I don't know if anyone needs to hear this but I use this all the damn time.

So when you're doing the cross you stick blue and green opposite each other, and red and orange opposite each other.

I find that I'm rubbish at the order they go in. I know it's Blue Red Green Orange but sometimes I'll go blue orange green red by accident.

As long as you have the opposite colours, well, opposite each other (blue-green, red-orange) and haven't royally fucked it up (Blue green red orange) then you can just do this.

Get your wrongly aligned middle slice and move it into the yellow layer with an M2, then spin them the opposite way around with a U2, then put them back with an M2.

Thing is, you don't have to do this immediately. You can actually do the whole of F2L first, then flip em afterwards. Meaning instead of getting in a bit of a panic about having done the cross wrong and trying to figure it out you can say to yourself "Oh yeah, better do that alg when I get a chance" and do it when there's only yellow edges in the M slice partway through F2L or leave it until you're done.

Also, you don't necessarily have to flip the bad 2 edges, you can flip the good 2 edges if you notice before you F2L and just realign your white slice so the cross matches.

TLDR: M2 U2 M2

I've recently started a new job. It doesn't pay as well as the old one but it's less hours, longer breaks and within walking distance of my house.

This last is the main draw. When I finish the late shift I whip out my Dynavap M and try to heat it up without being seen by other pedestrians, and road users. It's fine once it's heated.

Anyway I have just enough time to cache a bowl before I get home. I absolutely love it, gives me something to look forward to at the end of my shift and completely changes my mental space, so by the time I'm home I've blown work out of my mind and I'm in relaxed mode, which was my main issue with my old job.

I had to take time off in autumn last year with mental health problems that were all work related. The way my employer dealt with me was the push I needed to leave. On paper they were doing the bare minimum to support me, but actually what they did was throw me in a corner to get dusty and forget about me.

That's all I have, a positive vape story.

So much wrong with this story, but also plenty of Compoface

I used DuckDNS for ages to access Home Assistant but it was flakey. I use Google Assistant so I need external access.

Nginx was the real bastard, it made my head hurt every time I used it. So eventually I gave Cloudflared a go.

I followed a blog and managed to get it working the free, with a free domain.

Until a couple of weeks ago. It just stopped working. Thanks to a Reddit post I worked out that it was because my free domain used .ga and that was taken down because it was used by hackers and tricksters and odious people who were up to no good.

So I've bought a .com address for 5 years for around £0.65 a month through Cloudflare themselves. It was easy to set up and seems to be pretty solid, although I've only had it a couple days.
