Siri AI. It's like a mind for your bicycle. #WWDC

@JazRignall Not keen on the dark blue lettering on black tbh. If the Japanese one wasn’t shouting Sonic in the background in black letters I think it would have been a lot better

@nolaqueenrell Maintenance apparently!

ChatGPT is down and folks are discussing reliance on generative AI. I just rely on it because Google search is so poor these days

Looks like @gogcom / Prime codes are back on the menu boys! (Redeem is working again)

Varifocal contact lenses? Sort of - multifocals! https://t.co/2vIedhxRMP

A bit better, a bit greener. This changes everything. #AppleEvent

Great production but where's the innovation gone?

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

Everyone is playing #starfield - I'm away with just my MacBook wishing I could play Skyrim. You know - the game that was ported to 'everything'...

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

@DazmondReynolds Cheers Daz...but it was the comp lol!

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

I converted an old budget arcade stick into a hitbox for Street Fighter 6!. Now I just need to learn how to use it...

@MB_LUMINA Hi - on base Xbox One the game launches and shows the loading spinner-then crashes (v1.4.3.0). Reinstalled/rebooted console - still happening! #sendhelp

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

@virginmedia Quite excited by an 8pm slot - hadn't had one before. Back to 2pm in 2 days time. Don't worry about replying @virginmedia - not your SM team's problem. Glad the 'technician in my area' gets Sundays off anyway - he's 'been here' for a week!

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

Hi @virginmedia - no broadband since last Saturday (WV10). 'Technician in the area' on the status yet no vans spotted in the village at all. Constant resolution times moving in 3-6 hour increments then rolling over to next day. Automated msg on your helpline. What to do?

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

@virginmedia The thing is @virginmedia it's now 9am and apparently you are still hoping to have it resolved at 6pm last night. It doesn't fill me with much confidence. If the msg stated "major issue - may take a few days" I could have made alternative arrangements

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

@virginmedia It's the lack of updates that I don't understand @virginmedia . Apparently the technician has 'been in my area' since Saturday. And it's now 18:20 on the 3rd...

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

When your Virgin cable is down and you have to rely on tethering to a 4G connection from 'award winning' O2 in an area that is 'good for mobile broadband'. @Speedtest https://t.co/LZmjqSCX1m #speedtest #fkdfromallsides

So did someone at @EpicGames have one sherry too many and release the Director's Cut of Death Stranding by mistake? Great game (got on PS4 anyway - love it) - but that was a bit of a mess

#TheRumbleFish2 #XboxShare @3goo1 slowdown in arcade mode too (correct hashtag this time... :-)

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

#XboxShare #TheRunbleFish2 slowdown appears to start after full screen effects ⁦@3goo1⁩

[Andy Pickering @pro9ram]

Hi @3goo1 (sorry for the English. I hope the translate options works for you!). The Xbox port of Rumble Fish 2 is broken - the game slows down to 50% speed after a few minutes (tested on Xbox One + Series S)
