The joy of fixing something that has been broken for over 5 years!!
We had an electrical fault in a socket in the house that connected our dishwasher! But the dishwasher was broken and we didn't use the socket so it got left. Multiple times I tried to find the cause for the issue (a faulty earth) which only affected this one socket!
A had a suspicion that the fault lay behind a cupboard that was put in when we had the kitchen renovated but didn't have sufficient belief that made it worth ripping the cupboards out! Yesterday I freed the cupboard from the attachments and found a live socket and switch point! And inside the switch a disconnected earth wire! I reconnected the earth and the fault cleared.
Joy o joy ... But why couldn't the workmen that did the job have converted the switch and socket into junction boxes! Now I need to decide ~ put the cupboard back or do the conversions first!!
(Get an electrician in!!)

Woohoo... After years trying to get an NHS dentist appointment I finally got to see a Dental Therapist (overseas trained dentist waiting for UK approval) ... A lovely experience... Saved my front teeth 😬!!
Why can't the government sort out this issue with the lack of NHS dentists!! #NHS #Dentist #GovUK

@GreyAreaUK It looks like it ... I ventured over to the Bird site and loads complaining over there ... Plusnet have finally commented "I'm sorry to hear your internet is down, this sounds very frustrating! We're aware of a situation at the moment which is effecting a lot of customers. Currently we have no timescale to get this resolved." #plusnet

Round the houses with #PlusNet today trying to migrate from #Broadband and #PhoneLine to Broadband and #VOIP ahead of the #Dec2025 deadline!!
Finally placed the order to migrate to #SOGEA with PlusNet - now to wait and see if I lose my BB and/or phone line or whether it all goes smoothly. #FingersCrossed for Monday!!
Thanks to all @aaisp for their patience in walking me through the process.
I dread to think how others are going to cope with this as the target moves nearer!!

Swapped out my #ArgonOne case for a new #DeskPi case. All to get the #Pi4 shutting down cleanly with my #UPS but booting back up when all is OK again.
With default Pi passthrough power the unit would not stay down. So I tried to use a #SwitchBot but there was not enough space to install it on the ArgonOne. Fortunately OK on the DeskPi. The only issue was that the DeskPi install on Ubuntu did not work correctly!! A simple recompile and it worked a treat. Next step to join the dots ...!! -

Trump isn’t sending Patriots to Ukraine out of strategy or sympathy—it’s ego, plain and filthy. Every missile is a bargaining chip in his sick little game of self-worship. This isn’t foreign policy—it’s a narcissist’s transaction.

BOB MOULD
Patch The Sky
2016 U.S. pressingMy absolute musical hero.
No songwriter has ever had a greater impact on my life than Bob.
Whether it be Husker Du, Sugar, or his solo albums, Bob’s impact on my life could never truly be measured.
I owe the entirety of my creative life to him.This run of six albums that Bob’s been on has been nothing short of miraculous. From Silver Age straight up to this year’s Here We Go Crazy, Bob has been as big, melodic, angry and vital sounding as ever.
Of these last six phenomenal records, this one is my favorite. Every single song is incredible. From the opening notes of “Voices In My Head”, it DOES NOT LET UP.
“Hold On” might be my favorite Bob song ever not named “Egooverride”.
When Bob passes on, there will be a part of me that breaks that will never be repaired.
