Hey @apple. iOS offline podcasts: I download some because I want to listen to them off the grid. But it turns out you have to START them (just a couple of seconds) while online. If I don’t do this then my device complains I’m not connected and they won’t work. Please fix!!

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@la_dorkout @Tusk_4Real Totally agree. Money well spent on YouTube Premium. I learn a lot from YT.

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

Oh @carbonite you’ve succumbed to the great move towards collective enshitification. Now there’s nowhere to connect with a real person on your website. Been a customer for many years. I have a simple request. Thx

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@buitengebieden Can’t get mine to smile like that!

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@pylonofthonth here’s one for you, Downey, Southern California

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@fredlambert “Clutch”? I think you mean “crutch”. I for one enjoy your weekly podcast. I hope you’ll give us lots of Canadian perspective in the upcoming months. Elbows Up!

@engineers_feed Also, buy a replacement capacitor for the current one that will inevitably fail on the hottest day of the year. It’s the #1 thing that fails and is easy to swap out.

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@Ro82607Michael @engineers_feed Agreed. And I challenge the CEO of any healthcare company to explain *Even the simplest* Explanation of Benefits numbers…

Hey @kcrw “surpassing triple digits” would mean 4 digits. I know that’s not what you mean…

@Hilbe LA Zoo then take a hike in Griffith Park

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@itskyleconner @MotorTrend That’s in a very remote spot. If you have time try the Musical Road in Lancaster

Hi @MayorOfLA I’ve been walking the closed section of Mulholland every Sunday since Feb. Of the 4 slides 2 smaller ones are done. 2 larger ones just need filling but seem to have stalled. Loads of expensive rented plant lying around which I hope you’re not paying for by the day.

@LADWP I have been signed up for years. It’s a good start but it’s only marginally useful knowing “portions” of my neighborhood have lost power. I hope you’ll refine this to include a link that might show the actual geographic area affected one day.

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@Conqueroo1 @latimes Agreed on it being all about the host being hot!

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@bradjc5 @99piorg Doing the same. Just reading the introduction feels like a firehose of information. Trying to force myself to do 10 pages every day. @99piorg when is your first episode on this coming out? Need to be sure to keep up!

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

⁦@RateYourCharge⁩ Buttonwillow, CA. Location has moved I think. Now in a remote spot with 1 Portapotty and no food. Several stalls look to be broken. 3/10. App admits “no amenities” at this location

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

⁦@RateYourCharge⁩ San Ardo, CA. Unusual location at an Olive Farm on highway 101. Food options: 5 types of Olive Oil and a Coke machine. Restroom with code on Tesla App. 9/10

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@JustMacaluso @RateYourCharge On the map in a Tesla at a supercharger it typically shows a number in a red circle for how many stalls are available in real time. If things are really bad it turns into a black clock indicating you may have to wait.

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

⁦@RateYourCharge⁩ Lost Hills, CA. Good charge but navigation seemed stuck indicating 12 stalls available when really it was 1 when we arrived. Busy spot

[Oliver Pemberton @spannertech]

@peets what kind of fresh hell is this? This design of cup led to instant burnt upper lip for me. Did anyone ever test it on real people? [Scott’s Valley, CA Peet’s coffee location today]
