The heatwave we've had for the last few days is about to end with a bang

Software + lapsed electronics engineer, imposter, grumpy, likes plants + nature. Give me some assembly code to debug and I'm happy. OS security guy
The garden has gone crazy the last few days. I've got a load of plants on the patio to go in the ground, and the space that was there a few days ago has mostly disappeared now
@sil Congratulations! :)
@Mossop @tedmielczarek Same here - although not a surround sound system here. I've always enjoyed listening to music on a decent hifi setup, but my kids are at an age where I'm basically never able to do that now (or even use the TV) and my setup is just gathering dust. I'm a headphone person now as well :)
mhoyeJust thinking back to how much work my friends at Moz put into the transition to webextensions, and how much anger and pushback they got from basically the whole world in the process.
Let me tell you: you have no idea how bad things were in the pre-webextensions world. No idea at all.
Not used my office for 3 weeks, and it's amazing how much dust settles and how quickly in rooms that aren't being used. Had to spend 3 hours this evening giving it a good clean

Don't know why this needs to be an anonymous opinion tbh, it's hardly niche or controversial https://www.cwu.org/ltb/ltb-423-22-cwu-low-level-letter-box-campaign/
Finished with this now. Would like to get started on the second one, but I have a couple more post supports to concrete in first which means getting the post hole digging bar out, and I don't think I can risk opening my elbow up again by smashing that into the ground. I think I'm going to have to have a few days of forced rest 😭
Within the next couple of weeks I'm going to run out of major garden projects to do, so now would be a good time for Bourne Town Council to find an allotment plot for me to take over. And I know there are some available because I talk to other people who have plots, and there are plenty that are not very well maintained. So there can't be that many people waiting for them 🤷♂️. (Hopefully!)
Almost finished. A few more knee braces to make and install tomorrow, then it needs oiling (hoping Jo will do that!). I've got one more to build after that
