  • Talisman feature ideas

    From apam@21:1/182 to Alpha on Mon Feb 8 12:20:18 2021
    was curious what ya'll -- and apam! -- thought about some of the
    ideas?

    They're all good. Sorry I've been a bit busy lately with other projects,
    and we got airconditioning installed the other day, and now today the hot
    water system is leaking (which isn't great as it's in the garage along
    with my computers)

    I need to resetup a windows computer to work on things, I've got a
    computer setup, just need to put VS back on it, but it's right next to
    the hot water system.

    Anyway, I will get onto your ideas sometime, hopefully soon.

    Yikes... hope you can sort those issues out. Great news about the aircon but the hot water sounds painful.

    Oh, the Mr Whippy van must be nearby as I can hear the music coming from his loud speakers...

    Gotta go! :)

    Apam, no worries! Take care of business around the home, for sure :)

    I'm *almost* done with my auto sig editor door, too :)

    aircon but
    the hot water sounds painful.

    Yeah, it was very painful. water everywhere. :(

    My computers didn't get wet though, but plenty of other stuff did.

    They installed a big hot water system, where we had a small one before,
    so it couldn't go where the old one went, and they had to move the
    drainage out the front of the unit. which meant they had to put a pipe
    behind all our stuff and through the brick work at the front :(

    Feeling a little bit overwhelmed. Still need the electritian to come
    tomorrow to hook it all up. And need everything to dry before I start
    thinking about tidying it all back up...

    Oh well. Hopefully this system won't leak for some time.

    Poop... I hope nothing was damaged and it can all just dry out.

    Is it the pipe that leaked?

    You can only do so much in a day, so long as the stuff is off the ground and able to dry it'll be all good...

    Oh well. Hopefully this system won't leak for some time.

    Yep!

    Nope, was leaking from the top, apparently it was rusted out.

    Because the old tank was a small one, it was on a little shelf off the
    ground, so the drainage pipe went out the back, but the new one being
    large had to sit on the ground, and in order for the water to drain it
    had to go out the front (due to gravity I guess, and not being possible
    to drain upwards).

    Ah well. Wont really know what's damaged until I tidy up, likely
    tomorrow. Shouldn't be too much, as I'm in the garage and sometimes the
    rain comes in under the roller door, I've been careful to have most
    things of value off the ground.

    Anyway, I just got off the phone to my mum, who I haven't spoken to in a
    while, and she's doing well, so feeling much better about things.

    Ah, a leaking water heater... Hope all things are taken care off now so you don't need to go thru this again for a while.

    That's very good that nothing of value was damaged.

    Good to hear. I'm currently looking after my wife who had some sinus surgery last week. I took this week off as domestic leave to care for her. She's on
    the mend and doing well. We go back to the surgeon for a check up tomorrow.

    I've been doing all the household chores etc. and giving her a rest. During
    my downtime I'm trying to progress changes to 1/100 and finally shift to
    Linux etc... so that's been keeping me busy :)

    Hey Tallies (I just made that up, sorry) --

    Apam setup a way to report issues and suggest features. Which is
    awesome. I've added a bunch, but was wondering what other sysops thought
    about them?

    https://gitlab.com/apamment/talisman/-/issues

    Obviously 100% up to apam what (and when) things get addressed/added, but
    was curious what ya'll -- and apam! -- thought about some of the ideas?

    Cheers,
