'High speed' connections are typically measured in megabits per second (Mbps). You could measure them in MBps, but a higher number will look more appealing to potential customers. For example: 30Mbps vs 3.75MB/s.
[QUOTE=st0rmforce;38236742]I don't know how they get away with it really.
I pay for 10mbps.
I get about 1.5 on average[/QUOTE]
I am supposed to receive 30Mbps down, and typically receive 20-25. So I can't really complain too much, Time Warner provides acceptable service in my area.
What pisses me off is their pricing model...they are wayyyy too expensive. Not to mention their customer service tends to be absolute garbage, and they're always offering all of these great discounts to new customers. But of course they make it extremely hard for existing customers to have any sort of a discount. We still call them about twice a year to have any available promotions applied to our account, but it takes forever to actually reach a human being. Then of course half of their customer service reps can barely speak English. That shit really grinds my gears.

Anyway, today my doctors have taken me off IV, told me I no longer need the gauze on my dick, and they're sending me home tommorrow![/QUOTE]
Can you explain this whole situation to me because from I know your dick is bleeding so bad it's coming out of your nose.
I have a nasty cold and it's not letting up, only getting worse.
Come on, I don't want a fucking cold on Halloween. I have plans!!

Why wouldn't you?
Someone has been in my room today while I was at school. There were two things in my printer being copied that aren't mine and there was a clump of long blond hair next to my mouse.

that's
slightly unsettling
It was like, a real clump too not just a few bits in a ball it was like someone combed their hair with the same brush for three years and then pulled it all out.
Ah geez, my blood pressure is to the roof, no one knows whats causing it. No medication, nothing, not even natural. Doctor said it may be a bad internal infection. What doesn't want me dead now.
But I shouldn't be mad about this, after seeing what others are going through, this looks like a scrape in the park.
Bad reviews on products.
I'm hopefully building a new PC this Christmas that can utterly destroy anything that's thrown at it but looking for parts is hard.
I see alot of five star reviews on one product but then there's those 1-2 star reviews saying that a PSU fried their motherboard or the motherboard died in a few days.
[QUOTE=Zorlok;38241027]Just ignore most of those user reviews on websites such as Newegg. A lot of those people have no idea what they're doing and end up damaging something...in which case they'll blame the manufacturer. I saw your thread for the PC you have in mind, and you can't go wrong with a SeaSonic power supply. They're one of the top tier PSU manufacturers.
The rest of your build is pretty solid as well, and the parts are all from reliable manufacturers. Don't forget that Newegg has a nice RMA policy, and you'll have the manufacturers' warranties as well.[/QUOTE]
Thanks.

Also - ASRock's recent motherboards are quite excellent. I have a Z68 Extreme 3 Gen 3 board, and it has been bulletproof so far...I've been using it since January with my i5-2500K (@4.5GHz).

I fucking hate shill bidders on eBay...they're a massive pain in the ass.
I just found out our Beach house in NY is probably gonna get fucked over by Sandy, god dammit.
When the damn bus is empty and the one person who gets on sits right fucking beside me.
He stinks like shit too, I'm clenching my asscheeks the whole journey now.

If it fried their motherboard it's because it was a faulty PSU, if it does you can just send both in and get a new one.

Or they had no idea what they were doing.
How the new Pokedex on the 3DS (the one that has EVERY Pokemon in glorious 3D, the one we THOUGHT was going to be a FREE update to the already FREE Pokedex on 3DS) is going to be $15 in the 3DS eShop.
Suck my dick Nintendo, that's bullshit and you know it.

Well that's basically what my post stated.
God damn weather forecasters...they always love to play these storms up.
I'm really wishing girls didn't go for scumbag pieces of shit that don't care for them.
It makes me sick that the social norms are reversed. Why do people take people that don't give a shit about them? I have been talking to this girl for weeks that I really like. We're both friends, and I decided to be really nice to her. I'd talk to her almost every day about school, her life, my life, etc. She was beautiful and I told her she was and attempted to further our friendship since I had feelings for her. And all I find out a few days later is that she likes an asshole who just cares about tits and motocross and monster energy drinks. It's not only that as well. Her friends think I'm just a fucking loser because I don't play sports and shit like some athlete.
This has happened to me so many times, I just want to stop trying really.

That's one of my biggest fears though about building a PC, i'm getting OEM Windows and i don't want my motherboard to die a few days after i set it up.
Sure i could send it back, but then my copy of Windows would be rendered useless.
On topic: i hate benchmark videos that have my specs and are in another language.

It's pretty uncommon to actually receive parts that are faulty. You'll most likely have absolutely nothing to worry about. Even if something happens, you can just give MS a call if you experience any trouble. They can reactivate your copy of Windows if you're unable to. In most cases they aren't going to give you any shit about it...the last time I had to do that it was just an automated process that took all of 3 minutes. So don't worry about any of that.

When people want to persecute me for eating food in the house
Fuck, it's been bought, what'd you want to do with the food? It's meant to be eaten, even if it's a day after buying it. Food is required daily.

Woah thisispain, you're on the prowl
Like that came out of nowhere
Jesus Christ I'm going to make a list of the three actual, physical chores I hate the most:
1. Doing dishes
2. Doing shitloads and shitloads of paperwork (Forms, financials, etc)
3. Taking out the trash
When some random guy criticizes me for posting something on Facebook about Sandy.
He went on about how everything in the U.S media is blown out of proportion and that it's only made a big deal because it happened in USA.
So I was walking down the stairs and randomly end up slipping and hitting my back numerous times.

God I need to go to the ER, but the nearest one is 30 minutes away, and I can't drive. Everything is shaking, I can't control my eyes, I can't even type well cause of how dizzy I am.

I'm trying, if it has to come to using 911, I will. This has been happening to me a lot now.
[editline]30th October 2012[/editline]
it only happens when I stand up, and when I sit down everything just feels like it's slowing down. doctor told me today my blood pressure was messed up, and was gonna get me professional help tomorrow. I either wait till tomorrow or go to the ER. I don't know what to pick.
It would be best to dial them or someone up before it gets any worse
Do whatever it takes ASAP, brother. Do you have any clue as to what you're experiencing? Sounds very serious.

Well, I have an infection, they don't know where, they don't know how I got it. He suggested admitting me against my will but insurance denied me for some bs reason. So he is gonna try something tomorrow.
I keep seeing white faded dots, my body can't support me, and it feels as if all my muscles are shutting down. I hope this isn't as bad as it sounds.
