Yeah I did that last year, and moved everything I found to a different email. 👍🏻

I’ve searched my emails and haven’t received anything but spam to that address for a long time. I don’t think.

A domain I used to use is due to expire tomorrow. I’ve checked and rechecked that no important accounts use that domain for email, I think I’m safe, but still… 😖
I’m pretty sure I was at this point last year and decided to renew just in case. 😅

I run Plex on an ooooold HP Gen 8 Microserver via Xpenology (hacky Synology software) and it’s fine, but I don’t have any 4k content on there.
Worried lately that it’s getting a bit long in the tooth and looking at replacements. I have a more powerful box doing a Home Assistant and a few other bits via Proxmox, I might move Plex there and leave the Microserver for storage.

Yeah, but just a basic one with two heat settings and a timer. This one is FANCY.

Yep that’s what I’m doing, playing an MP3 from the media folder.

It’s been going on for a while. I think the alarm sound I play over the speakers triggers it.

I have the same error notification. 😖 I just ignore it, I don’t actually use the dashboard all that much so it’s no big deal really but yeah, it would be nice not to have it.

There’s a machine in one of the labs at my work running Windows XP. 😳

A bonus side-effect of this process is I now know the names of all the hotties I’ve seen wandering around the warehouse and production areas.

On a related note, HR asked everyone to upload suitable pictures to their Teams profile or email them to us directly, with some guidelines on what a suitable pic should look like (clear photo of their face, plain background, full colour, natural expression, no filters).
One woman sent a pic that was so heavily filtered you couldn’t see her nose, it blended into her cheeks. Her face was a white oval with eyes and a mouth. So many others were clearly taken on nights out, glammed up, really bad lighting, one with drink in her hand. 😆
They’ve been given a chance to try again, and if they still can’t send something suitable their manager will take one for them.

Is there a German word for the first time the leader of your country’s government is younger than you? 😖

Drill some holes and join them up with a saw, I guess. This gear comes with rigid plastic templates for the holes which is nice. Not sure I'm gonna bother having the control unit on display tbh, I'll just keep it in the cupboard. But it would look ok on the side of the cabinet for sure.
This is what I got, but they do other kits (single fans, separate fans etc), the control panel has 2 outputs and each one will run 3 fans.
It has an “auto" mode which just turns the fans on at whatever speed you set at a given temperature, or a “smart" mode which ramps the fans up gradually.

Now I just have to try and remember which items I've added to iCloud Keychain in the last month…

Cheers! I think I’ll try changing the runtime to time remaining.

Hey, could you share your code for this? I want a little now playing card on one of my dashboards and this looks perfect.

It was super popular here cos of Eurovision. And also cos it’s an awesome song.

And now this has replaced Second Minute Hour as the song stuck on the jukebox in my brain. Fucking ace bop with 80s vibes.
