Of the many schools I went to, only 1 had a "Nature Area"
It was a light well about 3m x 3m with a small pond and a few shrubs.
All the rest were sterile grey concrete walls and floors. The only green areas were over-mowed football pitches.
So this is the real Cloud Computing?
I thought it was just someone else's computer.

My first year too.
I just keep trimming the branches that are getting wild every few days to stop overcrowding.
Trimmed the tomato bushes earlier as they had gotten a bit on the wild side.
Hands still smell 2 hours later and after 3 washes.

So did I.
I like to scroll the world feed a while. Occasionally I'll find something new there.
I guess it's time to migrate again.

I don't think you would get a very good smoke as an asbestos cigar would be rather difficult to light.
Took the protective plasters off.
Such a small area affected.
Bled quite a lot for the size though.
Spicy salad bar and spicy waves this lunchtime.
Normal.

Forcing the homeless away by not allowing them anywhere to sleep, local councils can deny they have a homelessness problem, so don't have to spend money on it.
They can instead, divert that money into their back pockets.

Anybody know of another server to migrate to where the live feed is still active and won't be removed that I could migrate to?
Wife just get herself a new phone number to get away from some drama and constant notifications, but doesn't want to go and change the dozens of apps, socials, and legal thinks linked to her old number, so she's now mad at me because I can't help her out with it.
"Have a look. Whichever one you want, I'll buy it for you."
"£2000! That's too expensive. What about this £400 one over here?"
Mother told us to go to one of the more expensive shops in the area, then complained about the price.
The one she suggested would likely break within a year, whereas the one we chose had a 10 year guarantee.
Email settings changed to everything.
I didn't set that.
Had to go and change it all back to none.
Electric toothbrush bought at the end of February is already showing signs of battery failure after just 10 charge cycles.
Hate being without a car when it goes in for repair.
It's not having the emergency option available that bothers me.
Took your fucking time!

Hmmm.
New software is rather clunky.
It doesn't have the functions that I used a lot on the other software.
Not having colour boards is rather annoying.
It does have some helpful scaling, but it's in an awkward place to find.
#computers #video #editing
Must have been a really difficult journey.
Progress.
Another fabulous lunch from Sugar&Spice in Bolton-le-Sands, overlooking #Morecambe Bay.
So I found out that colourboards are available in this new software, just under a different name.
Rendering on the otherhand is something new.
Standard rendering looks great.
What they want looks blocky as hell because the piss poor bitrate is only a quarter of standard.
Caught the tip of my thumb with a rubber mallet while working in the garden.

2 incomes?
More like needing 3 full time jobs now just to keep the bills at bay.
You want me to fix something!
Well I need you to stop using it so I can move everything out of the way to get to it first.
Clean pass with no advisors.
Add because the last place put 4 down.
MOT and service done for another year.
Delivery due today.
Tracking said it was on the van at 6am.
Wanted me to download an app to find out the expected delivery time. Screw that!
8pm and it still hasn't arrived.
Tinnitus in my left ear is really bad today.
Was working on editing some music tracks yesterday. Only had my left earbud in. Some of those tracks were extremely loud.

@Gargron@mastodon.social I've tried Chrome on and off for many years.
Never managed to get on with it.
Most of the plugins don't work right and barely any privacy/adblock plugins work at all.
Pages would render only half way a lot of the time, other times IE would load instead and show the xml of the page that the link to download something would use.

Typical.
Now the sun is out to make me look like a liar.
Earlier, despite having the numbers clearly on the house and the bin, the bin men emptied our bin and left it on next door's driveway.
Next door didn't put their bin out.
