I have a story. Bear with me.
'er indoors's macbook just fell off our wireless network. I could not get it to work. I tried everything I could think of but fail fail fail. Eventually I hassled Twitter for a solution. Loads of people tried to help but nothing worked. In the end I somehow fixed it by changing the router's bandwidth setting from 20 MHz to 40 MHz, and for some reason it changed the channel from 12 to 1 without asking me. So I tweeted the thing about it changing from channel 12 to channel 1 without asking me, and G4bby Mi11g4te of "y0u're t3rrible muri3l" fame replied with "soory that was me". I have no fucking idea what that was.

Loll wtf! I always get amused when ppl go OMG FAMOUSE PERSONG TWEETED ME IN REPLY... sorry Im not taking the piss or nothin :)
BTW you probably had a frequency interference, at a guess, but I know sfa abuot wifi, I mean I know how to set it up and make it work, but what causes it to fail, beyond "there are 3 brick walls in the way you dick" is not my purview.

Yeah, I don't ever talk about contact with omgfamous people (you know my attitude to the whole fame/debasement thing), it was just literally the last thing I expected at that point, roughly on par with a ribenaberry coming through the chimney and doing the charleston.
Re the interference, there's stuff in the same room that didn't miss a beat. This one MBA suddenly refused to even display the SSID after working for several months.

Eh, computer equipment is just fuckin fussy, really. We all the time get ppl ringing up going BUT IT WAS WORKING UP TIL NOW as if that guarantees something will work forever without fail, and come on, thats not how anything modern works! When yr toaster or TV breaks, you dont go BUT IT WAS WORKING TIL LAST NIGHT, you go "oh, now it's died. I gotta work out why". For some effed up reason people dont apply that thinking to internet, and demand that it be fixed NAO even tho there is 2308275487 things that could cause the problem (wifi, modem failure, overheating, interference, shitty phone lines, tram going past [not kidding], ISP's servers died, internationl link died, ddos attack, etc etc etc... )god Im glad I dont work helpdesk anymore.

Sorry that might sound like an attack on youse, not meant that way. Just general GAAAHHHRRR at customers haha.
― thanks to denial, I'm immortal! (Trayce), Friday, 20 January 2012 09:10 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah yeah of course, I did loads of time on phone support too so I completely get that. Ordinarily I'd look at what had changed but nothing had changed. Google was useless and the MBA gave me zero help.
btw I see what you mean about the famouse persong thing, ugh it wasn't meant to come across like that at all, now I feel like a dick

And it *is* very annyoying when something suddenly stops working for no raisin.
I know what you mean coz the one thing everyone gets in tech support is the 45 minutes of "it just stopped working I didn't touch anything" followed by "oh btw the cat pissed on it"

Back in the '90s (so pre-screen sharing etc) I had a woman who couldn't log into the isp through the terminal user/pass thing. Conversation went on for at least 15 minutes, spelling her user & pass, checking the case, checking the caps lock wasn't on etc. Turns out she never once pressed enter, so her terminal screen was like this

how does one diagnose such a thing ffs

Yeeep thats one reason why I bailed on helpdesk work. You can't see what the idiots are doing, Ive heard so many stories about callers who say "yep" to everything theyre asked to do, and then admit theyre actually in the car/at work and not in front of said connection at all, I mean WTF. How do you think we're gonna fix it, with telepathy!?

Fans? No one knows who you are. You haven’t opened and become ‘a Fitzroy institution’ yet. How can you be taken out of context when the context is obvious and explained?
This is fuckin hilarious!

The bottom line is you’re banned, and when you’re the one walking up the street trying to get a coffee and can’t- it’s going to be your own fault.

Within a few weeks we will be moving to a spot on the same block, we also have some of Melbourne’s hottest and hippest artists literally cueing up to get their stuff on the walls.
And with the menus themed around street art like ‘Reka Ribs’ ‘Perks Pizza’ ‘Banksy bacon burgers’ and ‘Shepard Fairey Bread’ it’s no wonder.
These guys are trollin, rite?
