An extract from Miranda Sawyer's "uncommon people" covering the Brit awards 1996

Reading the excellent Uncommon People by @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social, tickled by Bowie, Weller's Mam and J King defending Jarvis, with legal support from Bob Mortimer. Let's have more slightly rebellious, anti-establishment tomfoolery directed towards po-faced narcissists, please!

"This is the first:" The 16 year odyssey of "time, money, wrong turns and frustration" it took to finally emulate the Pioneer LaserActive In April 2009, a Sega fan decided to look into emulating the Mega LD, a quirky and little-known hybrid of Genesis and LaserDisc. This week he finished the job.

Until this week, it's been impossible to play the games of the 1993 Pioneer LaserActive without one of the vanishingly rare, disintegrating consoles.

Here's the story of the guy who's been trying to fix that for years -- and all the hardware and software he had to build to make it possible.

It's no wonder Giraffe isn't on the socials - just had the worst dining experience of my life in the Southbank restauranty. I didn't expect much, but this was atrocious, and the lack of quality control in the kitchen symptomatic of broader hygiene issues. Avoid like the plague.

What did Chuck Yeager do to upset Clarkson? Surely Yeager embodies "mor powah" more than anyone else in living memory? Clarkson went out of his way on a question about state capitals to make the point about Chuck

Jeremy Clarkson just said Chuck Yeager was "the worst person I've ever met" on celebrity who wants to be a millionaire and before he could expand on this, Fred Siereix made him feel his heart beating and oh my God now I just want to hear Clarkson's story why did you interrupt him Fred FML
