The lady from the LLS came over with a big fake check so we could take a picture with it

Still making incorrect assumptions, Dan. Even though I was no where close to the old 250gb limit (used up 132gb in the last 30 days), constantly streaming lectures which aren't even in HD seemed to set them off. I don't see any other reason as the hackintosh sees no torrent data. None of the other computers do either since there isn't any. Wish I had time to watch stuff that would need to be torrented =/ The seedbox was an unnecessary expense and was gotten rid of a long time ago.

Yup it was comcast. Got another wireless card. Got normal speeds. Put back the old card and went back down to 1 mbit. Texted a video of the two speeds to the local comcast technician yesterday at 3pm. Just got home and magically speeds are back to normal with the old wireless card. Fuckers were throttling the mac address.

Happy birthday Doug

Apartment community's new rules prohibit having a grill on the balcony Gave mine away yesterday to another med student. I haz a sad.

The download speeds were normal. FTP speeds only were getting throttled so reseting router didn't do anything. I called enough times to where the local head engineer gave me his cell phone number and told me to contact him directly. They said they did a whole lot of line tracing and some magical mumbo jumbo and randomly later that evening ftp speeds were the same as the speeds I was getting through my browser. A few months later the same thing happened. Went through the same nonsense. Got the same resolution. 12 hard drives are for 2 sets of redundant back ups. So really am just using 4 drives. The great hard drive crash of 2014 taught me to respect data back ups. It's a Hackintosh running Yosemite, Antonio.

Heh. It's got some 12 hard drives in it so its not being moved unless it needs to. It's a lot easier for it to stay here and me just get another wifi card. Might try setting up an hotspot through my phone and see if it pulls any better speeds.

Am trying to avoid doing this but will after my exam on Wednesday if I need to. Probably a lot easier to grab a cheap wifi card to see if the issue is on comcast's end and if they are indeed throttling the mac address of the desktop.

Speedtest on my iPhone, macbook air, Julie's macbook air and her iPhone all show 25 mbit downstream. Desktop shows ~1-3 mbit down. Does comcast see the mac address of the router only or do they see the mac address of all the devices connected to the router? My only guess is mac address throttling as they have throttled my connection twice in the past which I got them to fix after a lot of back and forth. But with that FTP speeds were low on all devices. Here its not just FTP speeds on the desktop but overall bandwidth it is seeing. FTP speeds on all other devices is normal. The desktop is not going over 3 mbit on speedtest.net for some reason. I've tried restarting everything and reseting all configs.

Can anyone think of a reason why a laptop would see the full bandwidth I am paying for (25 mbit) and all of a sudden the desktop is only seeing 3 mbit...no updates installed recently. No changes made to any software or hardware.

Tandoori chicken marinated for 6 days in a spice blend I came up with. Came out very good.

Nice acquisition Nate. Happy to report that I continue to love the Rotring 600 pen well past the honey moon period.

Happy Birthday Al.

Didn't know this. Thanks for the link.

Yeah but foxes are typically wild animals. I was under the assumption that Stretch did not live in the wilderness. So if it really were fox, it would be cool to see them in an urban environment. The fact that they were having sex doesn't really matter to me.

Would be cool/odd to see pictures of either. Not in a sexual way. Well maybe not about the latter guess perhaps.

Meh nm.

And by foxes, do you mean...actual foxes or the british slang for hot women? Either way, pics?

Way cool shirt.

Really didn't want to read that. But couldn't stop once I started lol.

And people wonder why I don't like Dan. Not being sarcastic when I say that.

Thank you sir.

Handed over a check for $5000 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and for a little over $7500 to the St. Baldrick's Foundation. Both organizations work with children with cancer and do some amazing work to make their lives better. The lab manual I had made for the Neuroanatomy Lab ended up being used as an optional supplement for the course. It will be used as the manual next year with a few more additions that I need to make this summer. It was well received enough that we decided to turn it into a fundraiser for the Photography Club. The students were allowed to donate whatever amount they wanted in exchange for the manual and we ended up getting donations from 322 of the 350 students that got the book which was absolutely unbelievable. That $5000 collected was donated to the LLS. As part of the Pediatric Club, we encouraged people to either shave their head or donated some of their hair to Locks of Love. One 9th grader (who attends an advanced high school attached to my university) surprised us all by raising $4100 alone. She agreed to shave her head if everyone in her class donated anything over $5. The message spread like wildfire and other classes and teachers contributed to the cause as well. We are very lucky to have had her present today. Even though she singlehandedly raised more than half the amount we donated, she was exceptionally humble and a pleasure to talk to. Going to be somewhat easy to fall asleep tonight. Hopefully they can find a way to fuck cancer up the ass. Here are some pictures I took at the event today if you wish to see - http://photographyinmedicine.blogspot.com/2014/11/our-community-efforts_4.html
