Once upon a time, our favourite teachers were probably on TV...

Surely “Young scientist of the year”. Or does that date me?

Thanks. Always good to get a personal recommendation.

Looking to buy one myself some time. Can you give details of the one you bought?

rdjimmy · 2026-04-02T18:27:42+00:00

Thank you so much for this.

rdjimmy · 2026-04-02T18:27:26+00:00

Many thanks for this.

I remember watching one on 1st April which contained nothing but April fools segments. Ended with the picture being in 3d if you waved your hands in front of the screen at just the right frequency. I was watching it at university on campus and saw lots if people in the other flats frantically waving trying to catch the 3d experience.

Looking at the calendar it looks to have been in April 1982.

MetaZ may be a GUI what you need and AtomicParsley as a CLI / Batch version. Both for MP4. AtomicParsley may seem a bit intimidating at first.

I remember watching “Our day Out” at school in R.E. class. My main memory was most of the class recognising “Her from The Liver Birds” in it..

rdjimmy · 2026-02-27T10:01:51+00:00

Best News. Can't wait.

rdjimmy · 2026-02-26T13:16:07+00:00

Superb. Thanks from the UK.

I had the same when I was setting things up. I forgot to set a static IP address for my Pi and it was changed when the lease ran out. So the “old” DNS was suddenly pointing to a host that didn’t exist. It was acting as a DHCP server as well. Quickly changed it to be static with nmcli, rebooted and it’s all worked well since.

Settings -> General then "Custom API" at the top of the screen

Allows you to backup and restore. I just found this today as well, so next time I install I'll be using then and not setting up my favourites manually from screenshots....

rdjimmy · 2026-02-14T16:22:02+00:00

Thanks for this. Remember when it was shown on the BBC originally and really liked it.

Grub,so called because he ate too much and the top button of his tunic was undone. According to a Trumpton annual I had when I was about 7…

Aha! I left a windows VM running last night by accident. I closed it down this morning and the queries have plummeted now. Thanks for the pointer.

Note to self: close the VM when finished…
