My cat shows me that she loves me by letting me look deep into her heart. She achieves this by sticking her arsehole right up to my eyes so that all I can see are her internal organs.

Fixed up the Chikipower (and somehow caused an LED to stop working), but now have power attached to the breadboard with the AY-3-8910 on it. Will have to start experimenting with the AY and Arduino, as well as plan what I/O the module will have.

Listening to a Burial release on vinyl is frustrating cause you’re constantly thinking you didn’t clean the record very well.

Ok #jobfairy, chucking this out. Anyone got a job for an experienced #macOS , #iOS, #Linux (#gtk) app developer? Uk based, ideally remote (20+ years experience working remotely)

Music or video related a bonus but not essential

@gruber @marcoarment i concede that HomePod Pro Max Ultra is the obvious name for a larger HomePod, but I think “HomePod Goes to Eleven” is the ultimate top end audio product name.

Just because something is difficult does not mean we shouldn’t try our hardest to succeed at it.

It's actually bad luck to say MacBook inside an office. You have to call it 'the Scottish Laptop'

Me in 2022: “100 Knurlies? I'm never going to need 100 of these things!”
Me in 2023: “Shit. I think I'm going to need more Knurlies!”

@bazscott There's a hidden agenda here, wherein you try to get people to stop using foo and bar so that they go straight to Baz instead. I'm onto you!

I’m becoming obsessed with ’s module names. I was immediately intrigued by the Bard Quartet, but I’m now hankering after the Harlequin’s Context, the Mod Medusa, the Time Wizard, and the Knight’s Gallop, and I’m really looking forward to seeing the release of the Banshee Reach. It’s like, are these modules or RPG characters?

⚠️🇺🇦It seems there is a purposeful rewriting of Ukraine history by Western media saying “The war has only lasted 368 days, or 1 year.” Repeating this misinformation allows Russia to claim Crimea was legally annexed in 2014, and only territory after the 2022 full-scale invasion should be negotiated. Please help prevent this from happening, as 8 years of history would be erased, and illegal annexations acknowledged. Crimea is Ukraine, and its been 9 years of war / invasion not just one. #Ukraine

@BenRiceM Hey Ben. I was listening to an older episode of The Cast of Us, and had been at the point where you, Tiff, and Brian were talking about Fear the Walking Dead; specifically about zombies floating out to sea.

This caused me to think: does the possibility of floating zombies imply the possibility of a Great Pacific Zombie Patch out there in the ocean?

TFW you do the right thing and hold off on buying a DIY kit, but then you find it's not only out of stock but looks like it’s out of the entire production run too. That'll teach me for ignoring my GAS.

Have also ordered a couple of AY-3-8910A ICs from eBay. I’ll probably do some initial prototyping with an Arduino, and then see if I can hook it into a Eurorack form factor.

The latest purchase to avoid making actual music is the Befaco Chikipower. I have an idea I want to develop on a breadboard and a separate power supply would be a sensible idea. Now to figure out how to get the ICs that I’ll need.
