Then after giving them info for the new modem they didn't give warning resetting the old one making the call drop, and didn't call back leaving me to guess if it was ready to hook up the new modem (luckly it worked after some fiddling power cycling). Very unprofessional!

Hey @breezeline seems customer service has gone even more downhill. Replacing my modem, I called and got the most unintelligible agent broken English with a microphone cutting in and out LOUD static and call center chatter in the background. Really hard to do anything!

FUCK YOU NORTON... Turning on the VPN broke connectivity I was using to restore theu my local network. Even after I said it was a home network. Why is your software so damned horrible?!

This stupid thing is even fighting connecting to my NAS on my local network. If I ever get this stupid computer working again they're going to be getting rid of all the Norton malware on this machine and I'll be setting them up with Windows Defender and Acronis TrueImage.

And seems they were convinced to upgrade Save&Restore2 to 360 which apparently does not provide proper system backups so I can't even restore Windows from a previous backup from a couple months ago when it worked...

Once again, Norton screwing up my parents computer...seems this time its decided to quarantine and remove lots of MS Office documents that were copied from our Mac to our PC and possibly some other files that have broken the ability to log into their accounts. UGH!

Then just to add insult to injury, Norton 360 has no "restore to original location" in quarantine. You can only do Delete/Extract/Send for analysis.

@kevinxu No, that's $27 for pizza. The rest is convenience fees and tips. Go pick it up and don't pay the fees or get a frozen pizza and pop it in the oven for like $5

$45 for 1 pizza. how can families afford this?

@lady_valor_07 Call a stock broker...and get in on the ground floor of software engineering

🤔

@ZayNaimm Ah, a Kwikset key...not bad, could be slightly more square and clear for the cuts in the photo but probably enough to decode.

After two years of sleeping on the couch, and working dead end jobs, I did it! New apartment, new state, new career. 🥹🙏🏾

I guess I won't search for paint sprayers at @HomeDepot then...

@marknoble @Tesla Compared to aftermarket dash cams that have clear easy to read plates? Even my old 1080p Garmin seems easier to read license plates (which I've done before) than what he pulled off his Model Y recordings

@computergeek06 @Tesla Compared to what? 🤔

Every Tesla has Dashcam built in, recording your drive from every angle This is not only useful for accidents – you can hit Save on anything interesting, funny or strange you see while on the road Then review & save the footage in Park

@marknoble @Tesla That works assuming you have time to look while recovering from being hit

@computergeek06 @Tesla I have a Thinkware 4K. Still can be hard to get a plate unless they're right in front of you. I'm in the habit of repeating the plate out loud so I have it in audio because I can see when cams can't.

@dominos Will do. Asking at the local store I was told $20 delivery minimum and $40 max cash purchase is some new corporate policy along with something about tip changes on in-store payments (which I don't know what exactly that means)

@computergeek06 Yikes! That sounds disappointing, and we’d like to help get this addressed. Visit bit.ly/DPZSMSupport so we can follow up. Please enter reference #8034272 when prompted so we can assist. *Katie

So apparently @dominos now has a $20 minimum for delivery...guess they don't want our business now because we can't eat that much food before we'd have to throw it out getting dry and funky...

@ItsMeHeiri If you mean cellphone that'd be LG VX2000 in high school or smartphone then the HTC Touch Pro2 half way thru college.

@ItsMeHeiri When I was "a kid"? That's gonna be one of these...cell phone was something wealthy people had in a bag or wired into their automobile.

I've learned my community is made up of a bunch old people so.. What was ya'lls phone when you were a kid? This was mine, if you recognize this, you get bonus points!!

@draken_gray @Matt_Pinner Physical keys makes everything faster

@Matt_Pinner 999 33 7777. The fact that we actually got fast at this is remarkable.

Have you ever seen this phone? A) Yes B) No

@XEng @X I guess you haven't heard of redundant datacenters? Maybe some of those so-called unnecessary servers you shut down were actually more important than you understand?

We're still experiencing issues from yesterday's data center outage. Login and signup services are unavailable for some users, and there may be delays in notifications and Premium features. Our team is working 24/7 to resolve this. Thanks for your patience—updates soon.
