09:38.49 | w1bble | http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x7/elchip/Motivators/TheRules.jpg |
09:39.09 | neoromantique | I've just connected to TalkTalk |
09:39.17 | neoromantique | Worst. Decission. Ever. Made. |
09:39.31 | gregj | :=] |
09:39.35 | gregj | but it's cheap... |
09:39.38 | gregj | you get what you pay for |
09:39.58 | neoromantique | Well, I did expect at least 8Mbit, for £16/pcm |
09:40.24 | neoromantique | And I barely hit 1.5mbit. |
09:40.58 | gregj | I'm paying 34 pm for 100mbps from virgin |
09:41.00 | gregj | best.service.ever. |
09:41.47 | neoromantique | I was paying 37 for Sky, I had somewhere about 30-40 mbit |
09:41.53 | neoromantique | Depending on time of the day |
09:41.57 | gregj | mind you, I don't have a tv. |
09:42.00 | gregj | only internet. that's it. |
09:42.03 | neoromantique | Neither do I |
09:42.05 | gregj | sky is shit |
09:42.13 | neoromantique | Virgin doesn't service my house |
09:42.24 | gregj | their sales man was trying to convince me, that I don't need more then 40 mbps if I use wifi |
09:42.27 | neoromantique | Other side of the street is connected, mine's not |
09:42.28 | gregj | what an idiot |
09:42.40 | neoromantique | To be fair, You don't usually need more than 40 |
09:42.49 | gregj | maybe if you use few year old sold as new cheap PCs |
09:42.50 | neoromantique | and with 802.11g you really don't need more than 40 :P |
09:42.52 | w1bble | neoromantique, cancel talktalk already as they cant provide a meaningful service |
09:43.04 | w1bble | they r the worst of the worst |
09:43.08 | gregj | :=] |
09:43.11 | neoromantique | w1bble: Nothing is available for the price |
09:43.18 | neoromantique | I can only go with Sky, Bt or TalkTalk |
09:43.26 | neoromantique | and I don't want to pay more than £20 |
09:43.49 | neoromantique | As long as youtube works fine, users in this house will be fine |
09:43.49 | w1bble | then suffer crap broken filtered (non)service then |
09:44.04 | neoromantique | What do you mean filtered? |
09:44.11 | w1bble | just that |
09:44.34 | neoromantique | How exactly filtered? |
09:44.52 | w1bble | traffic shaping |
09:44.57 | w1bble | that kinda filtering |
09:45.08 | w1bble | so forget torrents or voip |
09:45.38 | neoromantique | ah |
09:45.58 | neoromantique | SO that's why I'm hitting 230kbps downloading Pink Floyd albums |
09:46.08 | neoromantique | Well, I mean, fair enoguh |
09:46.25 | neoromantique | Nobody's gonna torrent here too much |
09:46.29 | neoromantique | and I move out just next week |
09:46.38 | gregj | I'm sure BT is better then talk talk, tehse days |
09:46.43 | w1bble | they used to crank traffic shaping @ peak times |
09:46.45 | neoromantique | as long as youtube/skype will work fine(hopefully) I'm wine |
09:46.53 | w1bble | I'm sure dial up beats talktalk |
09:47.09 | gregj | maybe buy it from itunes or some google , or amazon instead, it will be much faster ;) |
09:47.17 | gregj | or drive to shop, and buy CDs |
09:47.18 | gregj | ;) |
09:47.23 | neoromantique | gregj: It's more expensive |
09:47.31 | neoromantique | I don't buy music, I'm _that_ guy. |
09:47.32 | w1bble | visit a shop ... like in person? |
09:47.33 | gregj | nothing beats car full of CDs, in terms of transfer |
09:47.37 | w1bble | thats just wrong! |
09:47.44 | gregj | well, suit yourself, if you are that guy |
09:47.57 | neoromantique | w1bble: I hate to keep RIAA & co in business |
09:48.10 | neoromantique | It's not like Pink Floyd gets any decent money from my purchase |
09:48.14 | gregj | excuses excuses |
09:48.28 | gregj | you must be on pretty low income then |
09:48.44 | neoromantique | gregj: Tbh, <£10k/pa |
09:49.11 | neoromantique | gregj: But that's pretty irrelevant, as far as paying for content is concerned |
09:49.24 | gregj | well, I like to pay for things I use, it's only fair. |
09:49.27 | neoromantique | gregj: I guess it's more of mentality thing |
