    Got a real horrible suspicion Israel has just fired off a shot in the next middle eastern conflict. No evidence, completely wild speculation on my behalf. But after the whole Stuxnet business you’d be crazy to underestimate 'em.

    Edit: really hope I’m wrong here! just want to say it so that if it turns out this way I can point back to it and go “See! i told you I wasn’t crazy!”

      Anything’s possible I guess. But I saw some footage on tv and it’s pea soup fog density in the area. Plausible they just got too close to the ground. But also you’d think that pilots in that region should be experienced flying in foggy mountainous area. From what I understand of the politics his death likely won’t cause any significant changes. But could be revenge or a warning shot. Could be genuine accident. We’ll never know.

      That’s my theory as well. I mean, it wouldn’t be the first time they’ve fucked with Iran. Also I’m sure the US is well aware of what’s going on.

    Getting a bit sick of going over to the p’s place and half the conversation is about them feeling cold. Tonight was 6 times. Their place is at 23c.

    I’ve tried to explain layering with light clothes, doing some light activity a few times a day when they feel it, thermals…

    I understand it becomes hard to regulate temp. at that age which is why layering is a good one. Gets a bit hot, take one off… not doing it for you put it back on rinse and repeat.

    They’ve been on so many trips to cold places over the years and they’re swimming in warm clothing, but they just… don’t.

    It’s like complaining about being rained on when you’re holding an expensive unopened umbrella.

    Frustrating.

      It’s likely to be circulation issues more than actual cold, in which case extra clothing does not help as much. More activity would be helpful as that stimulates circulation, but an electric heated blanket might be a good option for them.

    In the movie “As good as it gets”, Melvin pays for a doctor for Carols kid. I’d like to be rich enough to pay for a doctor who listens to me about my health problems and helps find actual solutions.

    The “sorry can’t help, ” stuff from lazy doctors who don’t care is just bullshit. (Private and bulk bill). Worse is the “never seen that before” don’t know from specialists.

    I just want some sleep without my nose blocking up and leaving me with headaches, constant exhaustion etc. let alone the other disabling, life fucking up stuff. But I look fine on the outside.

    I really don’t care for all this AI crap that the likes of Google and Instagram are trying to push. Like seriously fuck off with it. It’s annoying.

      The big problem is that they are taking the same sort of approach that Microsoft did with it’s stupid paperclip that everyone hated. People want useful tools, not a system which actually blocks you from doing what you want and instead constantly tries to override what you want to do and know.

    Got a slight headache today.

    Thinking about a haircut after I finish work then a trip to Bunnings for a sealant.

    Just hope the weather holds out and the headache doesn’t get much worse.

    Ugh I just want to strangle Microsoft sometimes. I’m constantly getting annoying notifications for shit I don’t care about, but the one time I get an important email they decide to just not bother sending the notification 😐

    I thought that perhaps I was not paying attention and dismissed the notification, but my phone logs 24 hours of notifications and they really never did. Apparently at 8:52am they sent me a notification to say they were optimising the database, so that’s nice. As long as I know what background tasks it’s doing that’s all that matters I suppose 🤦‍♂️

    Gotta love people on social media who are told by multiple people that they are basically wrong in what they are saying and just double down and start insulting everyone. Not a great character trait.

    Just loaded up my phone with a bunch of new audiobooks which I obtained completely legally and would never dream of getting from torrents. Looking forward to getting stuck into a new story.

      I too would never dream of getting books off torrents, especially not after spending $15 for a book audible are now going to cancel in a week.

        I nearly commented yesterday to say it was still there. And muse at what it takes to actually have your car towed. I’m pretty sure a car parked in front of a city loop station in Melbourne would have been towed on the first day. In fact, a friend had her car towed from Flinders St about 4:05pm after it became a clearway at 4 one time. That was an expensive coffee!

    So I think it went ok. I almost accidentally said my non Aussie name lol

    But otherwise I did the best I could. It was with 3 people. The tech side wasn’t as intense as I thought. They were happy with what I knew how to do in AD.

    Still going to continue studying AD and then Azure just to get my skills up regardless.

    I hate the amount of wax that apples are coated in these days. I used to love biting into an apple, now I prefer to peel them, but then the flavour is not the same, so usually just choose other fruits instead. Can we start a campaign to Unwax the Apple.
