Today is my 56th birthday. It’s also Tuesday. I was born on a Tuesday. In #fact, everyone alive today will either celebrate or have celebrated their 56th birthday on the same day of the week they were born. Same goes for 28th birthday too.

Cool scrolling, bro

Did someone in Silicon Valley watch A View To A Kill and see the threat?

What’s Christmas without a bit of Bond…

I think this place would be improved with a little message every time anyone adds an image to a post: "Is this a screen-grab of X/Twitter being a shit-hole? If so, no thanks, we've already had enough of those today"

Also worth knowing: If you have a podcast/blog with its own website address you can also set up sub-domains for each person on it to use as Bluesky handle (eg @name.website.com)

All I see in this place is "echo chamber this", "echo chamber this"

Be interesting to see if Bluesky's growing popularity, especially among content creators, will lead to resurgance of people getting their own websites, or URLs at least, to verify their accounts.

I can confirm, it really isn't.

So this is one of Bluesky's weird little quirks. Anyone who has the language of the app set to German gets an exact count of their followers if over 1000. For English users it would just say for example 1.6K Another quirk is that the count rounds down on desktop, but to nearest on mobile.

Take a Star Trek quote and replace any word with “sausage” "Let me introduce you to Ceti Alpha V's only remaining _indigenous_ sausage"

Finally the truth is out

A new Action Movie Landfill episode of the Oddjob pod is ready for your ears. In it, I invite @terryduffelen.com and @garyandrews.bsky.social to get as close as they dare to Michael Mann’s Heat. www.oddjobpod.com/2024/09/acti...

Watching some bonus Sunday morning cricket. Bangladesh about to get a famous test win over Pakistan.

Been thinking since we recorded this week's pod. What if Chelsea trained AlphaGo to play FM and it turns out that offering long contracts to loads of players turns out to be a winning formula?

As it's A-level results day, here's a classic from 2003...

The start of a new season with *gasps* a new theme tune!

Damned straight he does

On this week’s @soundoffootball.bsky.social Jan makes plan to stock up on bum flares, Terry overshares his holiday plans, and I stay out of trouble with the celebration police www.sofpodcast.com/2023/10/soun...