09:49.39 | gregj | I'd expect the same thing in return |
09:50.43 | neoromantique | I don't like idea of paying full price for an album, so artist gets some pennies from that, I'd rather save the money and spend them on tours instead |
09:54.28 | neoromantique | TalkTalk engineer is supposed to come in few hours, so I get to bash him a 'lil for slow internet |
09:54.35 | neoromantique | as they promised 16 mbit |

11:45.13 | cbz_ | unless your line is unbundled, DSL speed is more a factor of line quality than ISP |
11:48.26 | Armand | neoromantique: What the actual and entire fuck?? |
11:48.49 | Armand | This is how long after they rushed through a law removing our right to privacy ? |
11:53.19 | neoromantique | Armand: Legally removing* |
11:53.29 | neoromantique | Armand: I don't think we've had it de_facto for quite a while |
11:53.36 | Armand | There was nothing legal about that. |
11:53.55 | Armand | It was a knee-jerk reaction to maintain the status quo |
11:54.19 | Armand | "Quick!! 'FREEDOM' threatened.. Oppress moar!" |
11:54.33 | neoromantique | Armand: You're saying like UK's the only one to do this |
11:54.40 | Armand | Not at all |
11:54.46 | Armand | I've been to the USA. :P |
11:54.48 | neoromantique | In Russia, startgin from 2016 it's illegal to hold your data on foreign servers |
11:54.56 | neoromantique | I'm not even talking about shitstorm in USA |
11:55.02 | Armand | Glad I don't live in Russia |
11:55.29 | neoromantique | Armand: I'm more than sure that it will never be in place, people are opposing this law too much |
11:55.30 | Armand | Russia don't exactly make it's oppressive intent a secret. |
11:55.59 | neoromantique | Well, to be fair, it's not too far off from UK in that matter :) |
11:56.17 | Armand | Indeed.. Our MPs need to be lined up and shot. |
11:56.26 | neoromantique | I can get lost in Russia, and never be found. While still using all electronics |
11:56.38 | neoromantique | in UK however, I might as well dig myself underground for those purposes |
11:56.46 | Armand | China. :P |
11:57.03 | neoromantique | Well, China, as far as you stay away from big cities perhaps? |
11:57.12 | neoromantique | The general powerty of working class might help |
11:57.21 | Armand | You could disappear in the cities.. So many people |
11:57.38 | neoromantique | Yet, The Great Firewall of China |
11:57.49 | neoromantique | I'm talking about disappearing electronically too |
11:58.10 | neoromantique | aka accessing internet, in relatively persistent fashion |
11:58.14 | Armand | For me, it's not a massive issue in regards to breaking the law.. I simply don't. |
11:58.54 | Armand | But, I do not want to be tracked, collated, investigated and generally.... probed. O_o when there's no legitimate reason. |
11:59.11 | neoromantique | Armand: Yeah, prior to this law(linked), I could get fined for up to £400k |
11:59.28 | neoromantique | I had almost 1tb of music(800G) |
11:59.43 | Armand | Why should I HAVE to hide myself as if I am breaking the law, if I'm not ? |
11:59.54 | Armand | FYI: You still can.. ;) |
12:00.02 | neoromantique | Armand: I'm not sharing it |
12:00.12 | neoromantique | and so far, there were no arrests for possesing music |
12:00.18 | Armand | If we're to take that article as fact.. "Starting in 2015" |
12:00.19 | neoromantique | +I lost that HDD |
12:00.22 | Armand | lool |
12:00.35 | neoromantique | So right now I only have few albums |
12:00.38 | neoromantique | and I'm on shitty internet |
12:00.46 | neoromantique | so I will not be able to get it again for quite a whiel |
12:00.50 | neoromantique | (2-3 weeks) |
12:01.44 | Armand | Also... "Vince Cable, Business Secretary" |

12:05.38 | neoromantique | But if I will take UK citizenship in future(in case I get 'dat job) |
12:05.43 | neoromantique | i might lose it :( |
12:06.17 | dick_turpin | If we let you that is |
12:06.27 | Armand | Yeah... GET OUT!! |
12:06.30 | Armand | :P |
