iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Bloody love me a bossman shop. One near me sells Asian snacks and Buldak 3x noodles. Absolute godsend of a retail establishment.

Didn’t you work for them? I seem to remember you saying once maybe twice? 😉

The thing about space, the color of space, your basic space color - is it's black.

Nobody ‘works’ in digital marketing. They attend meetings that could have been emails and write buzz words on whiteboards and don’t wear socks.

Which is absolutely fine. Until you see what the OP is actually referring to, which is riding whilst also holding a phone in their hand watching insta reels or having FaceTime calls.

It’s a brilliant, fantastic journey into the mind of a man, a legend. For anyone even a bit into games. Also a great insight into the world of gaming mags and journalism.

Of course, I’d love to buy from a bricks and mortar shop, but they can’t be bothered to curate their stock properly. “We can order one in. It’ll be three weeks though.” Fuck off.

A law needs to be passed that all future games and hardware use only SID and/or YM2612 chips.

@mirandakeeling.com Observed a moment on the bus. Two very young men with fishing gear got on and sat adjacent to an eccentric woman in her 70s with a little dog. Absolutely no Venn diagram crossover anywhere near. Somehow a conversation began about freshwater licences. Then the lady had to alight.

Teenagers who are actively into politics are just fucking weird.

Try the NCI. Volunteer coast watch organisation. www.nci.org.uk Also, you’ve earned a follow as I’m also a fan of the stuff in your bio, especially horror and exploitation movies, and very specifically blaxploitaton and cynical 70s sci fi.

Very common term in TV writing, especially in the days of serials of old . The creator/showrunner/producer would provide detailed descriptions of characters and settings that guest writers and directors should adhere to.

Question about the Mister Multisystem range. Have they, or will they have in future, the ability to use original game carts, or even discs?

The problem word here is ‘collectors’. The people who buy as assets to put on a shelf with no intention of watching, playing, listening or taking of the shrink wrap.

Walter’s guitar sounds so good on this. Try Donald Fagen’s Nightfly album next.

Being bigger would work in their favour you’d think. More room for sponsors logos on their outfits.

RGB Scart on a nicely calibrated CRT is unbeatable. Scart could handle up to 1080p but HDMI won out so it wasn’t widely implemented.

Where I live on Portland, there are 5 pubs, a social club, and a bar, all within walking distance of my house. All but one are exclusively wet. They are all thriving, all have live music and events and it’s fantastic! The only one to charge £6+ for a pint is the food pub where tourists go.

I think more of people who say they like Steely Dan. It means they’ve got a brain decent enough to appreciate the musical and lyrical complexities of their songs.
