Well good morning ladies and gentle men. I'll never understand you lot and your coffee.
Also we've been moved? Hmmm....
Anyway, time for some nutrition and a boiling hot shower.
Oh Zimmy, what do you think of my new avatar? As close as I could get to the old one haha. I changed the shirt though. One white for being the little miner he is, and this is black well for...possibly making a habit of blowing things up ^_^

So I suppose this is Sen's alt?
Pretty close to the other one, I for one try to make my alts look as different as possible, each one has it's very own, personal colour scheme.
But the picture itself is rock solid, thumbs up from Zimmie's alt :)
You are correct, although I rarely have alts look too different. Especially if they're all human.
I use to have a female amarr alt, though I missed my old look. Given my main has a pitiful amount of SP, I should easily catch up and surpass him.
Cerebral Accelerator's are rather nice, shall be pairing it with +3's, and then shortly after that getting some +4's. Going to try and get the most out of that boost.

People are still working at that time  Dont you just love couriers? We used to have a wonderful time with the parcel force guys down our end back when i was in the UK. Raining? Cba to get out of the van. Windy? Cba to get out of the van. Snowy? Cba to get out of the van. Too hot? Cba to get out of the van. Too cold? Cba to get out of the van. Perfect day? Eh its too nice I cba to get out of the van.
Sounds like here alright.
Since I'm in Ireland everything you listed is a normal day except hot and perfect.
It's an international package that's registered, but the driver failed to put down the Irish tracking number on my slip, and that's needed to schedule a redelivery. I just love how they don't use the original tracking number and replace it with their own.
It's going to be fun waiting to see if they attempt to redeliver tomorrow after paying for it. |

That would be fine, my significant otter has her degree in spanish and geography, while doing a post grad in Psychology.
It's rather odd in Ireland, in some places Psychology is part of arts and in others science. All depends on where you specialize in the end though.

Morning Sam, via drip? That does not sounds good or healthy.
Graygor the climate here has changed a lot in those five years. Every winter so far thousands of homes piping freezes and bursts. They've had to re dig up decade old water lines and put them in deeper as well to prevent them from bursting from the cold. We're talking of the soil freezing half a metre down in recent winters.
Some rivers were frozen for the first time in nearly 100 hundred years.
Plus, I'm originally from South Africa, and the cold gets a bit nippy.
ALSO! I just got my package. I walked up to the chap as soon as he got out of the van. The bugger had a missed delivery slip already in his hands and it looked to be filled out already!

@ Gray, Four flights? Seriously? damn. We shouldnt be discussing how best to dispose of our Blackberries.
Alcohol is removed from the bloodstream by the liver at a relatively constant rate of 15 mg% (.015%) every hour or 1 drink per hour.
So I'd say if you weren't drunk you should be ok after 12 hours since your last drink.

I'm usually similar, but I wanted these ones which are technically also core ones, just so I can mission asap and get some money. After today's queue is done the main ones such as Electronics, Engineering, Mechanics, Gunnery, Navigation and spaceship command are going to be focused on to lvl 4 a tleast then the others to lvl 3.
At the end of 30 -35 days I should have all the needed ones to 5, others to 4 and most to 3. By day 40 I should have easily caught up to my old char Sen's combat ability by specialising and I'll have decent drone skills for once

Sorry mate can't agree.
Sure with maxed learning skills you also learned skills a slightly faster rate than now, but the rest is just silly. Limiting or removing those makes no sense, they're core game mechanics now, and even at the start some where.
I like difficult games myself, but preventing anyone new from starting is silly. There's a difference between difficulty and a severe entry barrier that'll deter even determined gamers.
It severely limits a new players experience and that's not what should be happening, especially if they're on a free trial. Games should be difficult but fun form the get go, they need to hook in players.
Otherwise stating you need to Pay and play for months just to even get to basics is ridiculous and a bad model. |

So far today has kicked me in the head Sam.
The college next door is having a graduation today and tomorrow and there are peasants parking in my housing's private parking area.
I can't wait to watch them get clamped and get forced to pay that Gé¼150 unclamping fee. That'll teach them to wake me up!
I'm also in the mood for coffee strangely. |

Lol peasants, dont mix with the common folk eh?
but watching them get mad about the parking clamp will be hilarious.
I always like watching them try and argue with the guy clamping them, trying to make excuses. All while their care is parked right in front of a big sign saying private property, clamping in action. |

