On Ghost of Tsushima you have to press a series of buttons in an exact sequence, in about a split second, to pass som test.It was quite challenged, and frustrating. That game gave me an RSI in my shoulder somehow.

Not quite sure how the shoulder is involved in using the thumb, but I’d getting sharp pains after ten minutes playing it.

A ultrasonic cleaner and my eldest student daughter has a part time job and actually bought me something with her own money. That made me happy
She also tested positive for covid 23rd which was a unwanted and concerning gift.

Just had to order a new tv, old one developed a red line across the screen yesterday, tried convincing the wife it would be fine, today it decided it wouldnt connect to any devices, switching it off and back on cured that issue but cant take the risk of it failing completely, a grumpy 5 year old would soon develop, this would lead to a grumpy wife which would lead to me being busy in the shed for a few days.

My brother's studying chemistry at the moment, he got a Molymod set and I must say it's very satisfying, almost makes me want to get some so we can build bigger molecules.

New chains stretch but expecting 2 inches is a bit much

 

[sako243]

Yup - particularly when it doesn't even go over the bar let alone onto the drive sprocket. Parents asked what I wanted for Christmas and a bigger chainsaw capable of driving longer bars for the bigger stuff was what I wanted. Was supposed to have been delivered with an 18" bar and chain but they've obviously put the wrong bar in, doesn't matter for me - the longer the better. The little electric Husky I have is great for most of the stuff I need to do - this one was for the bigger stuff that comes down (recent storm brought down a 2ft ash branch onto the neighbours fence) and the cold temps and wet wood meant the little batteries struggled.

I've emailed them - would prefer keeping the 20" bar so I'll pick up a new chain anyway for it. Was going to get a 28 or possibly bigger bar for it. Just garden maintenance really but I do have some silly big trees in the garden and also at my parents farm.
