Not gonna lie, this escalation of the Greenland situation with the Mad American Emperor is genuinely starting to scare me. His actions’ consequences were mostly Over There, now it’s getting closer and closer to Over Here.

Damn, I just watched the funniest video (ICE, a Viking and a bath tub) but I’m not reposting because it’s obviously #aislop. Couldn’t let it go without comment, though 😆

I love how when you zoom in on the @logistics bot pictures there’s almost always another vessel somewhere in the shot, often right off on the horizon. It shows just how busy those shipping laws are.

I started stripping down a PS5 Dualsense controller yesterday to replace the drifting sticks in it with Hall effect ones. iFixit says it’s a “difficult” repair and they weren’t kidding 😳

We're looking to spend 2-3 days in that London over the February half term (between the 16th and 20th) to do museums and galleries. Thinking of getting an AirBnB but never done it before. Any recommendations on areas to look for/avoid?
I imagine driving there would be expensive due to parking […]

STOP.
We have a major news story in our house. It's been building up for a few days and this afternoon came the denouement.
It's the story of a banana.

Ooo, Tangerine Dream in the soundtrack for 9-1-1 this week. Nice surprise!
Love On A Real Train is an odd choice, though, for anyone who remember Risky Business 😀

I can’t recommend this app highly enough for people who are constant being recommended music, or hearing things they want to listen to more later. It’s been an absolute godsend for me 😎

Just look at this #liquidass crap, flickering away to itself on #macos Tahoe. I’m not touching the keyboard or mouse, no user input at all, and no video playing anywhere

Lately I have noticed that when you purchase a ticket you don’t get a static PDF/PNG anymore.
Increasingly often, you get a .pkpass file, which is supposed to be opened in wallet apps (like Google Wallet or any 3rd-party).

How is this Robert Jenrick thing making headline news?
The guy’s still a racist grifter twat, and he’s still in a political party full of other racist grifter twats. Very little has changed 🤷♂️
