Meh. I, too, am forced to have Optimum because they have a legally-mandated monopoly on being the cable/internet provider around hereā¦ literally, none of the other providers are able to offer service in this area. I donāt pay for cable TV though, thatās basically another $60/month streaming service to meā¦ they offer less than the real streaming services, too.
That has a nice realistic spin, certainly. On the other hand, I already have politics if I want to watch a bunch of terrible people who have enough money, power and PR to stay looking goodā¦ I do at least have Amazon Prime, though. Iāve been meaning to watch it eventually, maybe now thatāll end up being sometime this year at leastā¦
Hey now, some of us across the southern border are fluent in both! Donāt lump me in with those āImperial is superiorā folk!
All my 3D modeling is in metric and MMās usually.
Diving I use both because I never know where my divers are from. 30M is VERY different from 30FT. Same with BAR vs PSI for air pressure. 200 Bar is a full tank, 200 PSI is 300-500PSI lower than you want to finish your dive with
Regarding cannabis, trying to measure rosin / additives by imperial is also a joke, thats all grams
I am forced because NO other cable company wants to run that much cable thru my town to be able to compete, and Optimum has a lock on their lines. DSL I was too far from a switching station. So I have no choice.
Highly recommend watching The Boys. Youāll laugh at the cynical twist on superherosā¦
Whatever nationality it is itās needless! Whatās funny is if itās your normal then itās just how you do it but if itās not it looks super pretentious, like you stuck a pinky in the air while saying it
Not in general. I just have a bias against superhero stuff so if itās related to it then I need more convincing.
They map that shit out intentionally and agree on regions to screw their customers without lube. Donāt like it? Well then your options are take it or not have internet or cable! I understand how it got here with them paying to build the infrastructure back in the day but weāve updated plenty of shit to reflect the change in times and itās criminal that this hasnāt been addressed.
Shouldnāt native Americans have a legally-mandated monopoly onā¦ well, most of the country, then? Screw them though, they donāt have enough of a lobbying budget. This is the only state Iāve ever lived in where it wasnāt simply taken for granted that any cable company could offer service anywhere, as long as there were lines. Not entirely surprisingly, this is also the worst service Iāve ever had. Iād call and threaten to switch, but itās just useless - theyāll laugh and tell me go ahead, and Iāll end up right back on the phone with them asking to turn my laggy internet back on.
Well, ok, honestly itās probably about average service. I canāt remember what kind of service other companies give though, and I canāt switch anymore to find out. Used to be that I could, and after all the fees and pain-in-the-ass engineer visits to switch such-and-such widget in the wall, Iād realize it was stupid because it was still over the same cable and they all have the same hangups. Now Iām stuck with them.
A bit late but congrats brother OTUG! I would of thought youāve been here forever lol. Glad to have you here a truly valuable asset to OG! Happy OG day @Oldtimerunderground
Up to you. I split mine into 2 journals but they will both have a sign up so I had to split it into separate threads. I suppose itās really a question of is there a reason to do it.
I think if itās a repro or something with signups then itās necessary imo. I started a second for the Landos one. But am just keeping my regular grow adventures on my TSTās thread.
Thatās how I looked at it. If there isg a reason to separate things than so be it. In the end itās really up to the user.
I do notice some people are overzealous and create threads constantly to ask single questions that already have threads for them. It seems some just hate to search for anything.
On the other hand, I already have politics if I want to watch a bunch of terrible people who have enough money, power and PR to stay looking goodā¦ I do at least have Amazon Prime, though. Iāve been meaning to watch it eventually, maybe now thatāll end up being sometime this year at leastā¦
