Finally turned Minecraft up to Easy. Got a bit traumatised from playing on Normal when I first started, and since I was more interested in building than survival, I’d been playing on Peaceful all along.

Made me realise just how unarmed I’ve been. Thankfully, I had been mining a lot, and hollowing out a mountain to make my home, so I have a ridiculous excess of cobblestone to make stone swords with.

I know someone who could use one of these today.

The sort of twee person who thinks swearing is in anyway a sign of a lack of education or of a lack of verbal interest is just a fucking lunatic.

New Tumblr iPad Dashboard is prettier and I like it for that, but how do I get to my drafts? Or edit a post?

And I thought scrolling could be a tad smoother on the original iPad, though that might be more down to hardware.

Edit: Huh, New Dashboard is gone.

Squee! Three of my favourite things in one: computers, trains, and models!

Too bad it’s a goofy-looking train rather than a realistic scale model of an actual, historical engine. Should’ve roped in Hornby. Imagine a Flying Scotsman or Mallard PC. That’d be so awesome.

Actually, what if there is a third rail that carries Thunderbolt? That rail can then connect to a stationary I/O hub on your desk. This way, you can build a circuit for the train to run on, but still be able to use it as a computer and not have to worry about tangling cables.

Ooh, better still, the tracks can be mounted along the ceiling and run throughout the house, like you see in those old, awesome toy stores with a model railway running above your head. People will ask, “Where’s your computer?” And you’d say, “Probably in the kitchen right now. Give it a minute and you can watch it steam by.”

Gasp! What if they actually licensed Thomas the Tank Engine? Aaaah!

(Then it’ll be a Really Useful Engine. Ba‑dum‑tsh.)

I’m giddy.

Don’t spend much time on the Tumblr Dashboard, so I don’t know how long these have been around, but I’ve only just seen my first sponsored post on the Radar.

Not bad.
