Considering my options for in-bathroom audio system. Someone told me they have an audio rig there and now I'm kinda jealous and want one. Trouble is I won't accept something that sounds more supermarker tannoy than premium club.

My favourite train journey of the year: heading down to my family with a backpack full of gifts and booze❤️

Here’s a story I wrote ages ago - Christmas at Waterloo station… https://www.girlonthenet.com/blog/christmas-waterloo-station/

@girlonthenet I was discussing your style and blog with a work colleague yesterday. One of my main points was that I really like the mix of raw language and blunt talk combined with the lighter more humorous parts. Very glad you didn’t agree to a diluted 50 shades.

FWIW. Someone gave me a parody called 50 sheds of grey. You can predict what it was about but absolutely more engaging than the original 😂

So just after it no longer matters, Ofcom has finally decided that you shouldn't be allowed to call broadband 'fibre broadband' when er, isn't fibre all the way.

That would have been useful a few years ago. Who cares now, we're actually rolling out real fibre to more and more people anyhow.

Somehow I get the feeling have lost this one. I wonder how that all works. I paid JLCPCB for PCBs and have not got them. Hmmm. I guess I should give DHL a little longer maybe.

Later PCBs have managed to get shipped, go via Hong Kong, and get to UK since then.

Update: woohoo! “hipment has departed from a DHL facility HONG KONG”

Update: finally turned up

@revk Hope they aren’t on the DHL van I saw in Exmouth yesterday. It was a bit smashed up and waiting in a body shop.

I really want to see an end to this push for every old thing to be 'in the Cloud' - your privacy and data is just entirely at risk all the time now because every damn organisation is just throwing your data in random services for any old thing and you have bugger all say over it.

@GossiTheDog Hello. They do know… because I know.

It’s going to be dealt with in January.

Unfortunately because my offer to sort it was rejected it’ll be waiting.

@GossiTheDog FWIW I’m a Councillor there. Not responsible for the IT otherwise this wouldn’t still be outstanding.

But long/short is, they know, as does the IT company whose Zen reseller account server it’s on know.

But they all decided to go home for Christmas and leave it outstanding.

Not my dad’s pub… 🤦🏻‍♂️

I have three screens, and Apple have a setting to adjust brightness for ambient lighting, but that setting only works on one of them, WTF?

VModifiedMind,

@revk Because your other screens do not have ambient light sensors I imagine.

    Imagine hiring David Cameron.

    To a senior role.

    Who won’t be able to be held to account in parliament as he won’t be able to attend it given he isn’t an MP.

    I still use facebook a little. X has almost died totally. Sadly I have a few people that are facebook. It has pushed more with adverts, and now some sort of "for sale" stuff. I need to get people I contact on facebook in to something more sane, I know.

    What the fuck is "for sale" here for £10. I don't understand. Am I just being thick or what?

    I think I have finally solved a long standing network problem at my daughter's house.

    So PSA...

    Fucking Sky Boxes!

    They have them on Ethernet, obviously, why not, but it pesters you to set up WiFi.

    It seems a lot like some bridging then happens, creating broadcast storms with things like DHCP and ARP.

    We tried the engineer mode turn off WiFI, but does not stay off.

    Eventually created a NoWiFi SSID, set it to that, then zapped the SSID.

    Arrrrg!

    @revk standard sky stuff. They also set all sky Q boxes to chan 36. No issue there either.

    Awesome. Fire Alarm goes off in Morrisons mid shop.

    Security guard being a bit of a knob is rude to people who don’t know what the noise is as it isn’t a fire bell and supermarkets make noises all the time.

    Staff don’t really seem too bothered and there’s no real rush or urgency.

    General confusion about what to do.

    Morrrisons have rubbish Fire Safety procedures.

    VModifiedMind,
    @VModifiedMind@know.me.uk avatar

    Supervisor somewhat surprised that some staff were still on the premises that they thought had gone home.

    No fire. Now they’re just letting staff back in.

    But apparently they’re waiting on the OK.

    FLAWLESS execution of a fire safety plan. Other than the flaws.

    And now we are back in.

    @CenturyAvocado Maybe... we'll see if I'm still irritated in the morning :)
