I got an advert on Instagram the other day for a service that removes the recording indictor from the Meta glasses so I reported it and they just got back to me to say they’re not going to do anything about it 🙃
That’s what I’d like to know
Just 2 days to go before 'Videogame Preservation: Practices and Approaches: An Online Symposium'!

This has been sorted now. Another victory for whining on social media!

Logged in to my @octopus.energy account tonight to a very unpleasant surprise. This is the latest salvo in a billing dispute that’s been going on since October. I’m complaining on social media because after this I’ll have no recourse except to complain to Ofgem.
A carrot cake that has been iced untidily with butter cream and “40” candles
Made a slightly ugly but very tasty birthday cake for my darling @hannett.dev 💕💕🥳
Just saw an advert for AWS on Channel 4. Dot-com bubble vibes complete. RIP pensions.
Tired: the Nintendo switch calculator
Wired: the Austin Powers shagulator from the gbc game ‘Austin Powers: Oh, Behave!’
This is incredible, especially those synth stabs that make it sound like someone’s watching Terminator in the other room.
www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... I won’t pretend to know anything about Aussie politics but what the fuck lmao
Advert on the Financial Times asking if we’re in a bubble
I think this might be a sign that we are lol
Went to the replica bayeux tapestry today @readingmuseum.bsky.social and found the sections from my jumper 😌 🧶
My job this morning was to click a button 380 times because all the automation options were somehow more annoying

Buying a game or redeeming a key. Something that adds a game to your account.
Had to check activations too because I’m so old and decrepit now that my actual first purchases don’t show up there
Patient, sobbing: But Doctor, I AM Pagliacci!
ChatGPT: Apologies. I didn't realise when recommending Pagliacci's epic show to cure your depression that you were the genius himself. I'm impressed! With regards to your initial question, I can recommend seeing the Great Clown Pagliacci.
I love that it comes with a classic glow in the dark lego ghost
People ascribing thoughts and motivation to the output of LLMs is like a cat puffing up at a reflection of itself in the mirror
Push notification from the Journal app on my phone suggesting I might like to write a diary entry for “Eating at Burger King”
Don’t do me like this, Journal app.

Going to make a prediction that within 5 years it will be possible to get a mobile phone plan that doesn’t include a telephone number from the major providers and within 10 years not having a phone number at all will be quite common.
Screenshot of the NHS app showing that my height was recorded as 391cm
The good news is that they won’t deny care! I do not know how this happened but I do know it made it easier to get an early covid jab because my BMI was..abnormal.
Fortunato (coughing): You’re certain the Criterion Closet is down here
Montresor (picking up a trowel): Definitely. Have you thought about your picks yet
They may be gloating now but they have a sickness in their hearts that makes them miserable. Trans joy is inevitable 🏳️⚧️
Screenshot of a permissions dialog showing that the app ‘Shop’ wants permission to read the contents of emails sent to my Gmail account
The only reason Shopify wants this is to see what I’m buying from other companies. Bad taste. I just wanted order updates.
Diorama-rama at Simpsons Trivia never disappoints!
Penknife, oil and tools laid out ready for work.
Fully oiled and complete penknife
Fixed up my old penknife today. Cleaned it, oiled it, sharpened it and replaced some missing springs and bits. It’s over 25 years old now.
