lmao I'm doing some SD stuff and on my old 12gb Titan card it's absolutely bouncing off the meg limiter, I was halfway through an hours process when I opened a new Chrome tab with a bunch of videos on and the hardware acceleration made the SD process lose its place  - Chrome H/W acceleration is now switched off, but it put me in mind of early CD Burners where you set it going and then didn't even breathe heavy near the PC til it was finished.

until I had a smartphone, I had text messages disabled because I wasn't going to pay their ridiculous per-message fees and some people just didn't get it no matter how much you told them "STOP TEXTING ME STUPID BULLSHIT, EVERY MESSAGE YOU SEND COSTS ME MONEY". when I got a smartphone, I initially used google voice, because I could text over the data plan I was already paying for and gently caress paying extra for shoving a few bytes into the packets the phone was constantly sending and receiving anyways remember when the iPhone first came out and people were getting 300 page phone bills because it listed every single time the phone made a data connection? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdULhkh6yeA

American telcos love to charge extra for things (texts, calls, internet, etc) that literally cost them nothing. other countries aren’t exempt from this BS, what with their bandwidth caps and whatnot.

The greatest thing stebe ever did was tell the telcos that they had to offer internet if they wanted to sell the iphone or they could gently caress off. Pre-iphone, cellular internet was a real clusterfuck, at least in the US

jobs knowing full well he had the telcos by the nuts and refusing to let them slap their logo on the iphone remains one of his biggest accomplishments in the uk at least our mobile companies are relatively benign, probably because we’re a small enough country that a company can actually build its own infrastructure across the whole country and we don’t end up with just one provider in a region
