A moment of regret, remembering all the ex twitter folk I came to love here, who have moved onto the bluesky beyond and other places.

I don't like how a new blue tick bot is forged for every response to an Elon post. It's fun how it likes stuff that disagrees with him.

Why does @NHSuk need to give my app login to 3rd party providers? It may want an internal personal record ID, but should use a dedicated and an independent server account role created explicitly for assured data transfer, not my private access credentials. So, permission denied.

If your app doesn't make it easy to send feedback, you don't seem to care about the people who keep your company alive. Have a button in the main app, not a bad link hidden in settings with more clicks. Do not ever make us fill in all the app and phone context - autofill it.

Apparently twitter no longer finds anti-Jewish comments against its rules (unless you threaten or encourage physical violence). It seems you can use explicit tropes to do as much psychological and social harm as you please here. Dismayed they didn't pursue my report.

Apart from that, I generally do not agree with the poster's politics at all. Not sure why I even saw her post.

I agree that this was a spectacularly stupid move. Completely undermines efforts towards a better climate future and shreds trust. @MayorofLondon

I recently received an email titled “An 18-year-old’s dilemma: Too late to contribute to AI?” Its author, who gave me permission to share this, is preparing for college. He is worried that by the time he graduates, AI will be so good there’s no meaningful work left for him to do

Don't count on there being an inheritance to provide for the cost of your accommodation in retirement if you didn't buy a home. It's cheaper to move in and look after your parent, until it is truly beyond your capability.

Visited a relative in a nursing home yesterday and was greeted with the sign below.👇🏽 The virus isn’t the the threat it was in 2020, but it’s still here… and it still hits seniors and high-risk folks hardest. Pretending otherwise puts the people we love in danger.

I suspect his aim is not about defamation, but about financially destroying a news company where he doesn't control the story. This is why we need to cap wealth. The tax is a nice side effect. Democracy needs shared power to thrive.

Bother, twitter was not on this morning's agenda. I just came online to check the stupid weather forecasts. I had a plan despite the rain. Now, resuming where I left off. Ciao.

Weather "forecasts" based on historical probability do not cut the mustard when planning outdoor activity. Updating that to what we can already see outside is NOT a service. Get trained meteorologists back please.

I don't seem to be able to edit contacts on my phone any more (recent change in behaviour). No option. Is that @SamsungMobile 's fault, or @Android's fault, that the app is broken?

Time for folk in UK to ensure pets are safely indoors. Just going to close the cat flap and put treats out now.

I can tell USA woke up. We've moved from UK nationalism and outrage to USA nationalism and outrage, and it is all nasty and sucks. Time to do something entirely more productive than watching this feed.

Gobsmacked. Royal Mail has just delivered a letter in a proper 1st class timeframe.

Deaths 3060x more likely from covid than from vaccine reactions. I know which side I prefer to bet on. And I'd like a booster please. Even if it gives me severe vertigo (coincident from 1 week after Astrazeneca, not after mRNA).

Had enough of attention seeking governments. What a great big heap of tosspots. Can we just ignore them out of existence? Aka step up the sanctions on a very personal level. Turn off their loudspeakers etc. Mute them. Filter news to just the important stuff. Oblige reflection.

How ironic. Both USA and Russia should stand down from all their threats. No-one wants to be invaded or receive aggressive military attention from outsiders. Not Ukraine, not Venezuela, not anywhere in Middle East. Nowhere.
