Hi-Fi Rush started pre-loading on my PS5 the other night! Wow, I nearly forgot March 19 was so soon!
And for some reason, it’ll unlock to be playable at 8pm ET?? No idea what time they’re using as the universal 12am start, but hey I’ll take being able to open the game in the early evening when I have the time to chill!
I had a great weekend & start of the week with my family. I got to visit my cousin & cousin-in-law for the first time since they had their first child. Afterwards for my Dad’s birthday we went to a play called ‘The Play That Goes Wrong’. It was a really enjoyable time as well. Then today me and my Mom watched the Taylor Swift Eras Tour on Disney+.
But now I’m going to sleep. Retail is calling my name for the rest of the week. 
Ooh, yes. I remember seeing that show quite a few years ago. Very entertaining and impressive slapstick comedy show.
(ooh I also found an abridged version the cast did for a UK Royal variety show!)
Today is the father’s day. Best wishes to all the dads
I recently got a new (old) PC that I’ve turned into my ultimate Windows XP machine, as for the one I had before it, well… get ready to feel old 
Just found out that the title of the movie “Chicken Run” is in reference to the literal enclosure where the Chickens are kept during the day.
That’s literally what it’s called and what it’s for… Wow.
What is a Chicken Run?
A chicken run is a fenced-off area where chickens can roam during the day. The fencing serves two purposes with each purpose equally as important as the other. The fence keeps the chickens in as well as keeping predators out.
Some chicken keepers use the run as an area where chickens can free-range. Other chicken keepers have a run that can be used to contain chickens but they also let the chickens out of the run to free-range.
I’ve had many ideas over the last twenty years for novels that I want to write, and now, I’ve finally started seriously writing one.
While renovating a room I found 2200 dkk (320 usd) behind a radiator. The bills are from the 90-00’s. I’ll try and visit my local bank and see if I can exchange them for the current generation of bills.
Nice find! Internet says you can still swap them out at the bank till 2026 (=
Maybe see if it’s really your lucky week and after you swap them go use 10% of it to buy a few lottery tickets (-;
Just a random Rock Band factoid I just recently learned: the most recent (well, recent if you count 8 years ago) Rock Band title, number 4, had a pretty cool consumer-friendly feature that let you transfer old games’ song libraries into the new one.
This was apparently a series staple for a bit, too.
Older games came with a code tucked behind the manual for you to redeem online and get that games’ track list as DLC for future/past entries.
The website to access this feature has long since been wiped from the 'net unfortunately almost as long as RB4 has been around. (However, for all we know, had it still been around, the codes would probably still work! – they still do for the console marketplace codes in old “Track Pack” dlc addition copies in the series!)
But the website codes still remain on this earth, trapped on their paper inserts…
And I apparently had one of these codes this entire time and never knew!! But I’m nearly a decade too late to use it! Wtf??
I don’t recognise this paper at all and it’s apparently been sitting behind the user manual for Lego Rock Band for the PS3 THIS ENTIRE TIME??
No idea if 15-year old me would have ever been interested in redeeming this just for the hell of it, but by GOD I wish he had! (Not that I own RB4 lmao, but just knowing I could have had the chance makes it hurt so much more) 
Man those old bills looked way cooler than the monopoly money we have now.
I prefer the current bills, I enjoy the danish ancient finds that grace the bills.
Asking since I don’t have any idea. Do you need to exchange them for new ones? In the States, we’re free to keep using bills that are decades old if we want to (although if you get old enough, cashiers start wondering if they’re counterfeit since they don’t know what a 1960’s era hundred dollar bill looks like). Do you run into issues if you try to use older currency like that?
Mr. Norseman can still use them up until 31. of may 2025 as far as I can tell. This includes the current gen 1000 kr note that is also getting phased out.
RIP
Technically no. But as you said.
The Danish bills drastically change from series to series. I can’t be bothered to deal with a cashier that doesn’t recognise them and the majority of people wouldn’t even know if they still hold any value. I can’t be bothered dealing with this possible inconvenience. More importantly I despise physical cash. In the end I won’t even exchange them, but make a deposit.
Coins and bills are more or less alien to me. I haven’t had physical cash on me for well, the last decade. Of course there are exceptions. But 99% I use my credit card.
I’ve had issues trying to spend thousand dollar bills down to 2 dollar bills because they are very non-standard denominations. Legally, there’s nothing wrong with a 2 dollar bill but since a lot of (younger) cashiers have never seen one, they just think it’s fake or something. Technically, I think we can still spend money that was printed anytime after the Civil War but for bills that old the value is often more than the face value so spending it like normal bills is sorta dumb.
hang on… that’s not….
Siiigh… I hope this doesn’t make me look or seem too petty, but… I’ve been waiting for a shipment confirmation that hasn’t come yet, and just today the Ezio Collection goes on sale again for it’s low-digital price of 16$CAD.
Messaged the seller this morning about if/when they’d ship it, I think if I don’t get a response tomorrow by the afternoon I’ll ask if I can cancel the order.
I feel bad, but… could be saving money and time here 
Or, hope they shipped it but forgot to update the site.
Don’t feel bad, this will most likely keep happening to you for the rest of your natural life. It is my Fourth Rule of the Universe, it will always go on sale as soon as it possibly can after you buy it at full price.
