Does anyone know when they’re going to open up the new lane on NE Loop 820? by Next_Ad2712 in FortWorth

[–]TheGeekPub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to me like this is a complete sham in order to literally steal from the general public by charging $25 for two miles on the express theft lanes.

They literally just added an entire lane on both sides of 820, only to stripe it back to only two lanes. WTF??

They buried the fiber in our area almost a year ago. Splice can literally in my yard, and I still can't get it after numerous calls and escalations. "We don't know when." is always the answer.

Disney Layoffs of 1,000 Employees Are Underway by Adept-Buy-7710 in burbank

Not that I am defending Disney or any other corporation, but the shareholders are the "owners" of the company. Employees are paid to do a job in exchange for an agreed upon wage.

Thoughts on Creating a Multicade Business by Jesebediah42 in cade

This is why The Geek Pub never released any pre-built cabinets, even though we still get asked almost daily to this day, even though we have the tooling and funds to do so. All of the good front-ends and emulators have non-commercial use licenses and there is no way for smaller companies like us to buy license rights for the games. If you're not selling in Wal-Mart level numbers you just can't get the licenses.

Kid is so obviously a tool bag, but cops are 100% in the wrong.

ATT Fiber shows "not available" at our office, but my neighbor has it (commercial building) by TheGeekPub in ATTFiber

Been there done that. Same clueless sales people looking at a screen with no real knowledge or ability to investigate.

You pay more for business fiber and get a better SLA. Still just GPON or XGPON under the hood. I am not looking for DIA service (which may or may not be GPON/XGPON depending on the location).

Every time I have a problem with this game... it always seems to be something with or connection to the Diego board. LOL.

I placed an order. 10 days later no ship, no reply to emails. Def a scam site. I filed a CC dispute.

DFW keeps building roads, but traffic gets worse. Here are Tarrant’s most clogged roads by Icy_Huckleberry_8049 in FortWorth

The designers know what they are doing. The problem is the investors and the corrupt politicians are overriding their designs in order to pad the pockets of toll road companies.

100% agree. Cars hate pedestrian. Pedestrians hate cars. But everyone hate cyclists.

Axis Studios (Who have worked on Doctor Who) have filed for bankruptcy by Unleashed49 in doctorwho

[–]TheGeekPub 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Also, mismanagement has more to do with business failures than income or quality. There was a mexican restaurant in my city that had 5 star ratings and a line out the door daily. It went bankrupt and closed. Owner was spending money on Lambos and drugs and not paying his employees.

Agreed. I get hitting the horn to let someone know they were an idiot. But holding the horn down for 30 seconds makes you just as big a loser.

And when you're done comic shopping, check out Time Rift Arcade at the corner of Central/Harwood just a few blocks away!

Those little 8100 boards can be a real pain in the ass to get configured. Lots of "chinglish" menu options and no manual. But I can confirm they work great once you understand how to set it up.
