Well..this potential heat wave just proves i was right there would be one more summer heat wave before we dip back into coats lol.

Not at all surprised by this article:

Why are pupils switching off from computing GCSE?

A big drop in the number of children sitting computing or ICT will be bad news for the tech industry.

www.bbc.co.uk

The teaching in IT needs updating and changed to be more relevant and teachers that teach "computing" are probably the same teacher teaching IT and probably hasn't got the knowledge to teach it to a standard to get them prepared for "A-levels". Saying that though you get taught the basics in computing in your first year of your degree or you can easily self-teach it yourself at home with resources from the internet and even books.

Was clearing some clutter out of my build area at home and came across two boxes for 1060s and instantly panicked. I thought that I had one that i had forgot to refund from the last build i did a few months back. Thank god both boxes were empty.

Anyone here got Huskie's mobile number? Im due to pop around his tomorrow for a trade that was agreed on thursday night. Ive messaged him on TPU at 7pm today asking for his address but he's not been online. London to Sheffield is a bloody long (about 4hrs -158miles from my house) drive if i dont know where exactly im going

Hi everyone How's everyone's Monday's doing??

Just another day in paradise!

 

[phill]

Sounds rather familiar...

What is it you do @infrared ?

 

[infrared]

Used to be an electrician elechicken, then after crashing my bike I was working in the office doing quotations.. but had to quit thanks to worsening chronic pain that never seems gives me a break. These days I just tinker with stuff when I feel up to it but tbh achieve very little.

My old man saw me looking at a battery spot welder recently (a german designed kit, 'k-weld') so he bought it through the business for me. I've been refurbing a bunch of tool batteries with it, it's weirdly satisfying lol. Here's a makita 18v battery I was replacing cells on, pretty happy with how it turned out! Also gave my cordless dyson a new lease of life.




I really need to finish reassembling my main PC.. it's been apart for 9 months, it's hard to get motivated to work on it though, I get so uncomfortable sat there trying to work on it. Even when it's done and working it kinda sucks to sit there using it. Just wish I could get comfortable and enjoy it.

Edit - what do you do Phill?

Very spiffing, we are now entering cold season and couple of spiders popping out of hibernation after the summer and everyone gone brain dead over brexit.
Id say UK is shaping up to be fun autumn to winter.