I'm not a fan of sex-scenes in movie/tv or books; if you need sex to get the point across then you fail.
I agree about getting the point across,but I don't care too much. There's a point where it's just too much though.
If you think that, don't watch the Series any further, it get's more and more. |

Sadly in my area CSM was the natural progression from Science in Computing, as the place actually dropped their Advanced Networking, and advanced Computer sections. Kind of wondering if I shouldn't have gone into games development here. The amount of support they get, along with the pure software and AI development people is unreal. For games they get a new "gaming" system yearly, plus their own labs. The programmers get their own systems, and a personal free laptop, plus a nice fancy glass walled lab.
We get..the old scrapped networking lab, which is hidden away in the back of the old building. Underneath the science labs. The fasted machine in the lab is an AMD X2 4600 powered system. ( we also only have access 4 hours a week )
The courses in Ireland, especially at IT's are directly influenced by the company investors, so my career course got butchered and had HR, Business, Strategic Management, Accounting, Project Management, and other other crap added; such as the main projects for "IT Solutions for a better world". Aka make a financially sound business plan, that can be used world wide to ethically and environmentally make it all better.
The only real computing we do is some Linux work, Advanced Database systems, some multimedia and Emerging Technologies.
Now if I could get a grant and a laptop I'd at least be able to plug it into the lab network and get all the software and visualization onto it. |

For some it probably is, outside of their relatives 
Have they never been allowed outside of their houses? That's so odd.
Then again after spending all of primary school in a mixed school I thought all irish boys my age were idiots when we moved to Ireland and I was enrolled in a Catholic all boys school.

HAHA! It's not really Ireland, it's Apple and other international companies and stores operating here.
Although even then it's all a rip-off here in Ireland compared to prices in the states and mainland Europe.
These discounts are also badly needed, take away expenses and bills from net income and Ireland is in a terrible shape. Yet the prices of goods and services have continued to increase. |

I like the rugged look though and they have stuck very close to that. I'm looking forward to the as well.
They look like war ships from a people bathed in war. It was time they left behind their makeshift, retrofitted, flying shooting scrap and finally developed true war ships. |

YAY 700...
I've been doing that since a bug hit my institution last month. Extra Vit C in the morning and before bed. Hmm, not happy.
Also Bo'? What's your income tax in the US?
Apple, made a fortune over seas, having only paid 2% tax. It's the same for all those big companies. I say make them pay a fair share. Their profit margins are massive, it's not like they'd go bust, they'd most likely just lay people off to protect profit margins as many already do.
EDIT: Extra extra, delivery from EVE store has arrived. Package is wet from the rain but here. |

Yes ma dear, there are problems with our big corporations.
But what peeps forget is that America is mostly built on small business, not huge corporations. Small business is dying. People are going out of business and laying off.
Our top tax is near 40%. Frankly, taxing the rich does not make the poor more wealthy in this country.
Our unemployment rate is up 7.9%, total federal debt up 53%, 6.4 million more people in poverty since he took office, and our debt up 81%. These percentages are all from factcheck.org
Most countries are small business.
The big questions is does a company still making millions count as a small business?
Also top tax? In Ireland they say the standard tax starts at 20%, it's 41% for everyone I know. Considering the cost of living here an income under 30k a year is easily just above poverty level for making due. Meaning you have sweet f-all left after bills and expenses; not including basics such as food.
Many companies move here because of low taxes for them, yet the unemployment rate is at ~15%. Our national debt is over 85% for GDP, and over 105% for GNP http://www.financedublin.com/debtclock.php
Everyone is doing badly.
Obama has 4 years for improve it all, if not then people will get rid of him. Romney just had even worse ideas, especially when looked at by the rest of the world.

Yes, yes, I know it's your country and it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks. It's just the majority of the world also supports Obama. We all just hope he's not going to jump on the "Attack Iran" train. There have been enough wars bankrupting the world. |

Well apparently I have received a large order of Educational Books, 16 of them apparently. Even though order only contains 4 items. It seems some has found out that Ireland doesn't charge import duty, tax and vat on educational books.

