This clever snap-on game controller for #MobilePhones blew up on #YouTube earlier this year, and it looked like it was going to happen, then things got a little quiet. It seems, however, that the #MCON team has managed to break through the wall they were stuck behind and, with help from #OhSnap, are going to be showing their latest version at #CES2025. I have to say, it’s looking fantastic! #videogames #tech www.youtube.com/watch

Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Sixpence None the Richer - Eponymous (1999). Despite getting the Grammy nomination for best Rock Gospel Album of 1997 (the version I’m playing is a re-issue) there’s very little overt religiosity unless you dig into the lyrics. It’s a solid progressive pop rock album with lots of clever hooks and arrangements. #music #nowplaying

Well, this is a clever case for iPhone models 12 through 15. Using a Lightning or USB-C connection concealed in the bottom of the case, you can add up to 1TB of storage to your iPhone with the card slot conveniently hidden near the camera bump. #apple #tech the-gadgeteer.com/2024/12/1…

Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Toto - Mindfields (1999). Apparently this wasn’t received well by reviewers, but I like it. I’m especially fond of the title track. For some reason, the one on Apple Music’s first track is “Cruel”, contradicting the listing on the Wikipedia page. Anyway, toss it on and see what you think! #music #nowplaying

A little expensive, but it does make a statement and has the side benefit of making the #M4MacMini’s power button accessible (if you need that sort of thing). ZEERA’s MacForge aluminum case evokes the appearance of a tiny Mac Pro and just looks really cool. Sadly, there’s no option for wheels. #Apple #tech liliputing.com/zeera-mac…

Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Level 42 - Retroglide (2006). Mark King is an absolute beast on the bass. Definitely a must listen if you haven’t heard anything from them since the 80’s. #music #nowplaying #level42

So, just watched all of Amazon’s Secret Level series and here’s my review: It’s not… great. At least with Love Death & Robots we got original stories. These are glossy, extended ads for #VideoGames or, in the case of Ep. 15, an ad for Sony. Don’t bother. Just rewatch LD&R on Netflix.

From what I hear, she freakin’ nailed it :) Good for her… and also, there are no legit jobs that require you to stop being who you are 24/7/365, so taking time off to make a personal dream come true is a non-issue. Period. Full stop. #uspol #scotus #broadway #stage #nontroversy www.theroot.com/justice-k…

Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Genesis - Live Over Europe (2007). One of my numerous favorite albums from Genesis is this fantastic 2 hour and 20 minute live album culled from tour shows around the world. #music #nowplaying #progrock

Um… no. Ignore #TikTok boneheads are claiming that anyone can steal your data using #iPhone’s #AirDrop feature. Fabulists are suggesting you turn off non-existent options or that AirDrop can be used to walk past people and just grab all their credit cards. Don’t listen to these idiots. #apple #fakescams #conspiracytheories #bullshit appleinsider.com/articles/…
