Oh goody... @verizonfios @VerizonSupport you realize some people with older SD boxes you told them to replace still are using TVs with only RF input? There was a reason to keep using the old DCT700 boxes. Now I'm having to help my parents figure out how to make it work...
Hey @breezeline seems customer service has gone even more downhill. Replacing my modem, I called and got the most unintelligible agent broken English with a microphone cutting in and out LOUD static and call center chatter in the background. Really hard to do anything!
FUCK YOU NORTON... Turning on the VPN broke connectivity I was using to restore theu my local network. Even after I said it was a home network. Why is your software so damned horrible?!
Once again, Norton screwing up my parents computer...seems this time its decided to quarantine and remove lots of MS Office documents that were copied from our Mac to our PC and possibly some other files that have broken the ability to log into their accounts. UGH!
And seems they were convinced to upgrade Save&Restore2 to 360 which apparently does not provide proper system backups so I can't even restore Windows from a previous backup from a couple months ago when it worked...
Then just to add insult to injury, Norton 360 has no "restore to original location" in quarantine. You can only do Delete/Extract/Send for analysis.
I guess I won't search for paint sprayers at @HomeDepot then...
So apparently @dominos now has a $20 minimum for delivery...guess they don't want our business now because we can't eat that much food before we'd have to throw it out getting dry and funky...
Ugh @amazon be like "sorry your order is going to be late it hasn't shipped" but also "nope can't cancel your order it's shipping soon"...so I guess they're gonna get to do a return then if it ends up ever arriving...
Yeah @PapaJohns I agree its a bit far away - maybe you could open a closer location? Maybe even one close enough to offer delivery?
Oh hey, Twitter's AI image generator is now free for everyone! Since they pushed it in my feed, I felt obligated to try it...
I don't understand why @McDonalds order kiosk doesn't sort the sizes in any sensible way. Trying to get a large I expected it to be the first or last choice and accidentally got a medium and couldn't figure out why...then realized its random not sorted on the menu?!
.@dominos Your site seems broken and won't tell me why. Every time I try and order there "seems to be a technical problem" but it won't tell me what. Can't do pay-in-store because it says the store requires pay online.
