@CollingwoodFC Where did the torpedo go? Always the best kick. The only one I'm prepared to do. :-)

@newschambers And in breaking news, health experts have warned that injecting Donald Trump's words into your ears is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs.

Having lots of trouble with a client's @netregistry hosting, and absolutely shocked that my support ticket has gone unanswered for a week now. Case no 03476413. This is ridiculous, and has left me, the site owners and their customers totally in the shit.

@dontattempt It’s not about the spelling; it’s about the sound. All of the counterexamples above have vowel sounds in them, including tsk (tisk).

@gsuite OK, thanks for that! That got me there, although the Gmail step didn't look like a clickable link. I grimace when I have to dig into Google settings, as the whole system is so dense and confusing. Possibly trying to be too many things to too many users. 😟

@pageaffairs Hi Ralph, sorry to read about that. Those settings can be found in admin.google.com. Then click on 'Apps > G Suite > Gmail >User settings'. If you get an error, feel free to DM us more details and we'll gladly assist you. -BI

@gsuite Your email about Gmail Confidential Mode is totally baffling. I want to turn it off, but I can't find "Apps > G Suite > Settings for Gmail > User settings". Really, you can do a lot better than this. :-(

@CodePen That’s cool, but it’s so much quicker in an app likr MacDown. (I do this lots every day.)

Any idea about this, @ABCTV ? Started getting this error a few days ago on Samsung TV. Have tried everything—reinstalling, restarting modem, turning TV off at wall, etc. Not sure what else to do. 😞

@gingerandhoney The crowning glory is at the end, when it says HOOKER. (Ah, right … that's what I thought.)

@DropboxSupport Oh wow, I really should have thought of that first. 😔 Thanks for your feedback. Indeed, reinstalling the app fixed the problem. Apps seem to update so often I didn't think this was necessary, but I know better now. 😌
English

@pageaffairs Hi Ralph - this is very unexpected behavior! Would you mind reinstalling the app, to see if this fixes the issue? You can find steps here: help.dropbox.com/mobile/reinsta…. If the issue persists, just DM us your account email address and we can reach out to you there. Thanks! twitter.com/messages/compo…

@TheShovel Remember, sacredness has its limits. It has to be convenient. You can't expect Aussies to sacrifice a day off because it falls on a weekend, no matter how "sacred".

@IntegoSecurity It really annoys me that I can never work out which version of your software I'm using. The About info should make it clear whether it's X8, X9 or whatever.

@troyhunt Visited mum recently. She was busy with a "Telstra" guy on the phone who was helping to fix her computer. I tried to shut it down, but he already had remote access and stopped the shutdown process. I had to kill the power, then restored OS from an earlier backup. Ugh.
English

Call comes in:
“Hi this is Telstra, we need to verify your identity”
“Sure, can you verify your identity first?”
“Uh, we’re Telstra”
“Ah, but that’s not how this is going to work, can you verify my account information”
“But we need to verify you first!”
Yeah, nah, bye!

Why does @medium make it so difficult to read comments? Very frustrating. Definitely an area for improvement, guys.
