Speaker 1 (00:00):
So I actually did blame Hinksy for this.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
This morning, Marmy, the Bureau of Meteorology, they revamped their website,
the Bomb. Yeah, and they're getting complaints because it's completely changed.
And usually I come in here and I can read IPS,
which is forecast and Laidley's and lowoods and gatins and
Bernies and boat deser you know, it's all.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
I can read the whole lot.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
But now they've put it into different sections and they've
got little maps where you have to click on to
find out what the temperature in Laidley is or Booner.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
So it's me because you were doing it. And then
obviously how many times did it take me to read it? Yes,
it did actually, And then I was sending off school
weather and I said to you, have they changed this website.
I can't see what's going on. I can't read it,
and then you were trying to anyway. So the update,
which went live yesterday has left users, including US divided,
with more than five hundred comments flooding the Bomb's Facebook

(00:51):
page within hours of its launch. Announcing the redesign, the
Bureau wrote that it aimed to create a clear and
more accessible and secure webs that's not experience.

Speaker 4 (01:00):
I'm not saying it is.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
No.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
I didn't enjoy it.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
And I really dislike when you're using something and then
they change it like this and you go, oh, but
I had everything I needed there and I knew what.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
I was doing with that.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
You become used to.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
It, and you've changed it on me with no warning.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
And I'm not a fan.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Why don't they just change things subtly, one thing at
a time, so you just, oh, this is a new feature,
not the whole page.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Yeah. I actually found this very difficult to navigate. And
as you said, you're right, like the way it was
before we could see what Ipswich's temperatures were to womber
all those other areas.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
Now I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
Yes, it's very difficult, well difficult if you're looking at
it in a glance, and most people if they're looking
at that or weather warnings or anything, you know, especially
people who get up every morning and they want to
see the weather campo on their laptop. My dad does it.
He'll tell me if there's rain forecast or whatever. Now
you've got a twenty minute navigation process before you can
find out whether we've got a storm today.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Or not, Well, this is it.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
There's a pole on the Curry Mail website saying that
eighty nine percent of the people polled on the other
old site packages. Sometimes these places give you options to
go back to the original, but not this.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
No, it's done. You have to try and figure it out.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Critics have slammed the update. No, I'm a critic. I'm
slamming it.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
I know it's not that I'm navigating the sense that
you can ipswitch is seventeen degrees or eighteen degrees.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
But if you want to find out other places and
not in.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
Front of you, it's not in front of you it
used to be anyway. Loads of people have these issues money.
Erica is in Granchester. Have you any technology that's upgraded,
updated or just changed the look?

Speaker 1 (02:36):
What's what's your story, Erica?

Speaker 5 (02:39):
I came into work on Monday and my webcam pages
moves my mute button from the foot of middle to
the left side.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
What's that?

Speaker 3 (02:50):
And Erica, when you're there myself, Yes, then you're trying
to mute yourself and you can't find it, and you're
so used to going to that area to do it.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
What's it? What's the purpose of that?

Speaker 1 (03:01):
I couldn't tell what the mute button was doing.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
I remember because you were talking and your lecturer said, Ball,
you are on mute exactly.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
All JD's on the line. What's your story?

Speaker 5 (03:16):
Oh geez, where do I start? The Gmail and the
Microsoft email and the Facebook and just going into all
of them, they're all different all the time, just something
going on, even the little likes, and you know, they
change it. And I think I needed a couple of
other things there the other day, and not Chrome in Google, Microsoft,

(03:38):
with your emails and stuff. I don't know. I can't
keep up to it. I'm a young woman, of course,
you know, and I'm struggling. So yeah, I don't know
how the kids are going to do it, but anyway.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
I do. I don't go to my kids and I'll say, look,
what's happened here? Help me with this, and they laugh
at me. They go, you can run a radio desk,
but you can't work your fine. That's true, kids, That's
exactly true. That's why you're here to help me. I
can't turn the TV on if I'm trying to connect.
I've got this new TV system and it's still not
working Jode, because I've got no idea what I'm doing.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
Because it does things and I'm like, what am I pressing?

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Now?

Speaker 2 (04:13):
Says No, Like I try and get into Facebook on
the morning, I'm going to put in my codes, my passwords.
It's got to send me a thing from WhatsApp, so
I have to put in there. Firms, Do I trust
this device?

Speaker 3 (04:24):
No?

Speaker 1 (04:26):
You just give up Trina. What's changed?

Speaker 5 (04:32):
Oh? I must say I agree with Jodie on Microsoft
three six five and things like that.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
For me, it's getting in my car after my husband's
been driving and he plays with my seat.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Oh see, that's enough to stuff your day as well.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
I'm quite a bit shorter than him, so you know,
when I get in, I.

Speaker 5 (04:49):
Can't see over the bonnet of my poor little drive.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
Five minutes of readjusting yourself before you can even take off. Yeah,
it doesn't matter anything that's changed. When you're in a
zone and.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
It just throws you, you're like, oh, for for the sake,
I've got time for this.

Speaker 5 (05:03):

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
