I’ve picked up a new battery for my PSP this week, and taking this opportunity to update the installed games I’m looking for ones that are quick for pickup and play. I do have a fondness for beat ’em ups, [Street Fighter & Tekken], and shoot ’em ups [not so much bullet hell, more cute ’em up style] So what gets a place on my SD card? Fighting Games Street…

I’ve been playing with a couple of locally installed image generation models, having heaps of fun 🙂My journey began with Stable Diffusion, and working through the multitude of available models, and loras, I was quite happy with the results… until I found Pyramid Flow! I really should document my journey, challenges, tools and methods, but for now here’s a short video I knocked together

I’m really very impressed, and surprised, at how easy it is to install GPT models on a local machine with GPT4All, plus the bonus of Stable Diffusion After not having any success with setting up a GPT chat bot on a Raspberry PI 3, and even found I couldn’t do it on an old Lenovo T510, I decided to try on my Linux box, and was blown away by the…
Too long without posts 3 things on my mind; orca, Starfield, Local Hosted GPT 🙂 Orca Few weeks ago I wondered into the living room & spotted the dark shapes bobbing through the inner harbour that I now recognise as orca! Picking up the binoculars confirmed this. I jumped in the car, and headed down to the local wharf to await their arrival… but they decided not to make it…

After setting up CloudFlare to protect this digital home, and bailing from Twitter when it was bought by Musk, the SEO of this site have dropped to next to zero. This led me to consider all of the other sites out there, that no longer appear on the first couple of pages of search results … so I decided to compile a list! name description url The Sixth Axis Community-driven…
However, after some experimentation, I discovered that toggling the dark mode setting can magically break the spell. It’s as if the app gets a little disoriented by the sudden shift in light and shadow, allowing you to regain control and resume your normal phone usage.

“This whole situation is a complete and utter shambles, a festering boil on the backside of British politics! First, we’ve got that spineless jellyfish Sunak masquerading as a Prime Minister…”
Goodness gracious me, have you heard about this Gran Turismo Sophy business? You won’t believe it! It’s not a human, mind you, but a bona fide artificial intelligence. A racing computer with a brain, if you will! Now, I’ve always been a believer that racing’s about flesh and blood, instinct and raw talent forged in the heat of the moment. But this Sophy… she’s got me rethinking things, I must…
Jabs, jolts, and a grumpy immune system…think of it as a dress rehearsal for the big virus showdown.
Okay folks, Debian ain’t all sunshine and roses when Nvidia’s involved. Mint, shockingly, might be the answer to my graphics card woes. Let’s dive into this…
My ‘aha!’ moment came after waking up from another night of my typical sightless dreams. I started wondering – do other people actually see memories like snapshots? … Aphantasia is the inability to voluntarily create images in your head – the famed ‘mind’s eye.’
Alright folks, get ready for a bird’s-eye view unlike anything you’ve seen before. We’re not talking drones, planes, or even satellites. We’re talking World View – a company that’s taking us to the stratosphere with some seriously cool balloon technology. These Ain’t Your Average Party Balloons First off, these balloons are massive. We’re talking the length of a football field! The material? Not latex, that’s for sure. It’s a super…

Let’s have a gander at what seems to be captivating the younger generations these days… well, and some of the older ones too, I suppose. Fortnite: Remarkable staying power, this one.

Gather ’round, fellow champions of the Lands Between! A wisp of news curls and swirls from the enigmatic depths of FromSoftware. Yes, it concerns that tantalizing DLC, the enigmatically named “Shadow of the Erdtree”. Scant details may we have, but a sliver is more fodder for theorizing than a gaping abyss, wouldn’t you agree? So, let us dissect this morsel like a particularly cryptic map fragment.
Aha! Computer games in 2024? They just get flashier, louder.. the youngsters with their “Metroidvanias”… bit foreign and frantic for my liking. Give me Pong any day! Still, let’s crack on so I don’t look out of touch. So today, a mix of new releases and remakes, here’s what I make of it all:
