Bird Mum. Gamer. Procrastinator.
Trans but that's just the tip of who I am.
I'm also trying to write a book that might turn into a series.
Although putting the soundtrack to Space Pirate Captian Harlock onto a disc was a pain last night.

My minidisc recorder kept draining its batteries so it took 3 hours.

But I have a 3v power supply on the way to stop that happening again.

If the poor recorders power circuit will cope.

Also had this cute minidisc player come in the other day.

Unfortunately it's remote wasn't working properly but it has its original box, stand and instructions.

After a little bit of greasing the player works perfectly.

I love it.

Minidisc for the win!

Today is a plumbing day.
And for a change it's not mine!

(Sorted out all my foof plumbing yesterday. LOL.)

We have had toilet issues where the fill valve overflows into the loo.

And wilts my purse at the same time.

So I've had to fit a stop valve and a new hose.

How pissed was this spider last night!?!

This week I was supposed to be on holiday....

So I've been bloody ill all week!

This will be the third week of cold, flue, IBS, sinusitis, migraine and fatigue.

I am so pissed off.

That being said...

I got Rockbox onto the 30GB Ipod today and it plays Doom rather well too. 🤣🤣🤣

Guess who is in bed being ill again.

YAY!

So it's Metallica and Procreate.

Well... there I was... playing Warframe on the Xbox...

When everything went blank and there was a horrid smell of burning electronics.

So of course the last I wanted to be doing on a Monday morning was taking an Xbox to bits to check what had blown up.

And the PSU.

Both look OK but....

Stop doing this to me Ordis!!

Or atleast give me a ticket for my PC account! 😝😝😝

The Cuntmas tree is up.
I think Jeff likes it.
It was a bit of a competition to see how much shit we could put on it. LMAO!

It has a ton of our favourite decorations and nothing matches.

It's a work of art. 🤣🤣🤣

Nasu decided his girlfriend Mushroom was a nice warm place to sit.
Shame she was in her nest trying to lay an egg at the time.

You can just see her peeking out.

Also found another Fitbit for the Fitbit god!

I have a running collection of these.

Apparently Google took over the company and then killed it.

So if you don't have an original APK of the software for it you maybe screwed. But don't quote me on that. 🤪

This particular one originally cost £175+!

I got this cute little tablet/pc thing out the bin yesterday.
Got it all reset while I worked.

And now I'm home the dammed thing is struggling to update.
It's been at 0% for an hour.

It's a real shame as it's such a nice device.

I don't want to mess it up with a Linux install.
November 28, 2025 at 10:34 AM
Oh. By the way....
There maybe hope for this poor little minidisc player/recorder.

I got it going some how... until it didn't.

But the likely cause is a cracked cog that you can get a replacement made.

The hard part is installing it. 🤨

I'd like to get it going as it takes MD's like a cart.
November 26, 2025 at 11:25 AM
Every time I go on this drafted machine, it updates. FFS!

Bloody Hexbox!

Also they are doing that age verification thing.
Even though I pay the bills on it.

But so far it's worked out well.
I don't have to put up with the inane chatter you get with online gaming. 😝
November 26, 2025 at 9:55 AM
What's this bullshit UK?
I've been on Steam for atleast 15 years.
They have my birthday.
And you want me to add a credit card so I can buy my adult subject/orientated games??

Grow the fuck up!

This afternoon it's sailing the seven seas for Saturn games while cleaning up this mother board.

And this came with the biggest, most fuck off heatsink I have ever come across!

This is a monster!

Someone loves overlooking me thinks.

Anyway... hopefully I can use this as a server/NAS. 😆💖
November 14, 2025 at 1:12 PM
So what will it be tonight?

Papa Nier saves the world or Bob The Builder fends off a vampire motorcycle?

Who knows? You decide!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Today's project was sorting out harddrive storage.

Which resulted in a hotswap bay being put into the PC for six harddrives to go in.

Now I can sort my files without having to rely on dodgy USB caddies that always seem to crash out under load.

Even with a powered hub.

Let's hope this works. 🤣💖
November 14, 2025 at 11:14 AM
Aaaaaand the Saturn is doing its stuff.

Now I have to make some bin/cue files of the games I have for the Saroo cart I have.

PAL EU games are fine to just pop in and play but my Evangelion and other games need to be ripped and put onto the cartridges SD Card.

So I know what I'm doing all week. 😝
November 13, 2025 at 9:01 PM
After a long fight I have a semi working Sega Saturn! 😁💖

I had to replace the PSU so I thought "I know. I'll be clever. I'll get a Clean Power PSU from Retro Six"

A good move but there are no instructions.

So after alot of trial and error it's running.
November 13, 2025 at 7:00 PM
Well... I found treasure in the bin a few weeks ago.

An original Xbox!!

And I haven't had to do anything to it either! 🤣💖

It plays games and makes noises.
I just had to get a controller and AV lead for it.

I'm going to get a USB adapter for it and see if it will load a different front end. 😜💖
November 10, 2025 at 2:26 PM
YAY! Day 2350 of Warframe brought me rivers! 😁💖

Now which pack to choose? 🤔
November 2, 2025 at 6:10 PM
Well that's not very good if its true. 🤔
October 21, 2025 at 7:41 PM
I now have an ex display pink flamingo in remembrance of Max Pain!

Unfortunately some cunt ripped the cable out of it but it will be a simple fix with a bit of solder and some heat shrink.

And I know they did it deliberately because I said that I wanted it.

Well fuck you. It works still. 🖕😈
October 14, 2025 at 6:27 PM
I'm really not feeling well today.
Intact haven't felt well for a while.

So a very slow day is happening today.

Might be just me and a mug of tea and lunch time omelette.

If this ladybird doesn't drink all my tea first!
