@EBGamesAus @EBGamesAus support says
"We are unable to assist you further with this one". Wow. You could just replace the items not received immediately (or refund!). It's not hard.

[David J Beitey @davidjb_]

@EBGamesAus You lost an order of mine 2+ months ago. Zero help from your support staff (David F, Tarlei, Nathan), with over a MONTH of trying. Time to make this right?

[David J Beitey @davidjb_]

@EBGamesAus Details sent. Getting this resolved ASAP would be appreciated.

@freenas Certain security certificates for *.freenas.org domains have expired (eg sites like https://t.co/F7f6dc8RbY or https://t.co/PnoeQ0DkZY report expired certs on connecting).

@Asher_Wolf Found out that opting out of @MyHealthRec doesn't get your data deleted. You need to request data deletion separately via a phone call; I've asked for confirmation in writing (for the little it's worth)

[David J Beitey @davidjb_]

@AmyThunig @Asher_Wolf For those of us whom it fails, keep calling them on the phone. It could take hours but you will eventually get answered. Demand case references and a physical written response! @MyHealthRec

[David J Beitey @davidjb_]

@MyHealthRec @smh Wow, guilt shaming much? "You'll die without a @MyHealthRec!" @darkpatterns

Hey @firstdogonmoon, any plans for a Cassandra the Information Technology Wobbegong plush? #shutupandtakemymoney

@twistieman @dev_nq Let's test in a few years' time! What'll last longer: the floppy disk or the React JavaScript on it?

Just realised that on regional Australian TV, the WIN network became Channel 10 and 10 became Channel 9 over a year ago. I don't watch TV.

@danmurphys Sure, but the prompts don't stop til you do. It's more why Gender is a field at all: consider users of non specific gender, for instance.
