Iโve got a new (old) toy! Remarkable how well this works given it must be fifteen years old. Even more remarkable is how good it sounds. Now to play around with modding it..

How any of that was created with the methods available at the time blows my mind
Just about to get stuck into this. Busy day full of trepidation ahead of tomorrowโs triathlon. ๐ฌ
Very nearly got my first micro.blog theme ready to go. Few more things on the list and I can see what happens when I submit!

This is cinema everyone! The stop motion robot clumsily chasing Sarah is as good as it gets
Rip CDs Automatically When Inserted with Ubuntu 24 & ABCDE
I’ve recently started to buy CDs again. Buying and having physical music is just great. The benefit of the CD being that I can rip it, and still access my purchased music anywhere. Couple that with an unnecessary requirement to automate as much โฆ
The sunset last night was bonkers
Drinking beer with my feet up. This is one of the good days
Set up Plex to store my CD collection and got Plexamp up and running. Awesome to have FLACs on the go like this. Iโm buying CDs like mad at the moment.. probably going to need an old school CD rack soon ๐ฟ๐ต
I just finished reading Solaris by Stanisลaw Lem the other day. Quite a weird one, but really enjoyable. Now to watch the movie!

Full of drama, super intense and a lot of fun. I spent literally every tornado scene searching for a cow. Cinema was packed. Is this the film of the summer?
I had a lovely little automation for posting instagram photos to my blog. Turns out the images donโt live for long on the instagram URL so Iโve got to engineer something more clever. Cheers Meta โ๏ธ

No better than three. A shame because I was very excited for this one. Felt like it shouldโve been an 18 with more gore. Definitely had the looks on its side, this was a delightfully shot movie

Three very distinct acts make this really fun. Loved the whole movie. Was expecting cannibalism, Iโve gotta say

Spent a lot of this movie baffled but really enjoyed the absurdity. The anthology style is excellent. Good film

What I really love about Glastonbury is that every inch of the place has something to look at. I’m just about over the blues at this point, but normal life just isn’t the same.

Unlocked a whole new set of fears for my cat
Spent the week on a farm. Two horrible bus journeys, horrendously heavy bags and red hot sun. Worth it all ten times over โ๏ธ

Everything about this film is spot on. All the way down to the closing credits. Special effects completely hold up. Excellent film

Itโs a bit all over the place but I enjoyed it. Groundhog Day in the multiverse
Howโd I get to 30 and not hear Mezcal Head by Swervedriver? Man this album is excellent
Spent some time yesterday modding a Game Boy Advance I bought on eBay. Turns out when I played the original one I realised where my bad eyesight came from.. new screen is so bright!
