On one hand, the schmancy coffee machine makes it possible to have lovely coffee at home whenever the urge strikes.
On the other, you do get "hmmm... only 15 minutes till the next meeting — probably not enough time to make a coffee" more.
Can't go back though. ☕
Smart idea. So keeping all outdoor activities to the time after sunset or... um... the time... uh... before sunset... Hmmm.
The vampire he's thinking of must be Blade.
Restarted the 1001 Album Generator thing ( https://1001albumsgenerator.com) again to mix up the daily background tunes.
But just suffered through an excruciating 38 mins of Talking Heads 77 and praying that tomorrows selection is better.
Maybe just a kind of marmite band but I just don't get it. 😬
Stay tuned for more in-depth insights.
Oh to have to relaxed demeanor of the gas engineer fixing my faulty meter, casually asking me "did you know you had a gas leak here?".
No. I did not know that.
Not sure what the Greeks do to lattes to make them so amazingly delicious. Unless it's just because of the fancy glass.
Testing the wonderful world of Mastodon -> Cloudflare pipelines. Except with the correct URL this time.
Hopes for tomorrow given the hurricane outside:
1. The shed is still in the garden
2. Or most of it is still in the garden
3. Or any bits not in the garden haven't hit anyone's car
4. Or any bits that have caused damage can't be traced back to me
As the only person in my team that lives in Scotland, today's public holiday feels especially cosy.🤪
Oh, you need to post me a replacement? For an eSIM. Nothing else you can do. Yes, you know it's a bad system. I agree.
But you'll waive the £1.50 delivery fee. Well I'd certainly hope so.
I'll get confirmation by text? That's not happening with no SIM either. Yes, lol indeed.
Happy Christmas to you too, EE.
Okay, reset it. Will skip it this time.
Do you want to change to an eSIM? Yeah, makes sense, and saves me having to find one of the jabby metal things.
SIM ready. Enter code to complete transfer. Okay... confirmation that the old SIM is deactivated and... oh, an error. "Try again?" Yes, of course.
Oh you're texting me a code. Well that'll not work since there's no active SIM. Phone customer services then.
"I'll just transfer over to my new phone before Christmas..."
Do you want to transfer your work profile? Yeah, why not. Oh I can't continue until my IT dept at work approve it? Oh, it locks the entire phone until they approve it so the only option is factory reset? Wow.
