I've always liked the Honda e, saw one on the A1 earlier, was disappointed not to see an E. Honda sticker on the back though.

Did Youtube make the 'Subscriptions' button a two-step process for a couple of days then revert it, or was I part of some A/B testing? Also, my bsky 'new post' button has disappeared again.

I seem to have lost the 'post' button here, I've had to go to bsky.app/intent/compose to post this. How weird.

I'm on my way into the office for the first time in 3 years to get a new laptop. Other peoples' commuting etiquette (or lack thereof) is already grinding my gears.

I bought an old book which arrived today. Inside the front cover is a note to a Mr S R Jones from the author, which was a nice surprise.

Big bonfire at Ware Fireworks tonight, good view from the top of the Firework area.

Was about to drive down to Whitstable and see my mum when the front door decided it simply will not lock with any key, from the inside or out. Cancelled :(

If you're a member of an amateur radio-related group, wreak havoc by changing your callsign :)

I love a good music video. Igorrr's ADHD. #goodmusicvideo www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGIvO4eh190

Tune.

The sequel to District 9 isn't coming, is it :(

I've been slowly ripping all my CDs to FLAC. This is my Björk collection. I thought I had more!

Just had a delivery, Amazon guy, didn't bother to ring the doorbell but whacked my car to set the alarm off instead. WTF?

Does anyone remember synergy, originally for Linux, the little application that allowed you to share a keyboard and mouse over the network? It still exists but good grief, it's as corporatively shit as it could be now. Are there any alternatives? I want to remotely control a Windows laptop.

I can't reply to this post but I'd like a Metroidvaniaslug Street Fighter II.

I feel seen.

I could absolutely smash two weeks in a villa with a private pool in Paxos right now.

When I woke up this morning I noticed some 'stuff' on the floor next to the cat bed. Upon closer inspection it looked like 4-5 rather large spider legs, some were over 3 inches long! I think the cat must have eaten it overnight, grim. How long has that been in the bedroom?!

Here's Seamus, following us around while we foraged in the field out back earlier.

I'd forgotten about this sort of thing until I saw the spectogram on foobar2000. Aphex Twin's Formula/Equation (not its actual title) on the Windowlicker EP.

These 20 second power cuts are really irritating.

Why don't we have comedies like Blackadder, Red Dwarf, The Day Today, Brass Eye, etc anymore?

Seems it reached 35.6C today at 4pm, it's going to be an uncomfortable night!

The birdies are appreciating the twice-daily filled birdbath in this weather. I wish one of the pigeons would stop pooing in it though.

Recently decided to re-rip all my CDs to FLAC. I'm using EAC and, annoyingly, it seems some of the older Autechre CDs have some read errors :( No damage or scratches to the CDs though, I guess they're just deteriorating.

Whoever it is that creates Ofcom's WTR CSV has decided that, for null/empty fields, a hyphen is an acceptable placeholder. Grr. Who does this?

A close friend of mine just passed his Foundation licence, great news! He doesn't have a callsign yet but should be choosing tomorrow. It's only been 12 years since I passed my first exam (feels longer!) but I remember how great it felt.

The Prodigy were good, nice shout for Keith at the end.

Unbelievable.

Nice CD I got recently. Bloody well not cheap though but glad to have it in the Aphex collection.

Top ten of Ambient music albums? I think so. Boards of Canada, Tomorrow's Harvest. Perhaps somewhat topical given its post-apocalyptic undertones. Let's hope not.

Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works II. My battered original and the recent re-release CD.

I've been playing a lot of CDs now I have a player again. Autechre's 1992 to 2002 at the moment, I love the Vapres. I've been in touch with the guy that made the rack so I can move the Focusrite and TEAC to the other stand soon.

Gosh, I hate needles being stuck into the inside of my mouth.

There is nothing more annoying than being given a long list of locations in what3words format and having to convert them to not only lat/long for Google Maps, but also OSNG for some members of my team. It takes forever and massively pisses me off.

I've just read that Insider let go of 20% of their workforce, so no more Harry and Joe on Food Insider. I know Joe had left recently but that's a double-blow.

This is a cool introduction to synthesisers in your browser by Ableton, learningsynths.ableton.com

Well that escalated quickly.

Good purchase.

The Pac Man lamp is great, but the theme playing on every mains power-up (excuse the pun) can be irritating. I added a push switch on the bottom to cut the speaker off when I don't want to hear it.

Miniermog.

Minimog.

Portable Syndicate! Finally got the Amiga emulator working under RetroArch.

Hi @georgepenney.bsky.social, here is my small anecdote. I spent two nights at The Camphouse on Taranaki over the 20th & 21st Jan 2009. The first night I arrived late because I'd driven from Auckland via the Forgotten World Highway, and it took a lot longer than I expected.

Charity shop score repost to spell the author's name correctly in the alt text!

I emailed Tissot a couple of hours ago about getting a lug pin replaced on an old watch. They replied with useful info within an hour! Wasn't expecting that.

Better start panic-watching films!

I'd like to own a good sized bookshop that stinks of old books and good coffee and makes me rich. Where do I start?

Have I been blocked by YouTube, at the YouTube level? Looks almost like a CDN has stopped working.

Thank you very much @wgoodf.bsky.social for the Cambridge Programmable manuals, there's some interesting things in there. Top-shelf stuff!