I believe the ones in caldari space give bpc's that require Talocan Technology to make, and Gallente have Yan Jung related bpc's that require that tech skill to produce. You can turn a pretty profit if you have those skills, so I recommend it. Think you can only run them once though...
Sounds interesting. This character is still getting a lot of basic skills up, so I'll start with some Minmatar Republic lvl 1's |

Has to do with a fleet of buses in a city, in an attempt to increase quality of service to the customer, and allowing faster travel time on the fly, by skipping areas of severe traffic congestion without missing bus stops; possibly relaying live bus information to selected customer services in an attempt; to show the bus' travel live, the stops it'll be be at, if there are any delays, and allowing customers unfamiliar with the city to pick a destination and have the live info of the bus they need to get and it's available stops in relation to their current area. Along with some engine changes to help with fuel costs, carbon emissions and reducing maintenance costs.
Effectively making the bus service more reliable, and on time, while saving costs and being more environmentally friendly in the consumption of fossil fuels. Which if successful, should theoretically become an incentive to rely more on cheap public transport in the city, reducing the need for cars, which cause even more traffic congestion and carbon emissions. Couple that with the public rent a Bike to work scheme( also available to travel in the city), and electric trams; is all to make the city cleaner of air pollution, traffic congestion and boost income of the public transport system. Therefore allowing the service to be improved upon further.
Hmm, I think that can sum it up without getting technical.

Yeah, Dublin is a mess and once you go to it's outskirts or towns around it you can sometimes end up waiting at a bus stop for 30+ minutes without knowing what's going on. Usually caused by traffic problems, accidents or just bus engine problems. Letting the customer know what's going on makes everything better, along with the other improvements.
The main argument I've had against it is " well so far everyone has gotten on fine, so why bother? And how is giving a better customer service going to make or save money?"

Sam, I love the duvet roll/sausage.
I've put some food on since I realised I haven't really eaten in ages and my lunch wasn't really a lunch.
It's astounding how hard it is to get information on company fuel usage, engine size, national pollution and others. Gotta love Irish business sense, we are losing customers, so increase all public transport fares. While not really improving customer service or enticing them back. The increase in rail service is 9.8%. Bloody madness, and they wonder why there's so much traffic congestion in cities and people not using public transport.
But, yeah. I need some time off. We didn't even get any days off on or around Halloween. Haven't even been able to visit the lady friend in 5 weeks now. I'm constantly busy, along with picking up the slack for my partners. I think I need to start buying weekly scratch cards. If I win, I'm out of here  |

Thanks for the advice, this the first time I've been allowed to even apply for a grant since I only became a naturalized citizen in August.
I asked at the institution advice centre and they don't really know 
I printed out the appeals form and it does have a section to write what I want, so I'll ask for them to give the reasons as to why I was denied a maintenance grant. |

Very true!
Shortly after moving to Ireland I walked into a Game store and left with the Baldur's Gate pc game series for Gé¼10. It blew my mind! I loved it.
I have a soft spot for decent story driven RPG's, and Neverwinter Night's online community was essentially a mini MMO, it was amazing! |

Morning all, not a good morning. Barely slept.
Woke up and rushed to get to a lecture.... the bugger cancelled it and I had read the email Monday and Yesterday and I still forgot.
HOLY MOLY! I just won a Promo blink as I logged on, 500 mill for just using a token |

You can't convert Blink Credit into ISK for you character. But I'll use and it any ships I win are going straight to my hanger. Then I'll just play some Promo Blinks again when they pop up.
That way I just use the token I have and the credit they gave me, along with some extra ships. |

Good morning.
Don't you just hate it when you get a new t shirt, go to try it on for the first time and it feels like it's going to cut off your arms at the arm pit?
The world needs to standardise their bloody clothing sizes. I hate buying a large and it's a tent, then buy a XXL from Pull and Bear and it's a bloody medium really, or buying a bunch of large from the EVE store and they're too big compared to Large in Ireland and other US retailers.
So I got medium and they're slicing off my arm pits. NO FAIR! At least they were only like ~Gé¼3 a t shirt.

They bloody better loot what they salvage, otherwise what's the point? You'd still have to get close to them. I'd also like the Rupture to get a nice new model, much like the Stabber.

I've spent my morning fixing more Chinese broken English for reports. It's amazing how they can artificially boost their word count simply by reusing the same words over and over in sentences, to the point nothing makes sense. Yet to them it's 100% clear and concise. |

Also eve isn't blocked on the wifi for my phone and this library is amazingly noisy.
Although watching groups of people is funny. There's a large table covered in young ladies, they all look like they're ready for bed. There'l are the geeky gaming chaps sitting in a circle with their laptops in a lan, and all sorts of others.
Then there are the distracting ladies going about.
Between all the chatting and constant typing,( the library pc's all have mechanical keyboards) I can't concentrate in the slightest.
Hmm, just saw some emo/hipster ladies go by. One with what looks like a 17" MacBook Pro. It's nearly as big as she is hahaha.

