I’ve been dealing with a lot of very irritating bureaucratic stuff in recent weeks (including taxation matters) and it’s made me a very dull boy; ignoring more normal, human activities, not going out much, finding it hard to access much pleasure. But I think I’ve broken the back of it now. I think I’ve got through the worst part of the thicket. I do like a nice metaphor.
@larand I keep trying to think of all the possible outcomes and work out which is most likely but it’s probably not a wise path to go down.
@sumudu Thank God. It’s fortunate you were able to contact Steven. It’s all a bit tenuous. Fingers crossed.

@larand The lights will go out before the bills stop being paid. Every so often, his I.S.P. changes his I.P. address even though he pays for a static one. When that happens, we can’t access 10C until Jason fiddles around with something. He did try to automate the mend but I don’t think he got it 100% automatic. How often does the I.S.P. change his I.P. address? Not sure, every three months?
@hazardwarning I think you’re right. Berlitz Japan is probably his direct employer. It’s not German though, it’s American.
I’m trying to remember the name of that thing where you could have an entire website (albeit a tiny one) contained entirely in a URL. [ EDIT: it was https://itty.bitty.site/edit ]
@hazardwarning OK I've got an account set up. Thanks. But what now, where is everyone?
Alright, so this ADN group or instance on Mastodon that I hear people talking about, can someone invite me if I’m not too obnoxious?
