Seriously @AmazonUK ? You've sent me two damaged books as brand new but when I go to replace it again, you refuse offering only a refund but you still have stock, just £15 more expensive, an increase of over 41%!! I'm pretty sure Trading Standards would have some thoughts on this
How do they expect us to ever trust them again? This reversion three years later is awkward, but it most be noted too that they kickstarted the shift to closed source licensing that has infected most of the “our OSS is our product” businesses. elastic.co/blog/elasticsearc… (1/2)
Loving the new @DOOM + DOOM II! Achieved 6 achievements in the first level, 16 by the time I finished. The IDKFA soundtrack rocks, but the fist and chainsaw achievements aren't registering.
Seriously @AmazonUK quitting #AmazonPrime is worse than a bad break up! After cancelling you've nagged me on every screen, and now that it's over, you're offering me Prime on every screen. You're not convincing me to return, you're convincing me I need to shop elsewhere.

This is the sonic tonic I didn't know I needed. Every single one of my favourite living guitarists, and the late Jeff Beck, are on here and that's barely the start of the ensemble. @MarkKnopfler, this is simply beautiful and it's for a great cause too!
Probably like every #Zelda fan out there, #ZeldaTearsOfTheKingdom was my most played game on #NintendoSwitch2023. Plenty of love for @idSoftware and @NightdiveStudio studios with #Quake and #QuakeII taking second and third place. #DOOMII was fourth and #DOOM seventh.
DOOM has been a major part of my life since I first played the shareware version in '94. I playthrough the games regularly and find it an especially great way to release stress when I've had a bad day. It's also the game that completely changed how I played games. (1/4) #DOOM30
I felt a sense of accomplishment when I cleared a level, especially if it was also with 100% kills, items & secrets. Gradually I worked my way up to Ultra-Violence. I can still manage 100% and under par on E3E1 on Ultra-Violence. (3/4) #DOOM30
Ever since that experience, I have never used a cheat code in any game. There have been many games that have absorbed me, made me jump and sped the passage of time, but no single game since has ever had such an effect. (4/4) #DOOM30
Seriously @AmazonUK, get your act together! I've bought a lot of books from you for over 20 years but this last year I have had so many damaged books. Twice now with the same pricey book, I'll pay more to a dedicated book seller with the expectation that it'll be sent with care.
