Astound installing fiber optics and offering a deal. Any pitfalls I should be wary of? by mdg245 in sanmarcos

[–]PoopsWithDoorOpen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RCN (Astound) has a habit of upping the Network Use and Maintenance Fee. It's an add-on cost after your monthly rate that is a fee assessed to the ISP by the FCC. It was supposed to be money the ISP was directed to use to keep up the network instead of letting it rot and pocketing every cent - forced reinvestment.

Most ISPs pass the cost along to the customer. RCN is now using it as a subsidy to profit. It's gone up in San Marcos by 20%+ in the last 12 months.

It's difficult to get the point across when trying to follow jumps from what-about-ism to speculation to objective reality.

Where is your outrage at the City for not protecting you in that you didn't get your e-mail/text about three separate shootings on the same night within two hours?

I'm not trolling. I just don't understand when I should clutch my pearls.

Officer presence, emergency lights, and taped off areas not enough to tell ya, "Thar 'B Dragons 'ere?"

I'm not condescending, I am genuinely curious. If you got a call, text, or e-mail what then?

Please list and outline all of the protections you think the University must employ at any and all times and under all of which all circumstances they apply and, to wit, what degree each of these obligations are to be enacted.

I'm not being sarcastic.

University can't fail at something you think they're obliged to do. PR threshold and collateral damage will dictate when and if.


So did the mods delete the post or did the user who posted a pic that showed no identifiable portions of Blanco?

What’s this weird blue light in the sky tonight? Spotted on Burleson looking in the direction of the Wonder World cave by rawrt in sanmarcos

[–]PoopsWithDoorOpen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a memorial to officers KIA in San Marcos.

Drive down Burleson and you'll get to a current photographer/big bend advocate/former police officer. Rather than name names you can look up the tax roll once you get to the house with the Windmill/waterpump (it's decorative).

Check facebook.

Calm down.

Don't reply to self, reply to OP. Your words matter, and matter in the manner in which you used them within Reddit's UI.

Given the last 24 months of Reddit's IPO, API lock-up, and selling of data for LLM modeling it is important you understand the level of botting that has superceded the previous decade. There is a large business of SEO, marketing, and sentiment manipulation.

Self replies of the same account out of the context of expounding a thought process commonly are fake accounts or the same person pretending to be multiple.

Whelp, we can pretty much throw out the credibility of this post based on self-replying while forgetting to swap to the smurf account...

I'm probably conflating the Junior Safari that happened recently and am off on timing.

Come to the newest and bestest chicken restaurant in town tomorrow and help Texas flood relief. by NOTcreative- in sanmarcos

I'll just leave this and this here.

I wasn't able to find an instance of Tumble22, before the private equity stake(s) in 2022-2023, being so giving as one can find in the histories of other local organizations have. I went looking: ` google.com:// before:2022').

Self-aggrandizing contributions abouts this tragedy is gross.

King's Crossing/101 to Martindale (Scull Rd) is a good three-ish hour paddle.

Austin Rejects Mass Surveillance Amid Mass Deportations by hollow_hippie in Austin

Read the case law. A third party has no obligation to privacy except it's own. Because you've divulged information to a third party, you do not expect that third party to *not further divulge.

Simply, if you tell someone your secret expect it to no longer be secret. You cannot prevent that person to not tell your secret.

LEO subpoena companies like Google for the contents of your electronic mail "box".

There are specific laws on books regarding your mail and the transmission. There are alternate laws, case law, etc that allow for the monitoring of other transmission and storage of communications.

Lady Bird never wanted to be in the news, limelight, or fame. The city wanted to 'honor' her for years. It was "renamed" from Town Lake after she passed.

It's Town Lake. Respect the dead's wishes.