Watch them all! Forfeit sleep.
Surprisingly the majority of the computing department and lecturers use Mac's here. They can use windows as Linux as well of course.
There are barely any laptops in this college really. Most are acer's and the tiniest amount might be macs. I've seen about 5 in the college in my years here. Two belong to my networking lecturer.
It's so noisy! I just realised, women far outnumber men here.

They're speaking Chinese, my Chinese classmates are the same. They think they're talking normally or whispering but it sounds like they're almost yelling.

I'm rather tight with money as I don't have much, alcohol is very expensive and does the body no good really. I also can't really drink it anymore just like caffeine because of an injury I had. Inflaming a damaged sciatic nerve and all that.
I'd still go out with friends, although I've been so busy I haven't been out or done anything with a friend in over a month.
Like today I've been busy studying for a Theory exam on advanced database systems, after that I've an HR presentation, Monday I have to give a demo on advanced database systems. The day after that I have a lab report due, that Thursday is a multimedia report and so on. Every week looks like that really, plus I have that big research project hanging over me. I also have a strategic management project due in 3 weeks worth 50% of my final grade in the subject. It's on a company called intercity paints. Yeah, we have to do it on a paint company. Not even from an IT perspective, just business strategy . It's all so boring |

Got myself a Wonka bar, and16 small packs of candy sticks. It's freezing outside though, easily around 2 or 3 degrees.
I also played around with my first ever MacBook in the local reseller. I actually really like it, it has the best trackpad and keyboard I've ever used on a laptop. Pity about the price tags though. :P |

It's hardly super high res, it's pretty standard really, along with 2560x1600.
It makes productivity so much better, I can't deal with 19" monitors in my labs. I prefer a single large one. |

I've never had an ipod, and yes iTunes is rubbish. I'm still a firm user of winamp. I only use iTunes for some backups and playlists on my phone really. The phone itself is good and does exactly what I need it to. I do sometimes miss the docs app on my old BlackBerry but when I finally get myself a laptop that won't matter.
I find linux annoying and I've been using it for four years now. It can be improved upon so much more if developers started to put their software on it. Valve have taken a nice step, and I do like OpenGL as well. |

I'm also back it seems, the departments here are useless at disseminating information.
At any rate a class mate and myself were just at the careers meeting and it seems not one of our supervisors, instructors or lecturers give a damn about our course being relevant towards getting on track with a decent career.
That's good to know, along with the vast majority of graduate programs ending this month. These companies won't even deal with students directly and our department doesn't give a damn... I am not happy right now.
Only bit of good news is that Intel is looking around at our institution so I can try and grab their attention. |

That's a bloody bargain here in Ireland, if I got to Dublin I have to pay anywhere from 70c to Gé¼1 for a single little box of them.

Ireland rode along with the Celtic Tiger and money from EU like nothing could ever go wrong.
It's such a mess of an island now.
To get a full student grand your family needs to earn under 35k a year. Yet at 35k a year, and single you'll barely be able to live, especially if you live either in a city or near enough to commute, let alone support a family.
Worst is they only work on gross income, so after the government takes it's share you're left with 59% of your income, provided you're not paying into any pensions plans or anything.
Take off your essentials and bills, and good luck trying to get by.
I don't know how my folks have managed to not kill me by now, considering what a massive drain on funds I am, especially since by Irish law I wasn't allowed to actually properly work until in September. |

Thing is Ken, it's essentially all my course is teaching us. We don't do much computing any more.
The course is Computer Systems Management: http://www.itcarlow.ie/study-at-itc/science/computing-networking/cw248.htm
All modules listed are Mandatory, and since the second year we drastically veered away from computing. What we do computing wise is mostly theory, and this is the first year we've even touched Linux properly.
These are the only hands on modules we have currently Network Systems Management ( mostly theory and case studies, with one lab a week to use linux) Advanced Database Systems ( 50% theory and practicals split between Oracle, MySQL and SQL Server 2008)
I am a sad Panda, one of the previous students I know barely missed out on her First class honours and now works as a waitress at a Hotel  |

