    We're there every Sunday for dinner and usually at least once more during the week. So it's either yes to that cause he can't get enough of us or we're all dead lol.

    There is one cell tower near my house in the area. I get good enough cell coverage to not have a home phone but the tower is super old and only offers non LTE 4g which has super shitty data rate. They have been negotiating to update it to LTE for years now but the property where the tower is wants more from ATT than they are willing to give in order to update the tower to LTE. If we had LTE coverage I would totally get a static cell site in my house for home internet. I suspect in the next 1-2 years I will get true high speed internet at my home but the wait is agonizing.

    Yeah I know that feel. Tried to break away from Comcast unfortunately ATT (or at least their lines) was the next fastest option and for awhile until I went back I was just tethering my phone because that was sometimes faster lol

    Sometimes when my satellite internet goes down I tether to my phone and it works well enough for normal stuff. I can't stream video or game on that connection though.

    Yeah I never expected to move to an area without good internet but my wife and I wanted our kids to grow up closer to their grandmother. We rent a house on my family property. There are enough other perks that make it worthwhile but yeah living without good internet is definitely one of the hardest things I have done specially as an IT person who frequently has to work from home. Quite inconvenient.

    Define large? Like I've not personally seen things like that outside of being in the woods in unincorporated areas or towns in areas where the largest town in county is like 10k lol. I mean I'm not getting GB internet or great prices and have to deal with Comcast but still have actual broadband

    Oh yeah so they doing Iron man here this weekend I guess. Yeah so all week large parts of downtown and nearby have been blocked off making it hell for anyone who ya know actually works in the busiest part of town. Cmon on people set up a little block of on Friday afternoon or something

    Making plans to go to a restaurant tonight look them up and woot they have happy hour on friday. Unfortunately they take hour a little too literally. Like it's from when they open in the evening for 1.5 hours. Da fuq? Should be at least 3 hours. So I'm going to be there in time but my date can't quite.

    Also our worst customer? ever finally pulled one last fuck you and backed out of the contract they had us make (we usually don't bother) before we serviced a single one of their locations but after they made us jump thru a ton of unnecessary hoops (and at the very first one I told the boss they are looking for an out so let them) and getting us to buy and deliver a around $2k worth of containers. Can't post all details right now but let's just say it's a large bank with the name west in it and the first hoop was trying to get us to sign up to some scam certification that didn't even apply to us to try and get us to assume liability if they had a fraud/privacy breach

    Not sure where to put this, but I was at Hooters tonight and on the main projector was ESPN (pretty sure it was the main channel and not ESPN 8 or something) and they were airing an Overwatch tournament. Slow day for sports?

    Yeah, been seeing a lot of people talking about and being confused. This signing was a huge deal and no one seemed to notice.

    How sad ESPN has become. The fact that they're attempting E-sports to save their station is sad.

    ESPN broadcast poker 10+ hours straight til 8am ET since that's how fucking long it took to finish the three for the WSOP main event.

    I could imagine the alternatives like pro lumberjacking or a cheerleading competition.
