- I _think_ my C64 is being delivered tomorrow. Something is coming from the Netherlands anyway...
- It’s not every day you see a crowd surfing dinosaur.
- I'm heading to Froth & Fury tomorrow. Originally I was really excited to see Archspire and other international acts. But after listening to most of the lineup, I can't wait to see some of the local acts - Frenzal Rhomb of course, but also BattleSnake and Rocky's Pride and Joy look like stupid fun. 🤘
- Got home last night after a month of travelling and for the first time in a month, I woke up and had no idea where I was.
- What a day. Started with a visit to the Titanic museum in Belfast, followed quickly by a car accident (no one hurt) then a 4 hour walking tour in east and west Belfast covering both sides of the “Troubles”. Now in a bar with my Son drinking beers. Travel is good.
- I’m travelling and started getting constant notifications from my front camera. I checked out and, well, it’s a huntsman. Not sure if it’s eating or shedding.
- Bloody hell York. You look like a fairy tale.
- Just arrived at our new accomodation and found the lift was out of order. Lugged 100kg of luggage upstairs (4 of us) and this is our new view.
- Last night I went to the “oldest pub” in Nottingham. Then I went to the other “oldest pub” in Nottingham. Then I went to another “oldest pub” in Nottingham. I suspect they were all also “the most haunted”
- This might be the best thing I’ve seen all year.
- Yeah. This is good. A fantastic Xmas diversion.
- I think I just saw Rammstein at a Xmas market.
- The Berlin sky put on a bit of a show for us today.
- You know you’re in Berlin when you stumble across a random bar and it has a shrine to The Hoff
- From the Tower of London - the most Bloodborne axe ever. It functions as a gun and an axe.
- You know what’s worse than 24+ hours of travel to the UK from Aus with the whole family? Getting to the hotel and finding out we have a 7 hour wait for our rooms.
- League of Legends has been around for over 15 years. It's changed and evolved constantly, releasing new versions nearly every 2 weeks. This is a talk on the start of the refactoring process for our Particle System - how do we refactor something that is constantly shipping? Why would we even do that?
