This streaming session was plagued by problems. 
First off my main audio interface has stopped talking to the laptop, I've tried changing the USB lead and still... nothing. Something else broken that I can't afford to replace.

Then when I tried to start streaming, I was getting encoding errors from OBS. So I abandoned the first attempt to stream, closed down most of the applications, and started again. Yet again, nobody I know followed me, they've all got better things to do I guess. It's the same old story: when they need something I'm on the speed dial. If I want something, then tough: who are you. Why do I bother?
