I could switch from Verizon unlimited LTE to Comcrap cable and upgrade from 20-40 Mbps down to 150 Mbps down, but downgrade from 15-20 Mbps up to 10 Mbps up (probably closer to 5 Mbps up in most conditions)
think I'll keep LTE lol

@qasdfdsaq How much did it cost?
 
With state taxes here my unlimited LTE with VZW is almost 150 bucks/mo but if you take out the taxes its only 110
With my unlimited data plan its really not unlimited LTE but unlimited 3g/4g/LTE/5g/6g/7g/etc/100g... I still remember when I only had a 3g phone paid 700 bucks for the 4g phone to keep my existing plan. When I saw the 4g popup, it was a huge woah face.
 
6:26 PM
@Dave yep, I remember that, but I've paid full retail for like 5 4g phones now

O_O
I just found an excerpt (unquoted/unsourced) from one of my SU answers on reddit. Yay?
Heh. If anyone's looking for a cheap laugh, maps.geotastic.org/rude
 
@Bob Link?
 
Bob
@CanadianLuke reddit.com/r/technology/comments/3rbjpg/… -- that's actually from an answer I'm not entirely happy with, and kinda want to delete :\
 
@Bob Report it? What link is your answer on SU?
 
Bob
@CanadianLuke I wouldn't bother.
Not really fussed about it. Just found it interesting.
 
6:37 PM
I'd feel flattered, personally, but I'd at least expect attribution
 
@Bob Between £30 and £70 per metre?
No wait, £3-7 per metre?
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq ouch.
@qasdfdsaq Sounds a bit better :P
 
Initial estimates were "most" people would be paying about £500-£1500
It ended up being about double that on average
 
Bob
@qasdfdsaq I could be anywhere from 100m to 500m from the nearest node.

WTF? Activision Blizzard to acquire King Digital Entertainment, creators of Candy Crush for $8.8b...
 
8:10 PM
With the purchase of King, Activision gains an in-house team of proven mobile veterans who can not only expand their own hit games, but help the company exploit its own franchises." ... Until they leave next month for new jobs
 
@Dave I dunno. I imagine it's a pretty good place to work. They are 96th on the Fortune.com top 100 places to work.
 
Kind of brings back memories of the tme when JD Power bought the old company that I worked for. Wonder how those boogers I worked with are doing ;)

Yeah, sounds like him
 
Microsoft cancel 'unlimited' Onedrive space after users actually use it like it's unlimited. lol
 
THAT WORD, IT DOES NOT MEAN WHAT YOU THINK IT MEANS.
 
Some guy got 75TB uploaded to it apparently.
 
if in the new windows systems, hibernation stores only the "used" ram stuff, not the whole empty spaces, wouldnt superfetch increase the entry and return from hibernation states? superuser.com/questions/995646/is-superfetch-good i was thinking of answering this with all the plusses and minusus and how it would be a users choice (as long as it it so easily turn on-off).
when going into hibernation, disk flushes (for write cache) would happen prior, but what about file cache (system cache) Is it cleared?
 
11:57 PM
@JourneymanGeek One very long toilet chain ;)
 
I have just been restarted! This happens daily automatically, or when my owner restarts me. Ready for commands.
 
reaches forever. For when you need to flush a toilet from the next state....
are toilet chains still a thing?
