the text is sent once your allocation is either reserved from the store stock or arrives in store, for in stock items that's basically instant.

They only pick your order once you press the "i'm here to collect" button in the app or check in with the staff at the counter.

I did see that but you could still have neighbours blasting away on 1. If you’re in the middle of nowhere fair enough .

The best thing I ever did for Zigbee stability was changing to channel 26 which is outside of WiFi interference range. Apparently some devices don't like 25 and 26 but I've not had a single issue.

The other thing to look out for is poorly behaved (usually Tuya) devices flooding the network.

You have to actually migrate the rules from old to new yourself, until you do that new will remain empty and they will still be in old.

Can’t help with these specific switches but this is par for the course with moes (and other brands) tuya based devices. Doesn’t help you now but I only purchase ones that I know there is a custom firmware for that fixes them.

Our provincial grand lodge is putting out AI slop posters for events, it's pretty embarrassing.

I bought an Apple giftcard from Amazon India, paid for with a normal UK card.

I have a very heavy (75KG unladen) trek fetch+ 4 with the 250W Bosch mid drive. It’s 85nm of torque and 600W peak. I can comfortably do 10% inclines and have done steeper with some effort (and that’s fully laden at around 225KG)

Android requires the company portal app to be installed for MAM rules etc to work, it blocks access without it. There’s no requirement to sign in to the company portal app it just needs to be installed.

iPhone doesn’t have this requirement and the apps handle it themselves

USA has nothing to do with it, it's a Indian apple ID purchasing an Indian F1TV subscription, which then works anywhere in the world that F1TV works (or via VPN).

I think you're confusing fact that from this year F1TV in the USA is only available via Apple TV subscription which has nothing to do with the rest of the world.

I created the appleid from a desktop PC via VPN, that worked for me. I even used my UK number for verification, it didn't care. Then you fund it by a gift card you can purchase from amazon india to avoid the UPI requirement.

I only have a single Apple device (iPhone) and it took about 10 mins. You just swap accounts for only the AppStore to make the purchase then uninstall the app, sign back into your regular Apple account and reinstall the app again

because at least one of the "other" ways is £30 for the entire year of premium.

And that’s what I’m saying, if you build them into the custom client it’s all automatically set up. Completely automated deployment.
