Tea drinker in love/hate relationship with coffee, owned by a cat. Doctor Who and Star Trek fan.
Did Microslop have AI create this status message about an M365 issue?

It reads just like someone didn’t check the output after saying rewrite this to make it longer: “Root cause: A portion of dependent service infrastructure in the North America region isn’t processing traffic as expected.”

F’book was bad enough with fake accounts trolling and spamming in groups. Apparently you can now use nicknames to hide your identity. You can bet anyone using these is already hiding behind a locked account.

My coffee machine stopped working and I decided not to replace it. I switched to pour over coffees again and it’s all I need at home.

Bought myself a new stovetop kettle and it’s so much better for controlling water flow across the coffee. I’m a simple man, little things like this make me happy.

Merry jolly red hat day! 🎅🏻🎄

Santa decided I made the Nice list this year and could have a present. He knew exactly what I wanted. 🖖🏻

🐕 This is Nala.

Nala knows she is not allowed inside.

Nala did circuits of the table under the house then rolled on her back for belly rubs.

It would be rude not to go in. 📚

Contemplating life and the dilemma of staying in her cool(ish) spot or jumping down on the bug crawling along the ground. 🐱🐈‍⬛

Finally got around to putting the Christmas decoration out at home.

Two hours, 249 steps, two beers, and a 27.3cm scaled up Santa mini figure appears.

Team planning morning and they have a habit of getting way down into the micro detail. I’ve told them they need to stay big picture and I’ll be ringing the bell if they don’t.

I really need adult supervision when I go to the comics and collectibles shop at Chermside. I had none today and the Doctor Who collection just increased.

I’m happy though so pfft to supervision.

Carrot Weather sounding a cautionary note about the downside of switching to solar energy.

I have had family visiting since Wednesday night and have had to rearrange things in the apartment a bit. The Cat is not a fan of the changes or all these people in her space.

Not a good #Caturday for her.

Today is a normal, albeit rainy, spring day. Yesterday was not, at 37°c it wasn’t even a normal summer day. Very happy a change has come through.

Being from Australia I’m a firm believer in Halloween being imported US nonsense. However, I don’t do bah humbug at work and go along with whatever is planned.

My contribution will be these two meerkats on my desk thanks to the Aldi aisle of dreams (special buys) this weekend. 🎃

Trying out some new tea I picked up from McIver’s shop at the Victoria Markets in Melbourne.

I picked the (It’s A) Bolshie Brew mainly because of the name. It has a good smokey flavour which isn’t overpowering and is a blend of Lapsang and Assam.

The Miner’s Tea is very similar to Yorkshire tea.

WFH is tiring. The supervisor was sleeping on the job today. 🐱🐈

The new Translink app is a garbage bin fire. You can’t even look up a timetable within the app, it sends you out to a browser. Whoever developed this rubbish should give their fees back. I quickly switched back to the old one but sadly it has finally been removed.

Couldn’t resist this bin chicken (Ibis) badge I found at the Queensland State Library shop.
