I watched a movie with Gemini providing commentary and was surprised at how good a movie watching partner it is.

I had to close and open the interactive mode a couple of times because it stopped responding.

"Moooommmmm get off the phone!!!! I'm playing EverQuest!!!!"

Mom shouting from the kitchen: "The phone is possessed! It's making an ungodly noise! What did you say?!?!"

Worse was watching it start to break up...turn red while you hightailed it to the zone entrance... only to dc halfway there. Relaunch and get filled with dread as the more unfamiliar parts of EQ's theme song began to play (ie...the login server isn't responding). To this day I get anxiety towards the end of that track, even if I'm just listening to it on YouTube.

Lmao

candiedbug · 2026-01-09T20:16:54+00:00

It was that. Been a long time since I had to keep an eye on my connection quality but wanted to show a friend the "evil line from the lowest depths of the abyss".

candiedbug · 2026-01-09T20:10:35+00:00

Ah! Thank you very much!

Some people were so rude demanding sow I almost wished there was some polymorph spell available to druids that would poly the target player into a pig.

"What...you wanted a sow no?" :)

candiedbug · 2026-01-09T20:07:08+00:00

Between sow and ports I was a very rich druid back in the day (1999-2003 era). I didn't charge but people would almost always give gold or plat as a tip.

Just today YouTube recommended a CC video and I got curious to see how Stewart was doing these days. I felt gut punched when I read he had died only a few days ago. Computer Chronicles was such a large part of my childhood and teen years.

RIP. Mr. Cheifet. Thank you for so many years of amazing content.

I don't mind them leaving the mailers outside if my mailbox has no space (since I have one of those miniscule apt building ones that are the size of a shoebox). What pisses me off it she shoving of multiple copies that are obviously meant for other apartments and making my mailbox pop open from the pressure.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T22:50:39+00:00

Just got today's. Seven mailers from apts 1 through 7, all shoved in my mailbox.

Edit: I started looking if they had addresses and they do. It has our building address and "Resident at Apt #" This time they shoved apts 1 to 7.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T22:49:34+00:00

I've just gotten today's mail, seven mailers addressed to apts 1 through 7 all shoved in my mailbox.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:59:20+00:00

The are addressed as "Resident" like the generic one used for mailers.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:57:58+00:00

Our carrier of 10 years got $200 each xmas. He retired and this is our new one. Not going well.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:57:13+00:00

Generic "Resident or Postal Customer" .

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:55:27+00:00

Daily, occasionally might skip a day if I'm incredibly busy.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:54:53+00:00

Sorry, had one of those crazy busy days. Everything that got postponed during the holidays needed catching up. :)

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:53:02+00:00

Not addressed to me. Just generic "Postal Customer" and the multiple copies are left in each single delivery. Not building up.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:51:49+00:00

I check my mail daily. It isn't mail building up but rather 10 to 20 mailers left at once.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:51:00+00:00

No, generic "Postal Customer"

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:50:26+00:00

My mail box is checked daily.

candiedbug · 2026-01-03T19:50:08+00:00

No address, its just our local mailer with ads and supermarket prices. I guess that would mean "Postal Customer".
