This Instant And Moment - 2024!

Went to my daughter's gymnastics party earlier.

They had a "parents do gym skills" thing, and I got the press-up challenge. I got down and had done 30odd before I was told it hadn't started yet. I was then fairly tired and lost the "how many in 10 seconds".

The gym coach said my form was good though, so small comforts, eh?
 
Fair play the service from dell warrenty support is brilliant


Had an issue with my brand new second hand Dell 5330 i5 12th gen laptop

Not charging ,

they are coming out tomorrow to replace the motherboard

I was worried id have to supply original purchase invoice from a mainstream supplier.

No hassle and great service,

Really tempted to see if my printer that's been idle for about 3 years will print out something for me or whether I should write it by hand...

AFAIK dell only care about the service tag code telling them whether that product still has warranty or not

I've got a cheap laser which rarely gets used - so far works fine with being left literally years between uses aside from smoking a bit (possibly due to dust) and for some reason leaving a slight mark on the page margin half-way down the page. If an inkjet or similar might be a different story.

it prints blank pages and then gives an error about the ink cartridges when I try to do the advanced head cleaner..
I don't think I've used it since 2018.

got a few really feint black lines to show up brute force printing, seems it's well and truly dry
Printer still thinks it at 30% black ink :/

Might be full of ink but the heads will be well and truly blocked.

Try soaking the heads in warm isopropyl alcohol for at least a few hours.
 
I'm in the process of wrapping up some Christmas presents.

Currently trying to remember if the normal process for wrapping presents for 2 and 3 year olds is to use small bits of scotch tape sparingly, or 2 inch wide clear packing tape like i'm trying to stop something escaping from it.
Either way I'm probably going to run out, i've only got about 4 rolls of magic tape, and a dozen or so of the packing tape;)

Damn I wish I could sleep through 6hr+ continuously. Waking up by a not-a-alarm is the best feeling only to have dread 10s later when you realise it's not a Saturday.
 
Saw in the news a pic of Luigi Mangione as a saint.

wonder what would happen if millions of people on social media changed their profile pic to him., do you think socials would start shadow banning people?
