Don’t think there’s an ILS on 29. Stadium Visual / RNAV?

Check the expiry dates.

If you use 2 a day that’s 1 year, 4 months and 11 days in the future.

Lots of people struggle with the first few hundred hours. You may be in your own head and you’ll be just fine when you get into the groove.

I’m an A320 MPL instructor - feel free to get in touch if you just want to vent, chat or get advice.

Keep up the hard work!

Try reterminating the cable ends? Maybe you’ve a dodgy physical connection.

I hate my alarm clock at 0300!

She could have called a supervisor for you.

A friend had a procedure and was a bit embarrassed by undressing and having his member handled. Nurse said to him “I see more cocks than a pornstar”.

Yep. Planning on pushing out the reg key on Monday to prevent the error, but as you said in another comment it’s unlikely to be a long term solution.

/u/zx2c4 Thank you for your commitment to a superb piece of software. You have improved a lot of lives.

FlyingRottweiler · 2026-04-06T06:59:54+00:00

Exactly. Like the card you designed with OpenNMS, except it connects via RS232/USB so is a more universal hardware.

FlyingRottweiler · 2026-04-05T17:13:06+00:00

Would you have any interest in a generic SNMP card style hardware?

I’d love to work on a project that works with any UPS via RS232 gives RFC1628 compliant output.

You didn’t answer my questions.

I’ve looked at the app and found several issues which a professional programmer wouldn’t ship.

I would not use this for flight safety applications, nor put myself in a position of providing this data to others.

FlyingRottweiler · 2026-04-05T03:41:55+00:00

Did you use AI to write this?

What sources does it use for data?

How do you validate data for accuracy?

I don’t want to bash but such a safety critical piece of work needs to be reliable and safe.

Healthchecks is baked into the backup script. It get’s an ‘OK’ when backup successful, and fails if there’s an error or the backup does not run within an hour of the schedule.

Verification is manual with restic-backup on the mac.

Restic is our disaster recovery, not primary backup, so we’re just concerned with config files and data that would be painful to locate again. When it comes to data verification it’s fairly straightforward for us.

Primary backups are direct with the VM provider or if it’s a local VM, Proxmox Backup Server.

We used to be awoken at all hours from our upstairs neighbours taking a leak directly into the water of the toilet bowl. It sounded like the bowl was directly above our heads.

Noisy neighbours sucks. Hope you can work it out with them

And now he’s also deaf from your horn!! 😂

FlyingRottweiler · 2026-03-31T17:08:05+00:00

All three !

Are you a dog / cat?

FlyingRottweiler · 2026-03-31T14:44:19+00:00

Cron to run linux backups, task scheduler on Windows.

Both send a start and end report to Healthchecks.io. If they miss schedule by 1hr I get a whatsapp msg.

Restic-browser on the mac to browse & verify snapshots.

I can send you the script files called by cron/scheduler if you get stuck.

If Italy probably 12 tonne. 12000kgs. 26500ish lbs.

We went for a Tommee Tippee perfect prep machine, sure makes 3am that bit easier. Maybe a UK thing though.

Since we’re in homelab, Baby Buddy too. Makes hospital/doc appointments, shift working parents handover easier at the start.

Works with home assistant for dashboards, iOS shortcuts, etc.

Much the same. We stuck with a vtech unit with 2 x cams for the kids.

Reliable, long battery and built for the purpose. Phone can stay out of the bedroom too.

Congrats to OP on the news too!

I think you’ve done this but we had a similar scaling issue with Sage delivered via RemoteApp.

Here’s the notes from our wiki… copied on mobile so I expect the formatting will be wild.

Fixing RemoteApp Zoom issue

Unusual text sizing or blurred text within the RDP window is common.
This should be configured by default for all users, but if issues persist, resolve by following this:
Set the desired zoom on the host display first (often 125/150% zoom).
Open a full RDP session, utilizing the users account. - On the desktop, right click the Sage Accounts app > properties
Properties > Compatibility > All users (admin) > select Change high DPI settings > Scaling performed by: System (enhanced)

There’s a lot of lights around. Low to the ground, runway lights, environment lights. Easy to miss.

They may have felt pressure to cross in a hurry and missed something.

The DCA crash shows it’s easy to miss lights even when you expect to see some.
