Well, that's nice. I'm fucked then. Comcast doesn't recognize my address and AT&T says it has "no slots available" in my area. I can pick up weak signals from someone's unprotected network and I guess that's it for at home internet for me. Lovely.
Mal: I call you back? Wash: No, Mal. You didn't. Zoe: I take full responsibility, cap.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

WTF? For regular phone service, or for DSL?

I was only looking for DSL, but when I pressed them on that they said either. WTF is right.

I'm pretty sure they're required by law to give you regular telephone service.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, for 911 if nothing else.

Found a different number and am hopeful that the agent I'm talking to now isn't a fucking moron like the last one...

Dude, that Tshirt is pretty cool.
OK, anyone got old school CRT monitor help? New job today, and sitting at the old clunky monitor was starting to give me a migraine, because of the way it was flashing/refreshing/whatever. It was like it was pulsating or flickering. What can I do about this?? Anything? (Besides ask for a new monitor) Buttons to push, settings to control, screen thing to buy to put over it? I swear, if I have to look at this thing every day like this, I may not last long in this job. (which I'll tell them if I have to, but...)
