@AskPS_UK I’ve been trying all day to speak to someone via chat, but keep getting the “we’re too busy” message. Is there a better way to get hold of you?

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@franksudev Hey! Thanks for reaching out. I am the same Alex Brown, but I’m afraid that site has been retired 😔

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@MrMcSwiftface I’ve done that more times than I can count 😅

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@parcelforce I was supposed to receive a parcel today but i'm now seeing 'Secure PIN validation not possible', no delivery was attempted - can you advise?

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@easyJet it’s funny how you reply to public messages instantly, but fail to reply at all to DMs 🙃

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@easyJet I have a booking with 3 flights (two of which i'm on) for multiple people, why when adding hold luggage can I only add for all flights? The advice from your CS is to check bags at the airport, but can't give me any indication of cost... 😤

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

At this point I have to believe it’s a hardware fault, or it likely would have been fixed. Would love any advice if there’s a fix for this 😄

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

~1.5 years with a @PlayStationUK PS5 and I still can’t take it out of rest mode without it restarting or repairing storage 😒

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@official_JemAl @BrevinBlalock +1 for MX keys and MX master 3 combo! You can save some money and get the master 2 if you don’t care about the slightly updated design and multiple connected machines

[Alex Brown @abrown_dev]

@mehdok @spacemulecode Take a look at Stinsen! We use it to implement coordinators in SwiftUI without the need for UIKit https://t.co/XYJn3bnba8

@ios_dev_alb Yes! 🟢 = general log and 🔴 = error

@friendsthatcode Built my first iOS game at university using cocos2d/objc. Couldn’t work on it enough! Pretty much owe everything to that little twin joystick shooter 🕹
