Some Thoughts on Cyberpunk 2077 As many others I was excited for Cyberpunk 2077. I absolutely loved “The Wither 3” and I was always a fan of Neuromancer and Blade Runner. However when the game finally came out, I didn't buy it right away for multiple reasons. One was the steep price of 60 EUR, then there were lots of reports of bugs at launch. Most importantly I wasn't sure if my computer would actually be able to play the game.… ▶

Printer Cupboard My wood working workshop is a great way to relax from all the pandemic home working madness we're in. However many of the things I made so far were smaller projects or improvements to the shop itself. So here's a bigger thing recently finished.… ▶

DIY ICCB Wall Box As a new sub-urbanite, I was pondering getting a car for a while now, but wasn't super keen on all the side effects of car-ownership. So I was very happy when the opportunity to get a company car arose. I was briefly thinking of getting a pure electric car, but in the end found a plugin-in hybrid to be the more practical alternative.
