I bought an old Kyosho Inferno 1/8th scale nitro car to rebuild and convert to eletric. The motor had blown and been removed and the car was pretty worn out and tired.

Well godaddy has decided to stop allowing people with less than 50 domains to automatically update their DNS records. This means I can't keep Merlins-Bar automatically pointing to my server if my IP changes!

The useless cunt's didn't even have the decency to inform anyone they were doing it!

Fuck 'em. Time to change to a better company. There might be some disruption until it's sorted.

This happened in South Carolina on the 12th of September. I think the train won.

My 17 year old beautiful big sweet boy has suffered with mouth inflammation that makes eating difficult and painful for about 18 months. He's had injections every 3 weeks to help with it but slowly it got worse. Over the weekend we decided it was the right time to call it.

Thanks for all the love little man. Rest well.

I was playing around with LMStudio, an ai chat system you can run on your own computer. It can use various freely available LLM models to provide chat assistance like chatgpt. I asked it about lasagne... yikes!

Who would have thought that being out of the EU would mean you aren't part of EU schemes!?!

It's amazing that these shitty media scumbags can still blame the EU for all the UK's problems even though we aren't in the EU any more. :/

*Note the beautiful carpet and lovely wood-chip wallpaper :/

I look forward to redecorating this house and getting rid of the all the old wallpaper and carpets :D

Charlie is doing well for 16. He has to have steroid injections every 3 weeks to help him out but for an old cat he's very happy.

The new walking dead games looks amazing XD

It's looks almost as good as that recent Gollum game!

In the UK the main opposition party to the government managed to get a enquiry started on Boris Johnsons, and the government of the time, handling of the pandemic. The group running the enquiry are currently interviewing various people about what happened. They also already have emails and phone messages from that time from most of the people involved. Some of the revelations are mind blowing, like BJ thinking that a video he saw on youtube of a guy blowing a hair dryer up his nose was a viable way to deal with with covid! He then raised this issue with the UK's 2 top scientific advisers in a top level government meeting!?!?!

This video is a great guy called Phil who talks about UK politics every day. He often talks about Brexit disasters and government corruption. I enjoy his videos, but it's a shame it's real and not a comedy!

...wait... ...Some cunt's knocked it down!

Sadly I'm not joking. My new house is a semi-detached so I share a wall, and a chimney, with the house next door. The house next door is a rental and the owners have been doing repairs on the properties they own. They have been replacing roof tiles and removing the end chimneys, each house has a chimney on the end of and a shared chimney in the middle. I guess they think removing the chimney means less to go wrong and less chance of it leaking in the future.

The other two houses they own locally have already been done and they only removed the end chimney and left the middle chimney alone. For some reason today they started on my neighbours roof and before anyone knew what was happening they removed the middle chimney. It's a major fuck up!

It is without question illegal to dismantle someone's property without them giving permission first, and I wouldn't have given permission anyway. I have taken photos of the hole in the roof where the chimney was as well as the numerous damaged tiles where bricks from the chimney rolled down the roof and broke them.

Thankfully my neighbour next door is great and she's given me the name and mobile phone number of the person managing the repairs. I've sent them a message and will hopefully hear back soon. I'm going to wait and see how they react before I do anything else. Once I get a feeling for how they are I will decide whether to take legal action against them or not.

I've only been in this house just over a week and some bastard has already fucked it up!

Other than this I'm enjoying being in my new home.

Moving done, sort of. After 3 box van loads of shit moved there is still another 1 left at the old house. I'll get it one day but for now fuck that.

I have stuff every where it's going to take months to sort it out :/

Charlie cat seems to be happy enough. He's enjoying exploring the new house and sleeping on the carpets.

I am exhausted and hurt like hell! What a time to be alive!

Also Futurama is back, so that's nice. And the last series of Archer soon.

I'm moving this weekend and the server will be down from Saturday or Sunday until Monday. It's possible it'll be down Friday and may be intermittently up and down as I move stuff around in old house getting ready to move.

Moving is so much fun :/

So I just got confirmation from the local authority that I can build a workshop in my garden exactly where I want it.

Normally I wouldn't need permission for this as it's below a minimum size that requires planning permission, but because of the strange fact that my house is effectively built back to front means I had to get permission. *The back door of my new house is actually the front door!?!? XD

In the UK you need planning permission to build a shed in front of a house but not behind it. It's all pretty confusing! XD

But the good news is I can go ahead with it whenever I want without needing any other checks or permission.

I won't be building it until I live there, whenever that is, but it's good to know it won't be a problem.

26C but the humidity feel like 200% :S

There is also the sounds of thunder now so humidity is likely to get worse this evening :(

Why does this even exist!?! XD

Well there was a little power cut last night and the server rebooted. That's ok, it can cope with that. However I had fucked up my openvpn configuration, from months ago, and accidentally left my client connection details in the wrong place. On rebooting those client connections kicked in and caused the server to be unreachable. I didn't know that was the problem and have spent hours trying to figure it out. Problem is now identified and fixed.

Just another 'Go Fuck Yourself' from the universe :/
