When I bought this used 2014 MBA in April, it'd had 230 charge cycles on the battery, now that figure is 390, I generally get 4.5 to 5 hours of wi-fi connected battery life per charge.
Xmas day tomorrow is going to be around 38℃ here. But I'll be further inland, where it's "only" expected to reach 35℃.
Logged into 10C (or tried to) on the Men's Shed iMac. I couldn't remember my password! It wasn't in 1Password either, so I checked Keychain Access on one of my Macs to find it & copy it into 1Password. Done now.
New microwave oven installed. It's the same brand as the old one, the controls are very similar, not quite the same, though.
Expensive month. First the hot water system died via a water leak that, over two months, doubled my water usage bill. Now the microwave oven is dead. I dropped a dish on the floor & when I picked it up the back of my head contacted the open microwave door, dislodging sime vital safety catch insude the door. So even with the door shut there's no response to any input & the light stays on. The thing was only 12 years old. A replacement of slightly less power (1100w vs 1200w) has been purchased.
OK, here's another shed pic I was able to (mostly) salvage with a crop. but there's still some smudginess to the left.
Here's one of the shed pics with the fuzzy end cropped off.
It's an example of adapting an old shed to more modern farming practices. Observe the cutaway in the edge of the roof above the entry. This allows a tractor-mounted forklift to get the second layer of round haybales in on top of the first layer without coming into contact with the low roof edge.
If you look closer, the upper-left bale has the lifting forks (demounted from the tractor) in place, ready to be used. You can see how little clearance the shed modification really provides.
