Just had an intimidating looking fellow cold calling to clean the gutters. Hilariously they so obviously and desperately need clearing (I had peered into them this morning) but sure as shit not by a cold caller.

Sweet fucking lord alive I would have kicked this stand over

I am deeply saddened to report that drinking a litre of raspberry lemonade has not worked as a substitute for sleep.

Memory is a fascinating thing, for example mine somehow turned the 1992 film Toys staring Robin Williams and LL Cool J into not a baffling meandering disaster.

“HP EliteBoard G1a Next Gen AI PC” Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha why the fuck do I write about tech again?

New video drop by me. Final one about my PSP game. If you wondered about how much it made and the conclusion well ... here it is #gamedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VGg...

The JE-8086 emulator/vst is fucking immense, TUS are absolute legends for pulling this together

Do 39C3 talks really need a whole 15 seconds of gratuitous fart noises before the talk begins?

Anyway, anyone got any advice for jacketing or conduit that I could stick an indoor rated optical SFP+ cable through so the sun and the cold and the kids don't wreck it? Honestly tempted to just YOLO it since it's not expensive, but the effort of relaying cable if it breaks would suuuck.

What really gets me about the Xbox 360 is it's the console I was playing several generations after the real old stuff, so it still feels very new, and even set the stage for a lot of modern games console ideas. Yet it's now officially over 20 years old 😭

Nice to see LEGO have finally caught up with electronics circa 2015 😐

I've seen this movie and it didn't go well

Every fucking Roku press release I get is "we've developed fascinating new technology to spy on our users in exciting new ways" and jesus christ take your Roku out back and smash it.

Has the quest for an easier wank gone too far?

Solderpaste 😯

Figured I might as well use the Xbox 360 "Live Camera" with Home Assistant green and whaddyaknow, it works!

Well despite a dumpster fire of a day I did manage to plug in an SFP optical cable and force it to 2.5G….. Of course I bought an *indoor* one for an outdoor run 🙃

Uh I don't want to tell you your own business Virgin Media, but that's a fucking electrical socket.

not sure if this is a threat?

Sweet fucking christ why are broadband suppliers so fucking annoying

I don't know if I resent this phishing attempt or am in awe of the audacity and deviousness of it. Carry on as you were, criminals 🤣

Update: I did the thing: gist.github.com/Gadgetoid/8f... If anyone wants to do the maths for syncing up the start/finish I am too lazy to do it myself and too principled to ask a plagiarism machine.

😴

Huge protest in Tehran's southern Naziabad neighborhood. Streets jammed. #Iran

Judging by my sendgrid-only email getting hit with phishing attempts I guess they got their shit rocked at some point 😐

When someone checks you on your bullshit and you don’t really get how right they were until someone basically repeats your own dumb comment and you think “holy shit that sounds du… aw fuck.”

MeUndies look like shit tho?

Southwold was better when it wasn’t chock full of cunts

I have been able to keep the original Lego power switch mechanism by changing only a few tiny things. I'm super happy with v0.4.2 of the housing. It might be PCB order time

Sometimes you have to ask a question of life’s greatest mysteries- like, to pick a totally random example, is it possible I’ve got a small fracture in my sternum?

Praise fucking be the Lord hath blessed me this day

I wonder if I can 3D print some skateboard wheels chocks for balance practise 🤔 (For the kids of course, I cut my teeth with a cheap deck and crap bearings on on the carpet at work 🤣)

Challenge turn your fucking high beams off *before* blinding me, assholes That bright light you can see over the hill is an oncoming car for fucks sake, get a clue.

The fuck is Badlands? If people wanted a movie with a predator as the protagonist they could have just watched The Usual Suspects 💀

Torn between wanting to buy a regular skateboard (I skate a chonky nickel) and learn to actually ollie, versus not encouraging any more parts of me to hurt… 🤔

For probably the most boring person alive my childhood was pretty whack 🤣

Thinkin’ ’bout how being Japanese set Nintendo up for a smash hit success with the Wii. Compared to its contemporaries it was the only “motion” style you could use in a small home without absurd compromises. Trying to play Kinect again and having to move furniture to get a big enough play space.

After testing with a type C breakout and a mess of jumper jerky and croc clips into the battery compartment I ordered some nice little panel mount USB Type-C connectors with indicator LEDs…. Turns out picking the ones with LEDs was probably a mistake. Just enough voltage drop to upset the motor.

I’d let you slide down my slippery-slip — you get down to the bottom very quickly that way, you know. 😐

Prepped pork loin for Christmas rolls with a six hour slow cook today and it took all the willpower in the world not to just eat it.

Me *drumming* *cleaning bathroom* My watch: congratulations on reaching 5000 steps

Once again I would like to remind people that I called Honey on their bullshit like a decade ago. Tbf anyone with more than five minutes experience with affiliate marketing should have clocked the “last cookie” stealing instantly. We haven’t made the inroads to technology literacy we ought to.

github: I know, we'll hide the repository account from people behind a "..." because that absolutely isn't an enormous vector for attacks.
