A couple of months ago Spotify released Soloist, an official way of running it headless on a Pi. I found it was a bit of nightmare to set up Pipewire, etc. and wanted to add a few features on top. So here's my new project: Encore. It takes Soloist and wraps it in a docker container. pimusic.stream

So @uksgmarathon.co.uk Blue 2026 is this weekend. Orgs should be doing last minute checks & making sure everything is good to go right? Naa. We are all at the Sonic Concert in London instead. 😂 Turns out it isn't just Glasgow that we all appear in. Soooon. <3 @huds601.co.uk @pazy160.bsky.social

Maybe volunteering is more so your thing? If that's the case, then we have applications for Onsite volunteering here: tinyurl.com/bj65sehp And we have applications for moderation here: tinyurl.com/bde5mh9e Volunteer submission close Saturday 29th at 6pm BST. We can't wait to see you all!

And that's time! ⌛ The schedule for #UKSGBlue26 has now been revealed. Congrats to all the runners who have been accepted 👏 If you're curious, you can check out the schedule here: ong.run/uksgblue26/m...

This is incredible news. I remember being really jealous that Japan had mobile FFVII games when I was a kid. Can't wait to play this once translators do their thing. Thank you so much for your hard work @yuvi.app <3

London Trans Pride 2026. I hate that every year it's more important than ever for this march to happen but here we are again. Trans rights are human rights. We will live our lives. We will not go away quietly. We will resist. We will survive. We will not be erased. #transrights #transpride

Ok that was not on my bingo card for todays F1 GP. What a race. What a podium. Never thought I would actually feel emotional listening to the Italian national anthem but here I am happy to be proven wrong. Well done Lewis. Forza Ferrari. Now can McLaren speed up their development please. 😂

A small break from our world cup TV marathon for the Barcelona F1 GP. Not a fun year to be a McLaren fan but hopefully Ferrari can give Mercedes a battle today and give us some excitement.

Scotland you magnificent bastards!!!!! Haiti 0 v 1 Scotland 28 years since we were here. 36 years since we won here. WE ARE BACK. <3 NO SCOTLAND NO PARTY YES SIR I CAN BOOGIE #scotland #haisco #worldcup

It’s a good thing the World Cup planners put the Scotland game at night, otherwise the fan sunburn situation would be a mass casualty event.

YYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS CMON SCOTLAND!!!!

FFVII REVELATION!!!!! OMG OMG OMG I NEEEEEEEEED IT My brain is so fried right now... 15 years of dev work on the remake comes to conclusion. 30 years of my life playing VII. I am going to spend months hitting F5 on the @square-enix-games.com store for the collectors editions. I can't wait.

It's the 6th and final day for the Safety Team intros before #UKSGGreen26. You've already interacted with them for the past year because ... The final member to be introduced is @brokenhyperlinksrc.bsky.social, me! The Social Media Manager! I am in Glasgow right now and maybe sitting next to you!

Give it up for Day 4 of Safety Team introductions! Don't let the Monday blues hit too hard, #UKSGGreen26 is almost here! The next Safety Team member we would like to introduce to you is a fellow marathon organiser, @itzpaige.bsky.social!

Day 5 is here, just another work day to go before our festival of fast begins in Glasgow! The next Safety Team member you'll see at #UKSGGreen26 there to help you feel safe and comfortable is @whitetiger89.bsky.social!

The schedule. God damn. What an event this is going to be. Can't wait to see you all there. So much to get done....

Happy to back and support @mjgallagher.bsky.social with his latest project focused on FF Tactics. I went with Virgo tier ALL OF THE THINGS but you don't have to be as mad as me. If you love FF games I do suggest you pick up all his work. You won't regret it. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mjg...

1. I love Mario. 2. I love Glasgow. This is awesome. <3

Three times a year we take time off work, give up our weekends & come together to have fun, play games & raise money for an awesome cause. I love the @uksgmarathon.bsky.social community so much. You are what make all the long hours, stress & sleepless nights worth it. Can't wait to do it again. ❤️

Q: How many Final Fantasy albums does a girl really need on vinyl? A: Yes. #SquareEnix #FinalFantasy

What a night, what a show, what a... large amount of content that will never see the light of day lol. So glad to have Mock the Week back and to have been able to be there to see the recording. Welcome back Dara and team.

Thank you all so much for watching our post-AGDQ showcase! Thanks to @gamesdonequick.com for having us and @uksgmarathon.bsky.social on to talk about the importance of grassroots groups like ours in speedrunning. You all belong here. <3

Thank you so much for having us @ambercyprian.bsky.social and letting us and FPE staff show what grassroots speedrunning is all about. Loved every minute of it. Also shout outs to whoever made that graphic. It is awesome.

One month till the first @uksgmarathon.bsky.social event of the year. Yep time to get the tech sorted. No rest for the wicked. :D Can't wait to see so many of you there. <3

Take a bow James Cameron. #Avatar: Fire and Ash. Just wow. Please see this as intended cause 3D IMAX has come a hell of a long way. It makes the 1st one look like a student project. It's an experience you can't get at home even if you have a 20k home cinema. Easily the best of them all so far.

SCOTLAND 4 v 2 DENMARK YYYYAAAAA FUCKING BEAUTIFUL BASTARDS!!!!!!! All bow at the altar of Saint Stevie Clarke!!! We are going to the World Cup!!!!! NO SCOTLAND NO PARTY!!!!

Ok Bubble EMIII came out so well. Amazing work as always by Chezi <3

What a weekend with the most amazing, generous, fun and down right chaotic group of people you could imagine. Let's do it all again soon. <3 Still don't believe you all insisted I wasn't allowed to take this event's photo.

The first large-scale Nazi book burning was on 6 May 1933, when Magnus Hirschfeld's Institut für Sexualwissenschaft in Berlin was attacked by Nazi students. It would take decades for science to recover the knowledge about trans-affirming healthcare that was destroyed that day.

It's the last day! Bring on some amazing speedruns. So proud of this team. <3

Important UK Trans: Given the number of ppl escaping to the Republic of Ireland, our LGBTQ orgs have stepped up a gear to support people. The main LGBTQ charity is LGBT Ireland. If you call them, they can give you advice on moving to Ireland:

A trans person being in the same room as you is not a violation of your privacy. Demanding to know whether a person in a room with you is trans or not IS a violation of their privacy. It's endemic of how fucking far the needle has moved that this simple fact is so lost on so many people.

Two of my favourite streamers, really good friends & all round awesome people made trans pride logos of their mascots available on t-shirts this year. I think they look rather good together. Many thanks @huds601.co.uk & @rainbowzilla.bsky.social for supporting LGBTQI+ charities & trans rights. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
