Horses. Up there with bicycles as the bane of many an artist. However, I figured out a foolproof way of drawing them, and I want to share that with you! 😊

re @anthropic.com: I've identified industrial-scale copyright violations on my content by Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, X, and more. These companies created thousands of crawlers incorporating the text of all my blog posts, open source code, and books into their paid AI models to profit exorbitantly.

Look at that big ox!

An interesting walk around Lincoln today, it’s been a while since we walked up Steep Hill, to the castle and the Cathedral. It’s the first time I’ve seen a Cat cafe in real life, the patrons were busy fettling the feline clientele.

On the bright side maybe they’ll go back to making dumb TVs and take the internet back out of refrigerators 🤔

Well I’ve finally finished Fallout 4. This save started in November 2015 on my PS4, migrated to my PS4 Pro, and finally onto my PS5. The Institute story’s done. The railroad story’s next. #fallout4

Alt text won't kill you. It gives context. In this time of rampant misinformation, lies, fake content and a growing population that lacks critical thinking and research initiative, posting images with no ALT and no context is lazy and unhelpful. Be part of the solution online. It is that serious.

Someone help this guy complete the set!

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

Oooo that new joystick suits you, sir. Do you like it? Oooo.

I’ve obviously pissed off Luke that much he’d rather enjoy the view of the sofa. #LuketheCat

Update from Channel 4:

Well, the Bone Temple has been watched, I’m sat in the cinema and the 28 days later tune is ringing out whilst the credits are running. Feck. It’s going to take some time to process. Lets hope the final one gets funded and gets released.

Completed my second game of the year. Nostalgia was strong with this one. Star Wars Lego II just reminds me of playing with my son on the GameCube and 360.

Now ban all betting ads.

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

A couple of cheap pickups. I do love a PS3 game, and Sega Rally is a dupe, but couldn’t leave it in the shop.

Jan 1. Jan 3.

Seems legit.

Well charging my car at 4am at Maccies after taking the eldest daughter to hospital with a suspected twisted ankle after a night out was not how I planned on spending my new year early morning. #parenting

Just getting in before it all crashes 😉

it’s all i’ve got

🕹️ Nice evening of #VIC20 #retrocomputing playing AJ Layden’s new Super VIC TT and Raspberrypioneer’s excellent port of Boulderdash. #HappyPlace

Yesterday @bootsmcgoot.bsky.social and I saw some techbro giving “30 pieces of advice for people under 30” over on Twitter and it was all grind culture bullshit. As adults of 38 and 43 respectively, we compiled 30 pieces of advice that people under 30 won’t have heard before:

I was made redundant in August from ${dayJob} and then found myself writing a 3D engine for the Spectrum Next team that can be called from C or assembler in z88dk. I'm quite pleased with this.

Very weird to log into your Xbox account on your PlayStation 5. The eldest daughter got it cheap for me as an Xmas present.

As I’ve benefited from my eldest daughters Disney+, I’ve finally caught up with Andor Season 2 and Alien Earth. The shows were great and I’ve enjoyed Sydney Chandler’s and Diego Luna’s performances. The stand out alien for me was the Eye Alien. That was creepy as fuck, especially whilst in the 🐑 .

Quite the collection

And that’s why us Dad’s do it. #cableboxtotherescue

Not having a brain, on the other hand, may have saved him from a concussion.

I made a joke in my main Discord server about DOOM E1M1 being in a major key and @abigbagofkeys.sickonedude.com actually made it. Jesus fucking Christ listen to this hahahaha

“Where shall we setup the new Atari computer dear?” “The kitchen, you’ll stand up to use it.” #Atari 800

I am totally obsessed with this joke. I keep repeating it around the house.

Have a happy Sega Saturnalia!

The default donation settings are quite an eye opener. 6 times a bigger donation to the not so Humble Bundle than Save the Children. Don’t forget to use the sliders kids!

Just realised that I never stuck Jim on Tenor so I've rectified that oversight

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone - tech is now more expensive - you cannot trust most media of reality anymore - programs barely function - energy prices - literal psychosis - your voice can be literally stolen for evil - more spyware but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

I don’t need another boxed Super Nintendo….. I don’t need another boxed Super Nintendo. £68 according to the tag.

Anyone have to stop when they see patterns in numbers? Just me then.

It’s some Carol singers!

Hmm.. Looking at the calendar, I guess now is the time to say.. If you want something from www.tfw8b.com/shop/ to be delivered before #xmas, you should probably order your #8bit thing via express shipping NOW! #Commodore64 #CommodoreVIC20 #SinclairSpectrum #AndMore
