Nah man, Vengeance C70 where it's at.

At first you won't notice many problems as when you get a new internet connection they give you the main line, good shit.

Then...once the ISP realises that you might actually use the advertised speeds, they downgrade your connection over time to ween you off.

Not sure which will go first, but streaming takes up more bandwidth I believe, so Netflix might get throttled first, but eventually they'll just give you total downtime periods if nobody gets the message to go outside and stop using the internet you paid for.

Source: My home internet and Uni accommodation internet. Both start great with quick speeds...both now total shite if more than 1 person uses Google.

Are you still there?

Sort of, but not barely as much as then. This place replaced it.

Are you happy with the way this place turned out?

By and large, yes.

Anything besides the nazis that you're unhappy about?

Well, I liked having a good read 'n' laugh at Anarchy when it came around, and the odd dramathon that pops up gets a bit tedious.

I guess people aren't as much into TF2 and Futurama as I'd hoped out in the real world...


Also, only one of my friends likes this one below. Everyone else has just given me quizzical looks like I'm mad.

Nah. I'm too boring to be stalked. Once they'd figure out where I lived, they wouldn't really have to move and I could wave at them from my window.

Maybe they can do us a favour and eat some SJW's.

As long as there are ANY differences between people there will be hatred.

Pretty much this. If they're different to them, they are wary. The next logical step is irrational fear, then hatred of them because of the difference.

We might get to a stage where public acts of racism are unheard of because of the majority's disapproval of it, keeping it only to their minds.

It's ridiculous that we're built that way, right? An old self-defence mechanism that no longer has purpose and now is just a hindrance to society as a whole.

Because nationalistic/patriotic selfishness.

They simply care more because it was an attack on them, because it was them rather than someone else.

That said, US isn't really alone on this, but because is the major power in the West, everyone else generally is inclined to agree it's the worst just for y'know, allyship and that sorta thing.

I watched it recently, and just didn't get it.

It may have been great at the time of it's release (I quite liked the trippy bit, though no idea what is going on there), but it was an almost painfully slow film to watch, and then once he reached Jupiter...well I have no fucking clue where the story went, seemed like an acid bender or something.

It helps to have a background in science

In what part?

I'm tolerant, but seeing as I've never met, seen or experienced one I dunno.

Frankly they are at the limit of my acceptance of things "beyond the norm", and are entering the realms of "jesus wtf is wrong here"

Revision for a Stats test on Tuesday.

Yaaay...

What level?
GCSE, A level, etc?

OT: Revising for exams, and going to watch avengers.

I'm guessing 1st year in college.

Yep. Didn't know for an Earth Science course you needed to learn statistics specifically...

Ireland, 1840.

Interesting to see the place with more of a population than now. Oh and you know the whole British rule thing.

Ultimately a cruel act, and barely justfiable.

The only good I see from it is that we truly realised their power, and haven't used them in war since.

Oh dear.

This could go either way, it could pull people towards Steam making it more of a monopoly, but on mods as well as games and shutting down 3rd party sites like Nexus or NMA.

Or... it could push people away from it, and revive these places that have been slowly in decline as games lose popularity over time (see mods for Fallout.)

Although people are having gripes with Valve for the 75% "tax" on this, I'm not going to call out greediness until I know a bit more facts. It could be that in this case, Bethesda has levied a high charge on Valve so that modders can make profit off of originally the devs' work. Another scenario is that the cut is because the fact the modding content isn't truly the owners' content in regards to the developers, and so it limits how much profit they could make, though this put's Valve in a more money-grabbing light.
