Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

It doesn’t have to be me making the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

    What a rainy/cloudy month or so it’s been in Ōtautahi.

      This is most likely an issue with lemmy.ml. Many of the big instances are under a lot of strain because of lots of new reddit users, and lemmy.ml has been having issues off and on constantly for a month.

      When new posts are posted to the community, lemmy.ml should send out an update to all instances that have users subscribed. But because of the load this may be behind, often by quite a lot. There isn’t a whole lot we can do other than let them try to improve performance and wait for the new user rush to die down. Sometimes it gets better with time and sometimes we seem to never get the posts, it’s happening for other instances too.

      Lemmy is also pretty new and a bit buggy so I wouldn’t rule out it being a bug. We try to keep Lemmy up to date with the most recent releases but all in all there are many, many bugs and people are working on them as fast as they can.

          Nah. And even if people keep having the same issue, it’s good to have people report it so we know it’s still an issue.

    Power out in North East Valley, Dunedin for the morning apparently due to a fault, wind probably has something to do with it. Kids are playing nicely together without technology, for now…

    Need to finish my end of financial year reports today. And also view a house. Screw the rental market in this country!

    Gave our 4 weeks notice to end our Tenancy today, and the Property Manager came back to us and said if she could show the place to someone tomorrow.

    I asked if they would like to me vacate the property for the viewing, and they’ve explicitly asked if I could be present for the viewing. Hmmm… I wonder why?

      The only thing I can think of is that the prospective tenant specifically asked for you to be there. Not a bad idea from their perspective.

    As someone born in the US, happy getting drunk and blowing stuff up day to any other lurking Americans.

    In other news I just booked a flight to the US to go visit family. AFK having minor panic attack about spending.