12:06.45 | Armand | Kidding.. totally.. *kicks neoromantique in the butt* |
12:06.53 | neoromantique | Armand: Heh |
12:07.18 | neoromantique | Armand: In fact, I was minority in Lithuania, and hated for being Russian, now I'm minority in UK, hated for being Lithuanian, lol. |
12:07.21 | neoromantique | I wonder what next :D |
12:07.24 | dick_turpin | morsing: Come to OggCamp you throwback |
12:07.46 | Armand | We can hate you for being ruski if you like, neoromantique ? |
12:08.02 | neoromantique | Armand: Yeah, I'd like that. Thank you |
12:08.06 | Armand | lol |
12:08.12 | Armand | I don't care either way. ;) |
12:08.13 | dick_turpin | You'd have more street cred if you said you was Romanian |
12:08.33 | Armand | Yeah.. People will love you so much, they will frequently kick your face in! |
12:08.37 | Armand | FOR FREE! |
12:08.55 | neoromantique | Armand: They would do that because they'd want to feel the face of a man-god? |
12:09.05 | Armand | On their feet.. Yes |
12:09.43 | dick_turpin | The English don't discriminate. We'll kick anyone |
12:09.50 | Armand | \o/ |

12:10.11 | Armand | And the Spanish.. |
12:10.15 | Armand | Italians.. |
12:10.17 | neoromantique | I like French :( |
12:10.20 | neoromantique | Only women though |
12:10.20 | Armand | Hehe |
12:10.23 | neoromantique | does it make me nationalistic sexist? |
12:10.30 | dick_turpin | Tsk the French go without saying |
12:10.36 | Armand | Nah.. That makes you a freak. |
12:10.42 | Armand | Hairy legs and pits.. Gross. |
12:10.57 | neoromantique | Armand: Depends on person |
12:11.17 | Armand | Well, yeah.. Some of them don't even shave the fuufuu |

12:14.14 | Armand | Still too skinny |
12:14.31 | neoromantique | Nah, just perfect ;p |
12:14.40 | neoromantique | there's also Joyce Jonathan |
12:14.58 | Armand | Narrow! |
12:15.08 | Armand | What's she like... 60lbs ? |
12:15.50 | neoromantique | Metric master race |
12:15.58 | neoromantique | Imperial* |
12:16.11 | Armand | What's "metric" ?? :P |
12:16.21 | neoromantique | Imperial |
12:16.24 | neoromantique | but you get the idea |
12:16.27 | neoromantique | I can't into "lbs" |
12:17.01 | Armand | google 'lbs to kg' |
12:17.03 | neoromantique | I get around Miles, by going *1.5 but not everything else |
12:17.24 | neoromantique | Ah |

12:17.56 | neoromantique | Did I hear it? |
12:18.01 | neoromantique | Was it plane? |
12:18.03 | neoromantique | or a bird? |
12:18.06 | Armand | No, it was Superman |
12:18.12 | neoromantique | Yes, I use Bing. Screw superman. |
12:18.16 | Armand | ¬_¬ |
12:18.30 | Armand | stabs neoromantique in the face with the Empire State building |
12:18.42 | neoromantique | But it is better than google! *according to NecroSoft! |
12:19.28 | dick_turpin | Bing my arse |
12:19.51 | neoromantique | Sorry, request too large |
12:19.55 | Armand | You had a door bell installed ? |
12:21.36 | neoromantique | Fuck TalkTalk man |
12:21.49 | neoromantique | their engineer was supposed to come from 8 to 1 pm |
12:21.55 | Armand | lulz! |
12:21.55 | neoromantique | He didn't come |
12:21.57 | Armand | As IF! |
12:22.12 | neoromantique | I have to leave dammit |
12:22.42 | Armand | Why don't they just come clean and call themselves "TwoBob Internets" |
12:22.44 | Armand | ? |
12:23.56 | neoromantique | I mean, I'm capable of connecting 2 cables myself |
12:24.06 | neoromantique | but I want to bash him for 3mbps I get instead of promised 16 |
12:24.08 | neoromantique | :C |
12:24.08 | Armand | Cables?? |
12:24.21 | neoromantique | 2 cables to router |
12:24.21 | Armand | Don't you mean 'string' ? |
12:24.30 | neoromantique | ADSL and Power |
12:24.39 | neoromantique | Armand: Nah, they're hiTech nowadays |
12:24.45 | Armand | Yeah.. ADSL = Two cans and string. |
12:25.08 | neoromantique | Armand: When I first came to UK, I was shocked that ADSL was still present |
12:25.17 | neoromantique | in Lithuania even in villages it's Fiber |
