@edfenergy.com Switched to EDF on 29 Sept for FreePhase. Three weeks later I’m still on Standard Variable. The app has no box to enter a meter reading, the website won’t take one either, and Energy Hub reports a meter comms issue while the app says all good. Complaint raised.

✨ Building in public! ✨ 🚀 Introducing the early stages of my new web app (peek in the image). The goal? A simple, sleek, weekly planning tool that works across devices. 🌐 #BuildInPublic #Productivity #WebApp #WeeklyPlanner #HabitTracker

📱 Features so far: - Weekly Priorities/Inbox: Brain-dump your week's focus. - Habit Tracker: Check off habits daily. - Multi-device sync: Everything updates instantly, whether you're on your iPad, desktop, or phone.

💡 Designed for those who love having a quick reference to their weekly plan, especially on an iPad sitting on your desk. 🛠️ So much more to build, but this is a solid start! Still brainstorming a name and would love ideas from the community. What features would you love in your weekly planner? 👇

Going to commit to 10k steps a day in December (yes I know it’s an arbitrary number, no I don’t care 🤷‍♂️). Any dev or techie types using a walking pad for while they work? What triggers have you put in place to help drive you? 🚶 First step (ha), is getting the walking pad out the garage… 🕵️

Anybody else face issues with @bsky.app when using UniFi equipment? I think it’s either through AdBlocking or Content Filtering (Family). 🔥 I’ve not looked into this yet - just putting it out there incase anybody else has taken a look already! 🧐 #unifi #bluesky #networking

8yo, “Dad, can we have blueberries in the spaghetti bolognaise?” Me, “Sure I don’t see why not?” I don’t think I’ll ever stop them from experimenting and enjoying food, especially when it comes to fruits and vegetables. 🫐 I didn’t try it, I was assured by the 4yo it was good. 🤷‍♂️🤤

Did this today and it’s really simple to do. As easy as setting a TXT record. Check out the guide or ask if you hit any issues! 💙
