iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Home to Roost, with John Thaw and Reese Dinsdale, upscaled. biggestfans.co.uk/forums/index...

Just under 200 000 views for this upscale. That's more than some TV shows get these days. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzU6...

Inspired by Cinderella, probably. #lego fb.com/rustydustybricks

Angelo's - written by and starring Sharon Horgan, upscaled. biggestfans.co.uk/forums/index...

I'd forgotten all about that show. I'll need to keep an eye out for recordings.

All other non-live musical presentations? BANNED. CDs, records, cassettes, mp4s, and even your fancy effin FLACs are for the chop. #ifitsnotliveitsnotreal #dontpaytheorgangrinder

Automated fairground organs? That's right... BANNED. #payanorganist

I've got a "hoarding of downloads of BBC radio comedy from which I've removed all announcements before and after, thus saving hundreds of hours over a lifetime" problem. The problem is that I can't fit them all in one screenshot! wak-wak-oompf.

There's already been ructions and splits in the BAN SYNTHESISERS movement, but it's all good. We just started another group.

That's up there with the other gamer guy who uses SKAG as his referral code.

It went for £221 inc postage. That's £10 less than I paid for the 6700xt which I'm using now, and which is about 45% more powerful. With the manufacturing now all going to AI, I think these prices will keep going up. So, game developers will have to work to these limits, which is probably good.

The Remote Control world is quite something these days.

If you're anti-ai then you must be anti synthesisers too, because they're taking the jobs of real musicians. I say bring back the string section! We must spend thousands on real musicians, or we're not allowed to release anything. Money must control art. Let's start a campaign! #banthesynths

Layers are key. Write that down.

I'm not saying that tiktok shows my uploads to a very specific amount of people. The numbers are.

I hear you're a big fan of the old #zombies? Well allow me to introduce you to my highly-saturated INTELLECTUAL MONTAGE* dedicated to the comics which are all about those shambling undead bastards. Someone once told me that and I swore I'd use it in conversation. 31 years later here we are.

This is crazy talk. I bought 2 of these cards new for £160 each about 3 years ago. They are good cards, but still going at £204 with two days to go is quite something.

Those ruddy shiny hackers!

Sounds like someone needs a Snickers.

Could be the Atari 5200, from 1982.

That could a Vectrex, which had overlays for the screen, though the only console I can think of which had overlays for the controllers was the Atari Jaguar.

I saw the first image and googled it. It's a common theme. Nice.

if you want to copy a youtube playlist to your own account, you can do it by going to the playlist on music.youtube.com You click on the three dots then "save to playlist". You can create a new one, or even merge that playlist to ones you've already created.

Oh, you just want to "have a game of Jet Set Willy"? Well, you'll first have to pick one of these dozens of versions. Which is the right one? Well you better go and find out what the tags mean. And then pick the version which your emulator uses. Where are you going?

You might think this is an Ai image. It's a Segway with a Vespa front end.

I've started posting on my old forum again. I stopped using it around 2015, but I renovated it this year and it's looking pretty nice again. First new post added to Nature Photos forum.couchtripper.com/viewtopic.ph...

Crikey. Another sold for £74. Alexei Sayle fans... or HITLER FANS?

This is one of the lowest quality preview images I've ever seen on the BBC site. It looks like something I did about 20 years ago. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/serie...

Speedway sidecars with both people steering? What could possibly go wrong?

"Let's make this radio ad for tea!" "Ok, have you got a high quality slurp ready?" "No, that's just hack bollocks which pisses off anyone who hates slurpers." "But we've been doing that for decades!" "Just say "It's a nice cup of tea, blended by pros"" "It'll never work!" "Shut ya face"

The Tales of Para Handy. Stars Gregor Fisher and Rikki Fulton. I've never watched it, but it's in the queue for upscaling now. They're 48 minute episodes, so I'm guessing it's comedy drama. I've no idea.

Playboy is relaunching as a quarterly. For £30 a pop, if you'll pardon the great pun.

oh no, they're tied together on top of a massive bomb!

Watching Die Hard 3 now. It's a much better quality of pish. And I just saw this bit.

The same Fujitsu film scanner model as in the first post, now going for £9950. Check the PC it runs with... There's no great technology here. It's the moving parts to advance the frames of the film which are the big deal. But does this one even do that?

000

Dutch hardcore Simpsons? Makes sense to me.

021

Pompeii by Robert Harris is surprisingly good for the feeling of the time. Lots of good details about the people and the way they lived. It's probably more a "day in the life of some Romans" with a story nailed on.
