My dear friend Kieran passed away on Thursday 2nd July. Many of you will know him as Illformed or dblue, the creator of the famous Glitch VST plugin. He was the most genuine, no-bullshit, kind-hearted, generous person I have known.

This Stewart Lee record shop crawl is just a funny, brilliant 30 minutes for vinyl and music nerds - mentions one of my fave labels @castlesinspace.bsky.social too! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN2X...

One of the biggest changes to the UI and user workflows that we've made in a long time. The goal is always to make things better ofc but PLEASE for the love of god, test it out and give us feedback before we release it to millions of people. P L E A S E

This is the guy the UK is handing much of its MoD AND NHS data handling to… The longer it goes on, the more entrenched his software will become. The harder it will be to ever remove it.

Reminder that memory manufacturers (including Samsung, Hynix, and Micron) were found to be an actual dictionary definition "cartel" back in the 2000s and were accused of illegal price fixing again in the late 2010s. They have been trying to screw you for literal decades.

Palantir is owned and run by techno-fascist crazies who are allied to the Trump regime. Whatever efficiency gains using them promises the UK should not allow critical state functions to become dependent on their services, which we can reasonably fear will be used as leverage to blackmail us.

When "Tommy" Yaxley Lennon is openly praising Russia when he visits Mr Racist Musk Senior there, the links to his financial backers are clear www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

So it turns out that the pathetic Nazi thugs who threw Molotovs out of their prams in Belfast last week are Russian puppets. Having your strings pulled by Putin makes you a gullible joke to be laughed at, not a “patriot”

off to watch backrooms and obsession back to back tonight!

We the anti-fascists outnumber the fascists by a mile. We are surrounding them. Brighton is anti fascist

is "cool" the longest running slang word? it has spanned generations and has never dropped from casual vernacular. there were occasions where people tried to use "hot" instead, and more recently "fire". but non have usurped "cool".

available for pre-order now, Sodium Yellow Night by The Speaking Clock. two tracks available for preview. i'm very much enjoying "Talking in the Dark". so fuzzy and warm. On cassette too!

"infant killed" fuck the new york times.

Those fucking racists who’ve spent the last fifteen years demonising Poles, complaining about Polski Skleps on high streets, demanding their deportation, now trying to use the murder of Henry Nowak for their own racist purposes can fuck right off.

Every year for Pride, I repost Hue. I made him to send love and comfort to those who feel Pride isn’t for them because they aren’t out. You matter, you are valid, and it’s ok if you aren’t ready yet. Coming out is not a requirement for being part of this community. Happy Pride 🌈

new @machinedrum.bsky.social !

merry pridemas!

A leaked letter signed by 400 female writers has criticised the corporation for what it calls the ‘silencing of women’s voices’ in women’s stories for commissioning a male writer for a drama about the Met police and the Sarah Everard murder. Read it in full here: www.thenerve.news/p/female-scr...

checking out @fluxer.app again 2 months after all the hype to see if it's ready to replace discord. unfortunately from a user perspective, nothing has changed. push-to-talk still does not work. screenshare with audio still does not work. member lists do not always load. will check again in 2 months

This is why I’ve switched back to CDs and self-hosted lossless streaming.
