My mom needs the house phone

I think the wire in the back of my modem leading to the router was a little loose, pushed it in all the way and it instantly got better. Nah they even charge for the game show channel now
-
It's wired. I was getting 18ish. 18ish doesn't make it substantially better anyway, how much are your folks paying for the connection anyway? Portugal might be ass fuck town in many ways, but at least back home basic service is a guaranteed 30mb download. I want my 120mb connection back ffs. We pay $170 or so for internet, phone, and television. Yeah it's severely overpriced and shitty slow but what else are we gonna do?

I had wireless internet, bought a new router (Apple Airport Extreme) then wired my connection to my computer. It worked great, amazing response times, no buffering to the point I could play 4K videos on YouTube without it stopping. Now suddenly, within the last week, my internet has slowed. Pictures take longer to load, and sometimes watching 1080p videos on YouTube it'll stop to buffer, I never had this issue before. I was averaging 18mpbs up 5mpbs down with 11 ping or so, now I just tested it and it's at 8.34mpbs up and 0.96mpbs down with ping at 47. Last week it went as low as 4mpbs down with ping well above 70. Pls help.

Fosters to Australia is Bud Light to America if I recall correctly.

Best way to ruin a classic imo

So we haven't settled on any car yet, still looking around but we like the 2014/2014 Imapala among other cars, but we also came across this brand new 2014 Charger SXT recently.

Went ahead and did a quick "plastidip" in Photoshop on my stock wheels, looks good enough to me.

Musical Instruments (Post pics of your gear)

Not really, it is lower than the steel but it sounds good enough to me. -

I personally prefer the steel string, the nylon is more soothing though, less rugged, Easier to play too on the fingers until the calluses build. -

[ ]not rekt [x]rekt Also, here's my old ass Ibanez, I've got two more in storage. First in storage is a cherry red Epiphone, second is some free Acoustic Electric Nylon guitar I got, third pic is what it looks like. -
He could just be that PR rep for twitter

I'd be on board too, I could help run the business side of things a few years down the road, it'd be a cool concept of forum members coming together you know?

I think indie studios and independent studios are making a big rise now though, and GTA is such a unique style in its own that someone will eventually create a new game that people will love, as much as it may suck to lose GTA, but I doubt that'll happened. Another thing though, just look at the gear that Rockstar sells now... Anyway, I always said I wanted a police sandbox, it's finally happening and a game called Police 10-13 is coming out next year. So there's a whole new generation of gaming to come anyway.

Money be what money is man. I will now refrain from doing that though, sorry mayne.

Link. No, I'm not finding it myself. Rockstar has been saying for years they wouldn't do a GTA movie, but they certainly wouldn't need Activision for anything if they have indeed changed their minds. A GTA movie is a terrible idea, no matter who has the rights, but that's beside the point. There's nothing worthwhile Activision could do for them that they couldn't ultimately do on their own. All they have to offer is money, just like EA, and Rockstar makes plenty on their own. http://www.breathecast.com/articles/grand-theft-auto-movie-rumors-rockstar-in-talks-for-film-adaptation-weighs-pros-cons-19190/ http://www.bidnessetc.com/24886-taketwo-stock-rises-on-speculation-of-gta-movie-and-expected-activision-dea/ After the $2 billion in revenue, I doubt they'd pass up the chance at a few more hundred million in revenue for a movie, especially if done right.

The share price also went up after talks of a GTA movie, and Dan Houser believes the movie would be a step in the right direction as well. Activision wants to create a movie studio to take advantage of its intellectual property rights on its franchises. The acquisition of Take-Two Interactive will provide access to IP rights of some of the most widely acknowledged video games, which would help Activision even further. If it owned IP rights to things like Red Dead, Max Payne, and Borderlands as well as GTA, it would certainly launch Activision in a new direction, and I'm sure the Houser brothers would have some sort of rights to those films, as authors do when their books become movies. If Activision plays this out right, the Housers would be seeing a lot more money coming in, as well as Activision and its studios, and with the recent success of GTA I don't see why it wouldn't surpass something like the Need for Speed movie, which had over $200 million in revenue. In the end Take Two's biggest thing in mind is money, and if the price is right, they would certainly sell it off. For now it's just wait and see. Activision's share price has gone down a bit since the market closed Friday, but Take Two has remained pretty steady. Activision also owns Bungie.

Either get yourself one of these, as they seem to have better quality, and in my opinion look better. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/CD-Receivers/FH-X700BT I have this one cause I bought it months ago haven't had it installed yet though, likely this weekend. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/CD-Receivers/FH-X720BT This is the updated model of above

I kinda wish they sold the Ford Falcon Ute MKII outside of Australia.

"On compacted snow surfaces in particular, they offer more space to form sipe edges, fill deeper tire tread grooves with snow, and increase friction between the rubber and snow. The handling properties of a car fitted with wider winter tires are also enhanced on compacted snow surfaces. Wide-base tires even offer advantages in deep snow: Their cornering stability is better than that of narrower tires and their braking distances are shorter. Narrower tires only have the advantage when it comes to traction in deep snow." - From a Continental press release entitled "Warm Slippers for the Colder Season". I won't be taking my Mustang off the road No more Crown Vic Ace?
