Windows (10) users who also use Slack: What magic incantation do I need to perform to give Slack something other than a white border in light mode?
(it seems to ignore OS settings)
Mobile gurus: Is there an app I can use on iOS devices to diagnose cellular connection issues?
Have strong signal, but no data connection. Toggling connection on/off resolves for a while. Multiple devices, multiple locations inc. roaming outside UK.

Coffee
ALT A photo of a cup of black coffee on a saucer with a teaspoon. The photo is duplicated and in the second photo various Instagram filters have been applied so it looks heavily processed and unnatural. Under the first cup it says โCoffeeโ, under the second it says โfilter coffeeโ.
Seventh recommendation (I am awful at this one a day plan) is via @ade. @chimneyfirec Odds & Ends blend is affordable, saves waste and has produced some excellent (never repeated) blends.
Good for โspend lessโ New Year resolutions.
