  • ibvo: Future Yard

    Gherkinhead!?

    Future yard is an amazing place. Not just because they do amazing vegetarian and vegan pizzas and they get inventive with toppings.

  • ibvo: Mt Everest Nepalese Cuisine

    https://www.mteverestcuisine.co.uk

    For those who are not familiar with nepalese cuisine, like I wasn’t πŸ˜‚, it is most similar to indian food I’d say and it’s amazing!

    In case it is not obvious, we got a takeaway this time. They also have a nice restaurant in Liscard, we have had some great times there in the past. They’ve got some absolute stellar nepalese lager and cocktails as well

    They have a really good vegan selection, pictured are the chili mushrooms, sherpa cutlets, pilau rice and vegetable rogan josh.

    I love this place, we’ve been many times and it is a staple 😎😎

  • ibvo: forked up vegan

    Forked up vegan is so so good. It has had many homes over the years, at the woodside ferry terminal, in am office block in birkenhead and now at the blackstock market where it appears to be thriving

    needless to say we’ve been many times over the years

    The sesame toast was new to us and it was so so good. The tofu duck pancakes, loaded fries and blag korean chicken wings and burger are amazing.

    We already want to go back to get the rest of the menu because we have missed it a lot

  • ibvo: sanskruti liverpool

    https://www.sanskrutirestaurant.co.uk/liverpool/

    sanskruti is a brilliant authentic south indian restaurant. It is entirely vegetarian with a lot of vegan options. There are also quite a few gluten free options too!

    Upon returning to this restaurant I was overly excited about these vegan mango lassis. It is a yoghurty type drink and it is just fantastic

    the Kathal Lazeez is also a banging jackfruit curry. Absolutely sound 😎😎😎

  • he.net ipv6 certification

    https://ipv6.he.net

    If you want to learn more about ipv6 you can do this free certification and they also give you a free t shirt for completing it.

    badass 🀘🀘

    anyways

    If you want to do the certification you kind of need a VM with a public ipv4 address and a domain name. Ypu could do with some linux skills as you need to set up a simple web server and email server. I used one on hostkey, they were super helpful as they don’t allow SMTP but made an exception temporarily so I could finish the cert.

    Would recommend pursuing this as it was fun. One day I will get round to dual stacking my mikrotik router at home πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚

  • Pixel 10 and Anker Zolo Charging Pad

    I wasn’t sure if these would work together but alas they do – sort of

    For reference I used these 2 devices

    Anker 323 Charger (33W)

    Anker Zolo MagSafe-Compatible Wireless Charging Pad

    It works as in it charges but it will occasionally stopped charging and won’t start again until I unplug the charger

    It seems that as a fail safe, the charger will power down before it overheats

    This will leave my phone with low charge for the day πŸ₯²

    As a workaround I just plugged it into a smart plug and scheduled a power cycle for 1am, 3am and 5am.

    This seems to do the trick quite well πŸ˜‚
