ASKII - Woods[^]
This weeks SOTW is so obscure I couldn't even find it on YouTube 
I found it on Bandcamp, but it's on Spotify too, so I guess it isn't that obscure...
Anyway, it's calming ambient music inspired by Skyrim.
It could've been Skyrims soundtrack and I found myself wanting to revisit Skyrim when listening to this.
I love Skyrims soundtrack though, so I love this as well.
Hopefully it'll bring you some rest in these weird times as well

Hey Sander, how's your kitty now?

Still under the kitchen
She comes out at night to eat, even when I'm sitting on the couch at a safe distance.
So at least I see her almost daily now, if only for a few minutes.
Two nights ago she even came from under the kitchen just to look at me for five to ten minutes straight 
Last week I let the door open and she ventured into the attic, which didn't end well for her because I found her (with a cobweb on her face) and took this hella cute picture[^]
She eats, drinks and uses the litter box, so she's fine physically.
She also doesn't seem stressed or scared anymore, just shy and careful.
Her warranty ends today so she's stuck with me now

So she's been paying attention to the news? Smart cat!

Very relaxing. Here's a new find (although it isn't very new, but the video does compete with another favorite already shared), and an old classic.
I think I've already shared this cat advise as well, but if not, one thing to do is just stand next to them when they eat. Often, they will let you pet them at that time. Evidently it satisfies their pack instinct, and puts them at ease.
Kit Kat is still very unsocial, but when I come in from walking Sophie she likes it if I scoop up some food out of her dish, sit on the couch, and let her eat from my hand. She will sometimes sit with us on the couch, but if I pet her too much then, she will take off to get away from all the attention.

Yes, more trance!

This one's actually on my playlist, thanks to you, and I've listened to it a couple of times last week 
I think it's event been SOTW before.
The album is in my Spotify favorites, but this track is the best.

That's a little less my style.

She won't eat when I'm close and she won't let me close when she eats, soooo... That's a problem

Do you leave the food dish out all day? If so, maybe put it in the cupboard until designated feeding times, and put it back up after those times. Kit Kat gives me attention if there's no food out. Since I usually leave it out, that means when her bowel is empty.

I leave the food out all day, so that may be a good idea, although I'm afraid she'll starve

Thanks to the help I received here I have setup a repo and know how to commit / sync push to Github from VS. Possible my last question is ? Once I've commited and pushed the project to GH from machine one , should I clone it every time I open the project on machine two ? or just sync it if I have it already checked out. My thinking is, I should sync it if it is already cloned to machine two , or clone it if it isn't. Thanks chaps.

you clone once and pull after that to get the latest code.
I'd rather be phishing!

Are you not able to view it then?

No it says something like awaiting approval
Edit
It's available now thanks Richard

Lets make sure pkfox has the basics down solid before going into advanced features with elevated footgun potential.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking.
Keep in mind my use case is very simple, as I'm not working with a team - others here might have better techniques:
The only time I clone is pulling the code for a new machine. Otherwise, I just sync before I start coding.
Sync will initiate any outstanding pulls. in general i've had better luck using sync than issuing push or pull requests.

Hi, I'm not in a team either but I do use several machines - your method should work fine for me - thanks for the mini tutorial too it got me up and running

cool! I'm glad it worked for you. It was off the top of my head so I wasn't sure if maybe i forgot a step or something, but then you got it working so i figured no harm, no foul.
I like to keep it simple with github.
The only wrinkles you might want to know about now:
A) if you create a public repo, make a README over at github, then sync from VS to pull it into your local project copy.
B) if you build your binaries to a custom folder they'll be uploaded to github as it only ignores the bin and obj folders in the default locations last i checked. You might consider this a feature, or a bug depending on how you feel about it.

A very short and understandable description of the difference between pull, fetch, and sync:
TortoiseGit: What's the difference between "Git Sync", "Fetch" and "Pull"? - Stack Overflow[^]
(Ignore the fact that this is for TortoiseGit - the concepts are the same.)
Quote: Git pull is a git fetch followed by git merge
Git fetch fetches info about remote repositories
Git sync does everything in one command meaning pull and push
The link above includes "read more" links for further reading.
And as others have said, cloning is used only when the repo doesn't already exist on the machine.
I prefer pull rather than sync because I want to push in a controlled manner -- only when my code compiles and is tested. There are many times when I have my code with compiler errors or it's in a "work in progress" state, so I'm not ready to push it up, as this will probably break other people's stuff. However, sometimes I do need to pull down other people's stuff while I'm working on my own.
If I want other people to see my "work in progress", I'll create a local branch for my changes, then push that branch. That way, I'm not messing up the master and other branches (like qa, test, etc.)
Similarly, if someone has a special branch that I want to look at, I'll do a fetch to see that branch in the list of repo branches, then do a "check out" of that branch to my local machine.
That was probably TMI - I got carried away.

One thing that took me a while to understand about git.
It treats the ENTIRE repository as image, for lack of a better word, so if you have a file in your current branch that does not exist in a different branch, and you switch branches that file will vanish. Worry not! It is not gone because if you switch back to the original branch the file will reappear.
Assuming of course you have committed the files.
