@streakmachine When did progress stop being progress for you?

@hazardwarning Oh yes, I’d forgot that air holds more moisture the warmer it is. So perhaps instead of finding a drier place, I should find a place with cooler summers, like Berwick-upon-Tweed. But then I’d probably moan about the temperatures.

@matigo Been thinking about humidity a lot recently. It’s a mere 15°C here now and only due to reach 19°C later, but my skin feels slightly clammy, especially when I move about. I checked and the humidity is 93%. It’s OK. Certainly a lot better than what my 10C friends are experiencing. But I’m wondering if humidity is closely correlated to precipitation or if there’s more to it than that. If there’s a decent correlation then moving to somewhere with drier summers would be a bit of a boon. I worked out that if I move to the driest place in Britain the precipitation in the wettest summer month would be about 30% less than here. Not a huge difference but still substantial.
@streakmachine I’m just grateful that really clever people can solve such problems on my behalf.
@matigo Pounding after a nap? That’s not good. A twenty-four hour sleep might fix it.
A significant minority of the discs I put in the external CD-ROM thingy vibrate exceedingly loudly and start moving. I have to put a heavy thing beside it so it doesn’t vibrate to the edge of the cabinet and fall off. Honestly, it sounds like a garden strimmer while spinning. These disks take longer to rip. Perhaps the problem is something to do with the way the data is structured. MakeMKV sometimes whines about there being tens of thousands of VOBUs and structure protection. Don’t know how a VOBU differs from a VOB.