12:25.33 | neoromantique | I had 100mbit for less than £25(+iptv) since 2005 |
12:26.06 | neoromantique | In this house in UK |
12:26.11 | neoromantique | I can't have 100mbit for _any_ money |
12:26.38 | neoromantique | Best I can get is TalkTalk 74mbit(promised, in fact will likely be 10(?)) for crapload of money |
12:29.04 | Armand | VirginMedia are doing "150Mb/s" |
12:29.15 | neoromantique | Unavailable in my house |
12:29.19 | Armand | Also, http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3640544387 |
12:29.30 | neoromantique | Armand: In york you can get 1gbps |
12:29.47 | neoromantique | I just live in a shithole ;c |
12:29.52 | Armand | lol |
12:30.03 | neoromantique | Well |
12:30.07 | neoromantique | In 2 days I'll know |
12:30.45 | neoromantique | whether I'll get 1gbps in York, or 100 mbit in Lithuania -> something shitty in studentenhaus Germany |
12:31.17 | neoromantique | I feel relatively calm by now |
12:31.22 | neoromantique | Like, I'm fine either way |
12:31.54 | Armand | Well, I'll decide what I'm doing in the next year or so. :P |
12:32.31 | neoromantique | As in? |
12:32.58 | Armand | After I'm married and she's living with me. |
12:33.13 | Armand | I need to seriously consider my longterm career options. |
12:33.35 | neoromantique | Ah |
12:33.45 | neoromantique | Well, McDonald's Is always recruting ;p |
12:34.00 | Armand | ¬_¬ |
12:34.09 | hali | banking? |
12:34.14 | Armand | Gawd, no. |
12:34.33 | Armand | Not unless I'm gonna rob that motherfucker blind! |
12:34.51 | neoromantique | Like windows xp? go to NHS |
12:41.15 | neoromantique | The Independent is writing how Cameron is Blaming Germany and France about situation with Russia |
12:41.17 | neoromantique | lol. |
12:48.09 | dick_turpin | That's because the Independent is for wiping your bum on. Having said that I heard on the radio this morning Germany relies heavily on trade with Russia and is worried about a tit for tat if stricter sanctions are imposed because apparently Russia could hurt Germany more than the sanctions would hurt Russia. |
12:49.17 | dick_turpin | Maybe the Germans are worried in case the Red Army comes for another visit? |
12:49.46 | cbz_ | isn't the independent owned by an oligarch these days? |
12:52.09 | neoromantique | _aren't we all?_ |
12:52.25 | Armand | ^ |
12:52.46 | neoromantique | dick_turpin: Thing is, EU is Union, 2-3% shift in GDP could endanger it's existance |
12:53.12 | neoromantique | Russia has recovered from fall of Soviet union, and quadruppled its GDP in past 20 years |
12:53.30 | neoromantique | So if anything, Russia will hold longer than EU will, without talking about individual nations though |
12:54.02 | neoromantique | +Russia has resources and China to fullfill internal market. |
12:55.30 | dick_turpin | neoromantique: Europe can blow me as far as I'm concerned |
12:56.46 | neoromantique | dick_turpin: As long as you can keep getting your own gas and oil, you're fine |
12:57.00 | neoromantique | Which isn't exactly the case with most of europe |
12:57.18 | neoromantique | Ok guys, I have to go |
12:57.27 | neoromantique | Fucking TalkTalk engineer never arrived |
12:57.41 | Armand | File a complaint |
12:57.41 | dick_turpin | Gas and Oil is going to run out. We need lots and lots of lovely reactors |
12:58.33 | Armand | Moar solaaar! |
12:58.42 | neoromantique | dick_turpin: How convinient, Russia is one of leading heads in Nuclear field ;p |
12:58.51 | neoromantique | Armand: Die, greenie ;p |
12:59.09 | Armand | beats neoromantique with a wind turbine |
12:59.30 | neoromantique | Nuclear(even with all catasthropes in mind) is still the most safe and efficient way to make electricity |
12:59.38 | neoromantique | Even safer than wind, lol! |
12:59.55 | Armand | Not at all |
13:00.01 | dick_turpin | neoromantique: Fook em, we're getting ours from Japan |
13:00.09 | neoromantique | per kW, I mean |
13:00.11 | neoromantique | dick_turpin: Lol, gl |
