@streakmachine In 2010 I was on the other side of Australia for 3 weeks, visiting family after my nephew’s wedding. While there I paid more for a set of sports shoes than I did for the air fare home.
I still wear them but the nephew’s now divorced.
His ex father-in-law is the chief magistrate of the Family Court & his ex-wife is a lawyer.
Doomed from the start, I say.
@hazardwarning I used to use IrfanView on my work PC. It was so good I wanted a Mac version.

@sumudu Turns out it isn’t app based. It’s tone-based, like a fax tone. It’s only to be used when contacting an LG service centre if the machine is faulty. At some point the tech will ask the user to hold the phone near the power button then turn the machine on & press the temperature button for 3 seconds. A series of tones are sent to the service centre which deciphers them and reveals the reported problem to the service centre.
I repaired the original rodent-damaged washing machine hose pipe with Sugru. Sometime this week I’ll refit it to the machine, then get a sheet of metal or plastic to rivet to the bottom of the machine to seal against future rodent attacks. I’m still replacing it with a new fully-enclosed front-loading jigger instead.
@hazardwarning Strongly recommend Pixelmator as a Photoshop alternative.

@matigo The prick that runs the business is always late paying the Mac User Group for the full-page add in the monthly magazine.
Unscrupulous Mac reseller shop is offering new MacBook Airs with 2.9 GHz processors. Sneaky bastard, that's the extra speed than can be made available to the 2.2 GHz processor via Turbo Boost.
Five years ago I was able to load the now-old washer into my little Toyota Yaris. I contemplated doing the same with the new frontloader, but decided ruining my back wasn't worth the $50 delivery charge.
They're delivering it from their western suburbs warehouse to my outer eastern suburb home on Sunday.
New washer has a smart diagnosis feature that communicates with the manufacturer's iOS/Android app for solving problems with the machine.
Damned mice/rat ate another hole in the repaired washer’s hose. So I’ve bought a front-loader instead - it has no openings where such critters can get inside. I’ll have the top-loader repaired again & sell it.
