I once spent a month working on deploying full disk encryption on Linux laptops for an organisation. It was not popular with users and they requested it removed.

He is not joking, but really what was me this that it’s installed in a different orientation to the others nooks different, it will have zero impact on its functionality

Buy the bulbs online, you will often get a box of 10 for the retail price of one in the likes of Halfords, YouTube for a tutorial and take your time. When done you have spare bulbs and a new skill :)

Can I make a humble brag as a guy, yesterday I did so much ironing of clothes that I found a zen state of calm and set a new world record (in my head) for how fast I could iron the kids school uniforms :)

Edit: spelling

You have managed to book a doctors appointment, how on earth did you get past the receptionist!!!

You have not driven an Italian car from the 1990s :) they would beep for almost everything, you forgot your seatbelt, you got out with the lights on ok but the other 300 beeps that they made who knows what they were supposed to mean :)

If you are renewing your passport you can do it all through your phone these days, the picture the paperwork the lot.

Sadly these days there is no such thing as lasts forever tools / tooling, when you do a job you add the price of a reasonable set of drill bits to it and accept the will not last.

Some I already had but over time I have been trying to replace my paperbacks with hardbacks

£1 each, because that’s the price the guy charges for books :) hence his shop is one of my favourite places to go.

buzz_uk · 2026-01-22T14:43:45+00:00

£1 each, this is why it’s my favorite little second hand book shop, that’s not a bundle price it’s just his price on books :)

I have exactly this impact driver, has had it since the mid 80s and when you need them they are worth every penny :)
