I’m not here anymore.
I’m now only using @[email protected]

@instapaper I’m generally OK with prices rises occasionally, but doubling the price is an instant unsubscribe for me. You can’t boast about not putting the prices up for 9 years while adding 9 years worth of price rises in one go

I know no-one is likely to care. But this is my last visit here. I’m on Mastodon now https://t.co/ivukTUHuzh

Come on over. It’s better than here, and we need more non-tech community people!

Yes, I am a bell-ringer, but not the usual type. I just go round vaguely reminding people of something.

@TravelSomerset Which part of Somerset do you think that warning covers?

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

@wes_chu For me, it’s 1 narrator or @Kramer_Reading for 2. I find the changes in style are often jarring to me.

Let’s join in, but only because I did OK today :-)

@craftginclub it seems @RoyalMail have decided my box of gin wasn’t flat enough and have delivered it crushed and wet. What is the way forward to getting a replacement?

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

@ES_Somerset @TheWhitePost Sorry. I know this is pedantic and besides the point, but each time this is posted it jars a little bit more. It straddles 2 counties, or 1 county border. As you were, it’s off my chest now 😁

Oh man. I'm going to try some other password managers as I hate @1Password 8, but the export from 1pw 8 is in a format that can't be imported anywhere. They are forcing me to uninstall and reinstall 1pw 7 to export my vaults. I think the chance of me switching just doubled

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

Sigh. The last of my favourite programs has died. @1Password 8 on Mac quick access is horrible. Time to install Lastpass again and see if that has improved and is any more usable that 1pw. What with this, and Safari becoming unusable in Monterey, bad times :-(

Don’t be tempted by the @valeriecafe Afternoon tea. Tiny tiny portions for the money and the scones were rock hard to the point of being inedible. Won’t be using them again as it feels like we’ve been scammed.

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

Bugger. I really wanted to love @NotSoBigCompany Big Mail app. The few niggles I found I can live with, but it wont accept my Office365 app passwords so I can't use it. Sad now :-(

@skyhelpteam Since the connection outage was resolved yesterday, despite being connected at 80Mb, my data transfer speed seems to actually be limited to 40Mb. Is this deliberate, or just broken?

@ben_cameron Many thanks for the March badge info with this months badge. My wife was pleased with this months badge, then was even more pleased when she found the info sheet. @PinBadgeClub is by far the best investment I've made in keeping my wife happy :-)

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

@ben_cameron My wife just told me she didn’t get an info sheet with the snail badge. Was there supposed to be one? If there was, any chance you have one left you could pop in with the next badge? She likes the info sheets quite a lot :-)

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

@Elite_Bistros Oh we understand, and we enjoyed it eventually, but didn’t enjoy the process this time. Felt too much less of a treat and tipped into feeling more like work. Anyway, no problems. If I cant have featherblade at home, it’ll just make it MORE of a treat if we’re in the area

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

Just read the instructions for tonights featherblade from @Elite_Bistros and it’s way more involved than last time. Didn’t think it was possible to be disappointed, but it’s definitely a step more than I was prepared for. Will have to have something else if there’s a next time 😭

[davebarfoot @davebarfoot]

@TaioApp @WorkingCopyApp Thanks for that. I didn’t immediately associate bookmarks with external sources, and when Taio didn’t show up and a provider in the files app, I just assumed no support. Lifetime license purchased. Thanks again.
