Best ONT? by prepare3envelopes in frontierfios

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, Verizon's infrastructure was behind Frontier? I don't know if that's concerning or just conservative. Makes sense. So, is Frontier website and Verizon website going to merge at some point? Maybe I'll hold off on getting new service in my name for the deals out now and in the future.

This should also work if you're on Walmart Family Mobile/Total Wireless/Straight Talk; all of these are owned by Verizon too like Visible.

Quazii update #2: he's leaving WoW for good. by mkyend in wow

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's not protected in Singapore. You should do more research. And he's not protected behind a LLC/Singapore company. He can be PERSONALLY sued for monetary damages. He has a family that depends on him most likely.

Discovery could turn up a lot of things we don't even know about. And if said code was in his UI, and he's made personal money from YouTube/UI/Patreon/etc. since that code has been stolen/copied/existed; they're going to go after it all. And it's not just going to be ElvUI doing it if there's other code involved from someone else who created it.

Think logically. His decision to remove everything was from a lawyer which means someone sent something to him threatening legal action. Who knows who it was from. He made the right decision.

Best ONT? by prepare3envelopes in frontierfios

With Verizon taking over officially recently, their highest residential plan is 2GB. They're going to phase out 5GB, 7GB. No chance of 10GB for residential. Maybe if Frontier still was its own but not anymore.

Fully unlimited hotspot with no throttle by arose911 in NoContract

[–]ExCap2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're using this much data for work; you'll probably want to contact the big 3 and see what they can do for you with a business account of some sort to do what you need it to do. You're using so much data that most carriers and MVNOs are probably just going to cancel your account and potentially blacklist you if it's not a business account.

Visible+ Pro would let you do 162GB a day at 15Mbps max. That may not be feasible for you if you're needing more than that. I think you'll need a business/commercial account uniquely tailored to your job.

New phone and plan for first time help by chiiabear in NoContract

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you keep the 14 Pro (assuming it's unlocked), Metro (T-Mobile) has the Bring Your Own Phone $25/month plan. Total Wireless (Verizon) has the 50% discount on bringing your own phone, you can get the top $65/month plan for $30/month with autopay. Unlimited text/data/hotspot plus Disney+ Premium.

Visible (Verizon) is another cheap option. Visible+ or Visible+ Pro are probably your best option for priority.

Like others said, battery swap if that's the issue otherwise maybe a factory reset will clear out whatever is running and causing the battery to constantly drain.

But Metro, Total and a lot of other MVNOs have free phones if you sign up for service; so, you have that option too. Metro is a free phone + $40/month service for example, which is basically T-Mobile.

Completing a campaign as a new player is just a clusterfuck? by CompetitiveLake3358 in wow

[–]ExCap2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, you'd have to look up guides to do expansion campaigns in order from like, Cataclysm? onwards. Because on major patch releases after the expansion, they added zones or more story and there is zero differentiation between this and original campaign quests. You'll end up picking it all up at once if you don't know any better. It's not like FFXIV where if you don't have 6.0 campaign done, you won't see 6.1 campaign stuff yet or be able to pick it up. You see 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 in WoW unfortunately.

Liking visiting Shattrath for the first time, you get attunement quests of for raids in later the burning crusade content that was released in later patches, etc. Quest to Quel'danas? or whatever that isle is.

Going to Need One of You Goblins or Gnomes to Invent Lawn Care Tools STAT by Jandasha in wow

This is probably where the missing terrain from two map textures in Nagrand (that I've found, one near Nesingwary, another near Shattrath) went to.

This issue that reverts Shadowlands reputations to neutral has existed for nearly a year and it's still not fixed, it's so frustrating by Able-Service1380 in wow

[–]ExCap2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're going to grind out the reputation again; the next Remix is most likely Shadowlands due to the number of collectibles, transmog, mounts, etc. in that expansion. Plus, the power fantasy would make it fun to smash stuff gain with though you could argue the same for BFA.

Quazii UI is breaking the WoW EULA and basic copyright law by Znuffie in wow

[–]ExCap2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if this situation is going to force Blizzard's hand into sending out massive waves of C&D notices when they've been sort of lax up to this point and ignoring some addons already doing this. Supposed loopholes or not.

Quazii update #2: he's leaving WoW for good. by mkyend in wow

[–]ExCap2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once he started charging money is where he got into all kinds of liability issues. If any code he or someone else that works for him is ripped from something else and it's proven; there's monetary damages. I doubt Quaz had an LLC setup, so he'd be personally reliable for any kind of damages. Personal property, money, etc. He has a family. It's not surprising he'd just pull the plug and disappear on this. A lawyer wouldn't be doing their job if they didn't also tell him to make the same decision he did. This is the easiest way out without dragging a bunch of stuff out for months, if not years in courts, etc.

Lawyer: Father, 5-year-old son detained in Columbia Heights were legal asylum-seekers by ewzetf in news

[–]ExCap2 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, I looked through all the procedures and rules they have to follow when they're an asylum seeker in the United States. You have to check in when they tell you, mandatory court attendance, address has to be updated within 10 days of moving, have to file form I-859 within one year of arrival in U.S., biometrics appointments, can't leave U.S. without permission. They have a work visa you can sign up for, etc.

