Was talking about old Psygnosis stuff with @shammountebank.bsky.social and remembered one of the producers there had an Apple PowerBook Duo with a Duo Dock, which at the time (1996) was the dogs danglies!

Font licensing is a legal minefield. From the "freelancer trap" to the nuances of Section 54, we break down why ‘borrowing’ a typeface isn’t just a moral issue - it’s a business risk.

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

Get on board, Starmer, you fence-sitting cuck.
The entire foundation of our foreign policy for decades - the idea that the UK can act as a transatlantic bridge - is laid bare as nothing more than a vain illusion. The choice before us is Europe or irrelevance. I expect the British public will be ahead of their leaders in grasping this.

Picked up my Switch copy of Earthion from @sdxgames.bsky.social whilst in Japan.

Sublime packaging as usual, SDX releases remind me of the joy of importing video games in the early 90s.

Yaanited v Citeh.

Win-win game for me.

As much as I hate City, I do love seeing Utd get mullered. And if Utd do win, great to see Citeh drop points.

Met a musical hero of mine, the 16-Bit musician Toshiaki Sakoda (Recca, Aleste, Spriggan) and purchase his CD release. He was kind enough to sign it for me too.