13:00.17 | neoromantique | Lithuania is still waiting for it |
13:00.22 | neoromantique | (I'm in UK for this precise reason) |
13:00.25 | neoromantique | fook EU |
13:00.28 | Armand | A wind turbine has NEVER cracked and spewed radioactive waste into the sea. |
13:00.41 | neoromantique | Armand: Nature is spewing radioactive waste into the sea |
13:01.01 | cbz_ | not in the same concentrations |
13:01.06 | dick_turpin | Armand: But they ruin the view of my peasants working in the fields! |
13:01.06 | Armand | Invalid complaint: Logic error |
13:01.32 | neoromantique | cbz_: concetrations are irrelevant, as far as sea is concerned, it spreads out really fast |
13:01.37 | neoromantique | and fish are immune to it ;p |
13:02.02 | cbz_ | Not really, it can take sufficiently long to spread that it gets to be a local problem |
13:02.19 | neoromantique | cbz_: hasn't been the case to this day |
13:02.27 | neoromantique | neither in Chernobyl or Fukushima |
13:05.07 | neoromantique | RBMK are generally safe, and the only reason why Chernobyl was the way it was, is that they disabled all security measures and overpowered the plant |
13:05.16 | neoromantique | We've studied that in School |
13:06.10 | neoromantique | And in next generations of RBMK, in the likes of Obninsk, Russia; Visaginas, Lithuania(now closed, hence why I'm in UK) are completely immune to it, and in fact repetition of Chernobyl scenario is simply impossible |
13:06.17 | neoromantique | <PROTECTED> |
13:06.20 | neoromantique | away |
13:07.36 | cbz_ | There were elevated levels in the Black Sea and off the Coast of Japan for about a year after each incident. And there are safer types of reactors than the graphite moderated sort. |
13:08.07 | Armand | Any which way.. to assume that nuclear is in any way safe is just plain ignorant. |
13:08.19 | cbz_ | No reason for taking a blanket non-nuclear stance though, that would be just stupid |
13:08.49 | Armand | Sustainable energy is perfectly valid. |
13:08.52 | neoromantique | Armand: Solar takes shitload of oil, Wind is inefficient as hell. |
13:09.01 | neoromantique | Armand: Nuclear is sutainable |
13:09.11 | Armand | I think you've gotten confused.. |
13:09.15 | neoromantique | The issue is that it is not researched properly |
13:09.42 | neoromantique | https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FBN-800_reactor&h=QAQH95Cbn |
13:10.04 | neoromantique | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BN-800_reactor |
13:10.38 | neoromantique | This reactor(launched in RUssia recently) uses, previously Nuclear waste, as main source of fuel |
13:11.09 | Armand | http://9bytz.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/you-shall-not-pass-gandalf-stamp-2.jpg |
13:11.36 | neoromantique | If russians know something |
13:11.53 | neoromantique | its their shit around computers(hackers) and Nuclear reactors |
13:12.30 | neoromantique | I'm from the family of engineers, and I feel _dumb_ in comparison because I went with IT :( |
13:12.38 | Armand | Hacked, by the Chinese.. :P |
13:13.26 | neoromantique | Ok |
13:13.27 | neoromantique | I'm gone |
13:13.33 | neoromantique | Armand: You're wrong, and you should feel bad |
13:13.38 | neoromantique | :> |
13:13.53 | Armand | I completely disagree, but never mind. |
13:14.16 | neoromantique | That's why science is wonderful, it doesn't give a crap whether you agree or not |
13:14.34 | neoromantique | greenies can further spend money on fundametally wrong utopia like Solar Roadways |
13:14.46 | neoromantique | while real sciencists will develop real sectors |
13:14.52 | Armand | Indeed, nor does it give a crap if you are completely wrong and blinkered. |
13:16.37 | Armand | Also... It's "Solar FREAKIN' Roadways!! SOLAR... FREAKIN'... ROADWAYS!!!!1!!" |
13:17.11 | neoromantique | lol |
13:17.24 | neoromantique | People to this day believe them |
13:17.40 | Armand | Why wouldn't you? |
13:17.55 | Armand | It's certainly more believable that safe nuclear. |
