Time to kick the skank ass ho to the curb.

After calling multiple times on my connection issues, no one returned my call. They told me i was going to get a dispatch, never called. fuck you too then.

My new internet is getting installed today. ADSL2+yo.

We’re going to make do with no TV and see if we can function without reality TV and G4 for a month.

However i’ve been researching legit tv progs. Here’s what i like in order from least to best.

5. TidalTV

The closest thing to actual TV online. Has a few channels, i hope they get more.

4. Hulu

http://www.paulyanez.com/labs/mymediaplayer/ — this makes hulu better.

3.  VeohTV

Incorporates lots of hulu videos with tons of online vids and a good search. The best thing about this prog is the interface.

2. Netflix Watch Now

If you have a subscription, theres tons of tv in their watch now sections. Quality is awesome.

1. Slingbox

Well it’s just tv. So its a complete replacement. Granted i’m just stealing my dad’s TV, its the best. Quality is decent, damn stable. Why isn’t there a port of this to XBMC / PS3 yet?

The whole point of this is to not watch tv and do stuff like work out, so we’ll see. There’s really nothing thats totally blew my mind yet.

*and there is always nbc.com / abc.com for that sitcom kinda stuff.

So i woke up this morning and my internet was out.

As someone who has spent years working ISP help desk and managing them, this is the worst way to start off a day. I may as well woke up with dog shit on my chest.

Checked all the normal things, reset everything, the tv worked so i figured they either found me torrenting again, or they found my alliance network. Sigh.

“What seems to be the problem today?”
