That is strange. Please forward any correspondence when you email me. Did you mention the specific in app purchase to Apple?

Request a refund for apps or content you've bought from Apple – Apple Support (UK) Some purchases from the App Store, iTunes Store, Apple Books or other Apple services may be eligible for a refund. You can use any device with a web browser to request a refund.

Ok use michael@goodtohear.co.uk
I don’t know who you spoke to but I have never heard of Apple getting on the phone about something like this. Did you use the link? support.apple.com/en-gb/118223

My email is easy to find but I don't see anything from you in my inbox.
But to restate: I am unable to process refunds, this is all handled by Apple without any input from me.

A great claim to fame for me was when @hbomberguy.bsky.social liked my stupid ukulele song on Twitter.
But DID YOU KNOW this was OVER-ENGINEERED TO F*CK?

Nice, I’ve been doing this a while too - it’s great to have the flexibility but can be a bit of a technical headache!

I'm not on twitter anymore, but this tweet from 2 years ago is sadly more accurate than ever

Easy to say when they’re all companies you’ve never heard of! (Maybe you have, but I haven’t.) it’s harder when it’s M&S et al. How would they even know I’m boycotting them because of their GB News support?

Infinite Music Machine YouTube video by Michael Forrest

After @tantacrul.bsky.social mentioned me in his video on Aleatoric Music video (6 years ago 😅) I’ve finally resurrected the project that I felt most justified my inclusion! It was an app, now it’s a livestream on YouTube. www.youtube.com/live/-nEegj2...

None of these music player apps seem to have a “make this the last song” feature.

The term "bug" was used in an account by computer pioneer Grace Hopper, who publicized the cause of a malfunction in an early electromechanical computer.[13] A typical version of the story is:

In 1946, when Hopper was released from active duty, she joined the Harvard Faculty at the Computation Laboratory where she continued her work on the Mark II and Mark III. Operators traced an error in the Mark II to a moth trapped in a relay, coining the term bug. This bug was carefully removed and taped to the log book. Stemming from the first bug, today we call errors or glitches in a program a bug.[14]

What an unexpectedly great bit of etymology! #software

After a couple of months living in Edinburgh, London feels like a clenched arsehole.

Proud to have been involved in this project, though in a very minor way. Huge omission in the programme is Phillip Jacobs, who found the tip of the snout which led Steve Etches and his team to locate the rest of the specimen

ChatGPT's "Old White Guy Energy" is really epitomised in the way it never asks a single clarifying question.

It just assumes it knows what you mean, no matter how little context you give it. 😅

We should never underestimate the extent to which the BBC changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage, other far right extremists and the Tufton Street junktanks, while shutting out progressive voices. 🧵
