keykey posted:What provider are you on? Cricket right now, going on a camping trip in a couple weeks in a remote area, so I'll probably use the second SIM slot for a prepaid sim that works in the area. I've got poo poo coverage with T-Mobile in my area and I've been really happy with AT&T / Cricket's coverage. Cricket limits to 8M speeds, but that's perfectly fine for me and mobile.

keykey posted:HA! That's exactly what my next question was going to be. We're on AT&T and getting raped on price vs other carriers and Verizon has the best coverage and about 1/2 the price of our current plan with 2x the shared data and that's taking into account chatting up AT&T's customer retention department last month since we still have 2 phones on contract. The only downside is phones that Verizon works with.. But, I mean do I get a phone that's pretty drat good and pay 1/2 price for the best coverage or do I get an amazing phone and raped on my plan with pretty good coverage? That's why we're moving to Verizon in the next couple months. Verizon has good phones, but more interesting stuff, like the Zenfone, is more globally focused, so they are all GSM only. Verizon also forces the manufacturers to lock the phones down so it is exceedingly difficult or impossible to gain root access and run different roms, like Cyanogenmod or even a debloated stock rom. Edit: it would cost me $310 to terminate my Verizon contract, which is up September of next year. bandman fucked around with this message at 17:46 on Aug 11, 2015 |

Just got back home from 3 weeks in the UK. Summary of events: 1. visited family 2. got horribly sick for 2 weeks 3. flew home. Special apologies to InitialDave, I meant to call you but then I got sick and couldn't manage to operate a phone between bouts of blowing it out of both ends.

Elmnt80 posted:Make a stinger from a short length of rg6, a 9v and some electrical tape! Strip one end of the wire, leaving the other end with a fitting, wrap it around both ends of the 9v, secure with tape and you're good. Hook it up to a wall outlet and stick your tounge to wire until you find the hot one. Bonus points if you find one with phone signal running through it and get 90v instead! How about no I can figure out most of what goes where just by seeing what wall the wire disappears into. Problem is the house is old enough to have A/B cable, so there's 2 wires (and 2 jacks) per cable. If I'm gonna go as far as to build a stinger, I may as well buy a cheap toner instead. My goal isn't necessarily to get everything hooked up, it's more to get all of the cables organized, cut down a bit in length, neatly run, and labeled. Also that spaghetti mess is severely loving with the modem, or TWC is having issues (I'm betting TWC). Cable modem kept dropping out until I disconnected the MTA and its splitter (modem is now on the lowest loss port of the only splitter); still seeing some packet loss (looks like about 8% while pinging Google's primary DNS), but the signal quality is much improved, and the modem isn't logging any CRC errors. If my friend doesn't mail that amp soon I'll go ahead and drop the $50 on it myself. Cable modem is showing zero CRC errors, but I can't hit TWC's DNS server (switched to Google's for now), and I'm still getting random timeouts. the spyder posted:Also STR- thanks for the upgrade! Dude, you sent me a pretty drat nice switch and a SSD. Least I could do. meatpimp posted:Just ordered a Zenfone 2 to replace my Nexus 5. Hmmmmm. Nexus 5 2015 is supposedly just around the corner. I'm trying to keep my N5 alive - so far I've replaced the battery (and the back cover I mangled). Now the power button acts like I'm hitting it 20 times if I so much as sneeze on it, and it's soldered to the board. I've mapped a volume button to work as the power button for now, but that doesn't work when I'm listening to music. Just looked up the specs on the Zenphone 2, looks pretty drat nice. Especially for the price. Great Beer posted:Fun poo poo. My dad's el Camino developed some kind of rod knock last week too. While he was showing it to a prospective buyer no less. The worst part is this car was new enough to have a 6 digit odometer. Less than 80k on it. Terminal rust though, since he's from Michigan and it was a late 80s GM. bandman posted:Edit: it would cost me $310 to terminate my Verizon contract, which is up September of next year. Somehow I got out of my Verizon contract (though this was FiOS) - someone had offered to let me out of it about 6 months ago, but said I'd lose all discounts. I said no at the time, but when I called to cancel, they told me I wouldn't have an ETF as someone had cancelled the contract for me. Saved me $200. mariooncrack posted:Moto g 2015?

So far my shopping cart has a clutch kit, carb rebuild kit and a thermostat because it didn't come with one from the factory to get the 125GP bike ready to go. I should probably order tires because these ones are old as hell Pretty sure I'm going to say screw Montana or TomorrowWorld and go the track instead.

Granted, these cars were built like trucks, but its not impossible. My wifes Sonata is rated for 2000 lbs. Don't plan on towing that much with it, but once moved, I will be buying a smallish trailer. It will be handy for running around town and not having to use a giant truck to yank poo poo around.
