recording wild swimming 'tracks'. 🤔
