; Hello World


Exciting day as a man's come to change our plain 1980s Electric Meter to a Smart Meter.
Me and Mum are currently sat in a house without internet.

I can't fully describe what it's like, but the earlier mention of the 1980s is definitely ringing a bell.

It's a bleak desolate place, where the only entertainment is the music that was previously stored on your Laptop, Phone or Tablet.
I'm desperately searching for "Company" music that might be stored on my iPad.. ie, stuff that isn't 99% VideoGame Soundtracks and JPop!
And my Laptop battery conked out about half an hour ago, so that's no bloomin' good.

It's only a few hours, thought.
I can cope.

I'm not addicted to coding, or anything.
If I were, I'd have already grabbed the Switch and the Keyboard.
But I'm not even thinking about that...
Not in the slightest.

; Edge Chrome Beta

Microsoft released the Dev-Channel build of the Chrome Based Edge a while ago, and it's been my daily driver ever since.
Chrome has become the "Test, just in case" browser, and Edge is my default.
.. Crazy times!!
Anyway, the "Actual Beta" version is now available, so if you want to hop on board.. Easy as Pi.

The fact that it no longer even mentions Chromium on the Beta Download page is a rather telling sign.

; Diabetes

Steve is told his risk of Diabetes has been reduced thanks to his weight loss.
But that doesn't mean he should suddenly eat a great big bag of Jelly Beans.
.. So he should give all the Jelly Beans to Jay..

; Raspberry Plucking

Spinal is having issues with his C64 Mini, but is it something to do with the RPi itself, or is it the Linux version, or what?!
If you're knowledgeable about Linux stuff, perhaps you can help out?

; NES Coding

The wonderful "8-Bit Workshop" website used to only cater for Atari 2600 coding, but it's been bulked up a ton since it first appeared.
A recent upgrade has added NES coding to the site.
You can code in either C or Assembly, right in your browser, and have it emulated directly on the screen.
The web is amazing!!