Hmm, that's interesting. When I look at even graduate positions lately, I feel severely under qualified for any of it.
Some even list Laving Certificate points as a minimum requirement. The LC being the final exam in secondary/high school.
I did terribly in school, but year on year I'm improving at college, seems school just wasn't really for me. Yet a lot of graduate places here in Ireland want LC points as a minimum cut off for applications so they'll auto reject them if you don't have them.
I really want to work in computing though, but it seems I'm fairly stuck with a jack of all trades master of non skill set at the moment. There's never a lack of programmer or software engineers, pity I'm next to useless when it comes to those disciplines 
I'll just have to do as well as I can and still apply for those positions and others and hope for the best. |

@Al Going to school for anything IT related these days is a joke. I went 2 years just to get a certificate and all they taught me was everything I already knew fro wikipedia. The whole managment side of things is just them trying to produce more friendlier techs for the work environment but at the cost of actually learning anything that is useful.
Oh that's certainly true. It's really off putting and I've hated the past two years of it all. Having to do so much business related stuff is a mess, I spent a long time doing just computing and suddenly being expected to do 4th year honours HRM, business and strategic management is a joke.
Even our main research project is technically just a big business project.
So after this year I'll have a High Certificate in Science in Computing, my BSc Honours in Computer Systems Management and another certification in Six Sigma. Yet if they plonked me in a normal systems administration role, they'd have to provide quite a bit of training first.
We keep getting told that this is all to prepare us for a management role in 3-5 years time form our graduation. Well we need to get a job and work up to those years first surely.

Finishing my final year in Bsc Honours degree for Computer Systems Management, and I already have a Higher Certificate in Science in Computing.
@Val, well I guess you're going to have to help set me up after I graduate then 
I already have a normal 3 year Bsc in Computer Systems Management, but I went and enrolled into the add-on 4th year honours after my previous graduation. |

Anything from IT support in-house to clients, helping with developer lifecycle management, storage, networking and database technology.
It's a pretty broad graduate program and they let you work in all the different sections to see where you excel and what you do well in.
Which is really what I need, my college course covers such a wide array of skills from telephone tech support, project management, accounting to information systems engineering and development procedures.
In layman's terms, I'm a jack of all trades, but master of none.
Also when it comes to programming I'm terrible at it. I never went to the software development stream in college as it was my worst module by far.
It's actually extremely hard to find any places that don't just want people that do programming, even other IT roles mostly just want coders of some type. The companies always claim they higher more than just that, and it's true, but the amount of people with skills like me as graduates or starters are nearly insignificant. Which makes excelling in my studies so critical, there aren't many of us and it's an Employers market when it comes to people with my broad skills in IT management. |

Yeah we get to work with a lot of things, even had to set up a basic training course for a software package way back in my 2nd year, and lots more.
The main problem we have is we're not a T shaped person. AKA someone with not only a broad set of skills, but also a deep specialisation in a particular field.
I'm finding it all very difficult, even my careers department know what we can really do. We've all been told that we''re being trained for roles as Managers for the 3-5 years into the future. Our problem is getting a jobs that allows us to progress for those 3-5 years to get into those roles.
There are very few graduate roles that allow people to explore different routes to see where we can excel. Ireland is apparently becoming the Cloud development and HQ of the world, but the majority of people working in it aren't Irish graduates or people.
Kinda puts a damper on your prospects as well when you hear about former graduates in your program that did extremely well in college, but work as Waitresses in hotels or works in a chilling plant for food storage.
Then of course there are the people that did the course as mature students, people with vast amounts of experience already and just adding more qualification. Three of them are working at IBM right now, 2 of them I knew briefly.
My biggest problem is easily that I have no real work experience at all. Until August of this year I was here as a South African international student, and my Visa didn't allow me to do Work placement/ Internships or get a decent part-time job in a relevant field.
So I'm essentially clean with just my qualifications to stand on.
Sorry for the mini walls of text, I have to run to a lecture on Emerging Tech as well now. See you all in over an hour. |

Oh I'm putting myself out there all right, every place in Ireland I can find that's got a relevant graduate or intern program is being applied to.
BT are odd though, they want UCAS points? In a college graduate program, seems really weird. They want 280 points plus a minimum of a 2:2 Masters or higher. Or 320 points and a 2:1 BSc Honours.
Pretty odd asking for school points I think. My Chinese classmates don't have a clue about it or how their high school stuff translates.
There's so many darn software developer/engineering posts out there it's madness! It rather disheartening to constantly see that though. |

I have yes, the problem is my naturalisation is on the condition of living and working in Ireland. It's usually so for at least a few years, before I can start living else where. Even then I have to actively be in the country at least once a year then for over a month.
It hasn't stopped me applying anyway. Most the companies I apply to aren't just based in Ireland, just so I can try and get a position elsewhere. |

Thanks! I'll apply to them as well. AOL was giving a talk at out college but when we went onto their site, it's all based in the US and wanted graduates with 2-3 years professional experience. Rather annoying when that happens 
Pity Microsoft don't work directly with our institution any more, well they do, but only for games development. They use to work closely with our course as well a few years go.
Applied there as well. Even went to Apple. They don't really have a graduate scheme, but I still made a profile and submitted all my details for them.

