Updated "Facebook Purity" extension in my browser today as I was wondering why I was getting so much Slop on FB - now back to a more 'reasonable' experience in Facebook.

Skymesh Customers EOFY - FREE assistance to Churn/Dump from Skymesh - Limited time offer T&C's.
Switch to a company that supports you!

After spending 4+ hours on the support phone for a client of Skymesh - only to be hung up on! Waldon Computing will provide a free service to help you move to another Internet Service Provider.

Their chat service is worse BTW - "Sammy" had no idea and recommended I phone their support number!

Call us now and forego the pain!

UPDATE: Skymesh just hung up because it is out of their business hours!

Being dabbling into AI recently, used it to update my website with reasonable success plus a few other scenarios.
The best and surprising result was when I uploaded my home built drone settings and the black box logs from a short flight - the AI was able to tune the drone settings to fly better (I wasn't far off in my own settings) within one attempt.
For S&G's I tried getting it to do a picture - I hope you get the reference, as here at Waldon it's one of our priorities 😆
If anyone is interested - I have links to share for access, and no, it isn't one of the major AI's out there.

Have your say!
If you disagree or have concerns about the proposed "Misinformation Bill" that labor is trying to push through - this website will produce an unique submission (editable) to your objections/concerns.
You only have until 30th September to make a submission regarding this bill excludes the Government, news networks and the establishment. In other words, any views that the Government does not like which is undemocratic.

A big reality check this afternoon - Even monitored fire alarms are down to to the cloud outage!
"Preliminary root cause: A configuration change in a portion of our Azure backend workloads, caused interruption between storage and compute resources which resulted in connectivity failures that affected downstream Microsoft 365 services dependent on these connections."

Ouch.

Just a stark reminder - the cloud is just someone else's storage that has a bigger target on them than your external (2+) hard drives.
Remember, if it isn't on at least 2 (preferably) external storage devices- it's not a backup.
After the Adobe debacle, it is also reasonable to assume that vendors WILL change the terms and Conditions at any time - ALWAYS to their advantage.

Waldon Computing recommends NOT purchasing HP Printers.

We had a HP printer set to NOT download new firmware, only for it to do anyway and now this printer wont accept any after market ink.
It also decided to enable "Allow sending data to HP" to back on.
HP quotes this is for "Security" reasons - The only security you need for HP printers is to BLOCK HP from eroding your rights.
