Week Notes 26#13

  • A fairly busy week back at work, catching up on what I'd missed, some follow-ups to last week's Trivy supply chain attack, and pushing forward with a number of plans
  • Pretty awful weather this week - storm earlier in the week, and as we went down to London, we had gorgeous sunshine and heavy rain and hail 😬
  • A good result at the Jam Cafe quiz, coming 4th place with 2 points in it!
  • Had a nice weekend in London, although we didn't get to see little D very much!
    • Some pretty awful traffic made the journey much slower than we'd hoped
  • Been listening to a lot of NELSØN - Press Play, as it's a bop
  • Not a fan of losing an hour's sleep 🥱 On the way home I needed to have a small nap to wake me up so I could then take the second leg of the drive
  • In Apex Legends, I'm sad so far I've only had one evening playing with (dual) Hemlok Elites, as I'm sure they'll patch how OP it is (but I still miss the Buster Rifle)
  • In Kingshot, it was Kingdom vs Kingdom (KvK) and decided to go all out with using my saved items to see how I could do, as well as showing a good effort for the kingdom
    • I ended up getting top 5 in day 2 and 3, and then realised I had so many speedups + saved resources, I could do well in day 3 (soldier training), resulting in 37M points, and a real shot at being able to get high on the overall leaderboard
    • Overall, I went up ~70M power, and hit 59.9M points overall
    • In the last morning, I was knocked from overall 1st to 2nd
    • And then in the last hour, someone knocked me from 2nd to 3rd (but thankfully no lower!)
    • Was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed being able to get to the top of the leaderboard without spending any money during the event
  • Cookie had a good weekend with Anna's parents and right now is dream barking 🥰