I have not played BF though so I can't really say. I really liked Dust myself only because I felt it took a lot more skill and coordination than just building up your kill to death ratio. The purpose of each match is to win because it is crucial to the overall universe in EVE than just boosting your rank.
I liked the old COD games, I stopped playing after MW though, the last BF one I enjoyed was Bad Company 2, but it was a shadow off BF 2, and I never bothered with BF3 because of Origin.
Only Halo I ever owned was Halo 1 on the PC. I don't like playing on consoles unless it's a fighting game or something like Final Fantasy and the like. Last console I owned was the PS2.
I'd have liked if Dust was cross platform, but that would automatically give PC gamers a massive advantage. |

A lot of potential employers are just sacks. Ageism while technically illegal, is common practice, the gov't and the benefits agencies know that it happens but won't do anything about it, or support those who are willing to try. Big money seems to equal immunity from pretty much everything.
True, then even if you had a solid case and won, would you still want to work there in the end?
One thing that really annoys me is being sent in a loop by companies.
SAP gave a big spiel about how they higher hundreds of Irish graduates and don't only high Programmers in IT. Yet they have exactly 0 Graduate or intern positions. So I email them and get a lovely automated response email saying I should look on their site for positions. Which is what I did, and that's why I emailed them asking for information on if they are planing on such position for 2013.
Ugh, made my candidate profile and uploaded everything there, so they may look and see if they have something for me. |

Nope it's all business, we also have to do HR and Industrial relations, along with accounting modules as well.
I just found out today the worst student in the class already finished the bloody thing, no one knows how he managed that. The chinese students also insist I go home and relax tonight instead of working. |

I started getting back into GW2. And I'm quickly remembering why I stopped playing in the first place. Really wish I never bought into the hype. It's probably one of the greatest con-jobs in the history of the genre. But enough of my rant. back to my original question ^^
I completely skipped it, after so many fun times and adventures, amazing memories with friends and over 3500 hours of GW 1, I just knew deep down GW2 would disappoint. Glad I did from what I heard.
That's disappointing, oh well, I'll just deal with it .

You wan those places? You can have them, my world will only be powered by reusable and nuclear power. All military funding will be cut by 50% and that money given to scientific and medical research.
The bankers will be executed that stole money and worked to crash the economy to make profit. The same for CEO's that don't help their employees.
All those food stores in the EU and US that get dumped by super markets will be flash frozen where possible and sent to third world countries, their entire infrastructures will also be rebuilt to current standards by the countries that exploited them in the past.
After which those country leaders will be executed and my government will take complete control. Pharmaceutical companies will have to relinquish all patents and medicine made free of charge along with all those other health and public services.

Much better performance as well. http://www.opendns.com/opendns-ip-addressesJust edit your network DNS settings on your router or computer to what is on the right hand side of that page I linked and it should work fine. Google has some as well but I've been using OpenDNS for years now. There is step by step instructions on their site. Make sure you write down the original DNS IP Addresses just in case you have to put them back for any reason. They might have opendns and google dns services blocked but highly unlikely. As far as connection speeds, 100mbit down and I think like 10 or 15 mbit up. I'm not sure on the up as I've never maxed it out. Edit: I always forget others are not as technical savvy as I or my friends.  People think I'm talking down to them, at least here in the states, when I start rambling off on stuff like this and then I look really confused when I realize they have no idea what I am talking about. To be intelligent and preceived as condescending or to look dumb and be socially accepted. What a dillema?
Thanks mate.
Sad you tell you this it's not just the ISP, the networking guys for the landlord are using OpenDNS to block stuff as well, we also don't have any access to routers or hardware at all.
We just have a good ole rj45 jack in the wall to connect to. Each room has assigned IP's as well so they monitor it all it seems.
Bastards!

