quote:This is a lightweight 'bubbly' form of concrete used widely between the 1950s and mid-1990s - usually in the form of panels on flat roofs, as well as occasionally in pitched roofs, floors and walls. It has a lifespan of around 30 years. Who could possibly have foreseen this.

Sounds like building things out of aerated concrete is a bad idea. Good thing nobody here has based their entire build around them!

Misread this as aerated chocolate, but luckily my house in the woods is mostly made out of good traditional gingerbread and the wispas are just for decoration

Too bad there wasn't a period of say, six weeks or so, where the schools were going to be closed anyway and the repairs could have been carried out without any disruption and saved everyone a big last minute scramble, but alas.

Or when they were closed for an extended period a couple of years ago, given that there was a 30 year warning.

I wanted to throw the thing out the window lol

Mr Phillby posted:Last time a friend asked me to fix their printer it turned out nothing was wrong, they just owed 98p on their cancelled 'ink subscription' so the printer had locked the ability to print at all until payment was made. I havent really used a printer for decades i didnt realise things had gotten so dystopian. I thought the stuff theye were doing to prevent refilling the cartridges was bad enough but now they can charge you on a per page basis to print in your own home. The problem is if you sign up for ink subscription, seems impossible to get out of those without stopping your printer working. If you don't sign up for one of those, you're ok. You just need to find a decent quality 'compatible' ink otherwise you're in for a liquid more expensive than Chanel No. 5 for 'genuine'. Sadly, I have found a lot of the supposedly compatibles are just so crappy. Plus there are these chips on the cartridges that guess how full your cartridge is but if you put a compatible in, then more often than not they constantly report 'ink out'. I have a small b&w laser printer for when I'm doing print runs for circulating round all the flats. I've found the compatible cartridges for the one I have are fine.

I went through three printers because buying a new one was cheaper than buying a refill. My life has been happier since i bought a laser printer instead.

I pay 99p per month for the privilege of printing a maximum of 10 pages. I hate it I nick the paper from work, at least. The only reason we have the printer is in case we urgently need to print something when I'm not at the office to just print it there But still, I hate it.

I mostly hate it because it took 3 hours to sign up an hp account, install the app on my phone, connect it to the WiFi, and discover my desktop was too old to install the app so I have to email PDFs to myself and print them from my phone  just end me now you fucker!

I've worked places with big printers that were subscribed to rather than bought because you get all the servicing and consumables and instead of paying 10 grand up front you just get X pages a month depending on plan. I suppose it was only a matter of time until someone tried that model with home printers regardless of necessity.

I will say though, it's good fun to cause my printer to print a dickbutt while I'm at the office and my wife is WFH and then wait for the inevitableq "the printer just did something loving weird" WhatsApp message

Pioneering my new moneymaking scheme, subscription as a subscription as a service. You pay me a monthly fee and I make someone pay a monthly fee and pass on some of the profit to you. Hang on that's just being the person on the end of the line when you call HP customer support.

I think the chip thing has been a solved issue for a while now. All the cheap cartridges I buy from Amazon get recognised as genuine by the printer itself now.

Printers are loving cunts and my Canon one decided to forget how to join the wifi then refused to ever learn again. So I bought a long USB cable to go all the way across the room when I want to use it. I won.

Reminds me of one of the tech tickets we got in my old place. Couldn't connect anything to router on wifi, was on and off, spotty as hell. Turned out the router was on top of a washing machine, and had a dryer and microwave in the same room between it and the computer it was trying to connect to. Moved router away from the interference black holes, and it worked.
