Looked alright today when it was being counted

Stevie or Shannon will be able to provide a more accurate figure

ChaoticReality

Easiest solution is to use a proper operating system...

ChaoticReality

Ok, yeah, that makes sense. I did once put have a on the plug sticker saying "Do no touch me" but everyone ignored it

ChaoticReality

Well, it's possibly repairable. I don't know much about these things. I stopped Bridget using it when I saw bright orange flashes coming through the plastic. When he pressed the Stop button, nothing happened (cue low budget horror movie moment) and and after unplugging at the wall, it started to see...

Popped in the cafe on my way home about an hour ago and the wifi was broken. Got it resolved pretty quickly but it appeared as if someone had been trying to hard reset the router?? If so, please don't do this! Could also have been caused by the fusebox switch thing. Either way, new routers arrive to...

ChaoticReality

Have posted about it here

ChaoticReality

Did the heater "blow up" (emit smoke, etc)? If not, then it's probably just blown the fuse in the plug and we should have spares lying around somewhere.

ChaoticReality

Nice one Dai, thanks. I know the Clash and have the Mescalaros album but know little of his solo work.

ChaoticReality

Nice idea although I worry that it would get out of date quickly, as I can't imagine that anywhere near all the bookings are made before the first of the month.

ChaoticReality

Replacement brand new routers coming very soon, huzzah!

I told several people the paper feed was fucked when I was in last week. Would have called the printer company but it was out of business hours and I have no info about who services that printer.

ChaoticReality

Probably. One with a breaker would be best, the ones without breakers (which I assume are in use at the moment, most trailbars are "surge protected" these days, right?) only dampen the surge, which is usually enough for domestic use, but probably not much good against people flicking fuses on and off.

ChaoticReality

Some NM's have been using the fuse box as light switches though, so could it happen then? Yes! That is a very bad thing. This might explain how the external modem got fried (and possibly some of the damage to the old router). Who is doing this? You should ask them to stop. Every time you trip/reset...

ChaoticReality

Hmmm. Intermittent failure. That's irritating. Time to start setting up the spare router just in case. I know it's a really basic question, but the router in the office is not getting turned off sometimes is it? That router provides the modem functionality at present, so it needs to be on if you wan...

ChaoticReality

Boo.

I'll try and make it in as early as possible.

ChaoticReality

Fucking routers. I hate them so much.

See you in a bit.

ChaoticReality

In the office is another router that is plugged into the wall, but no modem there either. Look again. See the phone cable plugged into the back of it? At the minute, the router in the office is the modem and the one in the kitchen is just an access point. If anyone unplugged any of the cables from ...

ChaoticReality

Well, I got it up and running yesterday but apparently it has fallen over again. I suspect someone just unplugged the wrong cable. On my way to Forest shortly to try and rectify.

Well he spoke to me about the router today and told me he'd had a go at fixing it, and from what he said, I think it probably was him.

He donated us a replacement router but unfortunately it wasn't too great. Kept it as a spare anyway.

ChaoticReality

We have slightly bigger problems... Whoever tried to fix the router not only broke the router, but also seemingly the external ADSL modem as well. I don't know how, but both are fucked. I tried my best to get something up and working today with the spare parts and my backup router but was unsuccessf...

ChaoticReality

Yeah, basically whoever tried to "fix" the router before (possibly by attempting a hard reset) fucked the power connector in the back so now it won't even power up. :roll: It's currently in bits on my living room table as I first attempted to repair it. Unfortunately, I struck out with the power con...

ChaoticReality

I'll come in today and have a look.

ChaoticReality

I've done it. Swithun's previous link should now give you the newest version posted here by Katy.

ChaoticReality

I'd be in favour of moving the bb etc. to a subdomain or a different domain in order to use theforest.org.uk for the website, but we have a lot of @theforest.org.uk email addresses that we wouldn't want to change, and I don't know if pointing the domain name at tumblr will affect those. Well, peopl...

I'm not keen on a furry chair. I think it confuses things and I think Scoutt is right when she says that sometimes there is barely enough space for humans. We are already one of the only places people can bring dogs and I don't see why dogs need to be on a chair while they are visiting the cafe or ...

ChaoticReality

The answer should be short and unquestionable though, not a block of text! ^ This. "Three ways of volunteering" is much more annoying security question, as we then have to guess how people will answer/spell things and deal with frustrated users who could only think of two. The current question is q...

ChaoticReality

I'll see what I can do.

ChaoticReality

Of the space that's used, a large part of it is old images and mp3s, so the index could easily start with them.

ChaoticReality

Me too! Love his work. Very sad I never managed to catch the Gorky's while they were still touring.

ChaoticReality

fuck yeah!

ChaoticReality

Done and 404s now have a link to the main url, so people shouldn't get lost any more.

ChaoticReality

Ah, that would be an unfortunate side effect of moving to tumblr but still needing stuff like the bb and email (I did try and tell people about this at the time) There's not really an easy way round this problem, since a lot of stuff is hosted on the forest server (bb, cave booking, email, etc) and ...

ChaoticReality

Just to address one of your points: so I put some emails and posts round asking for a copy of the course notes so I could read over them and help myself to understand the workings of a mixing desk so I could use it elsewhere and not one of you can even do that for me. You posted the request (http://...

I fixed it for you

That was pulled from FaceFuck so is limited in quality. I will try and get the original off Brittonie when I see her next.

It's the long cable to the projector that's broken, I think. Bent pins shouldn't be a problem if they're straightened out and fit the socket. I remember having problems with it before, pre-extension cable. The problem appeared to be a slightly dodgy connection just past the plug. When I wired in the...

I think I installed it when I was setting up the jukebox for Iain to use.

I thought there was PHP on the jukebox machine.

No future development needed, it's just something simple. Reading and writing a few fields to a database. Don't need a framework for that. In terms of time, I'm saying less than an hour to write the whole thing from scratch. How long will it take to get it running on Drupal, get all the permissions ...

A mother in the cafe just asked me about baby changing facilities.

Can we get on this?

I think that's too complicated a solution for what is essentially a very simple problem.

I can probably throw something together without too much difficulty. Watch this space.

IT (Mike Bennett??!?!) Brittonie@mail.com &LMorganphotography@gmail.com need to be added to the darkroom@forest email forward. Done. We need to rework the info on the Darkroom page so it better reflects the new changes including advertisement for new workshops with direct link to a sign up page (ma...
