While Seagoon's cats look relaxed but alert my dog looks bored and pervy.

Ok this is the last thing I'm gonna say on this matter. I've saved my dets on Chrome. I've written it in my book. I'll get the man to save it on every possible thing he can think of.
The reason I persevered is because I actually like you guys and it's a pretty positive atmosphere here and I'm a positive person.
I fucking hate technology. I have a headache.
I use a password manager called Bitwarden.
It can be used with phones and tablets and also has extensions for browsers.
Might be handy to also use it as well in combo with everything you’re already doing.
I'm using my duck duck go browser because my app isn't working and I'm getting conflicting error messages and it's a pain in the bum!
I swear when I got logged out the conversation between my husband and I went something like "have you tried Google's thingy tdhvo5s#%@&/4""pqsqueezing your left teste and then check your emails?". Me: huh. You do it. I'll make coffees.
Fuck me. It's taken me fucking hours to remember my password. I have less trouble getting into mygov.
I have a little book of passwords
So do I but for some reason I didn't record it and because I started using Chrome afterwards it wasn't there either. I've learnt my lesson.
Bitwarden is free. It's great. Accessible via an app or browser - just need to remember your master password and you're good to go.
Thanks mate.
I second Bitwarden. Was constantly forgetting passwords and it saved my sanity
Thirded, I even pay for it.
Ive started using Nordpass this year and it saved my butt here haha. Saw that i was logged out, quickly checked Nordpass and saw it was there and was back in straight away. Takes a bit of time to get all of your old passwords changed and saved in there but once its done it is so good having a password manager!!
Bill and Ted say High. 😸😸
spoiler
Ted is the one who looks crazy, Bill is the one with hate in his eyes.
I would not mess with Bill. Great to hear they get along though :)
I'm back! Missed you guys xxxx
Yay! 🎉
Where have you been?
Just unable to log in. Nowhere exotic!
Panettone as economic indicator.
Every year I go to Brunswick to buy xmas panettones and other treats. They are usually sold out by the 1st week of Dec . This year prices are up again and the shelves were still full. Talking to another customer she was telling me they just can't afford it, entertaining family and friends they buy quite a few and that would quickly add up to close to $200 each event.
Other years I would buy two at xmas , this year, one

I got logged out again too but thankfully lemmy let me straight back in.
Found out today that three of my colleagues have Covid and I have mild symptoms that I thought were hayfever, and decided to test and I too have the spicy cough. I'm a bit gutted as it's my mums birthday on Wednesday and we were meant to see my cousin before she flys off to live in Ireland on Saturday. Quite upset tbh but feeling okay overall.
You log back in, you get logged out, you log back in and you shake it all about
You do the hokey poker and you turn around......
And that’s when you get logged out!
Now my Jerboa is working because I needed to update it in playstore. Of course I did. I am an idiot.
Thankyou! Thought I was going bananas!
Combination of a few things has meant last week was extremely quiet at work, haven't had to do much at all. Looks like it's going to stay that way for the rest of the week until we close for Christmas on Thursday! A welcome relief with other nonsense at work still ongoing
I got lucky this year with work and it was quiet for the last few days, normally it’s hectic as crap.
By the way not sure if you saw my post from yesterday but kippers at Woolies are on sale for 2 bucks this week.
Ooh nice I'll make a trip to load up!
So the new comments are highlighted? Pretty cool.
Sigh. My WGAC order is a shambles! First I got an email from them back in November inviting me to purchase a Christmas themed toilet paper and I agreed and ordered it. Then I heard nothing for a while. When I enquired about it they said they'd run out. They billed and reimbursed me twice. I said I'm going to run out of toilet paper soon, so just send the regular stuff, and can I add some boxes of tissues and kitchen towel rolls as well. No problem, the items will likely be shipped separately. I got the kitchen towel rolls and boxes of tissues within a couple of days. No toilet paper. My WGAC account says the TP order has been "fulfilled." Understanding that there are delays with things this time of year, I reached out to customer service after a week and a bit, where's my toilet paper? They hadn't given me a tracking number for me to see for myself where it'd gone. They didn't know what happened, but said they'd just ship a new order of toilet paper while they investigated what happened to the other order. No problem. I check what's shipping and it's boxes of tissues and kitchen towel rolls, not toilet paper! I email them. Nothing. I email them again. In the meantime I'm getting "your order has been processed," "your order has been packed," "your order is onboard for delivery," "your delivery has been delayed" messages from ANC. I get an email from WGAC this morning saying someone will be in touch with me as soon as they can. Over the weekend I had to buy toilet paper from the supermarket (Aldi. Pretty good actually). I have just been delivered 2 more boxes, of boxes of tissues and kitchen towel rolls! At this point they can just reimburse me the $14 difference in price and I'll just delete my account. Found out their TP is made in China anyway.
I setup Kodi yesterday it works well but the UI is terrible.
There's heaps of different themes (they call them Skins in the wiki), or UIs I guess. I'm currently running Amber with a few tweaks through the setting of the theme itself. The default I think is called Confluence maybe... There's lots you can try, even ones that make it look like an apple Tv.
This link will run you through how to change the theme...https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Change_skins
Edit. Would also recommend looking into real-debrid and running the Seren add-on.

If you're going to use Real Debrid and have an Android TV device of some sort (Nvidia Shield, Chromecast with Google TV, the sketchy Android TV boxes that Jaycar sell with 10 year old Android versions, etc), then you may as well use a more modern app like Weyd or Syncler. Much nicer UX that's more responsive.
There is a lot of dry begging going on in the other place. I guess the old mods used to shut down those threads pretty quickly.
yeah, lots of sob stories
If one more person tries to push something through before Christmas I'm gonna tell them to f off. My manager knows what I've got on, if they wanna push something through they can. Everyone else can get stuffed. Only 4 days left, god forbid we just coast to shutdown.
We've got some keen souls like that too. They're getting pushed to the back of the queue and making noise.
Bastards
Watching a Flemish series on Netflix. The subtitles make the characters look better than they are.
The swearing is truly appalling, the equivalent of saying fucking cunt or what is the worst thing to say in Australia, but the medieval Vlaamse swears is translated literally and comes across as quaint 🙄
