@Madagascar_Sky @dtl@8bitorbust.info @trcwm Yep!

@andi When I have a bit more experience of it, I'll write something up.

Who is this chap then, I wonder.

@slyka They are like fine wine, you have to lay them down and let them mature.

@codeofamor TTL is an hour and I want my shiny thing NOW.

Finally found a use for a domain I registered in 2002.

My shiny new thing is running, but DNS is being DNS.

Damn you DNS. Damn you.

@synx508 Yep - there's the same bit of metal poking a track for power arrangement on this.
It's also pretty power hungry - it was drawing 250mA
I'll be very happy if I can receive a signal on it.

Quick and dirty TL from last night. Gentle activity and a little extra colour before the high clouds claimed the night.

As I was going to the shower, I tossed a bundled pair of socks from my office doorway onto my desk.
After my shower, I couldn't find the socks. Not on the desk, chair or floor...
I eventually found them (steeping) in my full tea cup.
Good morning.

Last night I got the radio to briefly draw some current. A faint hiss from the speaker when at max volume and I think I just caught a whistle as it tuned though a carrier, but then nothing.
It was back to zero current this morning.

Scientists are studying the effect of cannabis on sea birds.

They've left no tern unstoned.

@IU1KGS hello!
It's very nearly Friday!

Morning!

A very happy birthday to the Sinclair ZX80 released on this day in 1980!

HIGH BARNET

Another photo from this shoot.

In the UK, the word "barnet" means hair. Taken from the cockney rhyming slang (Barnet Fair = Hair)

So as I have a growing collection of photography puns on the underground, I couldn't resist capturing a fun photo here.

@futurebird I've got some good books for my office library like that.
Books that according to the ticket were checked out at least a few times per year since new, but because they are "old" they were sold off for pennies or given away.
A win for me.

Good evening.
Recently, Microsoft updated the operating system on my PC, and now wants to charge me $139 to activated it. I suppose it doesn't matter that I didn't ask for the download, don't want the new upgrade, and don't have the money. Anyone else having this problem?

Old Soviet joke repurposed for 2025:
Several times daily, a woman opens a news website, glances at the screen, then closes it.

Her spouse, curious, asks what she's doing.

The woman explains she's looking for death notices.

The spouse says that the website only has headlines, not obituaries.

The woman replies, "Oh, the obituaries I'm praying for will be headlines."
