Of Windows 10 yep. It's our standard troubleshooting at work and cures 90 % of issues, the other 10% mean directory and kernel hunting

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Sh*te cheese screws. I knew the screws that hold the rear fairing on were tight so I put my full weight on the impact driver and used a nice sharp new bit but it just twisted out the centre of the damned screw so now it is down to the Dremel and manual impact driver/club hammer. If they had used copper grease, cheese screws would have been OK.

Next time don't put any weight or pressure on the impact. Pressing down or turning. That's usually what strips screws out and breaks bits. Just make sure you have the correct bit, hold it in place and give it a few licks from the hammer and be amazed.

Nice, enjoy.
Best get the bike out to go to work, and get rid of the cat. Mangy things anyway. |

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
We have 2 dogs and one carpet. I can't think of a single occasion when they've been sick anywhere other than on the carpet. I think they actually run off upstairs just to puke on it.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Quorn.
Deduced that I am quorn intolerant. It's taken years as I don't often eat the stuff because I don't like it, so it's not a major loss. But the intolerance is horrendous and having Joe worked it out I've (obviously) Googled it. Now I find I am far from the only person and indeed there are calls to ban the stuff. They won't ban it because "it doesn't cause lasting damage" |
