Got a small #DIY roofing project going.
Went to two steel suppliers websites.
(They're both shut today.)The Products List pdfs are gone.
Replaced by #AIGenerated fairyfloss about each product category.LOL.
Trumpists are flooding the political zone with shit while AI is flooding the world-wide-web with shit.

CW: Seafood
Had been enjoying frozen whiting fillets for a few months.
Little smell, fine taste, fine texture.
Then I got this bag.
Strong smell out of the bag, slimey texture, unpleasant taste.They're much bigger fillets and have much more colour on the cut side than previous bags.
Basically catfood. But I don't have a cat. Neighbours do though.

CW: A consumer swears about Tile
#TileApp : Been using this and their Tile hardware to help in finding lost and hidden items for a blind forgetful #ElderlyRelative.
The bastards at Tile have taken to putting a damned advert at the top of their Android app open page.
Thereby making it impossible for the elderly person to use the app.
Greed, ignorance, don't-give-a-fuck, whatever.
A shit company, a shit product, a shit UX.

#TileApp is showing me the location of other peoples' Tiles with the same name that are over 100 miles away.
Seems possible that my Tiles are being shown to others unknown to me.
Yuk.

#AgingInPlace is difficult.
#ElderlyRelative's #TileApp reports her credit card is astray in a restaurant some distance from home.Helpers keep getting timed out on website as they try to get a stop put on the credit card.
Phone call to #ANZ #Bank fails as the call centre worker's accent and low volume of speech makes communication with ElderlyRelative ineffective.#FailureToMakeReasonableAdjustment

#ElderlyRelative is listening to #AudioBook #TheHouseOfDoors by #TanTwanEng.
Hmmm.
Why would the reader/performer of the prologue say "Droenfontein".
Isn't it #Doornfontein?So now I've got ongoing doubts about the performer's faithfulness to the book and the accuracy of any emphasis they make in their speech.
Don't know how much audiobook performers get paid. Maybe it isn't enough to get correct pronounciation happening for unfamilar words?
And where is their editor?

Using the #1MinuteCriteria for websites to provide simple, non-sensitive information.
It took less than one minute to reach for the #WhitePages or #YellowPages and find the street address of a business or bank branch.
Why am I going to waste any more that 1 minute of my time fooling about with some cryptic and puerile website trying to get basic info?
I #JustPhoneThem after that.

Any Audible repairers here?
Went to Google's "please spy on me" #Playstore.
And saw that #Audible had failed to update.
Tried reloading update.
But now only have not-functioning "Open", "Unfortunately Audible has stopped" or "Uninstall" buttons in Playstore.I use this app to assist a blind elderly person. But doesn't look like that'll be happening again.
