Firmware update rendered my (very-exi) earphones useless 🪫. Promised a support call in 1-2 days. Now 30 days later & nothing. Fair Trading complaint submitted. Not good enough #sony @sonyaustralia Meanwhile son's cheaper JBL still going strong.

I discovered 1st hand how bad Google's auto conversion from UA to GA4 is when a client selecting this option then reached out for support. So bad. Solution: trash & start again with a new GA4 property. DON'T select auto setup GA4!

16yo does 1 kitchen hand shift but no paperwork, no contact info, not asked TFN. Before 2nd shift I called owner to discuss. Apparently all legit. 2nd shift canceled at short notice & never asked back again. Suss or what?

1st time @Coles click collect order fail. 3of5 items not avail. Didn't bother collecting 2 items. Refund is no problem but I need to call. Est wait time = 10 minutes 😡. I think I'll go back to @woolworths where refunds are done online in seconds via chat app.

It’s a tough life when you’re in temp foster care at the Redheads. I’m having to practice my sleeping Buddha yoga moves to cope. instagram.com/p/Cfd_fQ1pGPx/…
One ear for hearing and the other for looking cute. If you’re lacking a running buddy and a best mate for lounge snuggles… I’m your guy. My profile will be online very soon so you can swipe right. #YogiDog instagram.com/p/Cfd0JggJ1Lq/…
Before I provided my mobile number I specifically asked @TheGoodGuysAU if I'd be added to any subscription list or be contacted via SMS for any reason. "No, definitely not" was the answer. It's only for cashier to find your order. 1 day later:

Some serious siren activity happening right now in Mayfield #Mayfield2304 #NewcastleAU
Just me or do you tune into the 11am NSW Health daily live feed specifically to hear about case numbers but lose focus during the vax stats? Obv an attempt to say "look how good we're doing" but wish they'd cut to the chase. PS: My attention span is no match to Hazzard's drone.

Pretty neat work from a local HSC Student @_BryceHam providing regional COVID-19 data in visual form. A career in webdev? (Or perhaps politics, journalism or environment activism).

There were 14 new cases of COVID-19 in the Hunter Valley to 8pm last night. 7 of these cases were infectious in the community. 5 of today's cases are in the suburb of Mayfield. View today's daily briefing at covid.bryce.eco #covid19NSW

Great Aunty Judy, you’ve made our entire week 😍 Thank you for playing, keep spreading that joy. 🎥: Ang Roan via Instagram.
Tree loppers were in Mayfield ⁉️ Residents still have 'Sau Tree Services' business card; said they were from Toronto. Large tree lopped in yard near me; onsite 1-2 days - same crew? Get tested if they visited you! @NSWHealth @abcnewsNewcstle @newcastleherald @nswpolice

If tree loppers, tradies & other non-essential services travel from Sydney, possibly COVID , a lockdown is completely & utterly pointless. ⁉️ How do Hunter businesses currently in lockdown & unable to operate (or make profit) feel about this? #Hunterlockdown #newy #COVID

Yep, up to 5 per day. I'm a calm driver, but is there such thing as spam rage? #spamrage

Getting hammered with SMS spam? You're not alone. The Flubot malware scam links to an App download which infects Androids with Malware which can access contacts & potentially passwords. Stop before you click any SMS/iMessage links #FUspam
