finally put the finishing touches on my home page:

all CSS animations, zero JS, and a fun license agreement in the source code ;)


ok I have a budget of about £150 to spend on tech upgrades, and 3 options for things on which to spend it.

option 1: a new smartphone. my current smartphone is mostly fine, but occasionally has a bug where it suddenly goes unresponsive for a few hours and only a reboot can fix it. maybe fixable by flashing a new ROM. maybe something hardware-related.

option 2: a thinkpad x240. I really want a cool tiny laptop for a super portable daily driver, and this seems like a perfect balance of spec/price/size. I already have a big and heavy macbook through work though, plus an x1 carbon that I never use.

option 3: a new 3tb hard drive. currently I have a 3TB HDD and a 2TB HDD in a RAID 1 array on my NAS (which means 1TB of the 3TB disk is sitting idle). getting the upgrade would mean being able to swap out the 2TB one into my desktop and have an extra 1TB in the RAID-1

what should I do?
