I really appreciated Car (magazine U.K.) making their digital copies available to non-digital subscribers while the presses where shut down due to COVID-19. Car Magazine (Android) But after a few months reading it, sort of, on the phone* I was so happy to see this arrive in the mail
Having used iOS, Android I still have not found a phone UI to match Windows Phone for simplicity, flexibility and customisation. With the demise of it I ended up on Android and looked for a way around the worst aspect of iOS and Android: having to manage a grid of

From the days of Level 4 lock down: A team challenge to 'create COVID-19 protective costume from found items' for an on-line meeting. The hope was divine Flying Spaghetti Monster protection would offset the colander holes. * The badge was on-hand to replace an aging plastic one fitted in
Nice to see a summary of the brilliant COVID-19 Info from Siouxsie Wiles (@siouxsiew), Toby Morris (@XTOTL) and The Spinoff ( @TheSpinoffTV) The bumper Toby Morris & Siouxsie Wiles Covid-19 box set The animations and illustrations created by Toby Morris in collaboration with Siouxsie Wiles and published by The Spinoff have
Filled up AHBART yesterday, 60 days since last fill and could still only get 24 litres into the (35 litre) tank. Mind you have only driven 316km and half of that was before lockdown!
Not sure when it started but both AutoCAD & Revit started Zooming to extents after a 'hold the wheel' mouse pan. Maybe something changed (mouse driver) or working on a remote connected machine impacts timing... Bit of a searching I found an Autodesk forum post (about AutoCAD) but
