  • I used to use a Drift Ghost mounted to my helmet via stick on mount. Picture was pretty good, decent battery life, rubbish sound.

    My partner used a TomTom camera which was really good. Better than the Drift in almost every way. Don’t think they make it anymore.

    If I was doing this now, I’d look to have a mounted front and back camera, like the Thinkware, rather than something on my helmet.


  • I’m still working remote, although the company has been going down the 2,3, now 4 days back in the office route. Luckily, my office was closed so they can’t push us in yet, but it’ll be a matter of time as the CEO is a believer in the collaboration etc etc that doesn’t reflect how people are actually working.

    It’s a bit comical when some of the exec discuss it. There isn’t enough office space for all the people, so the ones forced back are hot-desking and having a terrible time of it. The plan is to reduce the amount of offices, so the issue will get worse. A lot of people are on calls for a lot of the day so this just makes the whole thing a mess where you unpack all your stuff, jump onto calls, pack all your stuff again, then leave. Rinse / repeat. The execs acknowledge it but still pull all the synergy / collab / culture stuff.

    I’m moving to a new fully remote position before the RTO is enforced. It’s hard to beat not wasting hours a day and thousands a year on commuting by train. I get to actually attend my kid’s school events, take them training, spend time with them.
