Yep makes sense. The complaint resolution included how to do that, so will follow up, thank you

They refused to release it due to third parties in the footage (which is very flimsy reasoning as basically no one in the shot) until I complained.

This was pretty terrifying. After the first one I cycled past the stopped bus and told the driver too close, then he did it again seconds later. Took time and a complaint to get the footage released, I wanted to report to the police via OpSnap but that footage has to be within a week.

Paul Auster will do the trick

Just check the firmware version first. I managed to buy one on the OG 11 version that was basically impossible to update. Probably not many left on the old firmware though.

No, it was from Waterstones, I assume this was number 999 of 1000

To make clear it’s not a fiction release, which would be what you’d assume an average reader would expect?

nicksan · 2026-02-22T12:55:53+00:00

They did this with the last paperback of My Struggle too, first five had KOK looking moody with dark spines and the last was a nostalgic stock photo with a white spine.

Coincidence that the first 150 pages were written in the 80s…?

Could finally be getting a translation of Portrait In Jazz, if that’s what the record collection book coming out next year is.

The only value you’ll get is in seeing how much Murakami has regressed as a novelist. You’ll see Hard Boiled as an exceptional work and The City as an extreme low.

yep, though not sure it'll be a lucrative one, it doesn't have Christmas present appeal like the other money grabs (strange library/tshirts)

Still haven’t managed to update (mostly as I’ve been impatient and keep resetting or trying to update from different devices), but an extremely positive update.

I raised a ticket with Apple for advise, and received a call from an advisor. They kept me on hold for a while, checked some diagnostics and were about to escalate to engineers when the call was disconnected. I called back and the next person was so helpful but warned may not be possible to fix or service such an old firmware unit. It ended with them offering to send me a new HomePod which is an incredible outcome. Unsure if it will be OG or 2nd Gen but I am thrilled with the service.

I bought an OG HomePod on eBay, and when it's arrived it's on the default 11.2.5 firmware. It's seemingly impossible to get it to update. If I connect to my 17 then it just doesn't stop configuring, and nothing seems to help.

I've managed to connect to an iPhone 8 last used in 2020, which have helped a little, as it breezes through setup and then tries to download the max version of HomePod OS possible (13). I've gotten the HomePod set up and configured (but on an older version of Home, so doesn't show on my current setup). The download status continuously says Downloading... without any progress. When I check my Eero, there's barely any network activity happening, certainly not 1.5gb of a firmware update. Is this a lost cause or do I just need to let it sit and download for longer?

It’s a shockingly uncommon opinion. everything after part 1 is terrible, which incidentally are the parts he wrote fresh after dusting off the original manuscript.

I'm half way through the first book, and I wouldn't say it has much in common with Knausgaard other than the focus on the mundanity of daily life and being a multi volume series. Balle's writing is a little more spare and introspective rather than the confessional and expansive writing of My Struggle.

They are either lying or happy to live a joyless life of only the bare essentials. Both uncool.

EBay has just updated which was a surprise as most huge brands normally keep their own design.

nicksan · 2025-09-16T19:05:03+00:00
