I found an old Chemical Brothers minidisc album. Someone just paid £45 for it on eBay so there must still be a collector’s market for pre-recorded minidiscs. I must have a few more stashed away somewhere.

I switched my main domain name over to micro.blog today. I’d become a bit fed up maintaining a Wordpress site, and plugins, that I hadn’t really been using much anyway. My needs for a site are quite simple and everything I need is here. I’ll think about what to do with the WP archive later.

Bell, Book and Candle, 1958 - ★★★★

I’ve seen this film multiple times and it never loses its charm.

I couldn’t wait any longer for The Criterion Channel to come to the UK so I signed up using a VPN, got the app onto a Fire Stick, and I’m streaming films without any further need of that VPN. Streaming restrictions are stupid in this day and age. I’m paying the same as any other customer.
