Custom Mint-19.2 with Linuxcnc

You can get another 100 Gb of storage for $2 a month or so. I think its paid via Google Play.
I've had a Gsuite account for over 10 years now and that is cheap as chips for 30 Gb. I think its about $5 a month per user. I could upgrade to a pro plan which gives unlimited storage but its about $15 a month per user. That gives you a proper group drive and lots more features which would be handy.

Google One is about 25 or so beer tokens a year and gives you about 100GB, something to think about.

If Clive is watching, if you are still having problems with your BRIX J1900, maybe give this one a go.

Rod. I used it as a Win10 box instead. The blurb that came with it said in was a win only box. I think it is a version thing as I know there are several people that have used them successfully . I have also seen adverts for them stating suitable Win or Linux. The company that I found actually said good with Linux Mint.

Sorry late with this but my central heating boiler failed and that took priority with me fitting a new boiler.

I wondered what you did with it.

5 degrees C here in the morning, it's been a springy winter here, mostly sunny with temps up to 15 ! some days ago i was cleaning the workshop in my t-shirt and that is very nice, but that will cause us some trouble during summer regarding water.

We went from major bush fires to major storm damage in a week here. Gotta love Australia summers, half the country is on fire and the other half is under water.
In related news even the eucalypts have been declared a dangerous menace that exist to kill. Now that Greta tells us the air around Is killing the least dangerous thing over here are the humans.

LOL
You've got to love Australia ! Never boring !
