Lost it

[moo369]

I recently dismantled my desktop system, and moved everything into my son's room temporarily whilst I decorated my office space.

When the time came to set up the stereo and move everything back again a week or so later, I discovered that I'd lost my Wiim Mini. I don't mean it's dropped off the network or anything, I mean it's gone. Vanished. It's a total mystery.

Anyone got any ideas where it might be, or had experience of them disappearing? Is this a common fault?

Check your son's eBay listings

I'm so sorry, but it was just sitting there. Abandoned. Lonely. Crying out for love. It welcomed my warm embrace and followed me home. Now it's loved again and recovering from its PTSD.

Could be genetic. May be the Mini is on its Long March home. A long known Chinese phenomenom

Perhaps your son is on the hockey team?

Check the washing machine, that's where a lot of small electronic items go to die

Dammit, @Erebus! Could you just let it know that it was loved? Maybe I took it for granted sometimes, but I promise to do better in future. And it's welcome to come home any time. Thanks.

Could you just let it know that it was loved?

Oh, absolutely! It arrived screaming, but after long nights of fellowship and healing, I'm happy to report that it's back to streaming. Whether it decides to return to you is up to it or course. But we will support it either way.

Could you check - did it arrive along with my Amazon Fire TV remote?

Sorry. It did come with a lot of baggage, but nothing akin to an Amazon remote.

Do you have a cat? I'm sure that a cat would like to play with a WiiM Mini.

Unfortunately, sounds like, unfortunately you'll have to unfortunately upgrade! Sad...

We do, but I don't think he'd know how to download the app, so it'd be wasted on him.

I meant chasing it around the floor.

I don't think he could chase it, because it doesn't have any form of propulsion.

The Wiim I mean, not the cat...

The cat batting it about. My cats hit & chase things all the time.
