Only put it in a few days ago. But the motion-activated water sprinkler worked at 3am for this kid who wanted to try our gate. Nice.

A rare example of common sense:

"Update to your Microsoft Age Verification Status

Due to your longstanding account activity, we’ve estimated your profile to be an adult account and updated its age verification status to “Verified.”"

Bacon on a washing line then

"We'd like to give you the opportunity to showcase your application by recording a short 60 second video introduction.

You can record it in just a few clicks from your mobile or desktop device, and there are no downloads required."

This shit is getting annoyingly popular. I do not like it.

Just seen the volunteer opportunities list for the Rugby World Cup #RWC
It reads like they want to run the whole thing with volunteers

RUOK Day Conversation Bingo.
Good times.

"Welcome, and thank you for continuing with the next stage of our recruitment process. To move forward, please complete the pre-recorded video interview below"

Jesus no.

feeling cute, might rename some lakes later

Wait. FB just offered to let me try FB+ for a month, for free, then $5.49/month after.
Lol. They got that upside down.

Right. Back into full job-hunting mode lol.
Might be a fedihire toot coming soon.
Had an interview yesterday that a recruiter had reached out to me for. I reckon it would be a good environment for me, but not sure it went as well as it should have. And the rest of their process is notoriously long-winded and slow. Let's see.

I ordered a phone case a little while ago. I only now realise what they meant by this:

My son's robot team is competing in the West Australian Robotics Competition this weekend if anyone fancies popping in for a look.
Last year there were drones and Lego and demonstrations and swag and a petting zoo and free coffee too.

There is now one remote control for each person for the big TV in our house.
If everyone else wants to drop and crack theirs or smear ice cream on it, or fiddle with the battery flap until it snaps and they have to Sellotape it up then that's on them.
Bugs me to tears.

Went trainer/sneaker shopping at lunchtime.
Nearly bought some white New Balance just to embarrass my son.

Doco that says "Remove <thing> and confirm it's removed by checking <stuff>. Remember to note down <three very important bits of configuration that aren't re-generatable before removing <thing> as you'll need them later>"
FFS.
I will be having words and making edits.

Imagine doing a $500 Woollies shop and forgetting to tick the box to get the Ooshies for your daughter.

Yes, It's August. But I'm starting my #Christmas shopping. Gifting is probably the easy part. But I need suggestions for what Santa might consider for me. So far I have:
New router (the network or woodwork kind, don't mind)
BritBox subscription.
Akubra.
Henson razor.
Size 43 boots with a Cuban heel.
A decent hooded towel.
Meet and greet with Kylie.
A day shadowing Albo.
Peace on Earth.

Dreadful WhatsApp just popped up and asked if I'd like to reserve a username.
I wonder if they'll actually give me @woodside which it's let me reserve.
I'm thinking it could be fun.

What does everyone use for their #RSS Reader? And why?
