Hey @OctopusEnergy if anyone who's a member of Octoplus joins the Axle energy VPP for battery export, is it sufficient to simply not opt into any future Savings Sessions, or do they need to notify you in any way? Assuming they're not on IOF.

Gave our paid @GeminiApp functionality a go, simply convert a basic JSON array into a CSV file. COmpletely failed, initially not providing line breaks then point blank refusing to provide either all the data in a window or a downloadable file. Free ChatGPT did it in a jiff.

Now the outgoing export rate has dropped to 12p, is it worth charging to export anymore?

Great practical advice from AI.

What the hell? Renaming a chat in @claudeai loses all history within the chat and basically sets you back to square one with no visibility of the history anywhere. FFS.

Your money is never good enough for @Google. Even when you succumb to their nags to pay on top of the amount of money you already pay for Workspace and subscribe to Gemini, that nag is simply replaced by another nag to spend even more money with them.

Who at Tesla thought this was enough clearance around the inflator valve?

Why are people with granny chargers allowed on Octopus Intelligent Go? Surely this is a major reason why we're all about to be limited to 6 hours a night.

Except it's not a Wallbox, it's an Easee One using local OCPP routing through an Apache reverse proxy and using web socket connection upgrading.

Wonder if the @OctopusEnergy Agile team have gone home for the night, without posting tomorrow's rates? 😬

A great day mainly staying out of the way of the Everything Electric team. You'll soon be able to see me looking awkward on camera.

Just got back from Farnborough and need to charge to get back tomorrow, only to find the @PolestarCars Energy app has kicked me out and won't let me login again so can't charge through @OctopusEnergy Intelligent Go. This stuff needs to be more reliable.

Luton airport parking - £20 an hour. No wonder they take so long to get people through arrivals.
