Ducted aircon.

Yes, that does suck...almost as much as uni assignments. As good an excuse to drink as any though, I guess...

Yesterday for me...not such a great day...

That's the sucky thing about having finite money - priorities outweight desires so often. I'd love to upgrade some more gear and get a new kitchen/laundy/bathrooms/carpet...but will have to do something with my alfresco and patio before next summer so the dog doesn't cook outside while we're at work...😐

Your setup didn't put you into financial stress like mine has, though 😂 Strangely, I agree with double R...time for TV shopping. 65" Samsung QLED - make it happen 😉

I definitely reckon hydrogen is the way to go!

I'm all for entertainment, but this is beyond that...it's adding zero value to the forum and taking away from the way the rest of us generally interact and chat. Not to mention how it'd look to anyone genuine visiting the site...

Can we just ban him, already? I honestly CBF with coming on here atm and having to wade through all the bullchit to catch up...

Thanks Dan. What I loved about writing this sentence is that I could have put a coma in it (Thanks, Dan) and it would still, technically make sense 🤣

Wow, you guys had a full-on weekend in here!

You definitely have the advantage that you're home during the day - so you'll get a very real and noticeable benefit from solar in that sense. I just wish battery storage would drop in price and be worthwhile!

@Puffwagon pics!

So, what are some of the issues that face the average IT person with respects to email? I'm genuinely curious. Also, gmail currently has some hectic outages...this helps me not.

That's a bit sucky. What'd the manage to fark up?

Not your observation, more so the WAY you presented it. For example: Would have come across better worded something like: "There's actually a little more involved behind the scenes with email servers and cleints, such as..." ^See previous statement. Don't say "I could go into details" and then not elaborate - this comes across as "I'm smarter and better than the rest of you peasants". Again, not needed and could have been avoided had you just imparted your knowledge in the first place, without being uppity about it. See my previous post...

This is where you're wrong. If you added to the discussion, in an informative and non-pompous manner, we actually WOULD find it valuable and interesting. There's a way to impart knowledge without coming across like an arse.

Yeah, definitely jealous of this size of his system (da-hur-hur). My 5kW system with 6.6kW worth of panels BARELY covers my ducted aircon with full sun if it's hot. I imagine his system cost a whole bunch more than mine did though. That and I think rebates work differently with larger systems?

The main thing was you guys had a good chat.

Jesus, Keith 😂

What about what I said was inaccurate? Don't get me wrong, I don't profess to be an IT expert...but I do work for a software company and provide support and training for a living...so I'm not completely useless with it.

You say it like I disagree with you? Although, I will admit, the nice thing about using gmail as the client is that if I don't like something about it there's usually a Chrome extension I can get to make it the way I like.

Ok, let me qualify...we don't use an @gmail email address...we just use gmail as our email client, similarly to using Microsoft Outlook as a client for whatever your business email address is. So, chances are a lot of your clients are using gmail in the same way. You guys can go back to having NFI now 🤣

Businesses...

Shockworks, yo!

He's a Groodle - so golden retriever cross mini poodle. Yeahhhhhh...he has calmed down from what he was like when he was younger...just hope he chills out a bit more as he keeps getting older.
