What a great gig from a couple of weeks ago. He played all the favs and was awesome. I can’t believe that next year will be 40 years of bad manners. It doesn’t seem possible to me. I’ll probably go along if I can next year. It would seem rude not to.
I bought these to help with a device that has raised bolts out of the bottom of its enclosure. Sadly, these feet aren’t actually tall enough to make a difference, so I’ll have to think of something else instead!
I’ve been meaning to sample a few of the Big Finish ‘short trips’ stories, but haven’t got around to it as yet. So when this one came out yesterday I decided that it was an idea time to start. It’s only just over 30 minutes long so I’m not expecting a detailed story, but it could be fun.
I really liked this post from Intermorphic about what they’ve been doing this year and what they have planned for 2016. I’ve been a fan of theirs for many years now. In fact, probably approaching 10 years now. I’ve seen them go through several iterations and still keep going. I hope that they keep flying the flag for generative music for many years to come.
I thought I’d quickly mention that I am now on Pocket, or GetPocket, or what ever it is called. I mentioned about Pocket becoming a social network in a previous post, but having mentioned it I thought I’d post a quick link to my profile.
I tried this pub (I can’t remember the name of it) a couple of weeks ago. It’s a craft beer pub and you can pull your own pint. I thought that this would be fun, and, to a degree it is. It’s a bit like using a petrol pump in that it counted out how much beer you’d poured up to 1.0, that being a pint.
Sadly it was a craft beer, so too cold and a bit fizzy too. The experience? Well it was ok, momentarily fun, but not much more than that I’d say. It wasn’t helped by the fact that the bar had no atmosphere at all, and was pretty much empty.
Would I do it again? Maybe, although I doubt I’d seek it out on purpose.
I’ve been thinking about this ever since the 6s came out and 3D touch was announced. It is of course the 3D touch feature that I’m most interested in. Aside from that it is just another iPhone. But I’m torn. Should I wait for the 7, which will invariably have more features and I might want one of those, or should I dive in now and get a 6s and use the 3D touch?
I’m not sure. The cautious part of me says to wait, but I’m not sure it’s right this time.
I just thought I’d mention that currently there’s a really good deal on Doctor Who audiobooks at Humble Bundle. All of them are Big Finish audiobooks, so good quality, and cheap as anything! Just $15 (£10.50) gets you the deal, so in GBP terms it is less than £1 an audiobook. Can’t really say fairer than that.
