@jhleath @nikshepsvn I think the "working it out" part of coding allows you to go through the mental gymnastics of "does this make sense?" and "what about this edge case?" that's a lot easier than when reviewing. I can see that as a big driver.

@verge Anyone managed to get them to replace anything? Can't get them to reply to my email

@vikingphotoyork @ITSupportYorkUK @Graeme_Osborn @RupertLear @CityFibre Major Incident Management can confirm that a specialist electrician is currently en route to the site, with an estimated arrival time of 22:30. Upon arrival, a thorough investigation will be conducted to determine the root cause of the recurring outage.

@vikingphotoyork @ITSupportYorkUK @Graeme_Osborn @RupertLear @CityFibre Managed to get this update:

The Major Incident Team is currently investigating an incident affecting 4,075 customers on the FTTH network in York. CityFibre M&E engineers have tasked Magdalene to revisit the York FEX to assist in determining the root cause of the issue.

@Graeme_Osborn @RupertLear @CityFibre Mine came back, and has gone down again? Anyone else seeing this?

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@Graeme_Osborn @RupertLear @CityFibre Snap - my ISP said multiple users reporting authentication problems on the line, meaning the lights are all green but no connection.

Unfortunately @CityFibre aren't great at updates 😔

@currys you're online & phone customer service is terrible. I'd leave a 0 star rating if I could find a good place to do so. Yet you're in store staff are amazing and I'd leave a 10 star review. You need to sort out you're support model I'm afraid.

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@ggreer I didn't realise you followed me - probably saw my email about @Floobits.

I guess you don't use it anymore? Do you use something else instead as it's still the best pair-programming tool I've used. Most are peer to peer meaning only host can run code which sucks 😞

Hey @netflix - how do I turn on Subtitles just for foreign languages?

I find I can have them off, or in in English. I don't want them on all the time, just with foreign dialogue that I can understand...

@wizkidsgames could you tell me what the future for Star Trek Attack Wing is? Just venturing into it, it's great fun but really really hard to get any ships/packs in the UK, apart from the very latest 3 packs that were released. #staw

@znighab @WorldBollard @Specsavers @aidanmcnelis It was really well done, but quite obviously a marketing stunt. The fixed penalty notice for a start had the "should have gone to Specsavers" printed on it.

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@aidanmcnelis Yeah, what a great marketing stunt!

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@AskWithings @Withings On the forums it said that this was an issue with Android 14. But I experienced this issue before Android 14 was even released...

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@Withings when are you going to fix your issues with the Scanwatch?

So many people complaining about battery life, yet you're support team is providing no updates or timelines for fixes.

It's the worst customer support I've seen in a long time 😔

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@AskWithings @Withings I have no idea anymore, my original support ticket was closed despite it not being resolved... 2198916. I tried to follow up and got ignored so contacted chat again and got more numbers 2200138, 2200557, 2210149 and 2219845

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@wtupyo @LegendaryScoop @Withings @ZDNET Glad it sorted for you. Plenty of people here in iOS with issues still https://t.co/JTewsBRn9X

The original issue was reported way before Android 14 was even released

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@wtupyo @LegendaryScoop @Withings @ZDNET Yeah, I read that where they said it was Android 14 at fault @wtupyo. But I had the issue on Android 13 and there are iOS users with the same issue, so it doesn't add up.

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@AskWithings I'd like to know when you're going to fix the battery drain issues on the ScanWatch.

It's been over a month since I contacted support (as have many others in the forums) and we've no updates and no timelines.

[Ian Wright @IPWright]

@Antho2425 @Withings This is being experienced by a lot of people in their forums too 😞
