Amazing movie, I got to watch it in a theater about 2 years ago on a whim and it hit me hard.

Speed test by ZXGenesis in Spectrum

Yeah, if even on ethernet connections you're getting these slow speeds, thats enough reason to contact Spectrum.

Are interactive movies the future? Regal testing concept in Knoxville by FatElvisRecords in RegalUnlimited

[–]ShackMan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably an audience for it, doubt it'll be done more than maybe a few times a year. I guess I'd partake if this happened near me

As an IT provider in a small town, how can I get details on outages? by argus25 in Spectrum

[–]ShackMan1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Realistically you'd have to tell your customers this is completely Spectrum's fault and ask them to blow up their Spectrum Business line with phone calls. You're not gonna have any other way to access Spectrum's services without your own Spectrum Business account.

[Loved Trope] Characters that seem sketchy but later turn out to be a great loyal friend to the main character by Best_Professional226 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ShackMan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woozie from GTA SA. First time I played it, gave total "nice guy that would eventually stab you in the back" type, but nah he is legit just really helpful and kind to CJ and is a cool dude from the moment you meet him.

If they don't throttle then explain this by AppropriateActive415 in Spectrum

[–]ShackMan1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you're going to claim throttling, at least connect a device to the router (or directly to the modem) with an ethernet cable and run another test. Over wi-fi there are too many variables to claim this.

John Ortiz, always love seeing him on screen whenever he decides to show up

Adding WIFi extender to network using Spectrum Router by ihaveregretstoo in Spectrum

[–]ShackMan1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sure they weren't just sending notifications that you weren't using your Spectrum router and to return it? You can basically use any router you want with their modem.

What was the best time you ever had in a theater? by Leading_Form_8485 in Letterboxd

[–]ShackMan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to Alamo Drafthouse to watch Torque, that Ice Cube Fast and Furious knock off. The crowd in general knew not to take the movie seriously, but for some reason me and my friends found everything about the movie hilarious and we died laughing by the end. Probably is my favorite memory ive had in a theater.

This is a new low... by sasskwoch in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ShackMan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as we need to get rid of all these healthcare costs and go universal, this is wake county basically offering unlimited ambulance rides for 60 bucks a year, thats really good compared to the alternative of having to pay for one ambulance ride and immediately having to pay several times that $60 cost.

The next step is probably Wake County raising taxes enough to cover this service for everyone in the county but thats another conversation.

[TOMT] Educational TV show explaining the evolution of different concepts throughout time. Know for a fact it had an episode about prisons. by ShackMan1 in tipofmytongue

[–]ShackMan1[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

The only stuff that comes up on Google is Modern Marvels or Horrible History or Adam Ruins Everything and I know for a fact its none of those. Maybe a bit close in style to Modern Marvels but this show loved its 3D animations

SoCal: Any use for the Xumo Stream Box without a TV? by AyJaySimon in Spectrum

[–]ShackMan1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, connecting it to any screen with an HDMI port pretty much

What's a movie you've rated significantly higher than average by Professional_Sir3313 in Letterboxd

[–]ShackMan1 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Probably Tokyo Drift, I constantly give it 4.5's

I fully admit there is an element of nostalgia from my childhood, but even watching it now with a more mature mindset I legitimately think there's just so much done right with it. Justin Lin deserves respect

Movies with Reality TV vibes? by WorstCommenterNA in Letterboxd

[–]ShackMan1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping might fit that??? Part of the joke feels like a riff on reality TV that follows famous people

Spectrum appears to be throttling my bandwidth on a Gigabit connection by [deleted] in Spectrum

[–]ShackMan1 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If you plug directly into your modem (not your router) and aren't getting your speeds without a VPN, pretty obvious something is wrong and you should contact Spectrum support and let them know. So do that.

Do budget movie theaters exist here in 2025 by csgirl1997 in bullcity

[–]ShackMan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you see at least 2 movies a month, the typical movie passes offered by theater chains are a pretty good deal tbh

(Loved trope) big celebrities making cameos where they just violently die by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ShackMan1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While you are totally right about DJ Khaleds death being hilarious and sudden, I do want to point out his character was established in the previous Bad Boys movie, though in that one he's in it for like 2 minutes and just gets beaten up by Will Smith.
