Title. While doing some other work, he realised that underneath the console where his TV went, there were a bunch of cables from past-inhabitants-of-this-house's cable TV setups.

He reasoned he'd solve this by sawing off those unseemly white cables, thus opening space for new stuff.

Except... The ethernet cable that connected the internet router to the Switch that routed it all over the house, connecting to our shared family homeserver and such? Yeah, it was also white, and also down there.

So. My dear ol' dad took a saw to his internet. And chopped it down. Now he'll need to call someone to run the cables through the walls again (this is Brazil. Walls are solid concrete. Running new cables through walls is NOT easy!)

EDIT: It is fixed. And all it took was me and the technician spending 8 hours running around the apartment, pushing/pulling cables into/from holes in the wall, and yelling "DO YOU SEE ANY MOVEMENT?"

I just finished working a twelve hour shift on that foot and I knew the skin had been broken but was wondering if a bruise had formed. Idk if you can tell from the picture but it's roughly quarter-sized. The cat, by the way, moved over to the mat by the kitchen sink to finish puking.

Daily drive a Pixel 7 Pro with GrapheneOS. Does 90% of my daily needs while use my PC for the last 10%. Planned to use a spare phone with Stock Android for my holiday. Pixel 7 SIM card tray broke inside the phone. I love the Pixel software features, but with this, fingerprint issues and past battery issues, i dont know if i want another pixel phone after this

We social distance, usually wear masks in public, and stay up to date on our vaccinations. But all it took was one lady with a mean cough on a two hour flight a week ago to ruin that...or so we think.

The timing really sucks. I had plans for my weekend.

These guys did everything wrong, and one of them nearly died in the process. Thankfully he walked away just fine.

Invited all the neighbors and friends. Got 100% confirmations. Nobody came. I guess I’ll eat burgers for a month.

Just leave a comment here so that Lemmy shows me the "appoint as mod" button.
