This is the key point. X is basically unusable now unless you pay. The latest wheeze is ads that appear in your eye-line as you stop scrolling, so the post you want read jumps out of the way. Culture warriors on both sides claim its Musk’s politics, but X is now just shit.

@TheSimonEvans @BordeauxCanary ...there's no predictable link between somebody following you and seeing your stuff. For work sharing, it's worse, because it seems to limit the reach of tweets with external links in them. It's also not much good for coming across genuine expertise you might have missed...

So ... comfort movies. What films do you turn to if you need to lift your spirits? Let me know and we'll turn your thoughts into a @BBCRadio3 Sound of Cinema. They don't have to be *feelgood* movies. The producer claims to have been measurably relaxed by Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

Mark Watson, still here but very much also Bluesky
We're putting the next tour together and it's time for me, once again, to ask you to suggest venues. On this current tour there are (I think) fifteen shows that came from tweets like this. Ideally UK but I do sometimes do mad things. Let's go!

@markmiodownik Epoxy a new switch in the right place then use some fine transformer wire to directly route to other pads on the same connection nets - what have you got to lose?!

Headphone surgery update: unsoldered switch but had to use force to get it off the board. In the process destroyed connector pads. No hope i fear to resolder another switch.

@markmiodownik @Tnargeel I would agree with @Tnargeel as I’ve just done exactly that on another type of device. Uable to ID a side actuated, surface mount, momentary switch, even with the help of C&K Switches. I fitted some from an old unit. ckswitches.com/media/2222/ck_…

@DavidPaternostr @quantick Still bollocks, whoever the words were first uttered by. We shouldn’t need to invoke a magic sky pixie to realise the shame, short sightedness and stupidity of wrecking our only place in the universe.
