42 M pan,bi,gay... something, bald fat dog!
Total mess and trying to scrape what ever I can to get by.
Hi...
Also while I was on the train this week, I was listening to Queen greatest hits 2... and while loving the music again, I couldn't help but but feel some of the music has been spoiled by really shitty cheap furniture adverts over the years!

Curious... According to this arrival e scooters are illegal. And yet loads of cities have a e scooter higher scheme....

Can't help but think some amount of false information on the law here.

Two illegal e-bikes were seized as part of a targeted action by police in Falmouth.

New Illustration: "We Beat 'Em Before..."

Taken from a British WW2 poster, the original features a WW1 German soldier at the top. I just swapped it for the Nazi soldier it had at the bottom.

I guess I'm just tired of being barely accepted or put up with as long I'm only at arms length. Etc.

I really don't know why I fucking bother.
I need to stop pretending I have friends.

After leaving Barnstaple at 11:30 on a train. I just got back to my place in Retford at 18:50!

That was over 7 hours travel....... Which ended on a 20 to 30 mimute walk back from the local station.... I'm fucked!

May e I've missed the mark here...... And maybe this is controversial. But I think the whole Larian is using AI thing is blowing up all out of proportion.

I agree gen AI is shit in many respects. But as the CEO has said. Its only been used in the very earliest stages of basic block concepting.

Last morning in Devon. Couple hours at the office then back on the train to Retford! 6 to 7 hour journey ahead of me -.-

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... much as I go on about the BBC. They were fools for apologising and fools for sacking...
The edit... Wasn't doctoring the speech it was removing tons of staff between the important bits.
Trump has no basis in this claim but of course he filed in Florida....

Is this it? The begining of the bubble going pop? That super slow mo of the first break!

Affordable GPUs and ram on the market as there's going to be over stock.

So went to bed soon after 9 exhausted. Fell asleep well enough but kept waking up through the night in all sorts of pain.
Mainly my back is being really bad at the moment....

I really need to see a doctor about it :/

Watching a little TV in the hotel. And OMFG it's grim!
So glad I don't have atv licence or watch TV back home.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Eeeesh because of the delay I have 20 mins to get to paddington from kings cross .... Hopefully there's no delays on the tube.
December 14, 2025 at 11:17 AM
That's a good start. It's a good thing I'm meant to have an hour to transfer from kings cross to paddington

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

I'm struggling to focus today... No really... My eyes are struggling to keep focus D:

Got to the bottom of the stm32 problem. Turned out the wrong variant of the same chip was installed a BOM error. Same model number with Q on the end. The main different the Q has an internal vreg. And swaps one of the GND pins to VDD... Shorted itself to ground there :(

Oh joy full on work panic attack now, We im going down to the office on sunday (in devon) and I just recelved the new major project pcb, and instantly its broken. The STM32 is shorting direct to ground. I must have introduced a error in the design on this, what was meant to be the final

Another rough night. Got to sleep quick but kept waking up.
Even had another mortality panic attack in the middle of one of these wake ups.

damn :/ I nearly decided to buy a few mugs from In Otter News... As frankly I love the art and jokes.... and its cute.

But... at 22 quid +5 quid shipping per mug... I cant justify it D:

Not going to blame them or anything no shade on them. I just cant justify that price on a printed mug :(
