By me for Stuff: The HyperMegaTech Super Pocket retrogaming handheld puts an arcade in your trousers • stuff.tv/news/the-hyper… This little console is the size of a Game Boy Pocket, plays fully licensed arcade games, and is compatible with Evercade carts. £49/$59!

It’s not bad enough I’ve dealt with 2 deaths in the family in 3 months, but this fucker is still at it and taking advantage of the fact that I’m not as active as I used to be. First takes advantage of the pandemic, now this. Hope you burn in hell, asshole. I know you’ll see this

Not sure why this is past tense. Still happens. The only major shift since I was at school is (at least where my kid goes) mandated water bottles and children being allowed to drink during class time.

Time is money. If it takes twice as long to do something you earn half as much. This is the brutal fact at the heart of Brexit. Let’s "Brexit" a £12.99 paperback, blow by blow, and see what difference leaving the single market has made.

A second attempt by someone on BlaBlaCar to use my email for their account. Baffling. I wouldn’t trust this company as far as I can throw it. (Natch, its press team has blanked me since my original enquiry.) #BlaBlaCar #BlaBlaCarScam

My column for Stuff this week: VanMoof’s demise shows how reliant we are on here-today, gone-tomorrow apps • stuff.tv/features/vanmo…

I really loved Twitter till that prick got it.

Good timing for our podcast on Elon Musk: the tech emperor with no clothes. From his childhood, to his success with Tesla, to his complete moral and spiritual collapse into a far-right reply guy. It's a farcical tragedy, which now necessarily includes us all.

Of course Elon swiped the @x account out from under the person who'd had it previously. There was only one way this was ever going to play out. Does the owner of the account have any recourse? I'm pretty sure that the answer is NOPE.

NEW: former owner of @x handle tells me he didn’t sell the account: “Twitter just took it essentially”. They offered some merchandise and a meeting telegraph.co.uk/business/2023/…

Good to see the traffic moving freely now those pesky Just Stop Oil protesters have been removed.

16 years ago, I created @music and have been running it ever since. Just now, Twitter / X just ripped it away. Super pissed

Needs must, so I'm selling my original art for a Pete and his Pimple page I drew in 1988, written by TV's Charlie Brooker back when he was a frequent contributor to Oink! comic. lewstringercomics.blogspot.com/2023/08/classi…
