Tumble Dryer

Sometimes life is not about technology.

Tumble dryer stopped heating – so take it apart, realise thermal fuse is blown. Clean all of the dust and lint out – reassemble – it works for a few minutes.

Repeat and rinse. This time replace thermal fuse, thermostat and heating element. Same again.

Third time run the vent pipe cleaner up the pipe – and there’s a birds nest in the vent pipe. Desiccated dead bird and all.

Moral of the story – tumble dryer problems – always clean and clean the vent just to be extra sure.

Azure and Project Nami

Some notes for later.

App Service Editor is incredible.

Uploading webfonts (woff/woff2) requires that wp-config.php has

define(‘ALLOW_UNFILTERED_UPLOADS’, true);
set for the short time.

Serving woff/woff2 fonts requires that MIME types are put in place.

Add this to web.config under system.webserver. https://blogs.iis.net/richma/adding-mime-types-to-your-windows-azure-web-site
