The electricians are here and they are going to replace the base board heaters upstairs. After they are done I'll move my desk back and get my computer up and running again. We might have a stream tonight yet, if I feel up for it.
And they are done! My desk is back where it was but I still have to plug in my computer. I think that will take half an hour since I also have a bunch of cables that need "managing". I'll do that after work and see if I am up for an afternoon stream. ♥️
@Merovius@bagder@LangerJan Well, that part is true. You could definitely use curl for reading the forums. However, a web browser is much more convenient. 😉

What cracks me up is when you go to a restaurant, and they ask if you've been there before, and then they say, "Well, we do things a little different here", and then it's exactly like every other restaurant, but more expensive.
My daughter just quit her job that reduced her hours down to 8 a week.
Good for her.
I'm sure she'll find something else soon, or start selling her paintings. Either way, I'm glad she's done with that place.
If I was a bitter father, I'd wait two months, create an alias, and start a complaint campaign to corporate about their managers lack of any real managerial skills.
But, that's not me. (this time) I'd rather focus on the future and helping her move forward.
I had a dream that someone took me to an octopus restaurant but didnt tell me until we walked into the dining area. And they said, "this is an octopus restaurant" and even in my shocked state, I immediately located the kitchen doors, ran in, found the octopus tank, stuck both my arms in, they latched on, rescued every octopus i could manage, and ran.
And i'd do it again too
One thing they don’t tell you is that when you’re in your mid-60s reading a novel about characters in their late 40s, you still imagine them as older than you.
@RobSF I once described this guy I saw as "an older gentleman". I was asked how old, and I replied, "he seemed to be in his late forties or early fifties."
It slowly dawned on me. That's me. I just described me.
