Pet Peeves

[Kunt 4 Life]

So the kid won't listen to your Nickelback CDs but prefers Yaya's Cradle of Filth?
Don't take that shit dude.

Only very slightly related but my wife was giving out to me about something last night and the (fairly loud) backing track was Foetus' 1984 classic, Hole. I kept wanting to laugh because she fucking hates that album or indeed any Foetus album but it was certainly an improvement on the usual waiting to be left alone by saying nothing.

Anyway that's not a peeve at all so keeping it on topic, why do things always have to go wrong with the car when I have a rake of other bills to pay? Some pain in the arse.

Did you fix your fuckin phone yet or what

The boss's wife tested positive for the plague today and I've had what I presumed was the flu (did a test, clear) for the last couple of days. Joy.

[Necro Red]

Trying to get music from a laptop on to my phone. Fucking nightmare! Advice appreciated also

[Carnage]

Copy and paste, no? Works for me.

My phone doesn't recognise when it's plugged into the laptop, so I just take the sd card out, stick that in the computer and copy over from there

[Carnage]

If you open the phone, ie unlock it, it should show up on your laptop. You might have to change a setting on the dropdown menu on the phone when it's connected (change it from 'charging' to 'file transfer') but it should show after unlocking it.

I do the same with the SD card myself, it's faster overall.

For those of you having issues connecting phones to laptops, it would be no harm to try a different cable. Some cables only provide charge power and aren't able transfer data between devices.

Spanish government telling businesses that their AC temperature can't drop below 27 degrees. To reduce dependence on Russian gas by 7 %.

Unbelievable. Fuck off!

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Ha, nothing compared to what we'll all see imposed within the next 5-10 years. Better man up!

[Caomhaoin]

The world is slowly turning into a gigantic episode of brass eye. Pedro Sanchez came on telly telling lads not to wear ties as an energy saving measure. That's relatively harmless, gormless shite but telling already struggling hospitality places that they can't turn the AC up to eleven? Sinister.

I don't know to what extent you think about climate change along party lines, but if you don't (and I hope it's the case) then you should realize that the current environmental state we're living in, not only climate, but air and water quality in general, is due to having spent the last 50 years living with everything turned up to 11.
