Hey @NGKids, you’re not responding to emails, you’ve taken down your phone-lines, and I’ve been charged for a subscription I didn’t want to renew despite emailing you to cancel weeks ago.

Does @NatGeo/@NatGeoMag know how much this damages their reputation? 🤬

I’ve turned off notifications from the @gmail App on iOS: a notification with no content saying only “You have received a message” (regardless of privacy settings, whether unlocked or not) is worse than useless 😡

Hey @AppleSupport, the storage in my Late 2013 Mac Pro is has just started asserting `Wear_Leveling_Count` (S.M.A.R.T. attribute value 100) - can I still buy a replacement “APPLE SSD SM0512F” direct from Apple?

… I know I have a boxed @Raspberry_Pi CM4 around here *somewhere* - but they’re tiny!

Can I find it anywhere at all?
No.
No I can’t 😩

(This is what I get for having had a clear-out recently 😫)

Hey @coopuk, wouldn’t you agree that this is an embarrassing & unsustainable amount of packaging for just two mince-pies? 🤨

(The tray insert is a full box - with a bit of thought, surely this could have just been a single sheet with edges folded down to form an inverse “U”?)

AI experiments can raise difficult, nuanced questions of ethics. Not the case here, though. Astonishingly bad.

What can YOU do about this? Well, I wrote the piece to let people know that the narrative that ends the most successful game in history is now in the public domain. So you could read my original piece, retweet this thread; let people know that it's free now, they can use it.

You have to read this. No, really.

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

This would be staggering if it were not actually sickening #NHSCrisis Most of it beggars belief , but the final snipe is frankly . . .

[Otto English @Otto_English]

That's it. That's the story.

For Mac users New Year is a time to check backups, put that Time Machine disk away as a snapshot, get a new one, Remember, if it's digital and you don't have at least three separate copies stored in different places, it's already gone. Untested backups aren't really backups.
