I'm confused, I used to sell cell phones, even did customer service for AT&T at a call center but that wouldn't be relevant to Canadian rules. I thought they couldn't increase the price on a proper contract? Or was it not a contract and Fido just increased it cause they were douches or have rules changed?

Okay I couldn't wait and looked. Guess plan price is not included so assume it's just a fancy payment plan....i was used to the standard contract but I guess I see why the budget carriers are budget now. They're generally cheaper per month still, been enjoying Koodo since I ditched Rogers cause they lied to me.

Least it's been long enough for when Koodo lies I'll feel semi okay to switch back to Rogers carriers. Cause I know that's the issue when you have standards with 2 real carriers. Unsure if Bell counts as a third since they use Telus towers but whatever.

Finding new Mozart material? Fucking awesome! For a guy who wrote his first symphony at age 8, I was playing with GI Joes and Transformers at the time.

Still trying to understand music properly at nearing 50 myself, let alone understand how to make many instruments sound well together if even not making something anyone wants to hear hundreds of years later.

Course not my profession at least just a hobby.

Wow I'm not sure how old that title makes me feel..... nevermind my correct age but having to explain who George Lucas is would be very odd for a younger me. Obviously he did one of the best trilogies of all time, then....

Maybe they annoyed a media owner? Which if so makes them better in my book, but since I really dunno shrug

Didn't that Russian cockholster of a leader just say they weren't enemies of Ukraine too? Or something similar. Funny how that works....oh no you're awesome I'd never hurt you motions to friends hurry up and get that shit ready when no one is looking

I imagine this time it was drone relays while he made that public statement. Like Russia even cares about them or their leader.

Hah that was the leader saying how awesome it's be a Russian Colonel too if I recall. Least something that sounded as odd....unless you're one of Putin's cockholsters that is. Mean to each their own but I doubt the citizens care too much for his submission.

Only the lucky ones. Actually I dunno, Im mostly familiar with the spiral types, lived in one for awhile but haven't checked out many others yet. Well once had a good look at Andromeda and it was a looker for sure, but nowadays I go to sleep to early

I played for awhile a couple years back and it was fun. I owned it for awhile before but didn't put serious time till then for whatever reason. I think the general consensus is that it definitely improved over the years since release. I never did anything but solo things too so the harder content was still nothing I checked out.

I think they got a lot of the major bugs out but given it's a fallout game there's plenty more I assume.

Last I played storage sucked without the subscription for the gathering box which is a big downside cause I love to pick up crap.

I knew it was a box think I first saw it when curious about a hardware kodi (say 15-18 years ago?) back when they were newer. Though I just wanted something to show me what I have in my network, never used the other streaming on it, maybe missed out I dunno.

Oh I replied cause I wanted a device/program to have a nice browsing interface for my owned files, and having a program with ads? Big nope. Mean maybe I missed out but nothing I've read seemed overly interesting when I just wanted a nice interface. Now just use a PC with Kodi for my stuff with browsers / apps for streaming, works well enough. Probably pay too many services but not the only one in the house.

If I could never see another ad I'd be so happy heh south Park flashbacks.

I agree, as a Canadian even if not perfect I couldn't imagine having a pay system or even what the US calls healthcare. That's the point of taxation, we get roads that are drivable, healthcare that is affordable and stuff like food standards, clean drinking water, education. The billionaires are trying to say everyone else doesn't need such things so they can get a bigger nibble of the pie when they already have truckloads.

I wasn't diagnosed until 30, I could have probably had a degree at least. Mean I got halfway back in the day but yeah. High school was so easy I barely had to study, also didn't help with the work ethic for later. Nowadays I take random online courses sometimes just to learn new stuff. Plus it helps I'm too old to party but is that a factor? I'll never know. Mm

This is cyberpunk, but where are our neural inputs so we can watch TV in sim sense? The future sucks. They are supposed to wait until we can be placated by technology properly before really hammering it in. That'll be $5 debited from your account for the comment, thank you

Definitely, Trump's beak wasn't wet enough even if he just dived into the water. He's had a taste, everyone treats him with kid gloves.....so ask for more, and more....you thought that was enough? Nope a bit more. Fat fucker is gorging himself on the world's economy and the US lets him get away with it.

Ya ya I know work and shit but the orange turd has flushed away all credibility of the US and still continues. Basically allowed themselves to be a rogue nation, when you feel Iran is the creditable party then you know you all fucked up. That was months ago. And here we are.

He just wants his mob boss kickback as standard for bosses and orange piles of shit. I'd probably take a random mob boss over Trump they'd have some restraint and decency.
