Gamers never change. Went to reddit to see is there was a solution to a sound level bug on the (massive FREE) Witcher remaster. The game is otherwise playing perfectly for me and the sound thing can be easily worked around. Walked in to find it like this...

I once had an NFT fan pitch the idea of a NFT game to me and couldnt understand that I wouldn't choose to play a game that could maybe make me money over one that I was interested in playing

Well that's my very rare episode of Strictly watched. It was as predictable as ever and a bunch of people slagged off Gavin & Stacey being even mentioned, so that'll be me done with it for another few years. (I do remember the Darren Gogh year so am entitled to be over it all by now.)

Reading about Booker judging in the 70s-80s. I often think there’s a savagery to a lot of online discourse but publishing was quite a rough and tumble world in 1983 (read to the end)
The archive also unveils the pitfalls of using an Autocue: in 1983, the novelist Fay Weldon was chairing the judges, and used an Autocue to give a speech at the ceremony that mercilessly attacked the publishing industry. “We are the raw material of your trade. You do tend to forget it, you know. You forget that books need writers: that there are very few of us; that we are quite tough, but perhaps not as tough as you think,” Weldon said. “I think you’d do without us altogether if you could.”

Weldon had intended to end on a softer note, but the ceremony’s power was cut by trade-union action at 10pm and her autocue went black. In the archive, she recalls, “just before I got to the 'you are all honourable men' bit. And so because you are reading it, you don't know where you are, so I just sat down and said, 'That is really all I have to say.' So they didn't get that bit. And they were so incensed. And the head of the publishing union came over and hit my agent. It was a wonderful evening!”

Seems weird the whole "are you ready for war if it happens" thing the government is pushing when clearly we've been at war via misinformation, funding far right hate groups, attacking British institutions and so forth for ages. A better question is "when is the government going to do something?"

A bit devastated to see an ableist slur used casually in the otherwise human-friendly @chucktingle.bsky.social's Bury Your Gays. I understand its not as offensive in the US, but surely the UK editor should have picked it up? It's so easily swappable that it could have been changed in a few seconds.

"Your brains stop developing at age 25" was a press misrepresentation of a study. They wanted to see if brains continued to develop after adolescence, so the study was capped at age 25. A later study with a wider subject pool showed that brains are ALWAYS developing our whole lives.
