  1. True. One of my friends that I went to school with all my life stole from me a few times, and at least seemed genuinely sorry when I confronted him with it because he'd become an addict and was in-between jobs with a kid. Unfortunately for him I don't have patience for that kind of shit. I'm not a freakin' drug abuse clinic.
  2. An ode to the mod Swimdin nice.
  3. Yeah letting autoplay run on youtube is another bad habit I've had for a while before I started using movie apps on my tv. I stream using a ps4 as well I don't have a smart tv so that's not the problem. I've started getting into Warframe recently and playing regularly wasn't going to be feasable with the any of the plans suddenlink offered becuase there's a sizeable content update daily of course..but I started running over my data cap before that. All I'm saying is streaming movies on top of everything else is the main culprit for me atm. I've done all the other stuff daily at different points and never exceded the original 250 gig monthly data allowance plan I had with suddenlink surprisingly.. though I'd be close enough at the end of a billing cycle to be concerned anyway usually. meh. The bottom line is just that data caps/monthly data allowances are lame as F anyway. I should be getting a dedicated line with at&t also which is another perk. Even though I've never had many issues even at peak traffic hours with suddenlink.
  4. Eh.. It was streaming 1080 P movies to my tv that was what kept pushing through 250-300+G a month according to alll my trackers..
  5. Pssh that rep was trying to laugh it off like att didn't have a cap. He promised me unlimited data, and mentioned his little (probably essentially worthless generic looking application form) promised everything in writing.. I mean if I didn't make him add the price of the at&t interweb in there I wouldn't even have that in writing so I will be in test mode. A terabyte should get me through a month though lol right?
  6. I have the same problem with a lot of long time users. I need to go to sleep honestly because I think I gave myself a big emotional trip last night or something, and I didn't sleep. Plus something's off because I was extra cautious today behind the wheel and I had a pick up try to fly out of a tree enshrouded driveway in a small rural town I was driving in behind the wheel of a bus that made me brake check my instructor, and she was just like.. I saw it too it's fine. I went to the store to buy a beer thinkin' maybe it's time to relax.. and some car completely failed to stop at a stop sign, and made me brake-check again with my truck. Stuff has put me on edge today, and I'm trying to use sarcasm, and passive aggressiveness to balance me back out; move along people. Nothing to see here..
  7. I doubt it'll be anywhere near 300mbps on the upload, but surely they can beat the cap I had with suddenlink...
  8. As an internet provider in your kneck of the woods? I just switched from suddenlink because they cap, and restrict their data usage here. I'm saving $30 a month, adding direct tv satellite, and avoiding an irritating data cap/allowance so I decided to give it a try. This rep said I could expect 300mbps upload.. I'm weary, but I want to test some other providers.
  9. I thought you probably meant caffiene, but I wanted to be sure. I could get a hold of these when I was in Iraq, but honestly I was too scared to end up with nicotine poisoning since I already smoked cigarettes so.. https://taskandpurpose.com/how-a-local-energy-drink-became-an-icon-of-the-iraq-war
  10. Your latte had nicotine in it?
  11. I'm abstaining from weed atm and it seems insomnia has kicked in. No sleepiness. I'm going to try though because I have to drive a lot tomorrow.
  12. My computer is refusing to load it.
  13. Honestly in areas with really frequent thunderstorms lightning strikes can cause deterioration/holes along buried copper piping I've heard. I'm pretty sure you'd have to really try for that extra push a good lightning bolt could give you in the bathroom though.
  14. I mean there's actually way more demanding captchas that have been dreamt up over the years that require you to complete a short section of musical notes in the right key or look at resistors and enter the resistance so whatevs. They help. It's just impossible to weed out every kind of crawler.. bot or AI these days so they're all becoming increasingly ineffective.
  15. No I wont.. Nobody cares. It's been done. A million times...
  16. That check here if you're not a bot captcha is bullshit...I could program a click bot to get past that just by preprogramming the bot WITH MY OWN MOUSE CLICKS As for the image captcha as a human you still have to follow the instructions.. If you just click all the first row of images for example you aren't going to get access to a site, (you shouldn't anyway, I've been denied for that) but whatever I hate that captcha as well, and I've always thought it was bullshit. That's why I mentioned the captcha I hate the most. The original "captcha" because it is designed to be indecipherible to bots...It's usually just as indecipherable for me as well though. Those mouse trackers arent even really "captchas", but technically they are now maybe? That second article says different devs repatented the "captcha" system so I guess they get to call it one? I might read those buzzfeedesque articles a bit more when it's not 3am.
  17. You would need superconductive pipes, and a way more conductive toilet than the traditional porcelain one.
  18. No you have to click the right images or follow the directions to get past the captcha. A bot technically could be programmed to beat any single captcha, but the point is just to give random instructions that humans can actually follow, and preprogrammed bots can't. It's the crazy font/number captchas that really grind my gears.
  19. Yes. The national guard just drills a few weekends a month, and has some longer training exercises in the summer so it should work perfectly with a school bus driving job since the drivers are more or less unemployed while schools out for the summer.
  20. I wouldn't mind doing that right now honestly.. that's my point. I was actually overweight for the national guard when they measured me. Ofcourse the recruiter seems stupid to the whole process, but since I'm "prior service"... he's probably focusing on getting new blood in anyway. Makes me mad a bit because he thought I'd get through inprocessing without having to lose wieght.. but fuck him. Fuck MEPS too because they are making me lose 13 lbs/ Hopefully I'm making progress because I found an mmo I want to spend a bit a of time with and that does usually make it hard for me to want to exercise all the time. At any rate. It's been weird to have a "company" make me take all these physicals, and drug tests, call me in for training a few hours a day, and still leave me unreinbursed for my time. I knew howthe process was, and since I was getting unemployment from a global employer I went for it. Still my unemployment is almsot out of money... I'm not ancient with a savings to reflect it, and the process has been awkward with this company.. At least I will get more experience in IT with my NG job though. I'm sure it will look great on my resume having a job that entails setting up, troubleshooting, and...etc..the governments active coms in an area... I.E. electricity, internet, etc... Now my fat ass probably needs to lose some more wieght after making this post.
  21. Uggh. I'm still not actually working.. I take my drivers test June 21 for my class b to work as a school bus driver.. This shit is insane. They called me in for an interview sometime in May I think.. I got through all their weeding out criteria.. and bullshit classroom training, but they don't pay anything until you get your license and start picking up kids. That shit needs to change. idk. Supposingly I've been getting through the process fast according to them though, and I mean I do want to take my time learning all the bus controls, and how to follow all the laws and policies behind the wheel of one.. egghh.. This post is getting long. Long story short school bus drivers should have a better program where I'm at it's ridiculous. Most of the reason people don't want to do school bus work here is probably because if you don't already have a class b you have to spend two or three months without pay training to get it. I mean no one really wants to be responsible for other peoples little hoodlums either I'm sure, but I'm just tired of not getting paid already.
  22. Something tells me I'm gonna hate that. I think it's the pidgeon. I hate pigeons.
  23. Oh someone pointed out the twist here already.. Fairy/Dark right? I hope.. I forgot. I think he's just fairy/normal. That pokedex entry is boss though. Most of them from the SUN/MOON region are pretty dark though.. There's honestly not very many positive sounding poxedex entries for the entire gen... I think the pokedex entry writer(s) have given up on life at this point honestly.
  24. He's a beast too.. A cute and cuddly murderer..
