    Our top ten picks of the week
    To make progress the Conservative Party needs to acknowledge some of the recent past and move away from it, faster Giles Dilnot “For better or worse, depending on your opinion, Badenoch is not Johnson, Truss, or Sunak. Those that say she’s completely the same just need to keep repeating it to help their own party’s cause. However, she’ll need to do more, soon, to show the difference, and if she …

    Hemyock revisited…
    In my teens my Grandpa gifted me a first series of books from his collection. In this were the Paul Karau OPC GWR branchline series and I found Hemyock. It wasn’t much later that Dapol re-released the 14xx with improved motor and thoughts turned building my first solo model railway…It was Hemyock, my first love, that fuelled my first documented attempt at ‘proto-freelance’, Stapley. Paul’s book focused only upon termini …

    Using Photoshop Remove Tool to Create New Paintings
    Accidentally discovered something very interesting while messing around with the Photoshop remove tool, which on certain settings uses generative AI to replace out whatever you select with it. In this case, was just playing around removing stuff from a photo of our living room, and saw that the tool was inventing paintings or posters that don’t exist: That one in the corner, I zoomed in on and went through a …

    Macintosh Magazine Media: search engine update
    Some time in 2020 I started collecting CD-ROMs from old Macintosh magazines. Whilst the discs are of Japanese origin—because the supply was plentiful during the extended spring clean of lockdown—they contain a great deal of software from all over the world and a lot of it is therefore in English. They’re an amazing source of old gold: sofware, images, demos, documentation, and many other files. As of today I have …

    Kanebo Comfort Skin Wear | Review
    If you’re going to ask me my favorite foundation at the moment, I’d immediately tell you it’s the Kanebo Lively Skin Wear which I got in an event last 2023. After I tried that, most foundations just couldn’t compare. When I saw that Kanebo has launched another foundation, I knew I had to get it. […]

    Just over five years ago (over New Year’s) Viv and I visited Los Angeles, and the part we were staying in is now under an evacuation order 😳 I think it’s still only the second-most shocking thing that’s happened in a place I’ve stayed, though, after the metro station I used, like, every day when I visited Santiago in 2013 was reportedly converted into a torture facility by cops (carabineros …

    Sonic Advance 3
    Sonic Advance 3 is a curious game. It disregards the speed-focused design of its predecessor, but it doesn’t return to the classic style of the original Advance. Instead it forges its own path, partially based on the teamwork-based systems of Sonic Heroes, to create an experimental co-operative 2D Sonic platformer. One that’s long-winded and often tedious, but nevertheless ambitious enough that it might be worth trying out. The story’s slightly …

    141 Roman gold coins found in Luxembourg
    An exceptional deposit of 141 Roman gold coins dating to the late 4th century has been unearthed near Holzthum in northern Luxembourg. The coins are gold solidi struck during the reigns of nine emperors who reigned between 364 and 408 A.D. Three of the 141 solidi were issued by Emperor Eugenius whose coins are rare because he reigned for only two years (392-394 A.D.) and was never acknowledged as western …

    Winding Up the Week #407
    An end of week recap “If the real world were a book, it would never find a publisher. Overlong, detailed to the point of distraction-and ultimately, without a major resolution.” – Jasper Fforde (born 11th January 1961) This is a post in which I summarise books read, reviewed and currently on my TBR shelf. In addition to a variety of literary titbits, I look ahead to forthcoming publications, see what …
