Sorry, it was 15 minutes away from midnight so I waited and then got sidetracked.

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I posted the thread early so wait and then check if there isn't one already

Are we ever gonna fix the bot? Again saying, super happy to help.

[โ€“] indisin@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Replying to myself but @Nath@aussie.zone lemme know if you need support. Game for any lang or stack.

I feel like Zapier or IFTT could easily do it, no need to write anything fancy. Do they still have free tiers?

[โ€“] indisin@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago

It would take nothing fancy to write this on AWS or Azure in the free tiers. It's a few lines of code and be more testable and easy to control and maintain IMO. But open to those suggestions.

There are a bunch of Lemmy bots on git. I haven't played with any of them. @Deatcat wrote the code for Brisbot. It makes their daily threads neatly. Deadcat hasn't been around for ages, though.

I recall you are using iPhone? Can just say to siri "set timer for 12am" and it'll set a timer (not alarm).

[โ€“] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

I could have set a timer yeah. I just wasnโ€™t sure if I was def on DT duty or not

What's the best way to get white socks / clothes looking like new again? In hindsight, not the greatest idea to wear new white crew socks on a dusty hike. I soaked in Napisan for hours before washing but they still look dirty.

Sards wonder soap. Put a sock on each hand, grab the wet soap and lather the shit out of them, then chuck them in the wash with the soap still on.

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

ok, I might try that with some cool tea towels I've got that I just can't get white

( and it's no wonder my nails are always wrecked )

You'll know it works if the suds turn a slightly different colour (dirt coming loose).

Can we come to an arrangement in which you make me breakfast regularly?
