You can copy and paste files from a Remote Desktop session to your local machine.
Hehe … ???
In a similar vein, @pap , you have to enable TCP and named pipes in SQL Server to connect from the Python pymssql library.

That petrol gauge story better be true as I told a car load of hungover people on Sunday all about it. I can accept that they think I’m boring but I don’t want to be a liar as well.

Honestly wish I knew the Remote Desktop thing before. The amount of time I’ve spent getting permissions for directories so I can copy from production machines or whatever is ridiculous.

I’m still waiting for @btripz to either post a picture of his fuel gauge, or apologise for calling me all sorts of names (that I probably deserve for other reasons, but not the fuel gauge anecdote).
I was watching Taboo the other evening and two blokes had a duel because one of them felt they had been slighted by the other character.
I wonder if I should call out @btripz for impugning my otherwise good character.
We could have a forum duel.
Anyway, @fatso , I tell EVERYONE I meet why socks have coloured heels and toes even though they’re not visible.
And nobody calls me boring.
Right?
Bletch I have no idea what you are on about…
Not sure anyone needs (or wants) to know tbf.

Apparently he has wet himself laughing too much at his collection of vintage Monty Python sketches, I think

What I like about this is that not only had he enough time on his hands to discover this peeling phenomenon, he also has the time to film it.

Another revelation.
When pouring liquid from one of those cartons that have an off-centre outlet, turn in up the other way.
It pours like a dream. Why were we not taught this in school?
Cant see the vid… but I did get some abuse when I pointed out to my good lady Mrs Map that if you wanted to get more screen wash into the car than in teh engine bay, she might want to turn the 5ltre plastic container on its side and it pours lovely…
Of course your vid might be showing this, but you have arsed it up and its not playing…
Have another look - I’ve changed the format.
It basically shows that if you want to let the air (that must fill the void left by the departing liquid) get into the carton smoothly, then turn the carton upside down - or indeed on its side.

I recently learnt that when putting the shopping away after getting back from the supermarket always put the tins of baked beans upside down on the shelf. Stops that annoying dozen or so beans sticking to the bottom of the can when you open it.
I really should get out more!

Love it.
…as long as you turn the beans the right way up before opening - right?

Indeed … mini Map may well have brains for School thingies, but I did once catch her using a tin opener on a half tin of beans that were upside down … when I attempted fatherly advice whilst inappropriately laughing that the ring pull thingy on the ‘top’ negated the need for a can opener, her reply was was rather calculated yet Sharp witted —- ‘’ well at least I was not the stupid cunt that placed these Fucking beans upside down in the cupboard’
(Or at least that’s how harsh it sounded to my sensitive ears)

Folding up PET Bottles & Tetra Pack stuff & crushing beer cans to take up less space in the recycle bin.
Who knew?
Perhaps because we just had trash skips in the sandpit
