Nope. I wear glasses, and I am guessing this won’t work well for me… Even if I did want to wear a headset for 8+ hours a day (which I don’t).
Would you work like this?
Or maybe…. Just maybe, the UK could go look at how New Zealand does things. There are alternatives!
We need to utilise shale gas for an independent energy future.

Searching for property in a city you have only just arrived, is not much fun.

After a lengthy process, we are moving to New Zealand. Looking forward to continuing our family journey, down under!

I have been quiet on here for quite some time now. Whilst there are many reasons for this, the biggest one by far is my family’s decision to make a big lifestyle change….

Don’t threaten me with a good time!

Another NFT dumpster fire, selling things that don’t belong to them. Earlier in the week, some numpty was selling “colours”.

Started the day with my brain refusing to tell me the master password for my password manager. That was a fun few minutes. 😐 #monday
Doesn’t sound very secure.
Messenger’s end-to-end encrypted chats and calls are available to everyone theverge.com/2022/1/27/22904…
I asked @JennyBear2007 how much she thought a new MacBook would set me back earlier. Her guess was more than it costs. Don’t know if this gives me the OK to buy one, or if this is a trap.

I will never understand this pricing…
Yesterday, I completed my tax return and almost had a heart attack over the amount of tax owed. …And then my money gets spent on shit like this, for talentless, over-promoted morons, who think people are impressed by private jets. independent.co.uk/travel/new…
The critical bug that I am dealing with today, appears to be caused by date formats and the @MSPowerBI embedded report configuration object. Something that has been working for years, suddenly broken. Don’t fancy my chances of quickly explaining this one to MS support. 😕

Looks as though the bug is resolved with the latest version of the PowerBI-client package (2.19.1) I was only 2 builds behind (2.18.6) but this was enough to fix the issue.
Hey @mossofbath Is it standard practice to charge people £70 and not actually do any work? An elderly neighbour of mine had issues with her smart TV, you arrived, did nothing, then charged her for it. We fixed the issue, so I don’t rate your skills much either.

There’s probably good reason for this, but I wish there was more granular control on the size of #PowerBI embedded capacity sizes.

What I really want to be able to do, is scale up/down when required… but just by CPU. Don’t want to have to jump from 4 v-cores to 8 v-cores and pay for the memory we don’t need. Always doubling cost between SKU’s hits the wallet hard.

Also… when did iPhones start being able to select text from an image?
