It appears the wifi on my #Fairphone4 has died (or at least very ill). So I am looking for some tools to see if I can find where the problem is.

The phone won't connect to my home wifi "Connected to device, Can't provide Internet".

It can't provide a useful hotspot to my laptop.

Tablet & laptop seem to be fine.

To check if there something local doing weird shit, can someone can recommend a wifi checker/analyser to install to an Android?

Suddenly thought 'uh oh that cup of tea should be well/over brewed by now'.

Seems not.

One must add water to the cup with the tea bag BEFORE wandering away and getting distracted.

Yay, fresh cup of tea for me!

First goodun for me in this office building, was taking cues from others about whether we should be heading under desks.

Someone was off their chair, but not looking enthused about crawling under their desk. Another was saying they may need to cut their call short.

It was the pondering over the problem of how to timesheet "picking at weeds in the warm sun" that brought me back inside to my desk. Certainly one of the dangers of lunch breaks while WFH.

[#]Git question: a name of a git branch can be made to be descriptive, but sometimes one wants to have a more expansive description for a branch.

I found git branch --edit-description, but i haven't seen how/where that appears in github.

Is there a way to have a better description for a branch than using the branch name (in github)?

Oh wise and wonderful #Python gurus, I have a python script calling a bash script (seriously let's not go 'why?' right now).

Is there python magic/madness to get the sourcing an environment/export file within that bash script to work?

Work windows laptop restarted when I was getting coffee, and now the bluetooth mouse scroll has reverted to the 'un-natural scroll'.

I have to wait until someone picks up the ticket to run regedit as admin to tweak the setting.

How is your day?
