iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Cleaned my son's PC, and now it won't turn on. Tried a shit-tonne of troubleshooting to no avail, so now it's at the repair shop. My wallet is patiently waiting to be set on fire

I just finished Record of a Spaceborn Few by Becky Chambers. It's the third of the Wayfarers series, and my least favourite so far. It was an easy read, but too disjointed and meandering for my liking—you can tell they changed editor halfway through

Now they're talking about stripping Barcelona's titles because of the Negreira case (bribing referees). Between this and the Man City case, Pep Guardiola is going to have no titles left

I really do need to get my knees checked out. I've barely even walked today, and they're on fire. The left one keeps giving way and locks every now and again. I mean, the right does too, but much less frequently. But aside from that, my back, my neck, and my feet, I'm doing okay

Played some good games last night: Flutter (the vintage stock market one), Citadels, and Sea Salt & Paper. I couldn't recover from a slow start on Flutter, but I won both of the others. Two out of three ain't bad

I got high and watched that Twilight Zone episodes where the guy had a stopwatch that could stop time (5x04). Then I spent the rest of the night wondering what I'd do. I settled on robbing casinos and sleeping more. I know, real big-brain shit

33 years ago today, the Stranger stepped onto the dock of Myst Island for the first time. We can still hear the water splashing against the pilings.

The dock of Myst Island from the original version of the game. A wooden dock ends at a spiral staircase that leads up to giant gears on a hillside. A ship is sunk in the water on the right, and parts of buildings are visible on the left.

I'm not much of a Pokémon person, but my son is & trying to buy him cards at retail prices has been nigh on impossible the last couple of years, and I refuse to pay scalpers for anything. So it warms the cockles of my heart to see so many of them having a full meltdown about the recent set. Enjoy!!

I've made peace with the grey boarders, but Pokémon needs to go back to using sets' symbols on the cards. This three letter nonsense can go in the bin

I'm enjoying A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers, but I'm still gutted that it isn't about the Wayfarer crew from the first novel. I mean, I'm sure the same will happen again, but I really connected to those characters and just assumed we'd get more.

Phil @unrequitedpud.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I just finished The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. So that's it, no more Wayfarer crew? A Closed and Common Orbit, and the other two books in the series all follow different groups of characters? I'm excited to expand the universe, but I'm going to miss those guys
