@Ask_Spectrum - What can you tell me about the outage that started yesterday early afternoon in the 27587 area code? Can’t chat w/customer service since we are in an outage (lol). Robo updates indicate “No ETA” on resolution. I work from home and this has been tough to manage.

@FDSN_Hurricanes @Canes Soooo are you going to put the game on or I am stuck watching snow sports?

Some of y’all forget the reason we have food safety regulations is because companies used to do things like adding chalk to spoiled milk so it looked normal. Regulations don’t exist because governments enjoy them. They exist because pure unadulterated capitalism would kill us.
