    I hate daylight savings time changes. I'm now back to 9 hours ahead of CST, when I was so used to being only 8 hours ahead. That's one more hour before everyone wakes up back home and on the forums, and one more hour I have to wait before the stock market opens. Why can't they just abolish the practice already? It served its purpose.

    I heard some dumb stat on the radio today concerning daylight savings time changes. Supposedly because of the 1 hour change, some percentage of people die more often around the solstices or some dumb shit like that. Sheesh, way to use statistics to improve our lives, scientists.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    What about the statistics that say how many people would die if there was no daylight savings time? Getting up in the morning was becoming so much harder before the time fell back an hour. I'd be half asleep on my drive to work.

    My bedroom clock didn't reset automatically. My phone and computer say it's 6:32 and my clock says it's 7:30.

    Now it's both slow and fast at the same time. What the hell??

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    I could make an essay also...but meh...Im lazy.Worked sucked today for me as well. A lot.

    Ok... I'll write it anyway...

    2 months ago I sent some test cases to Marketing and Billing...

    Today I see they forgot to add them to the project and I told them that I was not accepting their test cases, nor would give our acceptance to install it.

    Now they are whining about that they need to release it fast.

    Fuck em.

    So my mom owns a 4 family house that she rents out. And there's this one tenant that's a huge problem. Frequently late with rent, calls us to tell us she has rent then doesn't have it, does drugs, gets into fights with people, noisy, the list just goes on and on. So now she's 3 months late on rent and we're trying to evict her through a lawyer. But she refuses.

    Now the crazy bitch, who frequently gets into fights and arguments calls us one day to tell us that she's planning to sue us for $50,000 because she hurt her foot or some shit on a stray brick in our hallway (wtf?) and was in the hospital for 2 days. Or we can pay her $20,000 and she'll forget the law suit. Even if she was hurt, chances are it's from one of her scuffles and she's just using that shit to extort money out of us. Fuck that shit. Fucking dumbass bitch.

    That completely sucks Animus...

    You guys should gather proof that she is always getting into fights, its a drug addict and doesn't pay so if she tries anything she gets finally kicked and pays or goes to jail...

    I hate that people...

    You should record your conversations with this idiot woman so you can prove she's extorting you. Even if it's not legal to do so, it can scare her away.

    Seems like there's a lot to bitch about lately. Vuze decided to mess up their perfectly good torrent client with an update that looks terrible and isn't as intuitive or usable as the previous. And of course, utorrent.com is blocked on my network so I'll have to find the installer elsewhere.

    Same here, but my game of choice is CoD4. I wanted to hit 69 so bad tonight, but I guess it isn't happening . Oh well, I still have tomorrow to get as far as I can. I already know I'm not hitting 70 by Lich King, but I've accepted that now, and at least I got to 68.
    Now 99% disease free!

    My ISP capped me even though I didn't use up all my quota

    Funny thing was, I rang them and they tried to help me diagnose the problem. They told me to try this and that, then said it was something to do with my browser. Then I told them to try this and that, and they said they'll get back to me when they're finished

    Meh.

    I hate it when you help someone out and they use what you helped them with to annoy the shit out of you. For example, I gave some movies to someone at work. Next thing I know, he's goofing off watching movies when he should be working, and I have to yell at him to get him back to work.

    I helped this goober get media player classic working on his PC and now he sits and watches shit all day, laughing as loud as he can. Makes me want to punch myself for helping him to annoy me. I have admin rights on his PC so I want to backdoor him and make the program no longer work, but then he'll hit me up for tech support to fix the problem, and I could lose my job for unauthorized access.

    Happily these sorts of problems encourage you to learn new things. I just learned about the taskkill command for remote administration. Now I just need to verify that my activity on the remote PC is not discernible beyond a recorded blip on the security log in event viewer.

    Yeah, that guy brought this on himself. Just hope you can set things straight without getting fired. Would it do anything to lodge a complaint to your superiors?

    One of those days....

    Dad decides I'm "spending too much time on the net", so decides to pull the phone cable out of the modem in his room whenever he's sleeping or gone out. He goes on to say depending on how things go, he might cancel the internet.

    Fuck.

    Anyway, I brainstormed 4 options I could take depending on how things turned out, two of which were not legally possible. I confirmed with our ISP.

    So basically, my two options are:

    1) Purchase another wireless ADSL modem/router and place it hidden behind a cupboard where there's also a phone socket. I've got full access to our ISP account and all, as well as admin rights to all the computers and routers, so during downtimes, I can activate this connection while the other's down.

    If a) option 1 fails, or b) household internet is taken off, then I'll have to resort to a more costly alternative.

    Option 2) Start up an ADSL account at uni using the UNI's ISP. I can link this additional quota with my regular Student Quota, so I don't need an address. Problem is I need to access this at school. Given school computers all have program access rights and restrictions, I'll also have to purchase a laptop for downloading stuff. I'm pretty sure I'm allowed to use my account for non-educational use as long as I purchased an ADSL account. I almost got filed in for misconduct one time because of that

    Thing is, Uni's ISP charges are ridiculous, and I'm not sure how reliable P2P is through their proxy, so depending on how things go, I may have to resort to IRC. And then I still have the issue of internet at home. If it all goes down this way, I may be spending a LOT of time at uni soon

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    On the other hand, I have a few movies I want to download. My ISP gives us free traffic on Christmas, so that's all good. Problem is the torrents go so slowly that they won't finish in a day, and I don't think I'll have enough spare quota to finish them if that happens. I rarely have spare quota at the end of the month after all the anime downloads.

    So my only solution is to spend my quota downloading those movies now, and hold off a large portion of the current airing shows till Christmas. That ensures I'll have enough quota to do both, and hopefully the anime seeds will be much healthier than the movie ones, ensuring I max out my line during Xmas, finishing all my tasks.

    Bitch is, Naruto just got good, I need my mecha action, Tomoya humour, Mintato fix, Chaos;Head brain scrambler, Index magic, Soul Resonance.......

    These are all HD too, making my method less effective if I download them over others. *sigh*

    Oh well, there's my whining for the day.

    That's like....something I'd expect from someone trying to parent a 12 year old. You're old enough to be able to make your own decisions on how to spend your time. You should move out and get your own place. Problem solved!
