And also... I felt my complaint letter above was a little boring so I asked @google bard to write it for me.. I asked in the prompt to make it funny. I've realised that the AI is much funnier than me, which is a little worrying. Wow though. Wow. #AI

Hey, @Vans - got to say I've been a huge fan of your Atwood's - I like. They generally last me a year. I'm on my third pair (can verify). Bit grumpy that last pair failed as in photo just after about three months. I don't really want to drop another 拢50 on a pair, can you help?

@CanonUKandIE hey guys, gutted I paid money for this printer and it broke after hardly any use! I bought it less than six months ago in Broxbourne Tesco. Stopped pulling paper and now dumped. V disappointed 馃槥.

@tweethue hey guys, I have loved using these bulbs, massive fan (have three and they were pricey back in the day) maybe the serial number can tell you when that day. Alas one of them is rebooting (heat maybe?) ... Any chance of a goodwill replacement!? Thanks.

@balena_io just setup little home dashboard, with your software a pi4 and of course the mighty @home_assistant .... This is a bit of a revelation... Brilliant! Christmas Project a go-go! Work in progress.

deciding which of these boxes is a better to use as a @XigmaNAS home server. I've got a couple of SATA hdds to put in to play around with ZFS etc. lenovo doesn't have a regular PC PSU, takes a laptop charger, is that ok/ good even? @allanjude @jrssnet @JoeRessington

@ThreeUK I've been with you for years paying 拢18 a month, a good deal, was happy. Been a massive fan and told others. Now an annoying letter giving me a choice between several worse things but not framed as such. I could do without the marketing spin. PAC code please, I'm off!
