Respect to whoever put this sticker on a post box in Baker Street.

Well, that's my wrapping paper sorted for this year 🐈‍⬛

And get your speakers hooked up

Not sure if I've posted this here before, but here's a couple of pictures of my #LianLi #Snail PC case 🐌 This is the small version, they did an even bigger one! Really need to fire this up and do some Windows updates 😄

Didn't manage to grow a lot this year, but @tonyfishlock.bsky.social has just stewed this little lot up and served with some custard 😋

When we posted this a couple of weeks ago, we had some AI enthusiasts insist that this diagram was the result of poor prompting, or that the prompt that the original poster made was to generate a funny, bad diagram. So we decided to test ChatGPT's capability...

Important information

I mean it's boxed, has games, and and is very nice n all, but fucking hell! I'll stick with my unboxed £30 version thanks! #Colecovision #retrogaming #ebay ebay.us/m/ubqNMW

🤏📺 The smallest CRT monitor in our collection. 😍 The dimensions are 21 cm x 24 cm, which means that the longer side is 5 cm shorter than the A4 format. Doesn't it just make you say awwww when you see it? 😻

If you see this, QTP with a cartoon with an amazing theme song! youtu.be/d2EJicGNelE?...

Oh man, Bluesky allows posting your own gifs now. Fucking. Gamechanger.

Some of @tonyfishlock.bsky.social's old #Lego people have lost their faces. Was wondering if a simple old skool emoji would would work as a replacement :) After all, they're not that complicated. Not quite there on this labeller, just wondering if I have black on clear labels for any of the others 🤔

Anyone here know anything about #jellycat? I bought this clam, which I think is called #clamtastique, years ago at a boot sale, but can only find two references online, neither of which are the same model? Issue? More pictures and links in 🧵 www.reddit.com/r/Jellycatpl...

Knock-off #Lego train based on that famous loco the 'Luxury Guest Room' 🤣🤣

If you've ever dealt with a swollen laptop battery, you'll love these throw pillows on Aliexpress. When I saw these, I thought they were hilarious :)

All the computer 100w could get you in 2007, and then some.

Good news about the cutting-edge AI tools from the $3-trillion-dollar company.

I refuse to die in a storm named Wubbo.

So… I just got rid of AI Overview in Firefox! Here's a how-to (Follow only, if you know what this is about. There may be side-effects to other google pages. In brief, we set up a local rule to suppress the display of any division element with a certain attribute on `google.com`.)

Not only but also.. The remaining Penultimate+2's now feature Turboload (Speeds up your existing SD2IEC or real drives).. Obv's it's not as fully featured as the PU+3dcr, but at least it gets a shiny golden label 😉 www.tfw8b.com/product/penu... #Commodore #VIC20

Bloody hell, as someone who grew up with hand scanners who then used a flatbed and thought it witchcraft, this is witchcraft!

Competition Pro 25 Jahre

Today's boot sale was only a few rows due to a forcast of rain. Did manage to pick up this IRIScan Mouse Executive 2 scanner/mouse though. Cost me £2, I thought it was just a bit of a pointless novelty. It appears to be CIB.

Popped down to Shoreham Harbour this afternoon ... Galeon Andalucia (17th century Spanish galleon repleca) is moored there till tomorrow. Very impressive sight ... not too sure I'd want to go to sea in it mind.

Hehheh 💩

No brush, no pencil. Just a typewriter. Artist James, using a 1930s Smith Premier typewriter, typed out this painting. #art #printer #unique #typewriter #illustration

I was doing a comedy workshop in a school recently and a 10 year old told me this one: "What goes up the road, down the road, but never touches the road? The council."

The Trilo-bot is now fully operational!

The world's heaviest ™️ #Commodore64 is starting to come together nicely! Still a WIP by @tonyfishlock.bsky.social, but at least it's not festering in the Shed of Doom! @petescircuit.bsky.social @binarydinosaurs.co.uk

NEW IN Look in Magazines Look-in was a children's magazine centred on ITV's television programmes in the United Kingdom. It ran from 9 January 1971 to 12 March 1994. These range from 1988 to 1991 I remember seeing these and buying them in newsagents growing up. Pure nostalgia! £3 each

I managed to buy a laptop with a copilot key not realizing that it can't be set to act as the ctrl key, and all workarounds ignore the fact that the hardware actually sends "win+shift+f23", taking over the shift button and making shift+ctrl+arrow key selection impossible. Well. NO. MORE. COPILOT.

Child is happy, as these are back in Iceland again. Better get the 🧻🧻 in the fridge!

You know when it been hot and dry in the UK when grapes flourish in the East Midlands. Not known for its wine growing.

In other useless crap I bought today, this little #Atari #Pong machine. It's pretty neat though and has a few more games than just Pong on it. Also picked up some Win 7 and Win 10 stickers (soon be obsolete 😉) so if anyone's refurbished and old PC and needs a sticker let me know 😃

ME: I'm just going for a wander round the #carbootsale for a bit of fresh air and exercise. I have no intention of buying any more useless crap. ALSO ME: ⬇️⬇️
