It’s easily got to the point where home broadband is not the limiting factor. We are a home of 2 people and our 500Mbps is more than sufficient.
At work we found that people’s home WiFi is way more limiting than the incoming connection.
This is amazing and exactly what I needed to see this morning.
Hate to be the one to tell you this, but it looks like she was searching for it.
I am about an hour and 20 minutes into it. I would say that the animation is fantastic - visually it is beautiful. The sound mix is great and is really filling the room. The story is meh - I am approaching this from a ‘low mental effort US action film’ point of view and I think I’ll be ok to watch to the end.
The thing that is bugging me the most is that they haven’t even tried to come up with an alien point of view. The characters might as well be human, and American at that.
I have no idea why James Cameron thought this needed to be 3hrs long. If a film goes over 2hrs it really needs to be a mini-series.
I got caught in a few showers yesterday so I think I will hide from the rain today. I might go and get my hair cut and then relax around the house. I have been looking for a suitable moment to watch Avatar 2 and this might be just that sort of day.
That plus if they are selling a non-standardised service to a business it can be challenging to work out the cost. Projects, consultancy, etc all need to be scoped and estimated.
Chef’s Table down near Cumberland Basin. I keep calling it Chef Stable.
I had to get my wedding ring resized to a smaller fit, as I kept flinging it across the room whenever I was wildly gesticulating. It’s now about the right size, although my finger has a wild range of circumference depending on the weather. Today it’s about right, but in winter I can still accidentally turn my ring into a projectile.
TIL: gesticulating is spelt with a g, not a j.
The radio is telling me there are lots of things on in the Bristol area today, including Southmead Festival, Chipping Sodbury Festival, Bath Carnival, and Bristol Pride.
Unfortunately the weather is looking not so good, and if i starts raining in the next hour or so then I might just potter around the house.
We are going out to a posh restaurant for dinner this evening.
You might want to go to specsavers… they can probably help you with that.
Biscuit of the day (BOTD)
What is your favourite biscuit? What biscuit will you be having with elevensies? What biscuit do you hate? What do you call a garibaldi?
Phil Westlake, who used to design IT systems for several large UK companies.
That’s who.
I get that a lot of my IT colleagues don’t want to faff around with self hosting email, or even running their own domain. But I really struggle with the idea that those who work in IT would ever trust their email to their ISP. That’s just asking for trouble.
The rose bush has done really well this year, producing a huge number of flowers. I dead-headed it at the weekend and I am expecting a second flowering later in the year.
One of our bushes appears to have died. I gave it a good prune in October and I think that’s what went and killed it. I checked a few branches and they were bone dry. I need to check the main trunk and see if there is any life left in it or if I should bite the bullet and pull it out.
Our buddleia has grown so voraciously that it has collapsed in the windy weather we have had over the last few days. I didn’t prune it back enough in the spring.
I had to check it wasn’t April 1st.
Fair play to them, if they think they can do better elsewhere then have at it.
They aren’t Discos unless the corners of your mouth are burning.
I sometimes think this is because of commercial real-estate, the death of the high-street, Pret not making as much money, etc.
But more often than not I think that it is because MPs and CEOs don’t actually like spending time with their families. Their work is their hobby, they don’t want to be ‘home with the kids’, and they like the office culture they have developed over their career. In the office they are important. At home they have to do the dishes.
I don’t get up Clifton much - I haven’t tried there yet. I’ll need to remember it next time I am in need of a burger. Thanks!
“Concerns” - sure, be concerned but let the trial play out. That’s the point of a trial, to assess if something works or not.
The problem with MPs is that they continually ignore facts in favour of stupidity.
I concur, but what type of salt and vinegar?
I voted (against the RT’s candidates and policies) as soon as I got the pack through. You have to be a member to vote.
I feel disgusted that groups like RT are trying to undermine institutions like the National Trust for their own aims.
