Migration of phone network to digital

[David Wade]

Happens all the time. Look at Digital TV. Original ON Digital boxes scrapped, no firmware. My DA Radio is pretty much junk as it won't do DAB+, google support for a host of Nest products...

Switching to VOIP will have no effect whatsoever on scammers ability to spoof caller ID.

I built my own smart central heating controller. No ccloud required. Cloud is for numpties who cant program a computer.

Planned obsolescence, surprisingly invented before Apple.

[Fredxx]

Please do give details.

[Harry Bloomfield Esq]

Yes they do!

[Andrew]

Unless they are in a supermarket or library, where anyone can use them (and they do).

[Andrew]

Not according to a 'spokesman' from the telecom industry when he had his say on the radio (possibly BBC Moneybox) about the benefits of the digital voice switch.

[Andy Burns]

So buy from a different supplier who does?

[Sam Plusnet]

Does anyone here really believe that NP doesn't know this?

He really enjoys winding folk up, and people can't resist the bait he dangles in front of them.

[Tim+]

50:50 chance that it’s a wind up or he’s drifting into senility. For his sake hoping it’s the former.

Bet you misunderstood what he said. If he did say that, he hasnt got a clue.

[The Natural Philosopher]

None of the ones I have ever been in, do.

[The Natural Philosopher]

Yup. That's me!

[The Natural Philosopher]

No, My experience of disabled toilets is that they don't have keys. Not in Waterstones. Not in the hospitals. Not in Waitrose.

[Ian Jackson]

Of course these don't. They are all supervised, and serviced regularly, However, many out in the wide world often do (presumably to stop unnecessary use and abuse by those who can access the other toilets).

[Jim Jackson]

For ***** sake - the guy's an imbecile - why argue?

It's when he's like this he shows that his pronouncements are untrustworthy, on this and soooooo... many things.

[Spike]

Oh, the irony…spoken by a rabid Remoaner…

[The Natural Philosopher]

But no one has contradicted me when I say that all the disabled toilets I have been in do not need keys.

They merely stated that there are *some* that do. So my information is

100% reliable. Despite your desperate need to 'cancel' me.

[SteveW]

You may never have needed a key, but I'd rather have a key and not use it than not have one when I find that it is needed.

[Tim Lamb]

Gentlemen please!

I find many toilets in commercial locations are fitted out to disabled standards.

I can offer you one example in Suffolk where the disabled toilet does require a radius key. However, as suggested, it is part of a much larger block where you can pee free.
