You’re welcome. Glad it helps.

I mostly work alone but recently had to work with another guy who found it hard to understand how I am. I shared the same with him and he now understands to some degree why I need breaks, wear ear plugs if something loud is going to happen etc. Working alone is definitely easier for me. Not everyone will understand.

Like the other guy said, it could be a bit of autism as well, but I’m not sure. I’m a bit up and down mood wise sometimes for no obvious reason, but did have a fairly dodgy upbringing with a divorce, a dodgy step mother, a cranky father etc.

Anyway, keep on keeping on. It’s ok to feel.

Music sometimes helps. Here’s a track I like for when I get overloaded.

G’day from Australia :)

Social media trends to be a harsh place. Getting down voted and argued with can be quite jarring and distressing - especially when you’re coming from a position of honest curiosity and are met with hostility. The written word can amplify this as text lacks some of the nuance that a real conversation has.

Not everyone is a bad person. You might need a break from social media now and then to reset.

You might also be an HSP like me - see https://youtu.be/TPR1P_D8zjY - gives us some unique challenges.

I’m not sure which is the ‘nicest’ country. I’ve asked myself this a few times. So far New Zealand seems to be the winner, but that’s based on one visit only.

Which country are you in?

There’s an episode of Graham Norton that she’s on. She talks about how they approached those two eccentric dancers to be part of the clip.

As a rider who has a 300 watt ebay front drive wheel jammed into the slot on the front fork where the old quick release front wheel went, I do occasionally worry that at some point it’s gonna go pniaow, and the bike will plow fork-first at 30kph (16mph) into the ground, suitably ejecting its 72kg (¾ mean US adult) and 24v 20Ah Lithium Polymer battery in a conical arc.

How strong are those aluminium slots?

Is that a Graham Kennedy reference?

Does a squirrel listen and determine good pope, bad pope?

It’s just an option on many WordPress templates - asks for your social URLs but I don’t know if any tracking happens natively as a result.

Two questions.

Griffindor?

… And what does it select for a pigeon?

Don’t American bridges fall down already? I guess the wait won’t be too long.

These might be worth trying, I don’t know.

If it’s not overly humid, evaporative air conditioners are a cheap to run way to keep cool. The personal units (Convair Classic etc) are typically about 50 to 80 watts, so a single solar panel, battery and inverter should guarantee safe, grid free cooling for one or two people.

It’s \ instead of /

Most stuff you can find answers on YouTube.

Windows key + R to run a command easily. (cmd for example is a bit like terminal.)

Eventvwr.msc is like your syslog I think. Most problems will show up there, even if they’re not problems at all. (common place to send scam targets as it looks scary.)

Services.msc to see what’s running in the background. (like systemctl I think, not sure.)

Task manager - Startup tab to turn off rubbish.

Msconfig as an easy way to see services, hiding Microsoft services, or to select safe mode etc.

Rstrui to bring up system restore - works sometimes if a machine is kaput.

Regedit in rare cases - a chonky place where most app and system settings live.

File sharing - need to share the files through the usual file sharing option, but also need to change folder permissions. If only one is changed, it won’t let you. Also ‘control panel’ network and sharing centre, advanced sharing settings, you can turn off password protected sharing for ease, but Microsoft periodically turns it back on.

On Facebook I am the group admin for our small town’s main group.

WhatsApp for work stuff.

Sounds a bit like Rustdesk. I’m happily hosting a relay on my VPS but the ‘account’ features don’t work for the free version. I just keep them in a note instead.

Maybe you could build a wooden bicycle.
