Things that p*** you off/bug you/annoy you

Last night, was moving 2.5TB of files from a external HDD to my brand new NAS, was scheduled to take ~40 hours over USB 2. Left it to run last night, wake up this morning and Windows has installed an update and restarted the computer. #### YOU WINDOWS.

Lol, even M$ know how dangerous Explorer copies can be, it's basic barebones. Use what they use; RichCopy. It would have just kicked off from where it was after the reboot. It also increases SMB efficiency and speeds up copying.

I'd also recommend turning full autonomous control of updating off and manage it yourself.

This is what pissed me off today.

I designed a custom shirt cause I can't get one anywhere. $32 for 'express' postage from Sydney in 3-4 days - GTFO. Found another mob, $7.50 (AUD) delivered from the US.

Sounds like that "single nut" works at Bunnings.

Glad to know I'm not the only one. Bunnings website is great for some things and suckful for others, like nuts, bolts and washers. Needed a couple of M14 and M13 washers for the last billy cart, what a friggin ordeal. Would have been easier to make them myself from some stainless 3mm sheet, lol.

People expect a lot of things and will try their damnest to get it.
Especially when it comes to MONEY.

Found a little hardware store (barkly st west footscray), had every thing there and they sell fasteners by weight! Talk about old school but I have found my new supplier for all the odd ends.
