After sometime I finally updated the look of my desktop. A small nod to one of the last good WinBlows OS, XP I will give in that windows 7 also was good but for me it was buggy for the first year before it became stable on my computer. I am also using just Workshelf these days and Windhawk for the taskbar.


Cheers!

Not much new had more medical issues to deal with But just a question, I seen a audit of Microsoft Servers over 80% of them now run Linux I think their is a message in there somewhere?.... Oh well Present screenshot:

Happy New Year to all!

Hey, long time no see @Williamsson! And a Happy 2026 to you too.

Sorry to hear about health issues. Loads of those here too. At the moment just recovering slowly from a prolonged bout of flu. So not very active in the forums, just trying to catch up a little when I can.

How's your "family" these days - burying the hatchet, perhaps in someone?

Howdy Nexter, Hope you get over that dang flu. I got it too while I was going through other issues. Turns out the reason my energy was zapped is because both lower lobs of my lungs collapsed (it only took my Doctor a year plus to figure it out) I was sleeping in shifts I could only stay awake for four hours to six at a time. I do not yet know what treatment will be needed (Got to go to a specialist) but for now I got oxygen to blow my self up with! LOL Good news is I went from 210Lb (15 stones) to 163Lb (11.64 stones) with no diet! Family Is good, just most likely tired of dealing with my sick butt. LOL and no I told them that hatches are out of fashion, and this is the USA so I got them AR-15s.
Hope your family is doing good! and have a beer for me! Cheers

Hi @Williamsson, sorry for very late reply, still recovering from that flu while also trying to catch up with forum stuff. Sorry to hear about your lungs etc., a real bummer. Hope you'll make a full recovery soon. Not a good way to lose weight though. Don't know why yet but I keep losing weight too, over the last six months or so I dropped further from about 9 1/2 stone to 8 stone 5 lbs when I should be putting on to get towards my 'correct' weight of about 11 stone.

Well, being so well armed now why not send the family to deal with all the lunatics that are running the asylum? Personally, I think traditional weapons were preferable - swords, axes, hammers, and all that.

Wife keeps over-feeding me but it seems to make no difference. Don't like beer really, prefer 'warm' real ale so I'll have a half pint for you - can't drink much because of my health and also medication. Anyway, have one for me too - cheers!
