Here in Somalia (and other countries) the bane of my life is the supposed 'promise' of new software, we have a number of bespoke packages managing delivery of services to millions of beneficiaries. They are always rolled out in Beta, they never function as promised (let alone talk well to one another) cost fortunes to get service, and the management who poorly supervised the project are far removed (sitting in Rome or Nairobi) from a bunch of very hungry, very angry people who don't understand why they are not receiving the food/support they were promised. If I ever get killed it won't be by an IED from AS/AQ, it will be by some mad b@st@rd frustrated beyond belief. My fervent desire is for these managers to visit an IDP camp and receive 'direct' feedback, I will be happily holding their arms behind their back while feedback is administered.

Wow, that sounds intense!  I had to look things up.  You are there trying to support refugees in camps, correct?

    I removed almost all plugins and extensions prior to the upgrade. The test installation worked which makes it all the more frustrating and confusing.

    A bit like goalkicking at training ..never miss. Come Match Day …🤷🏼‍♀️

    Despite our Test Installation working perfectly our attempt to upgrade to the latest version of the the software failed. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come in 2025.

    We will attempt to do it again soon.

    In the meantime we can ask whether @Nasher is the right guy? Too soon?

    In all seriousness, huge shout out to @Nasher for taking time away from his family to help us out. Thanks mate.

    You blokes are still the greatest. Thanks for all your efforts.

    99.9% Somalis (is always weird finding that odd South Sudanese or Yemeni in a Somali camp-why would you come here) anyway they internally displaced and haven't crossed a recognized border, so we call them IDPs - from either conflict or drought _ we try as hard as to keep them where they are from, so they can continue producing their own livelihood. They are actually pretty good farmers - always ready to adopt better farming practises, regardless of how previous generations did it. 70% of our budget was USaid so things looking bleak, out of a job come July, but watching kids maybe ~2 days from death have their IVs/supplemental feeding switched off is infinitely worse.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
