#bringBackFirefly Hell yeah!

I just saw this happen in person. Thankfully the camera caught it also 🤣🤣🤣

Wow. Iran raining missiles on Dubai, Doha and Bahrain. Why? Dubai Airport hit, Burj al Arab hit, the Palm hit. 3 of the biggest landmarks in Dubai can't be a mistake. I have friends in Dubai who are understandably, absolutely terrified. Dubai airport not opening anytime soon either. 🙏

I don't like mixing politics and social media but..... LOOOOOOOOOOL

Pretty happy with this print of a battery cover for a vintage game. Fits like a dream!

Amazing trip to Central/ Eastern Europe. Prague, Bratislava, Kosice, Vienna. Beautiful countryside, amazing food, warm and hospitable people, incredible history, medieval castles and a lot of snow! Now back in Ibiza, sunny 18c. Life is good!

Stumbled into the coolest little shop in Košice, Slovakia. Amongst other things, the guy had a working Edison cylinder player, manufactured 1896. Perfect working order.

The problem is much more far reaching than just headphones. Furniture, curtains, car seats, plane seats, anything that is flame retarded, is drenched in awful chemicals. We are surrounded by this stuff daily. Worrying about headphones is a bit pointless. www.techspot.com/news/111380-...

Yep, I'm pretty keen to play this. store.steampowered.com/app/2643390/...

I'm not a hiking kind of guy usually, but I just did a 10km hike in the snow with my FIL and BIL up one of the mountains in Slovakia, ending at a restaurant at a frozen lake where we drank hot wine and ate goulash. What an amazing experience!

Prague is the city of cool typefaces. Everywhere you look is a great font. This is the metro station.

New Airbus A220 Noice!

Finally got a flight off the island. I won the low cost airline bingo. Middle seat, guy on left sick, coughing not covering mouth, morbidly obese guy on right with extreme personal hygiene issues, so bad I had to cover my face with a scarf. Someone behind playing candy crush at full volume.

Watching an online tutorial on how to repair something is no substitute for having training, experience and the right tools and the knowledge and skills to use them. The amount of vintage gear I'm seeing destroyed by hack repair jobs is becoming alarming. There I said it.

So, in the end I'm back at home in Ibiza, trip to Prague postponed due to 160kph wind gusts at the airport 😱 Now, should I just take a night off and watch a movie or should I edit some videos? Decisions, decisions...

50 knot wind gusts in Ibiza, sitting at the airport, everything delayed, I don't think I'm going to make my connection to Prague in Barcelona. Time to go to the bar and find a beer. It's almost lunch time.

Geezuz. I just tried to use ChatGPT to assist me with some workflow optimisation in Resolve. What a complete and utter waste of time. Telling me to click GUI elements that do not exist, shortcuts that don't work, context menu options that didn't exist. Total hallucinations 🤯 What a disaster.

Seth Rogan rebooting the Muppet show in 2026 was not on my bingo card. But it's actually pretty great. If you loved the show as a kid, it's well worth a watch. youtu.be/hSLE5Psfs6U

Just a few of the cool tech from #ISE this year

ISE Barcelona had been epic, saw lots of cool tech, met lots of cool techs, walked 30 thousand steps, it was amazing... But dang, I can't wait to fly home tomorrow after 6 nights in a row in hotels.

The UX designers for Vueling airline are my kind of people. Got this when changing my flight on Thursday 😂

So, I just bought this watch case for 5 euros with the idea to put some modern guts into it. PS. have never repaired, worked on or designed a watch before. Can it be that hard?

Sometimes you gotta just take a break from the work bench and walk outside and look at the nature. #ibizasunset

Currently listening to some pretty rad indie tough deep synth retrowave music in the workshop! isidorbobinec.bandcamp.com/album/stella...

Next week is going to be a good one! Spur of the moment trip to the Basque country in the North of Spain for a bit of a food and shopping trip. Then to Integrated Systems Europe in Barcelona to check out some new lighting and display tech. Then back to Ibiza.

Oof. I've had the stomach bug that seems to be ravaging the island. Was in bed for 2 days. But now I'm back and today on the repair bench we have a Solid State Logic audio interface. It was dropped and then never worked again. Might be a trace repair kind of day.

Early humans discovered that they could plant seeds to grow food. Then followed agriculture and people no longer needed to hunt and gather. All of a sudden some people had time to study and invent, and to create art...

For the first time in history, Apple's RAM prices are now actually not a bad deal.

Just for something different and a bit fun, I'm fixing up a couple of vintage handhelds. As a kid I had the yellow Invader and my best friend had the blue Space Galaxy. #gakken #retrogames

Another day, another expensive piece if DJ kit with a drink spill. Pioneer RMX1000 with what looks like coca cola dried up inside.

Is there such a thing as a self wetting solder sponge? With a reservoir that somehow just keeps it wet? Cause if there is, I need one in my life.

I was lucky enough to work on Big Day Out festival for about 8 years or so. Did everything from Nirvana to Black Eyed Peas. Used to be a great festival. Great memories.

Bit of absolutely shameless self promotion on #TapeBoxTuesday I offer a Duplication Service for Reel to Reel Tapes I carry a selection of stock - NoS, Used Recycled Vintage, various sizes from 5” to 10.5” NAB All speeds up to 15” p/s, Full & Half Track, Stereo 4 Track, Quad etc Drop me a line

Today I figured out that you can just use a fork to position a sausage perfectly for an even cook, without it rolling in the pan. How did I not figure this out decades ago? Life hack unlocked.

Today on the bench is the ubiquitous CDJ3000 with a drink spill. A full Aperol Spritz straight into the jog wheel, then left to sit in a room somewhere for 2 weeks before it was brought to me. This should be fun.

I think I can now confidently say, I'm an expert on the Korg Polysix. The one I just repaired had just about everything wrong with it. I studied the circuit diagrams for a week solving issue after issue, like a clown pulling scarves out of his sleeve. It's finally fixed, restored, looks amazing.

This is a great project, launched to coincide with the decommissioning of MTV in Europe. wantmymtv.xyz/player.html

This is a pretty great little DIY Test Pattern Gen! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTGE...

Unbelievably, the $3000 Roland TR-1000 has MIDI sync issues. It won't lock with a DAW or another drum machine. Eh #Roland get your shit together. In 2026 this is a solved problem. #TR1000 #MIDI

Wow, I'm so happy I built my new PC workstation in October. And I'm double happy I went with 96mb DDR5. Ended up building: 9950x ASUS Proart x870e 96mb EXPO 6000 RTX5080 8tb Gen 5 NVME Turned my old workstation into a 10 gig NAS Did it really at the PERFECT time. hashtag blessed

There's nothing better than my wife baking cookies and sweets for Christmas. The house smells amazing! #australianslice #anzacbiscuits #caramelslice
