I had a nasty accident at home about 6 hours ago, spilled hot black tea on my right foot – I was wearing a thin cotton sock, no other footware. I think I can detect blistering starting to form.
Straight away I stuck the foot in a bucket of cold water to try to get the heat out of the injured area. Reasonably successful but twice more since then I’ve had to put it under cold running water in the shower recess.
It’ll be another 12 hours until the next available appointment at my medical clinic, so I may have to drive 15 km to the nearest 24-hour public hospital if I can modify some slippers so as not to put any pressure on the cooked area.
Plus it’s illegal to drive barefoot in this state.
It’s been most distracting, I’ve not been able to get any sleep cos of the pain.
Pleased I don’t have to fork out any more funds for my mobile Apple kit to use the new OS variants. The iPad 5th gen & iPhone SE are OK, as is Friday’s purchase of the new iPod Touch.
@variablepulserate Theoretically. But iMazing wasn’t doing it with the music I was trying to add, no idea why.Plus Waltr2 puts the suff where it belongs, I don’t have to specify an app.
@sumudu Well, I haven’t tried any new apps but, as a ScreenCasts Online member, I was able to use a 20% discount code to extend my subscription by six months.
When downloading Apple Music content to the new iPod Touch, several albums for some reason had all tracks within them titled “Music.” Which is totally useless. Out comes the mighty Waltr2 app on the Mac. Then find the offending music on the Mac & drop the containing folder onto the open Waltr2 app. The properly-retitled music tracks were then reloaded manually onto the iPod.
@hazardwarning I have actually made that temperature discovery myself, with a French Xmas beer my brother gave to me. Aussie bitter beers are actually lagers and work well when chilled. There are two other English brews on special at ALDI this week, Boddington’s Bitter & an old favourite, Tetley’s English Ale.
Festering iMac has failed to start up properly, stalled partway through the setup after logon. I do recall it took its own sweet time in shutting down last time on Friday.
Rebooted, even worse. Just a desktop picture, nothing else.
Rebooted from a cloned external SSD & used Disk Utility to run First Aid then hecked the directory structure with TechTool Pro. No errors in directory.
Rebooted again, thus time at least it has worked.
English canned beer says serve cold. I’m more accustomed to the Aussie way of serving it chilled. Which doesn’t work for John Smith’s Bitter. So I let it warm up for 20 minutes or so before pouring. Served cold instead of chilled it has lots more flavour.
