How come “off my chest” and “off my tits” don’t mean anything like each other?

No, nothing changed, and no other DHCP server. Nothing new in the house too The other Raspberry Pi seems fine, for now - may have a different version of OS though Exactly as per the reddit thread - fine for years, then it would be fine during the day and lose its connection overnight, except mine is...

No, just DHCP

I taped a sheet of sandpaper to the floor and put the bowls upside down on it then rubbed them until I had a flat on the rim. Glued easily with pva then Don’t know what the Wiko bowls are coated with, but I ...
