I may have just purchased a 2011 MacBook to install Linux onto.

This is off the back of crying real tears over failing badly to get it on a Tegra ARM powered Acer Chromebook. That was just hell from the start. Gave up and put it to eBay for pennies not to send it to ewaste.

What’s up with TV show presenters talking to an imaginary person/director to the side of the camera instead of talking to the viewer. It’s sodding annoying, noticed it with MasterChef years ago but now it’s spread to Wheeler Dealers, is nothing sacred?

Thank you Primark for providing a prize at checkout after suffering the pain of shopping in your store for over an hour.

You redeemed yourselves.

Surgery is open

Bootleg cassette of The Clash-London Calling

The tape is very tight, will not play and will not free itself from the tension when manually rewinding several times.

Let’s see what is going on inside.

Good morning 😊

Yes, Sir Clive hated that the Spectrum was popular because of the games and a C5 could never go this fast, but I had a lot of fun making this tribute to Sir Clive Sinclair ZX Spectrum 👍

ATTENTION TO ALL MY PRESS AND STREAMING FRIENDS: As we lead in to the release of Demonschool, now is the time to get me on your podcast to talk about things, do interviews, etc. I can talk about things other than my game, but also hopefully my game. Hit me up if you want conversations like the below
Why delay a game that’s nothing like Silksong to avoid its surprise release? Because for indies, there’s just too much riding on each individual launch to chance it. Demonschool creative director @brandon.insertcredit.com explains:

The return of the poo pumpkin

Same as last year, will hide a remote fart machine inside and activate it when people pass by.

Seemed to get a good response last year.

A few months back our plum tree went crazy, and I took a load into work for my colleagues.

One colleague then gave me a chili plant, one I gave to my nephew. The remaining plant just gave me its first offering.

Really chuffed!
