Can't tell if it should be higher in the first place
IIRC, Steam was attempting to download a game update at the time I took the screenshot, and I had been attempting unsuccessfully to watch a YT video but paused it so the game update could finish. So yeah, it should have been using close to the full capacity. It's possible something was broken "out there" between me and both Steam and YT. Oddly enough, speedtest.net gave me 50+Mbps down and somewhere in the teens (of Mbps, you pervs) up.

@HardwareGeek That shows actual data flow rates, not capacity. Can't tell if it should be higher in the first place, or where the issue is if it should be higher; the Internet is really complicated behind the scenes.
On a ticket about a very similar thing. "It's slow" . "Well yeah, you're sharing an AP with 50 other users, don't expect gigabit wifi."

@TimeBandit the same one as always: I just can't get @Polygeekery leave me alone. I tried begging, I tried threatening, I tried changing accounts, nothing works.
-
@Gustav so you think posting into every fuckin thread will help?
This won't make everybody pissed at you
-
I'm done don't worry.
-
@Gustav it's almost like he only does it to get a reaction. Just ignore it if it bothers you that much.
-
@loopback0 I tried ignoring him once, back in 2018. It didn't end well.

Only the ones in , but AFAICT he managed to hit every one of them.

Great, now every single thread in the garage is showing as unread, thanks asshole.

Certainly hope so. I was caught up a couple hours ago.

@dcon There hasn't been much, if anything, other than his little tantrum and the spat with @Polygeekery that led to it. You can pretty safely just mark the whole category read without missing anything important.

That's true if you were up to date.
Except now there are loads of old topics at the top of the list and none of the recent topics are easily findable without scrolling through multiple "pages" assuming NodeBB doesn't just give up loading more topics.

Yeah, I was replying specifically to @dcon, who said he was recently up to date. If you had a lot of unread threads, that's a different matter.

There's still a couple in there. I scrolled to the bottom of the unreads and am working up. Looks like most of what I haven't read is down there.
-
@Gern_Blaanston I asked privately, logically and nicely and that didn't work, so I'll reply to the post.
Not everyone here is at the same level. Some I have identified as being at the bottom, but I prefer not to tar everyone with the same brush until I know for sure.

Gave up on it. Bonkers plot and voice acting but dull game. Tried ninja blade. Gave up after thirty qtes. Let's try Bleak Sword.
When did I get all this shit? Bloody steam sales.

I hate QTEs. I just don't have the fine motor coordination, even after many, many repetitions.

The worst of mine are from searching the Steam store for "free".

Status: I don't like this online-only world.
I'm trying to buy wireless notebooks - the paper type. Grocery store, Ocean Job Lot (an "Ollies" type overstock store), Target, Walmart, even fucking Staples don't carry them. So, of course, I go online to see what the options are there. Lots of search engines confuse "wireless" and "wired" because why not. Yeah, paying $15 to ship a $3 notebook is a non-starter. I can get free shipping past a certain amount but the only places that seem to carry them for a reasonable price (not $25 each) sell only paper products. So no ordering something else and tossing a couple of notebooks in with them. No, I have to buy a dozen of them because somehow Palpatine returned.
I miss when local stores didn't suck donkey dick for absolutely everything.

Status: Due in (probably) part to the excessive movement I've been engaged in for the last two weeks it appears parts of my [femoral-sartorius?] nerves on the left leg are partially activating again.
This is distinctly uncomfortable and I wish it to cease or resume full functionality.
In other news, thanks to the said partial restoration of nervous functionality, I am now in pain when maneuvering my left leg in some less-common-but-still-used-semi-regularly movements. Ouch.
Filed under: Well don't do that then.

status: I have just noticed the cleaning staff have removed the bowl and fork I was using to cook with. But nothing else.

Goddamnit who fucked up this time?
Imagine a standard hotel alcove including an ice pail with cups, coffee machine, napkins, fast-food drink cup with straw, and Ramen packages, with a suspiciously clear space where a bowl might have gone.

Alternative solution has been found, utilizing disposable coffee cups and a bit of cleverness.
Good thing I shouldn't need to do this more than once, eh?
-
@Tsaukpaetra just ask them for another fork and bowl?

@loopback0 said in The Official Status Thread:

They never provided it in the first place. I was reusing a wax-coated paper bowl from an instant-ramen bowl.
Since I didn't really want to go out today, I used my creative juices to MacGyver a solution.
