These AI chips… they’re gettin’ faster every damn day. It’s like they’re in a race… a race to see who can make the most money off my anxieties. They’re buildin’ these things bigger and faster so they can track my every move online. Every click, every search, every damn time I look at a picture of a cheeseburger. They know. They know.

Updated shuffle of PSP games, curated to ones I’ll pick up and play, with some classics installed in 2006! Music Beat Games Rockband Unplugged I’ve never got into these games in the past, beyond picking up a Rockband drum-kit to use as a sampling device :p DLC installed too, some great tracks, really appreciate the Pearl Jam & GlaDos tune Gitaroo Man Lives! Fun off the wall arcade guitar beat…

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
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…
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.
Blood Bowl 3 delivers the brutal charm of its tabletop source material, but is its heart of strategic chaos locked behind a predatory Warpstone paywall? Join the discussion!
PlayStation Plus delivers a diverse mix of experiences in March 2024. Get ready for the quirky puzzles of Hello Neighbor 2, the adrenaline rush of F1 23, the brutal beauty of Sifu, and the cosmic battles of Destiny 2: Witch Queen. Find out which game is right for you…
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.
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…
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:
The images that grace our screens and ignite our imaginations – nebulae sculpted by unseen forces, distant galaxies shimmering like cosmic jewels – often find their origin far beyond Earth. Telescopes like Hubble and JWST, sentinels in the silent vastness, have journeyed away from our home planet not merely to draw nearer to their targets, but to free themselves from the subtle distortions of our world. Consider the atmosphere that…
Bloody hell, here we go… the Great Reset and the Great Replacement. It’s like watching a pair of toddlers bicker over a broken toy, except the toy is our entire freaking world and these prats might actually smash it beyond repair. So, first up – the Great Reset. Brought to you by those wankers at the World Economic Forum – annual billionaire sleepover in Davos, don’tcha know. Suddenly, they’ve seen…

Oh, look! Bitcoin’s doing a thing again! Suddenly it’s worth some imaginary made-up number, and those crypto-bros in their dad’s basements are acting like they’ve cracked the secret to eternal wealth. What happened? Did Elon Musk tweet an emoji again?
the thrilling promise of possibilities mixed with the stomach-churning fear of the unknown.

Maybe Starfield’s core lack of personality marks a deeper malaise, a sign that all the polish and promise in the world can’t save a game with a busted soul.

No posts for a while, but still heaps of gaming, spoiled with 3 epic AAA titles, that I’ll be playing for a long time, not even including Street Fighter VI! A Final Fantasy Title for the Ages: Final Fantasy XV Introduction: Final Fantasy XV is one of the most ambitious and visually stunning Final Fantasy games ever made.
