Allow me to bless your timeline with my dog. His name is Bob and he likes sausages, chasing pheasants, and scritches on the bits he can't reach.

To the owners of the other two dogs that Bobdog led off into the marsh like some kind of foul-smelling pied piper, I am terribly, terribly sorry.

Be honest; could you refuse this little face anything?

This is not a drill, people. This is not a drill. PSX core for MiSTer is out.

Thinking about Gove doing silly voices and being weird on BBC Breakfast this morning. Yes, it is funny. But the more I think about it the more obvious it is that he's really not OK. I deplore his politics, but at a human level it's hard not to feel for him.

Well that was a load of mendacious drivel, wasn't it? Thought Brian did well to keep a straight face. #QueensSpeech

Dog's bluescreened.

@hedders forgot the alt text, sorry. Two photos, one showing the view from the bottom of the valley in Devil's Dyke, and another showing the view from the top two hours later. It's very sunny, very green, and very steep.

So which absolute roaster decided that the first properly hot day of the year would be a good day to make the family hike Devil's Dyke? That would be me, then. Sorry girls. At least the views were ace!

Does anyone know how these RAM Kempston interfaces are supposed to work? This one doesn't do joystick right for some reason. Looking at the board I can see that there are pins bridged in a couple of places, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that.

Hound does pick some odd sleeping positions.

Lord I miss being in the EU. Does it get everything right? No, of course not. But for all its faults, its jargon, its occasional insanities, its periodic acts of fiscal incontinence, it is fundamentally a civilising force, whose goal is the betterment of the lives of its citizens.

And of course my stupid little island ditched it all, because Paul Dacre told it to.

Wifey just walked into my office, announced "I'm a goldfish!" and then walked out again.

TIL that you can start the Silicon Graphics audio mixer with the --spinaltap switch, and it makes all the volume sliders go to 11. This pleases me greatly.

So THAT'S why Epic bought Bandcamp.

Right, the DD report is in and I'm going to go play some Elden Ring while questioning my life choices.
