Barging in taking someone's creation, changing it slightly and taking all the credit? Sounds more capitalist to me. :D

If I were to have been by the sea today, and taken a photo, Google might have stylised it like this. Which is pretty cool.

I do remember doing it but the more I think about it, the more I remember that I was in my old bedroom at my mom and dad's house so that's at least 10 years ago.

Title.

But also, on Windows Vista when I tried a few times and it said 'nah, you don't need to do it, fragmentation is under 10%'.

So probably on Windows 98SE.

I don't know about that, but the last time I fragmented a hard drive was when I shot one repeatedly with a .22LR rifle ;)

He can read his name. D’oh!! We should have foreseen this and taught him a different name.

Disappointed in forum. On verge of flouncing, in fact.

No one. NO ONE said "de frag the kitchen". Even "De-egg the kitchen" would have been acceptable.

Happy birthday Pete slash Curio.

On a different subject, I think someone must have stuck a poster on my van saying, 'Drivers, please drive like a complete twat when in the vicinity of this vehicle today, particularly in Manchester.'

Had a handful of old tape games delivered today, despite not having any of the hardware to play them (I blame the nostalgia of wanting the speccy version of Out Run with its audio tape). I like how Blade Runner was based on the film... score.

Is that one of those big chunky plastic tape covers? I bet it smells great. I used to have, erm, god, I’ve gone blank, that one where you’re a ball bouncing into the screen and the different coloured tiles do speed ups and bounces and whatnot. I want to say, trailblazer or zonerunner. Anyway, oh yeah, the point: it came in a chunky black plastic case.

Story fin.

I loved Trailblazer, and quite a lot of other stuff Gremlin did at the time. The Blade Runner case isn't that big though - other pic for scale -

That Street Fighter box is hideous. The random character placement in the art and the weird tag line blatantly written by someone who's only knowledge of the product was the picture on the front. Urgh.

Terrible isn't it? I think it was the same artwork that was used for the SNES too but without the tag line.

It was definitely the same artwork as the Amiga as I had it and it came with a free poster which I had on my wall.

I was thinking of Breakout, but that didn’t have a ball bouncing into the screen.

I really ought to get my Atari out of the loft to see if it still works. My kids would love to play Buggyboy again, I’m sure, even though they’re in their late thirties.

Thanks for the birthday wishes guys and gals, and more of the same extended to Curio!

I have birthday meal and movie tonight; coq au vin with a fine bordeaux. Mmm. Also hopefully True Stories, the David Byrne / John Goodman movie from the eighties if YouTube behaves.

Once again thanks for attending my Bristol Birthday Bash on Saturday, Kern! :luv:

Yesterday I was in a Coffee shop and at an adjacent table was a man of, I guess, 20-25 with two women of about 80. He was like every Internet/comic book store nerd ever written into a film from his looks. He was absolutely burning the ears off these two bemused and yet bored looking women with his case against evolution which, in his entirety, seemed to be:

“But you realise it doesn’t make any sense, right? They say we share a load of our DNA with bananas. But you don’t share any features with a banana. Look at a banana. How are you related to a banana? Can you be related to a... berry? Do you share DNA with a berry, too? It doesn’t make any sense. At no point can you say that we are like a banana. Do you think you look like a berry? I looked in the mirror today [this I doubt, I don’t think he’d washed his hair this year] and I’m pretty certain I didn’t look like a berry...” etc.

I tuned back out, but as he was leaving he was saying “and anyway, even if there was really another planet that would support life you tell me exactly how we’d get there...”

I didn’t hear either of the old ladies speak once. He seemed MIGHTY pleased with himself though, for being a genius and resisting being fed all that fake education.
