Some tomatoes are still ripening slowly, might end up making some green tomato chutney.

Just picked the last of the cucumbers from the greenhouse. Having a little experiment in the greenhouse at growing a ginger plant from store-bought root. I will have to bring it indoors for the winter, to keep the temperature about 20 C.

I've usually grown beans from seed packets, and they usually take at least a couple of weeks to sprout. This year, after picking the last of a batch of broad beans, I thought I would plant some now, and over-winter them in the greenhouse. I was amazed that they sprouted vigorously within two days. I guess that's something to do with the freshness of the seed beans.

Still have a veg bed full of beetroots, will leave them until the first frosts come.  I have one surprise earlier this year, from the previous year's beetroots, there was one beetroot I'd missed, and was now going to seed. I've patiently waited until the seeds start to turn brown before harvesting them, to save them for planting outside in April.

@alexkemp - my wife was in a similar situation when NatWest closed its branch in our town. She moved her account to Nationwide, which still has a branch in town where we can talk to real people! Nationwide is currently giving £175 to new customers who switch their current account to them.

I've just run sudo tasksel. It showed both XFCE and Cinnamon with "*" - which might just be a relic of what I selected during net install. I will try unstarring XFCE and just (re)install Cinnamon.

Can anyone advise on the cleanest way to install VSCodium on Devuan?

Not sure which option shown here is the best.

More RUST in the wheels of the internet.

Footnote:
Installing Nemo has also fixed Thunar's problem with Browse Network.
So it must have been my muppetry with the dependencies after all.
But thanks to all who responded.

Not sure if this is related, but I've found that on Win10 we can no longer administer local users. Any new user has to be a Windows Online user  that phones home to MS to get permission to use your own computer. I can no longer modify an existing local user account. Nor can I use an existing local user account for a shared drive to access it from another computer. It seems to have been done in one of various MS updates, but I have no idea how long ago.

Seems like making Win10 more like Win11?
All your users and files is belong to us.

Actually, just a very well crafted fake.
But even so, still enjoyable.
