Last years FOMO was too much too handle, so guess who has just booked to return to DefCon again next year (BTW 30k points is just £390 right now, so that makes the flights £705, not the usual £1200 !)

Second day at Sheffield Ice arena. However, watching Knights today will be a little easier than yesterday across the road at the Utilia!

First ball hockey training session with Leeds Rams, first injury Still, I mugged my son during our first sift against each other, then expertly used my wrist to stop a Team GB U18 from scoring (I didn’t just get in the way, and paid the price, honest)

I wait 18 months for this to finally ship, and Evri leave it in a bush in the garden whilst I’m on holiday! (It’s a MiSTer FPGA in a PS1 style case …. Much more suited for the living room that my DE-10 MiSTer)

Well that’s sub-optimal. Especially as it includes several grands worth of utterly irreplaceable #Spezial /// gear!

Went up on Torrisholme Barrow for the first time since I was a kid, at ai don’t think I’ve ever seen the view to clear. Ingleborough, Clougha, Williamson’s Park, Heysham Power Staton, Morecambe Bay. All visible from one spot

Most years I’d be at defcons linecon introducing people to Benedictine. I’m not there this year, but I’ve just spotted it in smokestack, so I’ve just introduced these two amazing people to it!

1st day of the week long Bradford Bulldogs hockey camp. I suspect he’ll look a little differently next Saturday! Glad he’s finally ditched the Crocs for sliders (even if they are mine!)

I came back from EMF camp to a mostly dead main daily-driver PC. A week later not only do I have even more screen real estate, I’m gaming at a solid 60fps for the first time, well, ever probably (at least on my own PC hardware)

One thing nobody tells you about running a conference, the sheer amount of stuff you amass in the run up, and this is with most of the bulky ‘for participants’ stuff (the stuff we have 400 of each of) being at Grom’s!

I did say I’d post about my side projects more often, well for a few months they all get put aside, whilst I become one of the team behind BSides Leeds. We’re just one week away, so time to go and rescue the BSides organisers essentials box from the loft!

Yesterday he came from Hockey Camp saying ‘I worked hard today but didn’t get MVP, so tomorrow I’m gonna work my ass off and make sure I get it’ A few minutes ago he just posted this to Insta. So proud of the little guy these days!

As much as I adore the class of Aspect, when I’m over here without the family, I do like to sneak off to Morecambe’s best sea-front greasy-spoon cafe for a change!

U14s Ball Hockey Done. 1 Goal (on video for once), 1 MVP award (kinda ‘man of the match’), and 2 games in goal. Now time for a spot of lunch before doing it all again in the u16s!

Having Paul Chuckle do the puck drop for GB vs Italy is fantastic, and brilliantly British is every way!

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 02/05/2026

I don’t have a GB Ice Hockey jersey for today’s game against Italy, so it’s time to bring this match-worn beauty out of retirement, given Archie got a late call-up to the squad

At @yorcybersec’s excellent Cybrewary evening, with @dc151.org ‘s own @gr4y-r0se.bsky.social doing an excellent talk on data apps. Great evening, great talk, great people! Always love this event! A massive Thank You to YorkCyberSec, T3C and Horizon3.ai for making it possible!

Riffling though my dads vinyl collection, I now understand why early @lancashirehotpots.bsky.social stuff felt comfortable and familiar to me (There is also some Brian Dewhurst stuff in there, which Dickie may be one of the few people to remember)

Amazon excelled themselves with this delivery, which was left on its end on a rain soaked doorstep, without the driver thinking to even ring the doorbell. Then I open it to find the packer has the same attention to detail as the delivery person (no I didn’t flip the box)

3d printer friends, help me diagnose this misprint (result like this are common) One corner of larger prints seems to always lift up (yes, the bed is always level checked before printing) On seeming identical sections, some seem to be smushed Prints spaghetti well into print.

Hey Walkers, I always love crisps, but this isn’t an advent calendar. It’s a 24 pack of crisps with a lot of unnecessary packaging! ‘Calendar’ kinda implies some kind of date component. You can’t just stick 24 things in a box and call it an advent calendar!

Rock Night at Leeds Knights tonight and no need for fancy dress, I just needed to riffle through all that stuff I’ve been hoarding since the 90s, to create a 53yrd old version of how I looked in my first year at Uni (before I found Madchester & Carter)

I know to a lot of you this is like ‘huh, I did that 3 times already this week’ but I just remixed my first STL and it didn’t just print fine, it fulfilled the purpose I designed it for! I bet even my Ice Hockey friends can work out what’s it for (it a remix of a stick topper)

No ball hockey tonight, instead we’re watching Knights at Steeldogs. I can’t remember the last time he had an entire day without skates (or some kind) on his feet or a stick in his hand.

This ridiculousness of 80s cabling leads to me doing some deeply uncomfortable things. The red connector is a 240v feed. The white connector (same connector, different colour) just goes to a power switch. So I made a switch bypass which would be VERY bad in the wrong socket!

Kel has found a new way to ensure all my money goes to puckstop! (In his defence, he sold a load of toys to pay most of it himself …. But I know, skates as just the start of the expense)
