Netflix has nearly 300 million subscribers. They have just put my price up by £1 a month. Sooooo if they have put everybody’s up by the same that’s… well… and then an extra per year of ? You don’t need me to work it out. There better be a new Tiger King at the end of this…
It’s super annoying when two of the four packages on the way for review get stuck in customs with fees to pay and then you have to wait for a letter telling you what need to pay before you can even begin to sort it. Especially when I need one of the ones that stuck for the two I have to be useful
First article started dropping about Benign Land’s launch, this one seems to really get it! 🎯
Absolutely no problem. Always on the look out for things that are different. All the very best with it.
Had a lot of fun reviewing the #dwarf3 smart telescope from DwarfLab. If only it wasn’t cloud all the fkn time. readwrite.com/dwarf-3-smar...
Sad, sad news. A lovely guy and a key games industry legend for so long here in the UK.

Missus got us @phlaimeaux.bsky.social tickets for Xmas and I remembered I interviewed him as a 25 year old for a new comedy website back in 2000! Yes 2000 dot com losers. Found that interview (ish) on way back machine :) web.archive.org/web/20010227...
Can’t wait :)
🔴Two-Tier Reporting: When Climate Protesters Slow Ambulances They’re Vilified, So Why Are Wealthy Farmers Given a Free Pass?
Media outlets rushed to condemn climate change campaigners as “middle class” protesters causing “chaos” while ignoring greater disruption by millionaire landowners

Not posted much for a while so here’s something I’ve been up to. I took this photo. From my garden. In Swinton. Technology is mad when it’s not ruining the world. #dwarf3 #astrophotography #andromeda
Feel your pain kidda
Congratulations you are the two millionth email I have had about FKN BLACK FRIDAY this week. Unbearable.
Y’know what. Looking at the price of certain retro games on eBay, they can’t possibly sell surely. Nobody is paying 900 quid for Wings on the Amiga are they? I’ll give you 25 quid mate for old times sake. that’s my limit #retrogaming
And also. Is it just me finding the irony that on the week we finally all move house to a new social network, the world gets obliterated by nuclear war. I feel as though we may have left it a bit late.
Prob not going to just spam this with work-related stuff but many people here may not know what I do for a living or where you can read me. So here. Just for you readwrite.com/playing-the-... #stalker2 #videogames #gaming
You ever think about how maddening it must've been to have seen a giraffe before cameras? Coming back to Blighty trying to tell people about this totally implausible creature with no evidence of its existence.
When our daughter was little she told me to go into the garden because it was full of slags and butterflies. Never ran outside so fast in my life.
I used to love Foursquare. Heady days.
I feel like we all just picked Bluesky and didn’t even give MILF Messenger a chance
We have to win this one kidda.
This is liberating af going through all my following/followers on X and starting from scratch. Highly recommend Sky Follower Bridge while it's still working.

Should prob post some cool stuff. Here’s some pics I took with the new #dwarf3 smart telescope. #astrophotography
Are we all staying here this time and not just for two weeks before going back to that PoS? #twitter #x
Gonna restore another piece of 80s ‘Tat’ in the bg this week. Not computer-related as such but was hugely influential in my teenage life. Initial look inside it’s grim and mechanically doomed but fixed the first part I wanted working with a little grease. #retrocomputing #retro
Right Bluesky. I’ve been neglecting you for shitshow elsewhere. What’s changed?
Updated to iOS 17 beta. Two mins later my phone feels hot. This might be a terrible mistake.
It was either that or my fave picture of Aoife with a sore finger.
I wanted my first post on Bluesky to be iconic. I thought long and hard what it would be. So here’s me with Basil Brush.
