mong summer dream (now featuring added winter, also spring)

trayce we're gonna be at on-trend bar 'southpaw' on gertrude st from 7.30ish if u feelin it - nothin too fancy, depends on how appealing watching us get tres bladdered is i guess!

Thanks duder! I would attend, but I'll be honest and say this weather isnt makin me feel partyin :( Have several for me tho!

I have the house to myself this eve so I'm looking fwd to hogging the couch, smoking inside and watchin' shitty TV tbqh.

feel like my 3am buying of bacon from 7-eleven was a success on friday nite. how everyone else's weekend pan out??

ran into QGP in the queue at Woolies yesterday

lol h. you disappeared on fri nite! how did you pull up?

I spent a large chunk o'the weekend playing video games and baking bread from scratch, how excitement.

what color did u paint the town

soz jim i looked round 4 u but couldn't find! was ok once i had coffee and bacon/eggs

think we painted the town ...whatever colour that weird egg and cognac thing i drank was

good lord

hennessy, port, one (1) whole egg shaken wit coffee liqueur, finished w/ a lil nutmeg

and applied liberally

it felt very "big baller eatin steaks everyday"

my addled brain can't quite remember what it was. something about st gertrude? sir something?

the g3rtrud3 st fl!p, apparently

ah yes

what up fux

stressssss

school?

work

last day before leave, trying to finish a load of work before i go, failing

Work stress here, too, have several kinda mission critical (to them) customers who have vbeen screaming blue murder at me about internet LIFE OR DEATH OMG aaaand now I have to tell them T3lstra have completely rejected the relocation order because the buildin, 1 block up the road from their old bldg, can only get 4mb speed instead of 10. FFS. When is the NBN getting finished already. I am so sick of this mess of patchy shit.

...sorry only about 5% of that made sense, I imagine.

so sick of this mess of apache shit

I am so sick of this mess of patchy shit.

i said this to myself when going into a cubicle in the gents earlier

loool @ h dn

have decided to mine van she lols in the dns for the forseeable. have a TDF-themed one up the sleeve for when that kicks off

xxposts omg AA is it time for your LA holiday? (not to compound stress, lol)

NBN is fucked. Only coolsie (presumably Labor haven) suburbs are even planned at all at this stage.

they went straight from fucnswick to north shitzroy and skipped my area entirely. not that i give one (1) fuck as i am not planning to use it anyway

I mustardmit I don't really understand what it's all about.

hmmm the rollout map openly contradicts this xpost

isn't it like, superfast pirating software and por... er, music and work for no money down?

dunno about no money down, the numbers circulating a while back were not inconsiderable amounts of $

i made a handy graem in case anyone needs to break up with someone soon

It will cost a lot for the rollout of the infrastructure, but Im sure the electricity grid and rail network did, as well. Thats the level this is at - its not just some random new internet, its a whole new base infrastructure for what we'll run all of our phone and 'net services over when its done. Copper is shitty and breaks easily - fibre is pretty much endlessly upgradeable. It'll mean fast data which can have great practical applications for education, for remote off-site medical analysis (see a GP without having to actually go to one!), on-demand delivery of TV and movies, and most of all, 3829472857 times more reliable internet services for all of us. We're livin in the fucking dark ages data-wise, I dont understand why anyone would be agin' it.

As to why its only rolled out in Brunswick and Ballarat is the other area, Brunny was the trial area, a lot of the rest of melb is rolling out next year, but there's been some recent grumblings from some of the contractors cos the deployment's been taking too long which costs them money while they wait.

xxxxxxxp YES

And the costs will be comparable to current internet planz, you'd just go buy a link at whatev speed and data u want from the same ISPs you do now (iinet, node etc etc).

a lot of the rest of melb is rolling out next year,

^ According to this we can not even expect work to begin in (y)our (my folks, adam, you) area within three years, and that's assuming it's on time and underbudget like every other government project.

Sorry, prob. belongs on zeitgeist thread

Yeah some areas its 12 months and some 3 years. Melb's actually one of the last places getting rollout, for some reason. Maybe they just figure we've already mostly got dece DSL, so we can wait (areas that have fuckall will get NBN quicker which is why Tassie was first)

haha yeah sorry dont start me on this topic I wont shut up and ill bore you all to death!

I actually considered working for NBNco but I'm wary about a change in govt fucking up the career path
