Client sent in a laptop to have the smashed screen replaced. I threw out the old screen but then had to wait a couple of weeks for the new screen to arrive at which point I realised I'd thrown the mounting brackets out with the screen 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Dumbassery of the highest order.

Been using cheap, generic SD cards for my Pi media centre and they take around 3 hours to back up (64GB) at 4-5MB/s. Bought a SanDisk Extreme SD card as a test and it backs up in 15 mins at 79MB/s. Def worth the extra money. Interesting to see the huge difference in quality.

Printer showing as offline. 10 minutes of getting them to check cables and confirm everything is working until I directly ask "The printer is definitely switched on isn't it?" only to get the reply "Oh no, it seems to have switched itself off" FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!
