Okay so my Logitech mouse literally just today packed it in and died, no idea why. Just started being extremely laggy and all the buttons are jumbled up. I thought it was software but it's not because it's also like that on another pc (unless the on board is corrupted or something).

My job is to sit down and enter "Now?" into a computer terminal, which randomly responds "No" or "Yes". I repeat this task for nine hours a day, and twice a month they pay me for the number of Yeses I got. I am quite skilled at this and often speak at professional seminars. Lately I've been very sad

I've said this before: when a big company like Sony buys a studio, they don't actually want the studio. They want the studio's IP, and they'll deliberately discard every aspect of that IP that costs money to maintain, until all that remains is a salable asset in a portfolio that requires no upkeep.

got a new phone and had to wait like four hours to get back on bluesky. did you guys know there’s grass outside

Watching the Yogscast growing up and realising that lot's of the jokes Simon made were, in fact, references to old media is kind of like how people used to watch the Simpsons and not get the bit until years later.

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.

Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.
