fuelmyfire · 05-27-2003, 04:12 PM

why is it then when i need to find out the actress from a television commerical that only aired for a week in 1994, i CAN....

....but when i need to find a simple fucking Old English font, that doesn't cost $30.00, i CAN'T!!!!!

i just needed to vent.
i'll go right back to loving the internet.

I'm in tfp's IRC channel, and I seem to get disconnected every few minutes. That's a major fucking pain.

fuelmyfire · 05-27-2003, 04:19 PM

vent with me!!! all of you!!!
bring forth your internet woes!!!!

DEI37 · 05-27-2003, 05:40 PM

I hate being able to only download at 125KBps. It needs to be faster. Like say, 1GB/sec. That would be nice.

NoSoup · 05-27-2003, 08:35 PM

At this point, I would like to point out that all of you are posting your "Hate the internet" comments on...
(drumroll please)...

The Internet

Radio Monk33 · 05-27-2003, 09:44 PM

Fucking pop-up ads...and pop-up ads with video and sound. And popups that spawn more popups when you close them...and try to infect your computer...

Ah well, I guess thats what keeps the net free.

XenuHubbard · 05-27-2003, 09:45 PM

I hate the huge amount of bandwidth I've wasted on KaZaa files NOT NAMED CORRECTLY.

Sticky · 05-28-2003, 06:24 AM

<b>XenuHubbard</b>, I know what you mean. I downloaded a a song that was labelled Led Zeppelin yet it was nothing even close to Led Zeppelin, it was the Animals.

What are people thinking?
I don't believe that this has to do with the internet though, I think that this is just a result of people being idiots sometimes. It was obviously not Led Zeppelin, just change the info on the song before posting it.

Empty_One · 06-07-2003, 11:13 PM

Do a search for David Allan Coe on kazaa. You'll find every single dirty country song in the world. 20% of them will actually be David Allan Coe

Stiltzkin · 06-07-2003, 11:37 PM

Internet... uh. Well, the internet is my friend *pets computer* Always has been, always will be

Dick enlargement spam , i hate those.

Fremen · 06-08-2003, 02:08 AM

I'll let you know when I've found something I actually hate.
So far, it's pretty fan-fucking-tastic!

I've been on a year.
The only complaint I have is, I'm on dial-up, other than that,

ARRH · 06-10-2003, 10:31 PM

I hate the fact that the best internet connection in New Zealand is a 128kbs ADSL account, with a monthly 5GB limit!!! I pay about NZ$80,- per month. If I want a faster connection, the monthy limit goes down to either 1GB, or 500MB!!! I can't believe how behind they are here with internet services! Like now, 3 days after my new monthly limit started, a fresh 5GB, I have already used more then 80% of it! It pisses me off every single time. And ontop of that, when I first got the connection a bit more then a year ago, there was no monthly limit!

I know my problem isn't the internet, but still. It pisses me off!

Use Opera as your browser. Much, much, much better than IE or NS, mouse gestures are superb, and built in pop-up killing - they never even appear! It has an option to simply allow only popups you requested. Although for some hair-brianed reason it's not turned on by default.
Oh, and BTW, I can PM you a reg code if you really want, although the browser is free anyway if you don't mind one ad in the top bar.
Seriously - I love Opera. I'd never go back to crappy microshite browsers now!

MrFlux · 06-17-2003, 06:10 PM

ir hax yuo all with my ubar 1337 128kbit adsl with 5gb data limit!

cowudders14 · 07-11-2003, 10:20 AM

Sites, usually warez sites, that claim the link is one thing and take you somewhere completely different, and quite often it's somewhere with loads of pop-ups too (although they no longer bother me - see above!)

Also, thought I had to revive this thread - it's fun!

Spinach_Indeed · 07-11-2003, 10:32 AM

Yes, I'm back home for a month or two this summer, and we have Dial up. It's like sucking up a lake through a straw.

Conclamo Ludus · 07-11-2003, 11:21 AM

These are all great reasons why I never touch the internet. Its only for geeks and pedophiles anyway...or so I hear.

Pheatius · 07-11-2003, 12:31 PM

A lot of teenagers that have a tiny bit of competency surfing the net think that their generation invented it and is theirs...

They also wouldn't know a real hacker if one slapped them in the head and said...'I'm a real Hacker, you VB script-writing diaper wetter' ...

btw - not a hacker...nor do I know one or have ever been associated with anyone claiming to be a hacker Mr FBI scanning software sir... lol

cowudders14 · 07-11-2003, 10:37 PM

I've got a friend who works for a high-tec computer security consultancy. He was telling me that he had a proud manager come in one day and tell them that their servers were un-hackable. He asked for the company's web address. About two hours later he gave this manager his user ID, password, a list of all the users on the system, and some random sensitive files from different parts of his network. The manager then hired the company. Now that's hacking!!!
