@Stanleaerlingus Thank you
I managed to get through and the support agent did just make the change

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

Hey @AerLingus I screwed up when booking. as per t&c, I tried to contact within 24 hrs.

I had to abandon on hold with support line after 1+ hr on hold and tried your message option. It took days to actually get a human to respond, and all they can say is it's now beyond 24hrs.

@jdooley_clt I totally missed your session, will catch it when it replays.

@ashleymcnamara I never wrote a cheque until 2016 when I moved to the US. And people still use them here today!!!

Because of that I can tick 24/25 (never owned a pager)

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@ryancrawcour @nickdaleburns more efficient with one less finger to move :)

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@stufox @ryancrawcour @nickdaleburns I find I preferred lightshot for either OS. I have it setup for cmd+shift+9

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@nzregs @ryancrawcour I love lightshot on mac and windows for screen captures.
I haven't installed rectangle on my mac yet, is it like using fancy zones?

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@ryancrawcour @matteastnz I mean I go to terminal a bunch instead of GUI

But I'm kinda annoyed with using a delete key like the del key on windows in a doc. You have to do alt-delete for that

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@ryancrawcour @nickdaleburns three finger swipe up is another fav

a lot of the others are easy - use ctrl-char vs apple(ctrl)-char

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@ryancrawcour @nickdaleburns Ctrl-space is a favourite

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@tjcrowley @medus4_cdc @TC_Johnson Please no
That is horrendous

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@jdooley_clt @github @jldeen Were you guys a package deal??

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@chrisjohnson_nz I love the car we got my wife. It drives great and we ordered online

But we had to go into a dealer and put up with their shit for 2+ hours and threaten to request redelivery to another location to get out with the car/price we ordered.
I couldn't agree more with you

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@jesseproudman Also the coldest, at least that is what Steve said

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@B_Inacio_ @shankuehn @jvallery Did she get kicked out of the coffee shop??

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@Adman_NZ Onto Pig Butchering now

Good timing as I was listening to a @DarknetDiaries podcast on this the other week

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@Adman_NZ I thought it may of been that.

I was finding it hard to justify for just super rugby, especially Australian teams

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@Adman_NZ How are you watching it?

[Ben Di Qual @bendiq]

@matvelloso Nice work mate! I'm waiting for the spinning hat pic
