Fixing networks in that kind of environment sounds like something even I could do.
On the other hand, if I were to do that then your competition in NZ would increase by, what, 200%?  :-&

Oh dear.. what have you done, Steve? Tell all...

Thanks :) 

And I actually had to google paraffin budgies - never heard that term before!

I heard it from a Britannia 767 pilot on a visit to the cockpit as we flew to Florida in 1998 and it's stayed with me. Before all the shenanigans.

Does anybody use the "Like" / thumbs up-down feature? I find myself drawn to it.

"I know fuck all about electronics and Raspberry Pis and such"

Always good to pitch in some non sequiturs, baffle 'em with bullshit.

I'm still checking in occasionally, when I remember.

Still doing web-development and devops for Rebellion (Sniper Elite) / 2000 AD (Judge Dredd). Got married in July last year in New York (fuck me, NYC is hot in July), to a native New Yorker no-less. Not sure how I convinced her to not only marry me, but to move to the UK and live in Banbury, but I did!

Also, I actually committed some code to Beehive's Github repository recently. No, really.

I still occasionally have day dreams about rewriting Beehive using some decent frameworks (i.e. Laravel and Angular), but then I remember how much functionality Beehive has and how long it took to get it this far and I decide that's a stupid idea.

I've been jonesing for Sniper Elite, especially the zombie army pack. Will need to upgrade system (xp) first.

Definitely not worth the effort!

Yep, saw the marriage stuff on FB - congrats Matt. How did you find NYC by the way - we went there for our honeymoon and it was fantastic.

I also got married a couple of years back, which was fun! Just bought a house too up here in Scotland, we're supposed to get the keys on 11th May, so some busy weeks coming up. Got the man-cave allocated already, which is the main part.

Yep, being a teenager at college whilst part of the original PCFF seems like such a long time ago...

I love NYC. Ultimately we have plans to try and move back there, but it won't be for a few years yet.

If you can, do it. IT is so much hotter over there and paid SO much better!

..really? Genuine question, like. Possibly a subject best mulled over a beer, but *babies* requiring attention...

Wow, what's going on. This must be the most posts made here in years :D

I blame Ken.

That it's gone quiet here?

No just in general.

I think he has a lot to answer for :@

He's probably 3d printed himself a new forum. Complete with provocative dragons.

WTF is a proactive dragon? Maybe he's printed a model of each of us and sits there talking to them instead, possibly running some AI on a Pi so they can talk back.
