New LTS release

I am writing this blog post on behalf of the release manager, as she has been frantically working through the night to ensure the latest version is released as intended.

It is with great pleasure that the Walker household can announce, following 9 months of development, our second LTS release; codenamed “Babbling Boy”. This LTS (Long Term Support)  release has an undetermined support period, but it’s likely to far exceed 34 years. Our first release, now 4 years old, is still well supported and testing has proved that that both versions co-exist happily.

This time the release is of the male variant, currently sporting a blue themed baby grow.  Release weight was a stonking 8lbs 2oz.

Unfortunately, as this is a bespoke release with a single limited edition version, full demo is by appointment only.  However, a screenshot is appended to the end of the notice.

Known Bugs

  • Will awake from suspend without warning
    • Work around, is to provide reassurance.
  • Inconsistently produces excess noise.
    • It is advised to wear ear defenders.
  • Produces bad odours.
    • Keeping the “Waste folder” empty, reduces period of bad odour exposure.

Another way to work with the suspend bug is to provide fluid of the type BM at body tremperature.
