One day you will be gone.
What defines your legacy,
is not the gadgets you had,
but what impact you left behind.

One day your name will be forgotten.
But your legacy will live on.
Your impact will live on in others,
even if they don’t know your name.

One day your words will be silent.
Your thoughts lost in a different time.
But what you did to others,
still affects the world,
and in some way lives on. – Bjørn Johansen

This is something I found via Bjørn Johansen’s blog www.bjornjohansen.com/memento-mori. I feel it is an excellent viewpoint from which to look at our own lives.

This is a variant of 4 player chess that I think would work well. It has less pieces than a traditional 4 player board, which should reduce complexity, and the eighth rank, for promotion, is very clear, since it’s delineated by when you reach your opposite opponents zone.

I think I last owned one of those around 2005/2006 when I upgraded to an MP3 player. I remember saying that MP3 players were dumb, and that their functionality should just be combined into the phone which we were all already lugging around in our pocket. Nobody seemed to agree.

This was the first watch I bought with my own money. Mine was a lemon colour rather than this lime one.

Liuba took this photo of me during an Asphalt League race on iRacing. I didn’t realise how poor my cable management was until looking at the photo. And yes, my racing rig is in my wardrobe.
