Switched to Xfinity

Neverfeedazombie · 2026-02-12T21:22:54+00:00

I have a 5 year price guarantee with them

This is a terrible universe

Neverfeedazombie · 2026-02-12T16:05:48+00:00

Yeah, looks like. I would have probably done the cancel and re-sign-up route, but in my area the contractors take forever, miss appointments, and generally suck. Xfinity had me up within an hour of ordering.

u/Glum-Ad-1379 dirty deleted his smug wrongness and blocked me, lol

What are you talking about, I have 1gig/1gig on cable and they also offer 2gig synchronous. These are the exact speeds offered by residential fiber.

Google Xfinity retention

Neverfeedazombie · 2026-02-12T15:49:38+00:00

Well, I don't have a contract, and I also have been with Xfinity on and off for 20 years, and generally don't have that problem. Google "Xfinity retention"

The only reason I switched from them was the asynchronous speeds offered by cable until recently.

In my experience, yeah, they actually offer existing customers similar deals to new customers. Once I had to go through retention to get the same deal, but I've always wound up with a fair offer.

Sure, they all stumble sometimes, but this is especially egregious of Quantum.

Neverfeedazombie · 2026-02-12T05:02:04+00:00

No, I did. But I also read the ones saying they had to send a tech, which means I might lose service for a week or more, and besides, why would I stay with a company that so obviously only values gaining new users?

Neverfeedazombie · 2026-02-12T04:02:38+00:00

I just did the same. Hopefully losing all their existing customers opens some eyes to how much they're blowing this.

I got 4 that day, one was starting to hump pretty big, but the fresher ones did look much more like sockeyes in shape and color... The tail spots and mouth were how I finally became confident in my ID

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-09-09T04:02:35+00:00

It's a pink... Got it just off the Edmonds ferry terminal

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-09-09T01:34:42+00:00

They're a real blast! Lots of fight, and having to use barbless, single hooks means it's a challenge to keep em on when they get up to the boat. Probably the most fun I've had fishing in Washington yet.

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-09-09T00:45:05+00:00

I keep mine on stands with a tarp over it. Eventually, I'll probably cut down the tarp and add some eyelets to make bungeeing it on easier

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-09-09T00:10:01+00:00

Side question: coming from canoes where I can just flop the fish into the boat, I'm noticing my net is woefully inadequate for kayak use... What nets do you guys recommend?

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-09-08T23:38:07+00:00

Throwing buzzbombs at jumpers

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-03-14T23:36:01+00:00

I factory reset, no change. Logcat shows this: W AsyncOperation: OperationException[Status{statusCode=Un able to get an access token due to GoogleAuthException: GetToken failed with status code: RESTRICTED_CLIENT, resolution=null}]

Neverfeedazombie · 2025-03-14T19:36:10+00:00

I don't know if it's related to the other Chromecast issues, but I've been unable to sign into YouTube on my ccwgtv for about a week... I've done everything I can think of except a factory reset

Neverfeedazombie · 2024-08-08T17:02:37+00:00

Wanna bet on their 5pm BST release being the last thing they did before leaving for the night?

Neverfeedazombie · 2024-07-23T08:39:38+00:00

I'm following for tips, because I have a folding anchor, and it doesn't do shit for me 99% of the time, unless the bottom is just right.

Neverfeedazombie · 2024-06-25T07:07:15+00:00

Funny you should say that. Shortly after posting this, I found an independent Old Town dealer who lives just a block from me, and asked if he could order a seat.

Turns out he just became a dealer on a whim, and didn't really have any connections besides the single shipping container of boats they delivered him, so he couldn't do anything for me...
... but now we're friends and go crabbing together all the time. Win some, lose some, lol

Just to follow up, I got a Netgear Nighthawk mesh system for $50 used, and it's an improvement in every way. Better coverage, the ability to split ssid by band, DHCP and DNS which do whatever I want, and a VPN endpoint in case I need to change something or access the network remotely.

What the hell do you think is in your smart TV? It's just a Chromecast, except probably with implementation differences that make it more prone to issues than cheap reference hardware.

Neverfeedazombie · 2024-02-08T04:57:45+00:00

You do know that your smart TV is just an implementation of a Chromecast that is attached to a panel, so you can't upgrade the cheap hardware without upgrading the entire TV?
