My new musical obsession Sean Wolcott has in the past put out a couple gorgeous DJ sets. Some of his own stuff, plus soundtracks with funk guitars, sweeping strings, quivering Mellotron vibes etc. Perfect uneasy listening for spooky season. youtu.be/OK42pikv98k?...

Getting haptic upgrades for my truck sim pedals for my birthday. And they said I wasn't cool.

Night driving in ATS while listening to an old Art Bell Ghost to Ghost is pretty damned cool.

The DLC hasn't hit Eastern USA or any of the states I've visited. It's still cool to see the ATS versions of Devil's Tower, the Hollywood sign or Sequoia National Park, to be cruising and randomly run into them, like they're part of the country's history and not simply dropped there by a developer.

Trying to get a clear view of Mount Rushmore from the car park without actually going in was an oddly authentic experience. The kids kept chanting "Heads heads heads!" As I circled past toll gates, peeking through trees. (American Truck Simulator)

Impressed by how a game I've had for ten years, that's worked for ten years across two gaming high-end PCs, has received a massive free technical upgrade and now no longer works.

Whatever crossovers the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe may hold pale in comparison to this, frankly.

With Rose Tinted Spectrum slowly glomping through the CITV archives there's only so much time to put out withering retrospectives on the period children's TV he hasn't reached yet. I'd never do it, but the prospect of drunkenly ripping into Kapatoo, Alfonso Bonzo and Watt On Earth has its appeal.

If the new Road Trip Atlas in American Truck Simulator could be expanded or modded to include write-ups about practically everything you see from the road I'd be very grateful.

One of the great things about American Truck Simulator is seeing signs for something weird, following those signs *to* something weird, then looking up the weird thing and discovering it is in fact, a real weird thing in the weird real world.

My kids often come home talking about the YouTube videos or movies they watched at school. Their education has been largely gamified and automated using tablets and Chromebooks. There's something very wrong here.

I don't expect teachers to be able to replicate one-on-one tuition in the classroom, but I have zero training, spent perhaps fifteen minutes a day on tuition, using textbooks and young-readers that are widely available and which were, crucially, aimed at teaching entire classrooms.

Campfire Burning @campfireburning.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
I'm proud of him for learning to read, but at the same time it's hard not to think of this level of automated education as either underestimating swathes of young students or a deliberate effort to under-educate.

At school, three weeks or so into first grade, the class is covering '--ck' words and teaching pupils to recognise the word 'friend'. The software replacing teacher-pupil interactions is having children match words: "Can you find the word 'out' among 'otu' 'tou' and 'out'?"

In the Summer of 2025 I was so disillusioned with my Kindergartner son's inability to recognise and recite the alphabet in its entirety that I took it upon myself to--with the assistance of a few inexpensive books--teach him to read. Today, he's reading The Boxcar Children.

Meta sent me a guide about what to do if your Threads posts "aren't working" and is this just how things are? Is this how everyone sees the world? If you're not "growing your brand" are you a failure? I just want to type shit and get it out of my system. I don't care about likes or follows.

In a month where Skyrim featured an Ikea Kallax, the Infinity Nikki x The Little Prince collaboration is still pretty weird.

People still use "flat screen TV" to denote level of luxury, as if the owner is pretending to be too sophistication for a good ol' CRT. Watch out, it's HD-Ready!

In Crimson Desert I do like how glad every Greymane is to see Kliff and friends. Sure they're not exactly the RDR2 gang, but they're so happy not to the only survivors.It reminds me of my kids returning to school after a long absence and their friends acting as if they've recovered from near death.

servings. It *is* a splurge, but it's a genuine game-changer in the world of coffee hardware. Presumably, as with the Fellow Stagg temperature-controlled kettle, in a few years every coffee hardware manufacturer will have equivalent (and cheaper) makers on the market. Something to watch out for!

Campfire Burning @campfireburning.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
but I don't really feel the need to refine it much further than the recipes I've found online (thus far I've avoided the ones it ships with). It makes great-to-phenomenal coffee, and it makes it consistently. Even more impressive, this morning's first batch brew is almost as good as its single

Campfire Burning @campfireburning.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
While I wouldn't say the Aiden has brewed the *best* cup of coffee I've ever tasted (yet), the "pour-over style" cups I've made thus far have been far more consistent than my own, while maintaining a similarly high standard-higher, in some cases. I'm still experimenting with different brew styles

This week I splurged on a Fellow Aiden; my wife works from home, and while I don't mind making her coffee (cold brew and lattes, usually) we recently enjoyed the convenience of having a carafe of batch brewed filter coffee either one of us could dip into over the course of a morning.

Campfire Burning @campfireburning.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
I've been making my own immersion, pour-over, and immersion/pour-over hybrid coffee for well over a decade now, without ever having a professional pour-over coffee to compare it against. I've had the odd cup of decent filter coffee, but for the most part the best coffee I've ever had has been my own
