I noticed the other day that my wife's laptop was showing seconds in the time in the taskbar but my laptop was not; a very handy feature to have.

I thought it was worth documenting my current setup for this blog. Most of it is automated and it costs me nothing to host it.

My current role means I work full time from home - which is great. The commute is easier, the food is better and having flexibility is great.

I am working on a Maui application in my spare time and Visual Studio has this annoying habit of not showing the default Android emulator when I load the project. I could go through the hassle of creating a new emulator each time but that is painful and slow.

I have a Dell XPS13 laptop and it developed this really annoying habit of randomly freezing for a few seconds and then carrying on as if nothing had happened. It quite often happened in the middle of a work call which made it pretty much unusable.
