@RHSAthletics4 Redmond track team showing us exactly what you should NOT DO during the peak of COVID Delta... I thought Redmond High School was smarter than this, so disappointing.

@seattletimes King County sherrifs still aren't wearing masks in public today despite the new rules. Everyone else is capable of doing it except them.

@Office365 making Bing the default search option without consent when installing Office is messed up, wrong, and basically brings Office down to the level of infested freeware software that would change a bunch of things on your computer!

@backcountry your CEO and leadership are in serious need of change. Your lawsuits are ridiculous and you've lost me and my friends as customers forever #boycottbackcountry #scrapethegoat

@divaypandey @windowsdev @JenMsft Hey Divay, we've found the cause of this loop. This will be fixed in the next version of Windows. The NotificationChanged event handler in your code causes the OS to enter the loop. Instead, use the background task trigger as described in the docs https://t.co/aCaF4Sfqfx Thanks!

@divaypandey @windowsdev @JenMsft Thanks Divay, investigating!!

@divaypandey @windowsdev @JenMsft Hey @divaypandey, Andrew from the Notifications team here. We can't reproduce your issue. Can you share more as to how you're repro'ing this issue? What does your app's code do upon reading notifications from Listener? Does it pop a toast or anything?

[Andrew Leader @andrewleader7]

@lancewmccarthy Toasts can actually fit quite a bit of text. The second line can contain around 315 lower-case L's, so I'd say use 315 chars

[Andrew Leader @andrewleader7]

@lancewmccarthy Hey! We currently don't have any guidance like this for toasts, but we'll publish some in the future. Thanks!

@bezysoftware Direct message me, or send an email to the email address found in the Notifications Visualizer app!

[Andrew Leader @andrewleader7]

@DrawboardPDF Your toasts are appearing as "New notification" on Windows 10. Direct message me, I work for Microsoft and know the fix.

@UofA Blackboard is down!! Not cool, I have things due tonight. When is it going to be back?

@ch1ckenpie Girls should never wear makeup! They look better without it, they look real!

New #WP twitter app looks great! It's finally a decent app.

Comcast is so awful. 6 days without internet all because of their terrible DNS server issues... And our internet still doesn't work.
