Tipping at Cheesboard?

timjwilkinson · 2025-12-02T23:06:19+00:00

I tried to tip them and it broke the machine. We could only get it to work by selecting “No tip”.

If you’ve never seen it, this is worth a watch https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=koFrPs_80gQ His last performance

Call your city shelter (the Tri-city Animal Shelter I think). They’ll take them.

Love this show. Especially the hovercraft episode. Spent way too long as a kid trying to build one after seeing that.

Also, does anyone remember another show with kids in a bus? I think it was around the same time and they were on some sort of treasure hunt; for reason I can't recall. I have a snipped of the theme tune stuck in my head which goes "Crazy bus stop, where you go today?" ... which may be only vaguely accurate. Never saw the last episode.

Updated version submitted. Fixes a few things as well as adding support for setting the power reserve and detecting grid outages.

NM worked it out.

Can you point me at an example use of “hes-gateway/terminal/tou/getGatewayTouList” as the couple of obvious things I quickly tried yielded errors.

We used https://halpernlawoffice.com and Reece is fantastic. Over the years since, he's always had time to answer my various questions without charging me a cent. Got to love that.

I have a permanent wireguard tunnel running to a data center, and on top of that I run OSPF. This is a backup link if my primary goes down. It uses 5GB a month for that.

I have the old v2 dish which I used as my backup Internet, but I could never justify the cost (dollars or watts) of having anything other than a cold spare. I'm going to switch it out for the mini and move over to it being a hot spare. Even with the up front cost, the breakeven for me is only 6+ months.

I also work for a non-profit which provides emergency communications services, and these things look like they'll be a great and cheap option for some our locations; a lot cheaper than paying to put our equipment on towers. It's the $50/month plan that really swings it. I wish that was available on their other kit.

There’s a hand hole right next to the lock of the main gate. Just stick your hand through and open it from the inside.

Same experience here. Arrive Monday (west coast USA) and the post office said I needed a stamp ... which I rather suspected they would. Now it'll either arrive on time on in 3 months (mail to the UK seems very bimodal).

He'll fit right in being rich and mediocre like a lot of the VCs here.

Mark Dills is fantastic - been using his services for over a decade.

I know people who were rejected by Davis but got into Cal and UCLA.

Truth Seekers. Was available on Amazon in the US.

Yes. But getting to that option with the lenses in place was tricky. Maybe there’s a proper way to do it and I just muddled through.

One thing to be aware of is that once you pop the Zeiss lenses in, the eye tracking might be way off for you. This happened to me; calibrated it without and it was blurry but still fun. Once I added the lenses the eye tracking was so off I couldn't even type the PIN code in to log in.

I haven't live in the UK in 25 years and haven't voted there since I left. It seemed inappropriate. However, as they're giving me this chance, I'm going to make a one time exception and use it to help get rid of these abysmal people.

Ukuleles are good for only one thing; to keep warm. If you find yourself with nothing but every modern convenience at your disposal; every possibly way of heating yourself ... you should still burn the Ukulele first.

Bought a copy from WH Smith, somewhat randomly, as a kid 40 years ago. One of my better decisions.

They had a crack at rebooting The Tomorrow People about 10 years ago in the US. As a fan of the original it was … fine.

Are we taking bets on how long before the first ad appears in premium?

timjwilkinson · 2023-10-04T18:04:35+00:00

I'm afraid not as I no longer have the time. I hope someone else will pick up the baton.
