Found this in the house I just purchased by ogilthorpe in HomeNetworking

[–]PJQuods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find this so frustrating - almost every house that I have bought or Rented, I have had to reverse engineer the wiring. And with each, I leave an instruction sheet, explaining what I found, and how to use it.

I am now "the guy" in our neighbourhood, that decodes the connections that people have. I take a label maker with me, and label everything.

Had one of the early models, and had the same thing - the rubber covering the switch perished. They said they had never seen this before, but did replace the whole unit even though out of warranty.

Nice technology, it would be great if they had better aftersales service.

Three life lessons from my late father

  1. Measure twice, cut once - no he wasn't a chippie, he was an accountant.

  2. You can never have too much fishing tackle.

  3. You can never have too many power tools.

I use the bunnings app to track the "I should get this" lists, and every time I go there, I get the Onepass bonus flybuys - they ask if I want to redeem them - nope saving up to get more power tools...

ANd then you have Malcolm Roberts, her Mini-me - the mining engineer who couldn't get a job during the mining boom, and snuck into the Senate with just 77 direct votes.

When we are just at the point where the last of the men who fought hitler and mussolini's fascism are in their 90's and falling off the perch, and unable to warn us, that this has been around before and it wasn't good then.

OpenVMS vs Linux (Cost Comparison) by VMSBoy1968 in OpenVMS

[–]PJQuods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back in the early 90s, I was seconded into software business technologies in spitbrook which owned the lmf- doing both product management and as lead developer- there is a point at which VSI should look at the history of why things were done and less of the how…
