@ianRobinson I do love High N Dry. I tend to think of early Def Leppard and post-H’N’D Def Leppard to be different bands.

@TSindelar I tried this. I already live in Ireland so it didn’t work. I give this technique ★☆☆☆☆

@amyworrall my wife recently encountered people having trouble getting into a neighbours house that is run as an AirBnB-style property. The visitors couldn’t find a key, so my wife contacted the owners, and their response was “we have a management company for that. If the guests can’t get in then we don’t care, we’ll just take the hit of a bad review.”

To owners, it’s a bad review. To guests it’s a potentially ruined vacation. Terrible imbalance!

@ianRobinson nah. I spend so much time in computers these days that I’ve started to reject plugins and DAWs. 🙂

@ianRobinson I’ve got a Hammond with a Leslie speaker. Needs a lot of maintenance work to get it sounding good again. It was extremely crackly when I got it, but hasn’t had any love in 14 years.

@nivrig @SallyMonster @selzero I’ll send it by courier… would Yodel be okay?

@acf sorry, but 15k is my limit for a glowing turntable. 🙂

@RebeccaSlatkin those are my meds! (We don’t get pharmaceutical ads in the UK so it’s weird to think that there are ads for my meds)

is there slang for when companies try to cut costs by replacing real artists with plagiarism-laundering machines

if not, i propose: "six-finger discount"

@eternalstorms Hey Matthias! It's nice to find you over here!

My Macs had been slow picking up the update to ScreenFloat 2 and I've been really appreciating it, so I wanted to say thanks again. It's genuinely one of my essential Mac apps, and working on a Mac without it is not fun!

@acf @spins Expensive enough for used! Though I’d probably be as well searching within the UK, as it’s probably cheaper for postage within UK than within the island of Ireland!

@acf @spins been trying to get a copy of Document on vinyl but not so easy to get at the minute!

@acf @spins I fell out of love with it for a while. It was my first REM I bought after “discovering” the band, so my initial excitement by it dropped off quickly, but I’ve come to appreciate its quality so much in later years.

@stuart @jamesthomson @alexcox we already have real numbers and imaginary numbers. Why not virtual numbers?
