Taken me far too long, but finally I have my work standing desk with all the wiring hidden and a single power cable going tidily down a 3D Printed magnetic drag chain/cable spine - already feels better walking in and seeing it.

Was just looking at trailers of Still Wakes the Deep thinking "that looks awesome" then remembered I'd sadly never be man enough to play it. Still not done Alien Isolation and a host of others I have.
Solutions on how to not be a wuss and play scary games please 😭

Well 5 month into being a dad I'm loving it, but have been absent from my usual haunts 😭 A health scare and trip to A&E Monday night means I've got my feet up resting this weekend, so time to catch up on goings on. Happy New year all!

Absolute blinder of a weekend at #CrashLive, thanks to the team for a great weekend. Seeing Malcolm Evans was a privilege and the Gremlin team. Big love to the @specnext.com team as well, huge momentum and buzz about the platform that's well deserved and already loved 👍

Great day at #CrashLive had to leave early gutted but back tomorrow! Wished I'd not procrastinated on that next with already having a 48 and 128, the N-GOs look interesting though, just not that same 🤔

It's not really news and I know a lot more than many to give me a head start, but Microsoft and Windows are screwed. Installing Linux Mint on old, solid hardware, complete with howdy / win hello facial recognition... it's free, it just works and will do everything needed for most home users 🤷♂️

Cracking day one at Play Expo Blackpool, cracking guests, good friends and it turned out to not be a total nightmare with the little human, who'd have thought 😂

Why is it when you put things you've been tripping over for months, in a safe place, you need them a week later but can never find them 😭 🤦🏻♂️

Just heard that Billy from #TheGameChasers is in ER with a brain tumour, has genuinely knocked me sideways. Him and the gang have brought so much laughter into the world it's hard to see someone get kicked so hard by life. No matter who you are and what you're going through, stay strong. #retro

After years of talking about it, finally bit the bullet on a portable AC unit, already having regrets watching the neighbourhood lights dim every time I turn it on 😭

Honestly can't tell you how much I've used this tip from @tenpencearcade.bsky.social lately. Even if I'm a complete dope for not knowing about I'm happy with that because it's a game changer 😂 #3dprinting
Use a screw and washer on one side and let the screw force pull the nut into the hex counterbore. Wind it in with an Allen key.

Deviating from my usual rubbish but, I'm in need of putting together a tidy mixing station and streamlining my life and mess! Sadly I don't know anyone that has done it personally using UK supplies? #aquarium #reef #saltwater #mixingstation #fishkeeping

Missed out on a really well looked after A600 today, the bay registered my bid too late so I missed out on a bargain, literally a mile down the road 😭 Saves me getting in trouble with the other half and it's not the A1200 I'm still after, but it would have been a nice pickup #amiga
