@Halfords_uk Yes, you've explained that the reason you need that information is that "we would need to contact the store and have them get back to us". That's a bit of a non sequitur - no part of that process requires my contact details.
@Halfords_uk Hi, you've got this sign up at your Winnersh store. Is it true? If so, why do you do this? Leaving aside the obvious fact that "4 equals 0" isn't what anyone would expect, why have 1-4 at all? You might as well offer only 0 and 5, or even just 0 and 1.
@Halfords_uk Yes, I noticed - you've sent me a DM asking for my full name, email address and phone number, none of which you need to answer this straightforward question. Do you count a feedback score of 4 as zero or don't you? If so, why?
@LydiaMizon FWIW, I don't think that bit is anywhere near as bad as you remember it. I didn't even notice it during the recording, and on broadcast it seemed like a very rapid nonevent.
@snathe All my recent Linux machines use the AltGr key for this, but not with a control code.
AltGr+2 puts an umlaut on the next letter
AltGr+6 puts a circumflex on the next letter
AltGr+' puts an acute accent on the next letter
Posting here to announce that I can now be found on bsky as graemecole. This feels like the social network equivalent of using Edge to download Chrome.
Scrolling through Twitter & I see this on my timeline.
I think, โthatโs odd thereโs no way Iโd choose to follow this sort of crypto BSโ
So I look at the acct. Itโs also followed by dozens of comics. Thatโs even odder.
So I scroll back &find old conversations it was in. Andโฆ

@Hayleystevens I just wish they would put as much research effort into questions like "what was in that corner of the room, were there any ordinary but vaguely man-shaped objects" as they do into their standard "who died in or near this building" every week.
@DavidJBodycombe I'm going with "who" all day long. Madison may be the object of the bit before the comma, but I don't think that's also true for the bit after. In "X was not pleased", X is a he/she/they (who), not a him/her/them (whom). And "...whom was not pleased" just sounds wrong anyway.
@AdamLatchford Unless you have some additional context which I don't, this seems harsh. To me it just looks like a contestant who got beaten on every round by a strong opponent and tried to make the best of it. SEALED was a perfectly respectable spot from AIEDJSELD, and he declared first.
