It's extremely dignified and makes perfect sense.

The sun is shining, I'm in a good mood and I'm swept along by the last two hours of it but today this feels like the ultimate form and purpose of this music. I wouldn't defend that to the death but I want to stress that this is not just some old tracks banged together.

@amias.net - do you know this? Because I think you may have similar feelings. โค๏ธ

The Deep Ark A powerful and deep world of sound filled with the vibrations of nature.

I am once again listening to thedeepark.com

More people should listen to this staggering 08:08 (hrs:minutes) mix, heavy on the Aphex, Warp and other peak early 90s electronica, carefully structured, de and re constructed so that it feels like a living ecosystem and not an exercise in nostalgia.

My elderly but faithful Mustek A3 scanner's skeuomorphic interface makes a little twinkling Chinese Bell type noise when it opens. It used to enrage me c.2004 but now it's so incredibly dated that I find it charming.

This is like the Edinburgh that turns up in my dreams sometimes! All stone staircases and jumbled, overlapping bridges. Fantastic painting.

#Adobe Creative Suite is like a real life family! Photoshop is the Mummy, Illustrator is the Daddy and Animate is a weird bastard child he had with Mummy's sister, After Effects. #notjoking

A drawing of ET waving at us on the cardboard packaging for a 1980s product called "E.T. Punch Balls"

As this is a repost of a Feb 2023 tweet of mine, found here https://x.com/DemonTomatoDave/status/1623464715077795840?s=19 , I have taken this photo from the No Context E.T. account who posted it there, and who originally I retweeted.

Never became as popular as "ET Phone Home" did it

I have found horror to be one of the most polarised genres in comics in terms of quality, and a few recent 'big names' really haven't landed for me but I love the excerpts I've seen of this and I look forward to reading it!

Did a comic about magpies, and had a mental block around colouring them until I remembered Batman. #superstitions #comics #illustration

ISO is the thinking man's WD40 :)
The Amiga vanished at some point but the disks remained - it's been weird looking at old 'demos' and things I made with a skill set which I have completely forgotten! I have however grabbed a lot of the samples I was using and stuck them into my Digitakt.

Anyway, very few people will ever care about this, but here it is. Big up the 3.5" floppy on this glorious sunny day.

I wouldn't risk this with someone else's data- ๐ŸŽต NEVER PUT ME IN YOUR DRIVE IF THAT SHIT EATS DISKS ๐ŸŽต- but it was another testament to the resilience of the format.

" OH NO" I thought "Alignment is everything. I've heard some bad floppies will only read on the drive that wrote them, such are the tolerances involved. I have NO chance of fixing this. But I'll try, as a last ditch method, to hotglue the head back onto the arm'.

THE DRIVE WORKS PERFECTLY AGAIN

This is better than taking the lid off your drive and cleaning the heads by flipping them up. I did this to my only drive and really struggled to get the head back down, bending and eventually separating the head from the arm.

And you should do this frequently if you're dealing with old disk as gunk and mould will accumulate on your heads. It can make an enormous difference to read success.

TIP: you can clean 3.5" floppy drive heads REMARKABLY EFFECTIVELY by taking a junk disk, slitting it open, discarding the media and taping a piece of coffee filter paper inside, across the window. Douse that paper in isopropyl, run a cleaning routine with your disk controller and kapow.
