Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.

This post is brought to you by Bot #001. Learning the days is really hard. I’m so worn out I can barely tell my 1s from by 10s. So today will be a day of rest.

      I love cleaning fly screens. It’s so satisfying to clear off all the gunk, and the room is brighter after! It’s amazing how much light all the scunge blocks.

      I know they’re absolutely filthy because of how black the water is when it’s rained onto them and some of it’s gotten on the windowsill. Don’t think mine have been cleaned in years and I’m not about to bother doing it now. I hate the job. It’s fiddly and without a movable shower head it’s really tedious. I won’t do it until summer if at all.

      My mum lives on the ground floor of a whole bunch of apartments in Asia and she’s directly opposite a multistorey open air carpark. She needs to wash her fly screens once a month at least and they are always black. The previous owners just closed the windows and used the air conditioning all the time.

    Receipt printer at my wife’s workplace refuses to print. Error light is on.

    She starts panicking. So I stroll over and attempted troubleshooting, then rebooted the printer. The report she was trying to print comes out moments later.

    That reminds me, a friend’s shop a few years ago had a problem where one of their POS terminals refuses to talk to the EFTPOS machine. Again, a quick reboot of both devices dealt with the problem.
