GDT: Canes @ Devils Game 3: (3:30PM on TBS)

[AD Skinner]

Good day to get all the yard work done and watch the game on the porch with an ice cold beer.

That's the beginning to my country song. That's all I have so far.

He’s strawng

I've admitted that I don't know how the rest of the Canes playoffs will go. But I am pretty sure that the Canes aren't actually as good as they looked the last 2 games. And that they're better than they seemed the last couple weeks of the season.

Don’t forget to do all of this in your blue jeans.

Internet still out. Will be watching on my phone in the driveway again.

Have you considered turning your router off and back on again?

Doh! I forgot to do that!

The story: internet spotty for months, doesn’t completely go out but ~5x per day slows to a crawl for about a minute, just enough to knock everyone off their video calls at work. Neighborhood consensus is that this isn’t just an AD problem it’s community-wide.

AD calls Spectrum enough that they finally come out and replace the main cables in the ground in the neighborhood. The minute they start digging I lose internet completely. Unfortunately consensus among the neighbors is that THIS part IS just an AD problem - the Spectrum guy later confirmed that the digging crew must’ve accidentally hit the line coming into my house.

This was Friday at 9am. Spectrum said they’d have someone to fix the problem on Monday at 1pm… awesome. At least theoretically the ongoing problems will be solved now that a new line has been dropped down. Depending on how quickly the problem is resolved on Monday, I may be asking for a credit on my next invoice just on principle. 3.5 days without internet due to an entirely Spectrum-made outage.

tl;dr: Spectrum completely broke my internet during their operation intended to make it less crappy, and couldn’t bother to send a guy out to fix it for another 3 days even though it was their fault to begin with.

Is it fiber? Accidental fiber cuts are a far too common occurrence. I work at a major university and we've had at least 3 and I've only been here 6 years. One of them brought the network down for multiple hours. Pretty big deal when the modern college relies on the network and internet for virtually every thing.

Can’t take anything for granted here in Game 3. Play with the same fire and urgency as if we were down 0-2 and fighting for our survival. No let-up and no mercy. If NJ’s slogan this year is to “Raise Hell” then I think we should indeed give it to them in every way!

Unfortunately no. Just an honest mistake and then an incompetent response to said mistake.

Sounds familiar. There's a crew in the area that likes to dig up internet, power, and water lines. Then stand around leaning on their shovels watching the geysers and sparkler shows. The guys that paint the marking lines either are incompetent or these guys are intentionally digging where they are not supposed to.

Can you even fix a fibre? Doesn't it need to be replaced from the previous junction to the next?

Fusion splicer and a piece of fiber. I do this kind of work.

One of these?

Ah, the circle of thread.

 

[Summer Rose]

This is a friendly reminder to pace myself today.

 

[Unhinged Finn]

This series reminds me of a South Park episode including satan. Possibly there's also a couple of Canadians smelling their own farts on tv, Kenny McRaanta (always ded) and referee Barbrady telling there's nothing to see here.

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

Game on the flight out, game on the way back, clearly the NHL needs to contact me directly about scheduling.

 

[CanesUltimate11]

In this life, you don't have to prove nothin' to nobody but yourself. And after what you've gone through, if you haven't done that by now, it ain't gonna never happen.

 

[hblueridgegal]

Expecting some push back today...could be a gritty one..

go Canes!
