@SamsungMobile My Samsung Health app updated yesterday and it looks like a bunch of new features were added, which is great. But unfortunately, I can't use them until my Watch8 gets OneUI 9. When can I expect a watch OS update? Thanks.

Under 24 hours left in the #PNP #game Trial by Fire by Josselin Loizeau @Kickstarter at https://t.co/Nyt6w8B5p7 and more stretch goals to unlock. Up to 180 quests with tactical depth and high replayabillity, balancing survival with greed, for only $3 -- check it out soon!

[James @Dronak]

@DanielWhit64754 @Kickstarter I'm not aware of any special rewards by country or region, no. If that is done, it's probably very rare, because I've backed a lot of stuff over the years and can't remember that happening.

[James @Dronak]

Trial by Fire, via @Kickstarter https://t.co/Nyt6w8B5p7 could use some help unlocking the highest level stretch goals. If we raise enough money, we can get a campaign mode and maybe even a year-long adventure. As a print-and-play #PNP #game, it's low cost, so check out out!

@USPS @USPSHelp Why did I just get email about a package delivery that was made today and not in my city? Did someone mess up and associate the package with my account by mistake for some reason?

[James @Dronak]

I don't think @ExaltedFuneral is active here, but it looks like the flash sale on Monty Python #RPG items that ended Friday was really a clearance sale. None of it's listed anymore. :( Glad I ordered what I was missing, but sad that the whole line practically just disappeared.

[James @Dronak]

@USPS @USPSHelp Can you explain why two packages from the same shipper that arrived at the same post office at the same time were not both processed together? One was delivered already while the other is still technically pending acceptance? This makes absolutely no sense to me.

[James @Dronak]

And the @Crunchyroll new player switched over to a "skip intro" button once the recap was done, so I've had a button sitting there in the corner for a full 3 minutes now. 😒 Again, maybe fade it out faster?

[James @Dronak]

The new video player on @Crunchyroll has some issues: just started Rent-a-Girlfriend S5 E1, and the "skip recap" button has been on for 1 minute, blocking subtitles in the corner due to way the screen is split to show multiple scenes at the start. Maybe fade it out faster?

[James @Dronak]

@Crunchyroll You and I Are Polar Opposites E12 is giving me a network error in multiple browsers, so I can't watch the finale. :( Please fix ASAP.

[James @Dronak]

@fillitforward Your app got updated today, and while opening messages no longer crash the app, I still can't delete the project complete ones in my inbox. Also, tracker numbers are still hidden behind their text, at least for week and month. Please fix these bugs, too. Thanks.

[James @Dronak]

@fillitforward Are you aware of problems with your Android app? Last 2 giving project complete messages crash the app if I open them, 3rd back is missing delete option, and home screen reuse tracker numbers are hidden behind their text labels. Please fix in next update. Thanks.

[James @Dronak]

It looks like @Crunchyroll has changed their video player and a lot of people don't like it (see, for example, https://t.co/NDkvwBb4Da). Hopefully they're seeing the complaints and planning to address them, especially since I don't remember notice or reason being given for this.

[James @Dronak]

@Maryland_Alumni I've gotten a few emails at my work address recently, but that address isn't in my profile. How am I supposed to prevent you from messaging me at work? Please let me knew. Thanks.

[James @Dronak]

It appears to have taken several hours, but @Crunchyroll seems to be working again. I should have enough time tonight to finish catching up today, but I would have been current hours ago if it weren't for site problems. 😐

[James @Dronak]

Yesterday, 3 #anime on @Crunchyroll had no English subtitles, 1 for 12+ hours, 1 for 24+ hours. Just now, the site glitched, stopping me from watching new releases even though I'm a paid subscriber. And soon they're going to charge more (at least at my level). 😠 Not good.

[James @Dronak]

@Crunchyroll What's going on now?! The show I was watching stopped all of a sudden, and the site is apparently having problems recognizing that I'm a paid member, sometimes showing resubscribe pop-ups. Please fix this. I can't catch up if you won't let me watch what I paid for.

[James @Dronak]

@Crunchyroll 24 hours without English subs for A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans episode 7, and 14 hours without English subs for SI-VIS episode 20. Please fix both ASAP. This is far too long for released shows to be missing subs, especially with prices rising soon.

[James @Dronak]

@Crunchyroll And I just realized SI-VIS: The Sound of Heroes Episode 20 is also missing English subtitles: third show today with this problem. 😠 Now it'll be even harder to catch up tomorrow with Sunday's very heavy lineup getting 2 shows added (if you fix this and Misanthrope by then).

[James @Dronak]

@Crunchyroll Almost 12 hours after A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans episode 7 was released, the English subtitles are *still* missing. You should have all the sub languages ready at release time. Why is it taking so long to get the English ones when others are up?
