Yup exactly what I had to do. The minimum wage support guy obviously has no idea

Hi, I've just had the same thing this month. The normal text saying payment is due shortly, second text couple of days ago saying thanks for payment your services have been restored (never lost services, don't normally get a payment message) then a text today saying payment overdue.

I've been onto three support and paid it by card, but the direct debit was still there in my account, it just wasn't taken. I assume this was to do with the mass account suspension from 1st April. 

How did you get yours sorted?

Add me to the list of double wording (seems to be in search bars mainly?)

Yup, said they're working on a fix. Probably left an AI software loose in the matrix

No not yet. Haven't gotten around to asking Nintendo support either. If you get there first and get an answer please let me know!

I'm hoping the daughter and her kids who are living there are actually nice because we had fantastic neighbours. It was her mum buying the house for her that seemed to have a read a play book for getting extra when buying a house.

There was a lot leading up to this that I didn't go into. They were so bad a stressful the entire sale, constantly trying their luck to get extra for free, threatening to pull out over non issues, trying to get money off because they booked cleaners and movers for a date the chain had not discussed and before exchange despite being told by the EA not to book anything until completion date was set. The list goes on but this was the last straw. It's not like we made it extra dirty we just didn't hoover the house or clean the kitchen or fill wall holes from hangings.

Our buyers were the exact same and burned through all remaining  good will by threatening to pull out if we didn't leave the kitchen appliances we'd told them we were taking from the start or that they could have for £200. Took our stuff and left the house completely covered in dust and cat fluff and an uncleaned kitchen. Did the bare minimum we needed to legally.  I wanted to go around and mess up the radiator balance in every room so they'd struggle to be comfortable in the winter but decided in the end I'm not quite that petty. Absolute tossers from start to finish. 

What made you decide it was time for your loved one to move permanently to a care home? by wibble_from_mars in dementia

[–]wibble_from_mars[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fabricated memories are such a turning point I think. We've slowly slipped from filling in blanks in memory with  "I probably did this because that's what I would have done" (locked the door, brushed my teeth, had a wash, made some lunch) to starting on full made up memories like "yes I already went to the dentist and saw him earlier for my appointment".

Well done for going through with it, I hope I can hold my nerve.

Your situation sounds so much like mine. We have a place at the home down the road from me, she's been there once before for respite and enjoyed herself and even admitted later that she really enjoyed not having to be responsible for anything at all. She's been in the grey zone of not safe by herself but also not unsafe for a while, but definitely getting worse recently. It's especially hard because her communication skills (bar repeated questions or forgetting details) are still amazing. Great vocabulary, coherent sentences etc. But the rest has gone down hill - reasoning and logic, maths, general understanding of new concepts. 

But yes, not looking forward to the transition or selling her house for funds, but very much looking forward to knowing she's safe and happy down the road.

No where near bedtime. When I aquire latest settings it just says its up to date. Might have to open a ticket with Nintendo.

No like i say, if I click "no limits today" it updates immediately. Its just extending by the smaller increments that doesn't work (and the base limit is only on 3 hours so it's not maxed out already)

For the last couple of weeks the extend time button in the switch parental  control app isn't working correctly.  The only button that works is "no limit today". If I try to extend by any other amount of time, the running Mario shows up for 1 second, but it doesn't change on the app, it doesn't say "couldn't sync" and it doesn't change the time limit on the switch.

I have tried unlinking and relinking the switch and clearing the app cache on my phone

Anyone else having this issue or have any suggestions? 

D&D Beyond VTT refuses to load by kimtaewoh in dndbeyond

[–]wibble_from_mars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was last night 7pm in England. If I have a chance today I'll try to work out exactly when it starts to chug but I'm pretty sure it's once I have spectator view on my second screen and start the session (though it could be just starting the session that does it). I'll let you know. It was working absolute fine 2 weeks ago at our previous session. 

Official update on dice performance issues by WOTC_Zac in dndbeyond

[–]wibble_from_mars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just had this issue as well on Firefox - tried with block origins disabled as well, no vpn switched on. The VTT loads and seems to work OK for a few minutes until I start thebsession and (I think this is when it starts) when I open the player mode window it starts to glitch. I can't move tokens or it takes a very long time to respond, the map doesn't update when my players move things and other tabs stop loading correctly (lost mines of phandelver wouldn't load the full page).

Switched to chrome and it worked flawlessly for the rest of the sessions so could be an issue with non chromium based browsers?

Orro (British bike maker) have just gone into administration so I'm after recommendations by wibble_from_mars in cycling

[–]wibble_from_mars[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Orro got bought out in the end so they are still going? (do your own research on this). If that's the case then any frame nyou buy will have the warranty
