Okay, I’ve dried off, but where do you want me to go?

“it’s like watersports, but with myself. hello?”

fyi TF got acquired by Verizon a few years ago, and thus is now a wholly-owned subsidiary, like Visible and Total Wireless

I’ve been on and off tello for like 10 years now, currently they hold my second line, and they are good… assuming you don’t need cs beyond ‘turn it off and back on’, and the towers you frequent aren’t overloaded. If I try and use my data on the tello sim at any time except in the dead of night (1a-4a), everything is timing out. This local tower is way oversubscribed.

Also, their unlimited isn’t true unlimited, as are all mvnos. After… 50gb (surprising, they doubled it in the last few months apparently) it’s like 64kb/s. Which is quite a lot of data, and technically it’s not a hard cap so it’s not outright lying, but it’s not really unlimited. I’ve always hated this ‘well technically’ bullshit, so I call it out every time I see it, for the people who don’t know.

My condolences

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

They are releasing more than just security updates, too. I’ve got two machines in the program and, while small, I have seen UI changes a couple times since ESU started. They aren’t useful or anything, but they definitely aren’t “security” updates.

Brian O’Conner, is that you?

This drove me mad growing up.

Encyclopedia (classroom copy, dated 1983): rarely updated or vetted by outside sources, perfect, basically the second word of god

Online encyclopedia: heresy and lies, you can’t trust it, do your own research

Me: “this seems fucking moronic”

I got around this rule in school by just using the sources that Wikipedia pages used, and got full marks for it, even though I did the exact thing that they said can’t be trusted. But the fact that if you publish an encyclopedia, it’s gospel, but if you print it out, it’s trash, just enrages me.

Those engineers demanded a 50% pay increase, right? Right?

I know if I got told to fuck off and then they come around begging for my help, you know I’m going to make sure they remember their mistake.

AI Cartel: we will buy all your stock

Memory Cartel: yaaaay!

MC: but now nobody is building computers, hurting our storage business :(

AC: we gotchu fam, we will just make our systems outrageously system demanding, killing components and driving sales

MC: yaaaaaaaay

The fact that ‘meeting that should have been an email’ and ‘5am’ would make me way more pissed at the job than the shitty software. Unless I’m on the clock or getting paid overtime, that meeting can suck my balls. 110%, do not pass go, do not collect $200. Not if the building is on fire, not that the CEO perished in a freak accident, nothing. That is absolute horseshit and they can brief me when I am on the clock next. Or, you know, they can email me. Like they should have initially.
