  • FML. Also, good morning.
  • happy morning!
  • dis be monday!
  • Morning, morning. It was!

    Sunny, sunny it is :)
  • aftanoon

    BTW why has this forum stopped working on my iPhone???? anyone has the same issue?
  • damn, been having that issue for months. The second i post about it the idea pops in my head of trying to load without content blockers and ... voila! instant stupid feeling :/
  • Morning, Euros. It's 8.30PM here, and 80F/27C in my bedroom :/
  • that sounds rather warm!

    it's 9.42 here, just got in to the office. temp is normal (like, 10°C), and weather is normal (like, grey).
  • Hey look, old faces making a return!

    Moaning (cause it's raining again!)
  • i wonder what was causing the non-loading for you, shock? i think the only thing on the site that gets blocked for me is the google analytics (but the site still loads, of course)
  • hmmn, it is included in the header, rather than the footer, though - my bad.

    also still have some amazon affiliate code in there that i should really remove as it's of no use any longer. hey ho. i should probably update the forum at some point, too hehe

    The only thing I ever find, with iPhone on mobile signal rather than WiFi, is that the stylesheet doesn't load... I'll grab a screenshot. Never bothered mentioning it, as I'm not a complainer!* :D

    (*I keep forgetting)
  • i block all the porn ads from this site - so annoying, chris.

    …still works mind. Kind of :D

    :)
  • Yeah, it might be meant to do that, peak!
  • Oh, okay. I'm too used to pretty... :D

    Morning!
  • brutalism!
  • i'd just assumed it was meant to do that (does the same for me on mobile data, too).
  • Oh right, okay...

    A little google later...

    I'm a bit (understatement) out of date with web stuff, didn't realise you could use a bit of j.s to query wifi or not. Makes sense now I thunk about it! :)
  • Not sure what it was but I added it to the 1Blocker whitelist and works fine now.

    Yeah the site could do with a refresh. Has vanilla got a newer more mobile version? I’m specially finding the pagination at the bottom really frustrating
  • Hello!
  • yeah, me too, shock! there is a new version, which i should have already hopped to ( a long time ago), oops.

    hello!
  • Mornin'!

    My Saturday morning shift got taken over by a co-worker, so now I have Sat/Sun/Mon off, w00tini :!:
  • morning!

    slater, you gots yourself a weekend right there - make the most of it (i'm talking naps and day drinking here).
  • @slater: what are you going to do?

    heading back to haiti on sunday. very excited for our apartment reno to get underway (in september).
  • Vaaaaska: Work on my start-up, of course!

    Or flog the dolphin to internet pr0n, for three days straight.

    Either/or.
  • Shyamalan tweeeeest:
    My startup's mission is to bring day-long dolphin floggin' to the masses!

    Supported by ads. And data hooverin'.
  • there was some missiles, i heard.
  • there was some missiles, i heard.

    Pale Ales suuuuuuuuck!


    News from me:

    1) My dad has a minor stroke. At 2AM.

    2) Calls emergency services? NAAAAH! Let's call my sister, who is an hour's drive away, has 2 kids, and keeps her phones off at night. Leaves a message for her!

    3) Sister sees message at 6AM, calls back, finds out that... he didn't call the ambulance yet...? So has to organize all that BS, get my mum into assisted living cos she had a *major* stroke about 5 months ago, yadda yadda

    My dad calls me ~3AM my time (he in Switzerland, I'm in San Francisco, 9h time diff), asking if I feel like coming back to Switzerland to be their live-in help...?

  • Vask, Pale Ale's come back into fashion here a few years ago, a good few...

    But, I remember my dad drinking it when I was a kid (and giving me the odd cheeky swig from his glass! :) )

    Sorry to hear about your dad @slater hope it's minor like you say...

    Morning ~all :!:

    Hey! Just noted that slight about IPA...

    There's some really nice ones out there :!:

    ...though they have become too popular, hiked by the hipsters! ;)
  • i love me an IPA!

    holy shit, slater! hope everything goes smoothly. shit, i dunno what to say, that sounds like a lot to take in / on in such a short time. take care, duder!
  • sorry to hear that slater. fingers crossed things work out well...

    we were drinking IPA's in seattle in the late 80's. pre-hipster. now i see them everywhere. my guess is that brewing an IPA is relatively easy since so many do it. it is 100% my fave kind of beer. there are even small brewers in spain doing it which was really surprising for me. lucky me though...in 2003 when i moved to europe i couldn't find one anywhere. always had belgian people telling me their beer was best (it's totally different and not nearly my fave).
  • morning, sunneh as a bastard!
  • my current (and has been for a long time) favourite beer is 'punk ipa', from brewdog.

    hi

    it's definitely a Robyn Hitchcock morning.

  • morning!

    friday!

    suuuunnnnneeeeehhh!
  • went to bed at 8pm. woke up at 4am! goddamn...

    what's your weekend plan?

    around here we have an arepas party. and i plan to work as much as i can to catch up on stuff. the pool is finally warming up so we'll probably loaf around there, too.
  • the missus fancies camping somewhere with the kids, but i dunno... at the very least, we're dragging them out to a large open area tomorrow for exercise and picnic type activities.
  • Morning, morning!

    Sounds good Vask'. I'm off to an event at a photo-gallery tomorrow, then Sunday will probably head to the hills...

    You stay at home chris, let the wife and kids go camping? :)
