Toasted my Hot Cross Buns in the air fryer. That is all.

I'm very concerned about the UK tax exiles living in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates that are now at risk of Iranian reprisals. Yep. It's a real shame. Will keep me awake at night.

Did you save scum like a mofo?

"Are we there yet?"

Fun or Skill? I'm bad at playing Chivalry 2. This appears to annoy some other players, which pleases me. Not every endeavour in life has to be a struggle for excellence. Why do so many gamers balk at the notion of "fun"?

I noticed that a lot of vehicles come with a photon torpedo these days.

Would you be surprised to learn I have an interest in the paranormal? Does this mean I believe in ghosts? Well we'd have to define what that term means before we began a discussion. Thoughts on balancing scepticism with an open mind.

Fighting the Cost of Living. There are always savings to be made with your personal finances. Making such changes is no longer just a optional extra but essential. Yet apathy often stops people getting a better deal.

Into the Uncanny by Danny Robins (2023). An interesting and engaging book version of the Uncanny podcast. It works mainly due to the author's personality and inherent people skills. It also takes a very even handed approach to the subject.

I'm assuming this is a rhetorical question :)

Projects and Problem Cascades. It's amazing how a simple idea can lead to a tsunami of technical issues. A few thoughts on this phenomenon.

Mr. Tickle by Roger Hargreaves (1971). A few thoughts on this existential and absurdist tale which is easily the equal of Catcher in the Rye.

Changing Software. There are plenty of alternatives to Google Chrome, Microsoft Outlook and such like. However, the devil is in the detail. Are you always getting like for like?

Der Tiger AKA The Tank (2025). Despite its WWII setting, this is not a traditional war film but something quite different. Interesting but tips its hand too quickly. Featuring a superb recreation of a Tiger tank.

More Screen Capture Software. Have a I finally found a solution to my "press a single key and take a screenshot that supports HDR" problem?

Turn the volume up to 11 and rhythmically beat your drinking vessel on a roughly fashioned oak table. It would be rude not to.

@mikemuncer.bsky.social Looking forwards to Monday's episode of Carry On Up the Podcast and your forensic dissection of Carry on Up the Jungle. There's so much to unpack. Comedy Gorilla's, blackface and "Nookadicky. Dickanooky".

Anyone else use Reshade with #LOTRO? The latest update crashes the game for me. I had to roll back to the previous version. Is this happening for anyone else?
