@noblechairs I'm trying to buy a chair that's been marked down, but every time I try to add it to my basket it goes in at full price. Am I doing something wrong? I thought maybe "free shipping" was overriding the black Friday discount but can't see how to remove to check
Hey @DisneyPlus, any reason there's no HD streaming on Linux? Chrome and Firefox both run the same DRM on Linux as they do on Windows so what's the story? If I can't stream HD, there's really no point in me having Disney+
Hermes/Evri whatever they call themselves now are still absolutely shocking. Due to be delivered yesterday, tracking just says "out for delivery" - status not changed since 10am yesterday (checked at close to midnight... Still apparently out for delivery due that day!). Useless
I appreciate Hermes' efforts to improve it's reputation by rebranding as Evri, but this would be better acchieved by being less shit at delivering parcels.
Yo, next door neighbour, if your parcel arrived broken it's because you're @UPS courier full on just threw it out of his van onto the road, then kicked it to face label side up. Dude either did not realise I was watching him or did not care
@SNeurotypicals Had a boss tell me once "I'm an excellent communicator. It's not my fault if you don't listen properly".
He did not appreciate it when I corrected him
@_Poulpy @Boblet3001 @lunaria710 @AutisticCallum_ Haha I remember an ex girlfriend once asking why so many of my friends were autistic. At the time I didn't know...
@AdmiralMemo @BillHayden65 @lunaria710 @AutisticCallum_ I have taken to telling my girlfriend to "ask the actual question you want an answer to" whenever she asks something vague or weird. Sometimes it takes two or three tries for me to figure out I need to ask her that, but it's neat when I do
@theonlyKTB @AskADHD Yep, I pace up and down, pick things up and put them back, look out the window... All sorts. Even medicated I'm like a squirrel looking for a nut when I'm on the phone
