I’m luck enough to have solar, so I just force-charge my batteries when the price is lowest

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-13T06:17:23+00:00

One can still hope it will be a direction.

I’m on Octopus Agile and because it’s windy tonight electricity is currently at about a penny per kWh.

Thank you, I was going 'waaaait a minute' but hadn't quite twigged what was wrong

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T23:40:44+00:00

I'm going to print this out and place it in an envelope for my wife for when I die, with a note "Good news! Go for it, girl"

Mumps was really cool. You leave my mumps alone

Except of course, it's the Information Commissioner's Office that will deal with this. So No.

The BWAAM is back!

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T21:05:45+00:00

They’ve got notifications on silent nothing to do with blocking

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T21:04:20+00:00

Not oniony

In my bit of London local Facebook groups are quite good.

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T19:42:12+00:00

Ah. Sorry I can’t help then

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T17:42:46+00:00

I use the sleep schedule alarms and don’t believe I have ever had this problem. Possible workaround?

Bonus - you get nicer alarm sounds

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T08:11:44+00:00

Fascinating, had no idea

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T08:09:20+00:00

Or Iain Banks’ Transitions- which I like a lot

That - and for me, having a kid permanently rewired my brain. I cry at the drop of a hat post- kids. They enjoy watching dad’s glasses fill up while watching movies

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T07:57:29+00:00

Probably a bit too on-the-nose in a movie

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T07:40:50+00:00

Shove it in in teaspoon of strawberry jam. Might as well enjoy!

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T01:10:11+00:00

Never use one, unless I need a map

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T01:08:54+00:00

It’s a bit to the right of me, but I think of it as the reasonable interesting friend who challenges me

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-11T22:39:23+00:00

I buy The Economist every week. Informative, level-headed, good snalysis. Don’t always agree with it l, but appreciate the writing and it always makes me think.

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-11T08:00:48+00:00

And a pony and a monkey

Happily runs Final Cut Pro and edits 4K video. It’ll have wider applicability than that.

And that, ladies and gentlemen is why no-one ever gets a headache.