13:17.59 | neoromantique | It's fundamentally wrong and impossible to engineer? |
13:17.59 | Armand | *Than |
13:18.04 | Armand | Hahahahaa!! |
13:18.11 | cbz_ | most nuclear reactors don't explode |
13:18.18 | neoromantique | Armand: If you think Nuclear is threat, then you don't know shit about nuclear |
13:18.21 | Armand | "I'm from the family of engineers" DERP! |
13:18.43 | Armand | Threat? No.. It's Russia Roulette... Pardon the obvious pun. |
13:18.51 | Armand | *Russian, even |
13:18.56 | neoromantique | Armand: at this point I am confused where you're sarcasting and where not |
13:19.50 | neoromantique | Armand: Trust me, living in 5km from working _soviet_ powerplant of _chernobyl_ design(RBMK), is kinda BIG FUCKING INFLUENCE to learn my shit around that thing lel |
13:20.23 | Armand | is AFK |
13:20.39 | neoromantique | And in our school physics teacher, was retired engineer from that plant, who helped design whole thing, so yeah. |
13:20.45 | neoromantique | And so am I! |

19:04.51 | neoromantique | no |
19:04.59 | Armand | O_o |
19:05.05 | neoromantique | I had higher bandwidth on 3G |
19:05.13 | Armand | O_O |
19:06.53 | Armand | I'd have to hurt someone if I were getting speedtests like that. |
19:07.32 | neoromantique | I called TalkTalk |
19:07.39 | neoromantique | They told me they had storm over weekend |
19:07.43 | neoromantique | so a lot of equipment is broken |
19:07.47 | neoromantique | + I've just connected today |
19:07.55 | neoromantique | so it's gonna be better after 3-7 and 14 days |

22:26.37 | neoromantique | I definitely feel that they're shaping traffic |
22:26.49 | neoromantique | I can't stream music off vk.com, but watch 720p youtube videos somewhat reliably |
22:27.05 | neoromantique | and when I was connecting, I _specifically_ asked customer service whether they are shaping traffic or not |
22:27.09 | neoromantique | I was assured that they don't. |
22:35.11 | Armand | All ISPs will. |
22:35.39 | Armand | Unless you are with one of the small fibre to premises providers. |
22:35.53 | Armand | Sure as hell our ISP doesn't do it. :P |
22:46.15 | neoromantique | Will your ISP gimme internets? |
22:46.18 | neoromantique | For £20/pcm |
22:46.21 | neoromantique | pretty please? |
22:46.51 | neoromantique | It's only 100miles of cabling, nothing fanc |
22:46.53 | neoromantique | y |
22:47.16 | Armand | We have our own dedicated fibre install. |
22:47.34 | Armand | 144 lines of 10Gbps into the DC. |
22:48.19 | neoromantique | I'd like to have two of these, kthnx |
22:48.37 | neoromantique | I gotta need some failsafe internet for torrenting too |
22:48.39 | Armand | 2 marijuanas, please. |
22:48.56 | neoromantique | Yes, 2 large pills of marijuanas |
22:49.01 | Armand | lol |
22:55.29 | Armand | But, yeah.. We don't provide that service. We just host websites/servers. |
22:58.03 | neoromantique | Yeah, I figured:) |
22:58.11 | neoromantique | Ok, I'll head to sleep |
22:58.16 | neoromantique | with Pink Floyd in my headphones |

22:58.26 | Armand | Also, Floyd wins! |
22:58.38 | neoromantique | I've spent 14 hours |
22:58.43 | neoromantique | to dl' some albums in flac |
22:58.46 | neoromantique | and one 1.5 gb movie |
22:58.48 | Armand | I must set up VPN soon, so I can download at awesome speeds to my VDS! |
22:58.51 | neoromantique | like 3gb download |
22:58.59 | Armand | 3GB, few seconds. |
22:59.04 | neoromantique | it took me whole, fucking day. |
22:59.07 | Armand | :/ |
22:59.12 | neoromantique | In 2006, I would download 3gb in less than 10 minutes |
22:59.17 | neoromantique | Maybe 20 on a bad day |
22:59.21 | neoromantique | 8 years ago. |
22:59.48 | neoromantique | Hopefully they fix this. |
22:59.55 | Armand | Hope so. |
23:00.00 | Armand | Right.. I r gone |
23:00.03 | neoromantique | Or therwise, I will have to write a strongly worded letter condemning their service |
23:00.08 | Armand | lol |
