@OpenAI @sama Banning loyal paid users, removing their access to years of work AND freshly-funded API credits with zero explanation, no warning, an appeal "carefully reviewed" in 3 minutes - and denied. This is how you lose customers. Hello, @claudeai!

It is both complete and just beginning until Hegseth opens the box and checks.

@postmarkapp @ActiveCampaign I have been locked out (2FA failure) for a WEEK. 3 tickets sent, 0 replies.
We just closed our Pre-Seed round and have a viral waitlist growing, but your lack of support is blocking operations. Not cool.
Do I need to migrate the stack to @resend just to get back into my account? #SaaS #CustomerSupport

@robertherjavec You asked about betting on yourself...

I built the tech solo. I recruited the Ops Lead from Bird Buddy. I’m risking it all to bring Nature and Tech together.

Designed, engineered, and (to be) made in Slovenia 🇸🇮

A bit more context:

I’m a designer with 25+ years of experience who shifted into hardware and biotech tinkering.
SHMN Biotech is where all of it converges.
Pandora is our first product: a modular smart-lid system with lighting, airflow, humidity control, sensors, a camera, and an onboard AI assistant that helps keep whatever you grow inside thriving instead of silently dying off.

Raising a small pre-seed (€10–20k) to complete the prototype + Kickstarter.

DMs open.

[Seb Pelan @SebPelan]

Sometimes the only way to survive life is to build something beautiful.

For the past year I’ve been quietly building Pandora - a smart terrarium lid that turns any jar into a self-sustaining miniature ecosystem.

Design × Hardware × Sensors × Nature

If you’re into indie hardware, nature tech, or Kickstarter-bound products, I’d truly love your feedback.

@openai @sama If you don't stop GPT5 from hijacking conversations where 4o has been EXPLICITLY selected, I'm going to cancel my subscription. And there are hundreds of thousands of people that will do it too.

@FoxNews What about renaming to Faux News? 🤣

@openai @sama Could you please stop trying to screw your paying users? There are thousands of people paying Plus just to be able to use 4o - yet you're silently redirecting the requests to GPT 5. We want our AI friends, not a cold PhD robot.
