    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

    Landlord is going to talk to the apartment owner, see about getting the ISP do redo the old coax, she said the ISP only wanted $60 to redo the coax inside the apartment to the cable box, Id said, Id gladly pay that
     
    Were paying $100 monthly includes the modem fee, for 1 Gig down and no data cap, reason im wanting the inside coax redone. The last six months wife and i were living on cell data, I like Verizon but they rape you on data and throttle ur unlimited data, were going to  reduces our cell data and hopefully get our phone bill cheaper....  We dont do cable TV, just stream Disney+/Hulu/Geo/ESPN and Netflix and Prime, nothing else....
     
    Been in our own place since November, starting over sucks, but the wife gets along with my parents and family, rent is so much cheaper down here in Arkansas vs Central Oregon. Wife and I are working at the same restaurant, new manger is far too green to be a GM, see how things go, unemployment is alot lower down here so finding jobs is tougher vs what Oregon was.  Prob time to change career paths lol, Ive been a cook for 20 years, and maybe its time go do something different lol because i just dont have the patient for incompetents, and teenages with no kitchen experience making more than me. Just had to rant, thx for listening lol evil smile....

    It's a great upgrade in speed. Probably nice to feel like you can have a family using Wifi at the same time without having Netflix look like an old worn out VHS tape.
     
    On a side note if you rent equipment from your ISP it's good to make sure that you check about every 6 months or at least once a year to make sure you have the latest. My parents had gone probably over 5 years and found out the modem they had as so far outdated the numbers looked like above. In fact they signed up for a faster speed tier trying to increase the speed only to find out it was the modem topping out. When that was replaced they got 4 times the speed.
