Just had some "Trick or Treat" visitors. It's pissing down out there, poor sods.
I noticed it was dad doing the chaperone honours.

Oi, Google. Any chance you can tell me which one? Oh wait, it's a sort of advert in't it?

I'd love one of these, but the shipping cost to the UK will make it very expensive. :-(

I used to think that news reports about housing shortages in the UK were a load of old codswallop and designed to encourage councils to tear up Brownfield status on as much land as possible. Having watched my daughter desperately trying to buy a flat 14 times so far, I can see there really is a shortage of affordable housing.

Little did I know in the 70s that I would be stopping off at a garage to pick up chocolate Croissants for breakfast at the office one day. 🥐

No breakfast this morning. I'm starving, and all I have in my desk drawer is a pot noodle. 🥺

Are people really that stupid? When we all watched that video a while back of a man kicking a robot mule and the thing desperately trying to right itself, did you not stop and say to yourself, "Hang on, all that needs is a gun and a camera!"

Great! The stupid plastic frame of my glasses has broken. I tried some of that rubbish Gorilla glue and now have glue all over the lens. I can tell how the day is going to pan out.

It gives me a great sense of 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 to hear that staff returning to the office from the protective bubble of working from home or Furlough are all coming down with coughs and colds that refuse to go away now that we're all back to breathing one another's air. 🤧 🤒

When there's a successful solution, EVERYONE wants to get involved; run with it; cover themselves in glory.

The moment there's a problem with the solution, suddenly it becomes one person's sole responsibility.

Well, there's a first (For me.) my Keyboard at work has died! I spent ages scratting around trying to find batteries, but after two swap-outs, I came to the conclusion the Keyboard is dead; it has ceased to be; it is an ex keyboard.

First thoughts regards Windows 11?
I'm still thinking.

friendica (DFRN) - Link to source
Like most OS upgrades, it's pretty underwhelming for the end-user unless there's sexy new icons or the start menu is moved to the top right corner or file explorer has an overhaul. just like Linux or any other OS for that matter, all the work is 'under the hood' on Windows 11

They need to do away with the calorie charts on food and just put "You should only eat two of these today!" on the packaging instead. I've nearly finished these. :-(

So the TV said something about Google no longer supporting its Movie app and promptly deleted it. I can download the Movies I bought from Google, but they're in some fooked up format that means they can only be played on an Android device. I wish I'd bought DVD's from Amazon now because I bet Google is going to stop its Movie service soon, and I'll lose all my purchases.

I am reworking an old favourite song for all those people putting petrol in water bottles.
