@birchenall @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK Have you got one mate? Or have you gone MacBook?

@MattyZ321 @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK Clearly something has gone wrong. They can’t sell something that has been used and refurbished as new. No wonder it stopped working. I would surely think twice about buying a Surface Laptop if that’s the sort of stuff they’re doing.

Bought a “brand new” Microsoft Surface direct from the store. Turns out it had superglued screws, water damage, and now it’s dead. Microsoft won’t reply. Anyone else had problems like this? @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK #Surface #ConsumerRights #MicrosoftFail

@birchenall @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK Not yet - they’ve basically replied once saying ‘it’s out of warranty, you’re on your own’ and haven’t responded since. I know it’s out of warranty but selling me a refurbed laptop as ‘new’ is a breach of contract!

@MattyZ321 @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK That’s so bad! Have they responded to you? What are they doing about it?

@birchenall @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK Directly from the Microsoft Shop. Have you ever had something similar? They’re usually pretty good.

@MattyZ321 @MicrosoftHelps @WhichUK That's outrageous! Did you buy it direct from Microsoft or from a highstreet shop?

@johnhurra Sure thing - thank you

In May, along with my brother and a group of friends, I will be driving a convoy of ambulances full of medical equipment to Western Ukraine to continue to support the people suffering from the conflict. gofund.me/4694faae

@MickWest Thank you for the helpful analysis rather than knee-jerk conspiracy theories and politicising.

Preliminary analysis of the crash of flight 5342 today suggests a possible factor might have been the helicopter pilot accidentally looking at AAL3130, a larger plane landing behind 5342, on a different approach but visually close and possibly brighter than the closer, smaller 5342.

"This is my wife taking a nap. In an hour she will wake up, put on her scrubs and get ready for work. The tools and items she needs to perform her job will be gathered and checked meticulously - her hair and makeup will be done quickly. She will complain that she looks awful. I will disagree, emphatically, and get her a cup of coffee. She will sit on the couch with her legs crossed under her and try to drink it while happily playing with the toddler that's crawling all over her. She will occasionally stare off blankly as we talk; silently steeling herself for the coming shift. She thinks I don't notice. She will kiss the baby, she will kiss me and she will leave to go take care of people that are having the worst day of their entire lives: Car wrecks, gunshot wounds, explosions, burns and breaks - professionals, poor, pastors, addicts and prostitutes - mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and families - it doesn't matter who you are or what happened to you. She will take care of you. She will come home 14 hours later and remove shoes that have walked through blood, bile, tears and fire from aching feet and leave them outside. Sometimes she will not want to talk about it. Sometimes she can't wait to talk about it. Sometimes she will laugh until she cries and sometimes she will just cry - but regardless of those sometimes she will be on time for her next shift. My wife is a nurse. My wife is a hero."

@danny_robins Though potentially useful information - Luibeilt was clearly inhabited by a family called ‘Eliot’. This was in a bothy 5km to the East. Read the last paragraph.

You are brave Matty! Let us know how you get on!!

@danny_robins Fabulous walk and really atmospheric place, but sad to report no poltergeist activity. Biggest excitement was crashing over a guy rope in the night…

@danny_robins #luibeilt #uncanny #uncannycommunity Heading to Luibeilt for an overnight camp. Hoping for a story for a future podcast…. @pahowden @birchenall

@danny_robins #uncanny #uncannycommunity #luibeilt Heading North for a camping trip and hoping not to become guests on a future podcast! We’ve left our ice-axes at home…

@Look_its_Rhonda @a_rouquin Rhonda - my brother and two friends are on our way to Scotland now - walking to Luibeilt to camp overnight tomorrow :)

@a_rouquin Did you camp or did you just check it out?

I need someone in Scotland to let me live vicariously through them. Here’s what you do: go camp by the ruins of Luibeilt bothy and tell me if any weird stuff happens. I just listened to a podcast about it. 👻 😁

@RiskSeeKing @elerianm @markets @economics Not how I’d interpret it. This is due to 2yr weakness, not 10y strength, so the market saying the Fed will have to go higher for longer to stem inflation, but the probability of late 2023 cuts is fairly unchanged.

@elerianm @markets @economics The explanation: The market reaction to Powell's remarks today intensified the yield curve inversion, with the 2s-10s breaking the negative 100 basis point. It means that the inversion has become more pronounced,& investors are increasingly worried about a potential recession.⁉️

Among the notable market reactions to Fed Chair Powell’s remarks today: An intensification of the US yield curve inversion with the 2s-10s breaking the negative 100 basis point level. #economy #markets #bonds #centralbanks #fed #federalreserve #econtwitter @markets @economics

@Rusty_Outside @Look_its_Rhonda So what happened!!??

@O2 this is two days in a row your store on Walworth Road has been ‘closed for lunch’ in the middle of the afternoon. Both times waited half an hour before giving up.

@themacrotourist Great - thanks!

@themacrotourist Thank you Kev - I can access the ticker in Bloomberg - how do I see the holdings….? <MEMB> doesn’t bring anything up

Fuck me, he’s nailed it. Every word. 👇

@rawlimark How have you possibly made this moment about you?
