Heavy streamers of 4k and 8k quality videos + many gamers downloading 100gb game updates would chew up a lot of the throughput of a baby connection <100mb.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Arrived into work before 5 this morning, colleague goes home and I make my breakfast.

Woke up near enough 0730 and have no idea where my porridge went, can't remember eating it. :D

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

That one went viral on the NI news sites, it's not in a bad area by any means but the decor is well above what you'd expect from the location. It's stunning + that row has a decent laneway at the...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Had a chat with a mortgage advisor today who was surprised that I didn't really want to borrow anywhere near the max amount that I could (about 130k) I'd be looking at a max of 85k which isn't bad at...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Luckily for me there's been a massive shortage in licenced operatives so while I could walk into a new job this afternoon, companies have had to bend over backwards to keep good staff on. Could be...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Although I've been considered permanant at work since the day I started, my contract was amended today to reflect.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

MOT'd Tracer for the first time since sometime in 2019. Due to the broken ramp scandal and covids we have been driving/riding mostly under extensions with little to no testing.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Wired in the bypass relay, two grounds and a permanant 12v live feed for my towbar electrics and didn't set anything on fire.

It's a citroen so it'll probably self combust as some stage anyway

Our schedulers managed to allow all the temps to be off on holiday(after cancelling our holidays) so I'm here on my own today and it's absolute bliss.
