@Starlink @SpaceX and @elonmusk please could you explain how one can turn off the internet because a government asked you to and support free speech without contradicting yourselves?

SpaceX and @TMobile have been given emergency special temporary authority by the @FCC to enable @Starlink satellites with direct-to-cell capability to provide coverage for cell phones in the affected areas of Hurricane Helene. The satellites have already been enabled and started broadcasting emergency alerts to cell phones on all networks in North Carolina. In addition, we may test basic texting (SMS) capabilities for most cell phones on the T-Mobile network in North Carolina. SpaceX’s direct-to-cell constellation has not been fully deployed, so all services will be delivered on a best-effort basis.

Hi @RevolutApp, we are now on day 3 of waiting for my salary to arrive. Seeing as it was sent from Revolut Business to Revolut personal I was expecting the "instant" payment not the disappearing payment. Additionally 24/7 support includes weekends if you had forgotten.

Replying to @Makro_SA
@Makro_SA I'm having a terrific experience with your call centre so maybe this will be better. My package was scheduled for delivery on Saturday. Then it just didn't arrive so I called on Sunday and confirmed the only day I could take off of Wednesday. Simple process,

So now the recommendation is to take another day off work and wait at home for a package that will likely not be delivered that day either. Two of your call attendants actually tried to help and yet were totally unable to offer any help due to their colleague inaptitude

The rest of the @Makro_SA team seem determined to either pretend they dont exist or just act as if I am inconveniencing them by giving them a job to do. Simple answer is to just not give anyone at Makro any more business it seems.

A pretty amazing example of how AI tools have actually become simple to use for amazing results!

Does anyone know how to get @elonmusk and @Twitter to believe we are a real company making real electric vehicles? I promise we aren't going to take over the @tesla cybertruck market in the US... for now @thulasolutions #blocked #EVs #ecotourism

Very impressed and thankful to all the civil servants at @hmtreasury who've without doubt worked through the night to ensure a deal was able to be done with @HSBC_UK to tackle all things SVB. Huge negative second order consequences averted for UK tech🎉