Oh, leave your IP address set to dynamic and don't put one in. You should only have to edit the DNS addresses. If, you have to change your ip address, use this format. xxx.xxx.xxx.253 (x = whatever your apartments use for those spots on that network. if 253 doesn't work, keep going down until one does work. for subnet, write down whatever was already there or just go with default. 255.255.255.0 default gateway should be whatever the IP address is for the router or whatver your connected to. Its usually xxx.xxx.xxx.1 or 254... usually. I wish there was a faster way we can talk. Either way, remember to write down or save your settings in case none of this works and you have to put everything back.
Sorted thanks!
I can't change the IP sadly, but the google DNS did the job. I've noticed a lot of throttling on the connection speed though, it;s going from 0.50Mb - ~8Mb constantly, that's mostly like the ISP.
If the worst comes it'll mostly likely be a firewall, she had that last year and it ****** up everything. We couldn't even connect to google.
Right now it blocks everything mentioning the word P0rn, which is hilarious since there are so many news sites and articles that mention it.
It blocked Ars Technica for 5 months once because an article had the word in a title. |

I actually like my landlord, the problem stems from her not knowing anything computer related, and most people don't.
I miss my parent's low speed fibre connection. It's only ~40Mb on average but it never dropped below 35Mb with phone and free EU calls for Gé¼50.
While the land lord is using an Eircom business line that's 12Mb and pays around the same. |

Val as a banker you'd say the same, their current net assets is = to their current liabilities and the guy is writing off around 25% of this debtors as bad debts. He has no sales staff, no customer support, no computing system, stock is not kept on file the guy memorizes it all. His plant manager has no experience and use to be a delivery man for one of his clients.
He has no set product prices and desperately tries to negotiate on price, then he lets all clients buy stock on credit and only tries and collects said credit after 30-60 days; yet his material suppliers demand cash on delivery. Which means he's always short on funds and this causes delays in production and delivery.
The building he's renting as a plant is also close to being listed as condemned...
It's a joke, the customers and suppliers have all the power and he thinks his problems are only temporary because of the recession.
The CEO spends over half a day on the phone trying to make sales and handling customer support, he use to have people do it for him, but he didn't trust them apparently. He also doesn't have a secretary and handles all the incoming mail and calls himself.... |

All his employees are also part-time, he has no full-time staff. Yet wonders why orders are always delayed. He's also the company accountant, and refused to pay for an audit because it would cost to much.
He says all the books are in order, yet clients are afraid this not the case and have lost a lot of faith in the company. They don't to deal them any more for plenty of reasons. They see him negotiating on prices are desperate ploy to get sales. He has no short term strategy or long term one, and he's now talking of getting a loan to pay off his debts, thinking it's going to fix everything....
Ugh, what a fool! You know he's full of it when he thinks it'll all just turn around. He has zero cash in the company, none. |

I've and exam and a lab report due tomorrow, Tuesday two more lab reports, Wednesday an exam, and Thursday is the big Strategic analysis case study. That case study alone is worth 50% of the module's end of year grade. It's a massive factor in if I not only pass the course but get a decent average in the end.
It's crunch time now and I haven't even had a chance to look at the exam related stuff, they're only a combined 17.5% of my final module grades compared to the reports.
After this week I'll only have some research to do over the December holidays. |

I've plenty of Chinese in my course as well, one English mature student, 1 from Bangladesh, and the rest are Irish as far as I know. The Chinese in this course are super lazy, and it's very frustrating. These lab reports are supposed to just be each person's part put together and printed. Yet I'm always stuck going through it all, correcting it all, filling in parts, and doing the comparisons, conclusions, along with my own lab work and getting it to blend together as one single report.
For the strategic and HR stuff I've got a serious case of writers block. I haven't made too much progress on those. |

Sadly not, everything is scheduled, over 40 hours of classes a week, not including lab times, I'm responsible for constantly trying to get work out of my partners, and constantly have to redo most of it. Class attendance is taken daily, and if you do not have a letter/certificate from a medical professional you automatically start losing points off of your final grade. Miss a certain amount and you're barred from sitting any exams, which means you fail automatically
I haven't been out in 3 years, or ever been to a party during the college year, never mind I don't even have the money for it.

