I make music using old hardware and write about videogame history. I dabble with game development and making cool little web things. Was big on TikTok, apparently!

a few months ago one of the boys in our daugter's class decided to eat a peperami that had been randomly sitting in his bag for weeks. not surprisingly he soon had to run outside and throw up in the corridor...

It's incredible. You'd think the legacy of "Lets get rid of this red tape - its not like the water companies are going to start putting human shit in all our rivers!" would have put an end to flaunting this publicly, yet here the Tories are.

So if the humans aren't doing the moderation, who is going to be investigating closely in order to to work out the ways people are gaming the moderation policy?

Going out on a limb...but i don't suppose anyone out there has a Taito Landing Gear board they'd be willing to record footage from for me? :)

It might also have been a bit of a hard-sell when the Alien 3 games ignored the content of the film and were basically Aliens in paper-thin veneer.

Oh are you still playing through it? I should have another go really - it was yonks ago. Daughter press ganged me into playing it to completion (which was interesting when year 3 teachers over heard them talking about genocide 😬) Is deltarune on your list? Its a good followup!

It sounds like both shows had a similar atmosphere- really laid back and lovely. (In fact the Sonic gig was similar when I took our son a couple of years ago.) Our audience was really invested with the cack-handed gamer's attempts to solve the snowball puzzles :)

Was that the London matinee? Daughter and I were there in the evening (she dragged me) and I couldn't believe that Undertale was basically pulling Sonic Symphony numbers.

A funny thing about that story is that it's basically helped out daughter kick her 7 year Roblox. She says it's so infested with slop it's now impossible to find new games to play

I stepped away from my computer for a moment. When I returned, it was building something. I did not ask it to do this. We're not ready for what's coming

There's a new takeaway pizza shop near us that has clearly spent a big chunk of change on a large fibreglass sign...but the whole thing is shaped around an awful AI image they could have probably paid someone £30 to draw properly 😭

For PC games I'm wondering when it really stops being arcane. Even using 1995 as a bench mark, i wonder how many of the people who weren't there would be able to tell you Mechwarrior 2 was the game that made everyone want a 3d graphics card.

If chrome extensions are ok something like Bit Warden or Last Pass will store them for you when you create them (and allow you to use them between devices.) Can't help but think that, in a saner age, we'd have been irritated by 18 months of 'passkeys are coming' popups before we had to use them.

Ahh no problem at all :) (we were on the other side of this, with unreasonable neighbour trying to stop us from changing the style of our fence. It's our fence though, so lol)
010
FatNicK @fatnickindustries.com · 21/07/2026
Oh! Definitely worth checking the deeds then because normally they wouldn't have responsibility for that fence or its upkeep (so now they have stumped up 50% of the cost I'd say they're well within their rights to have the spikes taken off)
110
FatNicK @fatnickindustries.com · 21/07/2026
Have they checked the deeds to see whose fence it is? Generally you're responsible for one side (generally West if facing North) and neighbour the other. If it isn't their fence they have no right to do that.
