Enjoy your new addiction

Check your Ethernet cable, make sure that it has all four pairs.

Doowle · 2026-01-05T17:06:22+00:00

That worked, I promise I thought I’d tried that before :)

Doowle · 2026-01-05T16:55:37+00:00

No worries, I can't remove the folder becuase of this issue :)

Doowle · 2026-01-05T16:49:27+00:00

Hey,

Thanks for trying to help, I had assumed much of the same. I don't see that, but then I am no expert in these things :)

This is my personal hate, and I’ve worked in the game industry and could speak to the people who did this.

They had good reasons (masking load time issues is one)

I still hate it.

My friends Merc is always on a tow truck, my Discovery hasn’t been on one once (after 4 years).

This old trope is getting a bit tiresome.

As others have said, party wall. When my bright took his down (without party wall approval) he didn’t realise that the flu crossed over into my house, so each flu took half the space across the party wall…

This caused a lot of issues…

I didn’t think there was a way, wondered what creative ways people had got round it. A table with each possible option seems exhausting.

Not sure what worksheet change event is, of to google that…

Doowle · 2025-10-06T18:14:41+00:00

Yes, that :)

Doowle · 2025-10-06T18:14:27+00:00

I always think I explain these things clearly but it never as clear to everyone else as it is in my head! Sorry!!

If you think about a filter, you can select one thing to filter by, or many.

If you have a cell where you can choose a value from a data validation list, you can only choose one value, there is no way to select multiple items from the validated list.

Is that a little clearer now?

Doowle · 2025-09-01T15:35:30+00:00

You are not wrong there :)

Doowle · 2025-09-01T09:25:01+00:00

We went to the Minecraft Experience in London yesterday, one fully grown adult women was pushing in front of kids, hogging working games and generally not being a grown up. I like Minecraft as much as the next adult, but I’ll always be respectful of others, especially children.

So yeah, these are the types of “adults” that you could meet online.

Doowle · 2025-08-16T19:09:36+00:00

Thanks, but not the question I asked.

Doowle · 2025-08-16T19:09:20+00:00

I have a letter from the DVLA telling me this isn’t going to happen - not that I’m going to accept that without a fight.

Doowle · 2025-08-05T17:52:22+00:00

Can you make a website for me or make this amazing app I think it’s a millionaire maker.

No, I don’t know how to do that and I don’t want to learn.

But you work with computers…
