I’m delighted to announce that my musical hyperfocus this afternoon is Aphrodite’s Child - The Four Horsemen, because it’s incredible.

Why are all the fastest sprinters Black? Do people of West African heritage have a genetic (unfair?) advantage? Does it have something to do with slavery?

Forgot to charge my watch last night, so am once again attempting to charge it on the charger I have at work. For reasons known only to it, it just doesn’t appear to actually work.

It’s a genuine Apple one, but no matter which USB socket I plug it into it just doesn’t appear to do anything useful. The watch indicates it’s charging, but the battery doesn’t seem to fill up.

Never forget.....

Findus Crispy Pancakes were found to contain 100% horse meat. A whole generation of British kids grew up eating horses. I feel like that should be more of a thing. Maybe that's got something to do with the UKs mental health epidemic. Mental horselth epidemic (nope that doesn't work at all). But maybe we're all sad all the time due to eating a bunch of horses by surprise. SURPRISE, MOTHERFUCKERS! You just ate a horse. How do you feel now? This is what capitalism does to families.

Interesting: I just tried following someone on mastodon.ie with an unlocked account and it got turned into a follow request.

Has mastodon.ie silenced me?

If so, I’d like to know why.

PS. This won’t affect you if you’re already following me. It will mean my posts would get hidden from the public timeline and wouldn’t show up in trending posts, etc., on your instance. Hence “silenced.”

Listening back to last night’s show (because I’m a narcissist), and am pleased with how my mic sounds. It was a little too loud last week, so I had to dip it in the edit before upload, meaning the levels are kinda shitty.

But I dropped the gain a touch this week and added a little EQ to it so it’s not so hot, but sounds a bit warmer. I’d like to add some compression to it, but can’t figure out how to do it in Mixxx.

Quick question: what are you hoping for Apple to reveal at WWDC this year? I’m writing a piece and it’d be useful to get insight into improvements devs and anyone else hopes Apple makes or new things it introduces (and how they are achieved).