It'll be my first time "out" this and last year, I need my geek fix and some relaxation time so YEAH! I hope it's amazing. First I'm going to shell out enough money for a two person dinner at EddieRocket's/ Gormet Burger Kitchen just to get a ticket and some snacks  |

Remember to get the extended warrenty then. Sure its not possible to add a few more components to your desktop to extend the lifetime?
I've an amazing desktop, but it doesn't allow me to take placements in other countries and even in the city, I can't travel with it. Or do work away from my house.
Also with a laptop the college allows me to plug it into my lab network and get access to the enterprise DBMS's and other software.
At home I can only download the free or lite versions which lack the features we need. I've also been informed by several of the companies I've applied to for placements and graduate positions that I "Need" OS X experience at least to be considered for the role, along with Windows and Linux.
I've gotten on well the past 5 yeas with a desktop, but having our lab times so limited a laptop is essential to get the work done as well. I just don't like how extended warranties cost so much in Ireland.
At any rate it seems Amazon is the best place to purchase it, in retail outlets in Ireland you get ripped off badly, sometimes by hundreds of euros. It's just the cheapest sellers on Amazon don't ship to Ireland, so I have to pay a tad extra to go through them directly. |

It's true that adding to an existing system is so much cheaper, pity it won't help my situation.
I am looking to even sell my beloved GTX 680 to help get some extra money. It will most likely be a difference in getting a decent one or the one I really want. I've already decided on the system for me, especially since I walk everywhere and don't drive what so ever.

I am indeed.
I can get a discount yes, it''s 14%. Even then it's nearly Gé¼200 more expensive than getting one from Amazon in the UK and shipping it here.
Although in most cases Amazon and other retailers aren't allowed to ship pc's or pc parts to Ireland, so once I have the money I'll try Amazon first and the Apple store after that if they're not allowed to.

I wouldnt say Tequila slammers is the best way to cure a hangover, but staying drunk would mean no more hangovers.....then white lightning and brown paper bags
False! It just means you're causing more damage, the consumption of more alcohol causes your body to break down down ethanol again and not try and process the other alcohols and impurities which are the cause of your problem.
It's better to flush them out and replenish vital salts and get proteins for the repair process.
Take off work and go see it Val, I hope it's amazing! I got suckered into buy the snacks instead of the tickets.. I'm going to be broke after today. |

And why are you selling it piece by piece and not a complete system? Also, I offer you some er... *shoves hand into pocket* Some pocket lint, some wrigleys sugar free gum and about a tenner in sterling.
It's impossible to sell a complete system second hand to the Irish, even if you list it as a complete package they only make offers on certain parts and always want to split it.
So I might as well only sell the big stuff that'll get the most money. I have an old 19" monitor and graphics card to keep the desktop running, and my old man is already saying he wants it haha.
I've a few friends asking people they know if any one is interested as well.

That's okay I guess, I hope they don't just go by scales and also take out the callipers to measure body fat before and after and go by that as well.
I mean if you lean out, by gaining some lean muscle and losing a lot of fat, you'd still not lose that much weight overall. Due to lean muscle weighing a lot more.
You'd also be far healthier in that regard.

I've already done that, and still do.
I have all of Star Trek and the movies, all Star Wars, and just need all the Hobbit with my LOTR. I like it all. |

My graphics card is dying so I get an excuse to get a new one.
690 GTX here i come.
I never did like the dual GPU cards, they relay on drivers too much and end up not being supported as well as others.
I'm surprised how well my old GTX 470 is running everything since I took out the GTX 680. Just shows most things are console ports in the end. |

I myself got a Copperhead when it came out. It died to early though.
I want a mouse just for the laptop, wireless of course, so I need to get some nice rechargeable batteries as well. My desktop mouse is a Steelseries Xai. Which is great, small and light. I tend to use my fingers to move the mouse, rather than my full hand and wrist. |

Razer has just gotten overly expensive as well for my tastes, especially for some devices. Other than that they're still good.
I want a wireless mouse for my laptop and I'll most likely go for a Magic Mouse, I need to wait for the college to sort out their discount schemes.

Haha, today is a lovely shade of gray in the sky. As most days, it's just gray again.
I couldn't handle real heat any more. I laugh when family in SA complain about their freezing winters and 20 degrees for it. |

DPD are always good and call me before a delivery to see if I'm home, if not I ask them to drop it at the University and they do it without problems.
If only UPS which you pay a small fortune for, would also do that.
Hmm, I've yet to see those. You'll have to let us know what Ted is like.

Like I said, I haven't had the time to play and I don't have enough isk for plex at the moment. I've got a big deliverable due monday for my research project. I'll probably have to pay for the plex for real money, which is something I'd have preferred to avoid.
I'll certainly try and get on here more for chats and random posts though, I'm just getting distracted by work too much for my liking. |
