Huh, it's actually snowing, and…we're supposed to get a foot or more of it over the next few days.
I don't like that I've been awake since 5am and have had…far too many meetings.
@joeo10 if it requires a mobile phone app to join, I'm definitely not interested. Deleted all that stuff on my phone weeks ago. Best decision I've made in a while.
@matigo Well, given that Seattle will actually have a hockey team this year (the Kraken), I might care at some point. :P
Glad I didn't waste time watching the Superb Owl, but I did watch the highlight reel so I don't come off as completely ignorant in work conversations. Couple observations:
- Tampa Bay really got after Mahomes and he still managed to get the ball off most of the time.
- Had the Chiefs receivers not dropped several of those balls, the result might have turned out differently.
- Brady and Gronk? Still got it.
Ok, now I can mostly ignore Sportsball again.
@joeo10 Last year during Super Bowl, I was in Austria where the game was on after midnight. I watched because the 49ers were in it. That was a very late, disappointing evening.
This year? I'm home and not really interested. Barely watched the playoffs.
@matigo actually, at least from what I've read on Reddit, the upstream is NOT throttled, only the downstream is. Which is… interesting.
@matigo we pay some of the highest prices in the world for basic connectivity in the Land of the Free. Canada is even worse.
That said, at least with mobile phone operators, there are deals to be had if you shop around. The $125/5 line plan that Cricket (AT&T's prepaid brand) has some limitations to it (video is throttled at 1.5 mbps, everything else throttled at 8mbps, no hotspot, deprioritized in congested areas, but otherwise unlimited), but for light usage, it's more than sufficient.
