The 7th of October 1991 might not seem much of an important date to you, but it marked the change in video quality of Brookside. It was episode 1003. Why not episode 1000? Because somewhere along the line there was a bastard who caused a delay.

I just came across a method to get google gemini to overload the system it's running on. That shouldn't be possible. I stopped it in time because I could see what was coming. I wonder if they give out bounties?

While my site's offline I'm using some time to take frames from Digger videos and giving them an oil painting effect. I'll add these to the site when it's back. You'd be surprised how little art there is about DIGGERS.

This audiobook of 36 half hour lectures doesn't stop being interesting. The sort of facts you'll be able to keep in your quiver for the next time some bastard is talking out of their arse.

Forza Horizon 2, running at 1440p and 60fps. It's like a brand new game, but it's from 2014. Now we don't need the Xbox One cracked, we just need the exclusives recompiled. Lovely stuff.

If they showed listener numbers to these, how many do you reckon would get over 5000 per show? Maybe Chris Evans. 90% of podcasts are pish and mirrors.

Been listening whilst tidying up some work this afternoon. Vaguely remember the original Alan Turing Prom but the reworking LP is an *incredible* piece of work, really stops you in your tracks. Outstanding radio via @stuartmaconie.bsky.social. Very highly recommended. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Looks like my website is finally coming back. It tells me to get lost rather than nothing at all. Because that company did have government sites, I think they might have got early notice about this PHP issue and shut everything down until it was fixed. But why not tell us?

I first played Rygar in the San Remo (Glasgow) arcade in 1986. As a game it still holds up. I also played APB and Road Blasters in there. It was pretty shady, but they had the good games.

Any users of get_iplayer will have noticed it has shat the bed. I'm sure they'll fix it before long, but you can still use jdownloader2 if you paste the whole url in.

I followed one of the schedule urls and it gave this. That's hopefully a good sign. Maybe it's to do with this php situation as it did just happen in the middle of the day. Normal changes usually happen overnight.

New conspiracy dropped "You likely have low blood pressure, as many people do. Increasing your sodium intake will help." I suggest speaking to your doctor, cos I'm a madman.

Halloween house in Glasgow. Last time I saw that inflatable Michael Myers it was on a street corner being used as an advert for a bathroom fitting company!

Here's a good example of why I could never understand those who thought computers couldn't make music. The tune is by David Whittaker, nephew of that famous whistler Roger.
