Ok this is the last thing I'm gonna say on this matter. I've saved my dets on Chrome. I've written it in my book. I'll get the man to save it on every possible thing he can think of.
The reason I persevered is because I actually like you guys and it's a pretty positive atmosphere here and I'm a positive person.
I swear when I got logged out the conversation between my husband and I went something like "have you tried Google's thingy tdhvo5s#%@&/4""pqsqueezing your left teste and then check your emails?". Me: huh. You do it. I'll make coffees.
i gave up and set up a new account because i swear my password is correct because it's my only saved password on chrome, but it just wouldn't go through
I tried everything. New account several times. I set up a new email. Then I'm sitting having my coffee and I thought I know my password is somewhat correct what about if I try 2 of my passwords together and it worked. Jfc. I've been trying since 6pm last night.
Every year I go to Brunswick to buy xmas panettones and other treats. They are usually sold out by the 1st week of Dec . This year prices are up again and the shelves were still full. Talking to another customer she was telling me they just can't afford it, entertaining family and friends they buy quite a few and that would quickly add up to close to $200 each event.
My family used to gift fruitcake at Xmas. These things weighed multiple kilos, were damn near solid fruit, and could almost get you drunk by smell. The cost now would be mindboggling!
Got an interview for the place that headhunted me on Thursday.
Where I am now is ok, just a bit of a dead end as far as IT goes. Small to medium sized software company. But the pay is 15% better at the other place.
Let’s see how we go. I’ll give em the ol razzle dazzle lol
Found out today that three of my colleagues have Covid and I have mild symptoms that I thought were hayfever, and decided to test and I too have the spicy cough. I'm a bit gutted as it's my mums birthday on Wednesday and we were meant to see my cousin before she flys off to live in Ireland on Saturday. Quite upset tbh but feeling okay overall.
Combination of a few things has meant last week was extremely quiet at work, haven't had to do much at all. Looks like it's going to stay that way for the rest of the week until we close for Christmas on Thursday! A welcome relief with other nonsense at work still ongoing
Love that show, such a great premise. Jason Lee is great in Mallrats too and Ethan Suplee has a cameo in it. (I just googled Ethan to make sure I had his surname correct...and wow, he's ripped AF now)
In case anybody hasn't seen, our instance updated and this new version of Lemmy has made enabling 2 factor authentication really really easy to set up. Before you had to fuck around with the settings and get a long code, type that out in your auth app, and then get another long code and type it into your account, but now it's just like setting up any other 2fa system: you scan a QR code in your auth app and you're linked!
Also everybody's 2fa has been turned off, so if you previously had it setup you need to do it again
And for anyone who didn't have it, now's a great time to turn it on! I can recommend authy, as it has device sync and backups (so if you break or lose your phone, you can recover your 2fa codes and still log in)
If one more person tries to push something through before Christmas I'm gonna tell them to f off.
My manager knows what I've got on, if they wanna push something through they can. Everyone else can get stuffed. Only 4 days left, god forbid we just coast to shutdown.
for reals. Boss keeps trying to ramp up stuff with sites and I'm like "dude, you may have been producing content longer, but Ive been front line with the cinemas for 12 fucking years, outside of emergency repairs no one's doing shit to their equipment until after the holiday rush. All you're doing is pissing me AND them off."
Tradies skedaddled for the day, His Lordship immediately ran to take a shit. Underhouse looks oddly more open and yet more crowded, depending on where you look. (new inverter much smaller than old gas ducting, but ducts themselves slightly larger. And shinier, so more visible)
Watching a Flemish series on Netflix. The subtitles make the characters look better than they are.
The swearing is truly appalling, the equivalent of saying fucking cunt or what is the worst thing to say in Australia, but the medieval Vlaamse swears is translated literally and comes across as quaint 🙄
I found this with Norwegian Taskmaster. I know just enough German to be able to tell the subtitles are NOT what was said even without knowing exactly what was.

Sigh. My WGAC order is a shambles! First I got an email from them back in November inviting me to purchase a Christmas themed toilet paper and I agreed and ordered it. Then I heard nothing for a while. When I enquired about it they said they'd run out. They billed and reimbursed me twice. I said I'm going to run out of toilet paper soon, so just send the regular stuff, and can I add some boxes of tissues and kitchen towel rolls as well. No problem, the items will likely be shipped separately. I got the kitchen towel rolls and boxes of tissues within a couple of days. No toilet paper. My WGAC account says the TP order has been "fulfilled." Understanding that there are delays with things this time of year, I reached out to customer service after a week and a bit, where's my toilet paper? They hadn't given me a tracking number for me to see for myself where it'd gone. They didn't know what happened, but said they'd just ship a new order of toilet paper while they investigated what happened to the other order. No problem. I check what's shipping and it's boxes of tissues and kitchen towel rolls, not toilet paper! I email them. Nothing. I email them again. In the meantime I'm getting "your order has been processed," "your order has been packed," "your order is onboard for delivery," "your delivery has been delayed" messages from ANC. I get an email from WGAC this morning saying someone will be in touch with me as soon as they can. Over the weekend I had to buy toilet paper from the supermarket (Aldi. Pretty good actually). I have just been delivered 2 more boxes, of boxes of tissues and kitchen towel rolls! At this point they can just reimburse me the $14 difference in price and I'll just delete my account. Found out their TP is made in China anyway.
There's heaps of different themes (they call them Skins in the wiki), or UIs I guess. I'm currently running Amber with a few tweaks through the setting of the theme itself. The default I think is called Confluence maybe...
There's lots you can try, even ones that make it look like an apple Tv.
Would also recommend looking into real-debrid and running the Seren add-on.
If you're going to use Real Debrid and have an Android TV device of some sort (Nvidia Shield, Chromecast with Google TV, the sketchy Android TV boxes that Jaycar sell with 10 year old Android versions, etc), then you may as well use a more modern app like Weyd or Syncler. Much nicer UX that's more responsive.
