Having a phone line which faintly picked up the local talk radio station. Both ironic and confusing.

i did some satellite smart card loading back in the day. we’d have to hotglue the telephone cord port shut because people would plug in the telephone and dtv would brick that card and soon after brick all cards loaded with that current crack.

the pirate smartcard we had was updated by typing in incredibly long number strings 4 at a time via the parental lock pin, it was a huge pain in the rear end

lol i pinged the county clerk about tracking down ownership of the grandparents' houses so i could make cash offers to current owners and they kinda passive-aggressively sighed over email and said 'i guess i'll look it up' then ghosted me. I'm pretty sure you could just find an empty house up there and squat for six months and it's legally yours now

I'm pretty sure you could just find an empty house up there and squat for six months and it's legally yours now what county/municipality is the house in? if you know the address/parcel number there’s a good chance they’ve got their assessing information online and searchable. odds are it’ll be hosted by BS&A

honestly LTE only wouldn't kill me for a couple months a year. Keep a NAS up there loaded the gently caress up with a ton of movies and shows, convince my boss that video-off Zooms are more ecologically friendly, spend a lot of time on the ham rigs chatting with locals. Could be a cool decompression summer routine.

Could be a cool decompression summer routine. you might be able to score an unlimited connection. i used to abuse the gently caress out of my work VZW account, pulling down like 500 gigs a month and this was almost ten years ago also wonder if it's close enough to somewhere to set up a point-to-point

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:maybe you could rig up a little tower to stick a microwave dish on? that requires a head-end, and as far as i can tell, there's just no bandwidth in the region. nobody's run fiber to any county central offices b/c they're not spending 79 million bucks to sell broadband to 1000 yokels The next town over (iron mountain) does have Charter cable modems, and it's on my radar, but prices are high there. a 2/1 bungalow is almost 50k there vs 35k in my hometown. loving real estate inflation !!!!

HyperCard ruled except for only supporting 512×342 black & white for way too long and for not having any way to make real Mac apps they should have also made a Pro version that was project-oriented, let you design windows and menus and stuff against an application framework and write HyperTalk against the Mac Toolbox itself, and save out an app if that was 1988-9 HyperCard, Visual Basic would have been DOA and Windows 3 would’ve gone nowhere