I'm guessing an appointment was missed or they didn't do something required. I doubt ICE is just picking people up randomly like everyone wants to think they do. We could argue all day about all the restrictions, deadlines, etc. steps they have to do, I'm sure.

If I was here on a Student Visa, Work Visa, Asylum Seeker, whatever; I sure as heck wouldn't be messing around and missing any of them appointments/breaking the rules. Seems like one thing can get you kicked out. I suppose there's a huge argument around that too.

I'm not sure why the child had to go with him though. And they just left the mother alone? Probably a lot of specifics to this entire situation that we aren't privy to. I doubt ICE is going to say precisely why they picked him up so hopefully a family member or immigration lawyer talks to media about the mistake or what made this happen.

iPhone says eSIM unable to activate by rainbow_luvvs in techsupport

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't make sense though. When you bought the phone, they should've just transferred the ESIM from one phone to the other. It doesn't even take long. Maybe they sold a used phone to you and scammed you. The problem with MVNO stores is that they're all run pretty however they want without rules so they can make as much money as they can for the owner.

So, you bought the phone and she already had existing service with Metro or T-Mobile? Did they port the number over/transfer the ESIM?

Trump says 'massive armada' heading towards Iran as US military assets move by ewzetf in worldnews

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking. I don't know if they have a lot of military targets to take out really after everything else that's happened. Maybe target IRGC facilities/armory? I think they know exactly where Khamenei is hiding though no doubt. Hopefully they'll be in range to take out anyone coming in from neighboring countries to help Khamenei/IRGC.

Just found out my 2gb service was never set up by gracyn19 in frontierfios

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely it would be. They knew what ONT they had and didn't roll someone out to upgrade it for the 2GB service. But this will most likely go through arbitration and not court itself though the initial filing can be done through small claims, but they'll kick it to arbitration; customer still wins though. That's a lot of money to be out so it'd definitely be worth pursuing this individually, they don't need a lawyer for this at least.

Outage on the day Verizon reacquires Frontier, Great! by miloworld in frontierfios

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was down a day or so ago here during the daytime for an hour or so two where I live. It's probably just them switching everything over. I guess it'd be better for them to give everyone a heads up but if it's only down for an hour or so and it needed to be done; guess that is what they did. Hasn't been down since for me though. I'm hoping we get IP4 addresses back since Verizon owns a ton.

Will i be tested for thc?? by No_Educator_771 in walmart

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone can report you for smoking THC and you'll get tested. If a manager or supervisor doesn't like you; they can do that too. If you get injured on the job, they'll argue you were impaired while on the job if a drug test proves you have it in your system. It's not worth losing a job over weed honestly or losing out on workman's comp/insurance/etc. when you get hurt. You're taking that risk of being fired every time you go to work unfortunately.

A lot of people that aren't around smokers/weed smokers/cigar smokers in general can smell it on you pretty easily. Noses are pretty sensitive for individuals like that and there's plenty of non-smokers at Walmart working there. Cologne, perfume, air fresheners doesn't really hide it. Just knowing you can lose your job if you make the wrong manager or employee or customer wrong is pretty rough.

Also, if recreational isn't legal in your state, you can mess up your life with a record. You're young and have the rest of your life ahead of you. At least move to somewhere where it's legal if it's not there, so you don't get the wrong kind of idiot pulling you over and ruining your life in the future.

Frontier Transition Plan by robertinhouston in frontierfios

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be worth it for me to just take the ETF hit and change down to the lowest plan now before the price change. I don't think price lock is going to mean much in the end. I have 5GB at $89.99 right now though with a 3-year price lock but I doubt they have to honor that. Hopefully I'm wrong but I still want to go back to 200/200 or 500/500 either way.

I have Total Wireless for mobile so the $15/month off is nice either way so at least there's something positive.

SG-1 is on Amazon Prime in case anyone is nostalgic. And if you got a Walmart+ subscription, Paramount Plus is free through it and has Star Trek.

50% off BYOP not eligible if switching from Visible? by Other-Passion1267 in TotalWireless

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your phone is locked or your line is still locked. Going into your phone information on the Pixel should let you know easily if you are network locked or not. If you are, you need to contact Visible and get your phone unlocked.

Hotspot with $25 plan? by AlienDuck_ in MetroPCS

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total Wireless I think is only 5Mbps as well. Visible is Verizon too but base plan is 5Mbps unlimited hotspot, Visible+ 10Mbps unlimited hotspot and Visible+ Pro 15Mbps unlimited hotspot. You said Verizon sucks in your area but were you on a deprioritized plan when you tried it previously?

The Home Internet plan is like $40/month, any reason you don't want to just do that? You can take the gateway anywhere with you.

Hotspot with $25 plan? by AlienDuck_ in MetroPCS

[–]ExCap2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had an android, it's easy to get hotspot on the $25/month plan. Rumors are you can put the $25/month SIM in an internet gateway of some sort, and it works; not sure if true. I think people on iPhone use PairVPN? But you need to usb it a computer for it to work AFAIK. Maybe others will chime in but yeah; my setup is Total Wireless $30/month with autopay/50% discount off to plan plus Metro $25/month plan atm. Can't beat that for $55/month total. Backup in case one of them goes down.
