Other What Makes Your Life, Meh?

Meant to say this earlier.

I can’t believe that guy was harassing Newport Council and Natural Resources Wales for permission to dig up the rubbish tip for so long…

Like… my dude… You ain’t getting it back. You tossed out the drive 12 years ago and then had the gall to blame your missus (who thankfully became your ex-missus a very long time ago) for your own cockup. The area of the tip it was dumped in contains 15,000 tonnes of waste. You f’ed up and it is gone.

Thankfully the high court tossed his legal case out the window about a year ago. That seems to be the end of it.

 

Yeah it's pretty wild, some people have no sense.

 

And, some are really stupid...

 

For some reason paypals pay in 3 won't work for me anymore. Never had an issue never missed a payment, or had issues but tried on Argos last month and it just said not available, and then again tonight on my dogos medication, I get 3 months worth at a time so I so a pay in 3 option, done it for my last order this time it just instantly says not available ..

So I ended up paying for all 3 months today.. no clue why it stopped working..

 

Got asked Monday can I stop till 6 at work. Thought it's only 2 hours fine I'll stop. Apparently they emailed me and someone else to say they got it wrong it's 6-8 we needed someone onsite, we have a event at our company should be no more than 10 ppl . There are 36 cars in my carpark and no end in sight starting to think a 8 finish isn't on the cards either

 

Someone has cloned my debit card.

[Edit] bank has resolved the issue and returned the money. I had to cut up my card though and I'm awaiting the replacement, so only slightly less meh

 

Housemate allowed her mother and someone else to move in the same room with her. Nice, overcrowded house, thanks

Made the landlord aware. Guessing she's getting slapped with section 8

Not my problem

 

I managed to fubar my windows install on my laptop trying to edit the RGB and co putton and after a day of trying couldn't reverse it so now factory resetting it and trying to remember all the games and apps I had installed ready for my holiday.




*** Oh joy for some dam reason there is how 39 versions 365 and one note thanks Microsoft I wanted to spend 5 hours removing shite I didn't ask for or want

 

Having a nice little Mechwarrior 5 Mercs session this morning and the phone rings with a mobile number: Cue heavy Indian voice: "Hello, this is Amazon..."

And that's as far as I let it go.

 

You look positively thrilled...

 

You forgot your ring light. It hides-ish the bags under the eyes.

 

You may have mentioned before, but: which camera?

‘Cos the mic looks the part at least.

 

Yeah, I thought it would be a wireless DJI or similar, they seem to be the 'go-to' these days.

Honestly... more fool the people lugging around the broadcast cameras & studio lights. Your 'Stupid Lollipop Camera for Content Creators' will do excellent quality video, and won't need a lot of faff to set up a shoot. Sure, more lighting is always good - capturing photons is the name of the game - but your setup is the difference between "grabbing someone for a quick chat" versus "5-10 minutes of setting up the shot and microphones beforehand".

Of course, motivation to actually do those things - or even be there in the first place - is something that neither camera nor microphones can help with .

 

When in Germany...



You must always...



Expect the wurst.



I'll let myself out.
