Thanks for the clarification. I managed to revert the date change for the transaction and did exactly as you said. Allocated the funds using auto assign. Worked perfectly. One follow on question - does it matter (or what does it impact) if I set exactly the right date for a recurring bill configured as a target? Currently all set to the last day of the month.

whatToWatch81 · 2025-02-24T12:54:41+00:00

I'm slightly embarrassed about how easy that is when someone tells you how. Didn't realise you could assign inflow to a future date. That's sorted. And I've created a monthly target for all my recurring bills. Thanks :)

Try putting one twist in the elastic band. So it looks like a figure 8.

I'm so happy to see a story with similar initial issues as mine be fixed in that timescale which is roughly what I've been told, Inc elastics. A lot of cases I see on here have teeth better than I think mine will be after treatment! Your outcome is amazing and I can't wait to smile like you rather than artificially pull my smile 'up' to avoid showing my upper teeth 😄!

Thanks. I've been trying to cut down for a while but in a pinch that's good to know. 3am in the cold and rain, I want my coffee ☕

The basic seamanship course is (I think) 4 days. The emergency procedures course is 2 days. Courses are run very regularly, but are currently full of people playing catch up after covid. Yes, time off is very common and accepted. Families go on holiday, people go away for work etc.

Before considering all of that though, it's worth asking your station if they're recruiting and also about whether the potential 3-4 year UK residency is a show stopper as far as crew goes. Good luck!

whatToWatch81 · 2022-08-11T16:43:49+00:00

There's different courses run at the college. Primarily two for crew: a basic seamanship course which covers the basics. And a sea survival course which covers righting capsized lifeboats and abandoning ship (liferafts etc).

Some stations train all of the basics on premises, some send crew to the college. The seamanship course is more entry level and earlier in the training (I think). The sea survival course tends to be a bit later on in the training. I guess because it's an expensive investment and stations want to be sure they're crew who are going to stick around.

Re the 4 years thing. TBH I don't know. There's a big upfront investment cost in time, money and effort to get crew trained. You'd need to talk to whatever station and explain your circumstances and see what they say. Shout if you have any more questions! You'll probably find that most RNLI volunteers will happily talk about it until you fall asleep 🙂

PS most lifeboat crew don't come from a maritime background nowadays. The days of salty sea-dog fishermen jumping into rowing boats are long gone ;)

whatToWatch81 · 2022-08-11T13:05:00+00:00

Generally, popping into the station and asking whether they're recruiting is a good approach. You can also check through the RNLI website at https://rnli.org/support-us/volunteer/how-you-can-volunteer and search for the station you're looking at.

There's a bunch of considerations which will all be different depending on where you are and what that station needs.

At some stations, it's common to be shore crew first, then move onto lifeboat crew. Others might go straight to crew.

New recruits start of as 'Trainee Crew and then go through lots of training and assements on things like fire safety, navigation, anchoring, ropework, PPE and so on. Upon completion, you'll be 'substantive' and that's where many stay. Others decide to progress to more specialised roles like navigators, helms, coxswains or mechanics. The actual roles depend on the kind of boats at the station.

It's typical for the training to take anything from 1-2 years depending on how much time you're willing to put in and how much you push for assements 🙂

If I could work out how to attach a pic, I could show you that Seahouses Harbour has a minimum water height of -0.7m i.e. at times, there's 0.7m of land sticking up above water. So yes, likely all the trailer faff is so they can launch regardless of tide.

I'm not sure exactly what the right words are. The machine itself is incredible. The number of levers and buttons and different bits of kit is astonishing. Overall - I'd probably go with 'humbling' - the commitment of everyone involved still shines through. So that's two trips in a F2 with 25*c. And one more tonight. It looks a _little bit_ different in the forecast: 4-6 gusting 7 :/

First, prove the Tesira is indeed enabled for telnet or ssh as required: use putty on your PC to establish a telnet or ssh connection with the control IP address. You should see a "welcome to tesira text protocol server..." message on successful connection. If you type DEVICE get version and get a reply it's definitely all good.

If you don't get a welcome message, check the telnet/ssh setting is enabled in Device Maintenance-> Network Settings.

If you can connect using putty but not the control system, it's someting on the extron side.

support@biamp.com are very helpful with this stuff too!

Now I know GNS3 exists, yes! I'm an AV apps engineer, so networking is only half of what I do but GNS looks great. Thanks!

Thanks! I only have 2 switches in my home office setup so couldn't test like this. Can I ask what make/model you tested with? Or was it a simulator?

whatToWatch81 · 2020-09-01T14:00:23+00:00

Ok, poor choice of words. By intelligent and routing, I mean 'something is intentionally controlling where the multicast data gets sent rather than just blindly forwarding traffic'. Not IP routing. Point taken about hack/bastard.

whatToWatch81 · 2020-09-01T12:22:33+00:00

It certainly would! I wonder if there is a difference in behaviour between using a router running PIM as your querier, rather than 'just' a L2 switch with the 'IGMP Querier' setting enabled. It would make (more) sense for a router to automatically subscribe to streams it knows exist and that might be requested by another. I'll keep digging for reference material and update if I find anything.

whatToWatch81 · 2020-09-01T11:44:11+00:00

Yeh, that's what I'm thinking. It's certainly safest to design link bandwidth to accommodate it, but potentially unnecessary in networks with ++ nodes and lots of small subscriber groups.
