Diet is not a word. It's an acronym: Dare I Eat That?

Scum telemarketing arsehole dickheads. They call my mobile & home phones at the same time. Dickwads. I can't t answer both. But I can block calls from that number on both systems.

Still not sure whether the Magic Keyboard 2 as suppled with the iMac is better for me than the solar-powered Logitech K760 I've been using for several years. Both have their good points, the Apple one pairs instantly & stays paired longer, the Logitech has more key travel & never needs charging.
But with the K760, F1, F2 & F3 are designated as the keys to select between three separate Bluetooth channels; one for the iMac, one for the iPad & the other for the iPhone.
This means I have to find other function keys. Fortunately F13, F14, F15 & F16 are available on the Belkin YourTouch numerical keypad, programmable in Keyboard Preferences.

I was needing some food last night that wasn't going to trigger a reflux attack but also had to be filling. So I cooked some arborio rice in milk then added custard at the end of proceedings. Did the job nicely, an interesting variant on creamed rice.

Rice custard is a different thing altogether: it's rice cooked in a bain marie in the oven in an egg custard mix and sets rather thicker.

Sweet! (really)

Ran Geekbench 4 on the MacBook Air & on the iMac. MBA scored 6,782 on the multi-core test. Under the same conditions, the iMac's score was just over twice that, at 13,624.

Provided you remove all trace of coffee from it, the AeroPress makes quite a good tea maker.

Dang. Out of Earl Grey tea. Just been online at www.tealeaves.com.au to get more loose leaf tea of that variety. It's gonna take a couple of days to arrive, though.
