Please, Apple, do this one right.
Neuromancer by @greatdismal.bsky.social finally gets a TV series. Could be amazing, but expectations will be high from all of us who read these books when we were young.

Count Zero was a personal fave.
Apple TV's New Cyberpunk Show That Was Called 'Unfilmable' Is the Sci-Fi Event of the Decade
One book-to-screen adaptation that was once thought impossible is finally coming to Apple TV next year--and we couldn't be more excited.

Just finished a Neo Geo Pocket IPS screen mod after finding a boxed console for parts. The touch sensor to change the palette colours doesn't work, but it's still so much better than a non-working screen, or a non-backlit one.

Hahaha, right?! Or what about mandatory disclosures for the discrepancy between the salaries of the CEO and their lowest paid worker? That would be so funny, right?! Let’s do it as a funny joke!!!

I am a podcast literalist. Existing in other formats in parallel is fine, but if it doesn't have an RSS feed with enclosures, it's straight up not a podcast.

Spotify exclusive? Only on YouTube? Not a podcast.

Podcasting isn't a format or a presentation style. It's a file delivery mechanism.

The Spanish government mounted a FANTASTIC pro-democracy campaign timed to the 50 anniversary of Franco's death that enumerates all the FREEDOMS Spaniards enjoy that they didn't under Franco. It especially targets young people who didn't live through the dictatorship.
