2 Rants in One

 

So it took Shaw Help 36 hours to get back to me in a PM and I was just passed on to the chat thing. Well I could have just done chat if that's what I wanted. I'm paying for the 600Mbps internet and seem to only be getting 200Mbps. My PC is wired and it was clocking in at 580Mbps and now it won't go over 200Mbps. Kind of pissy about that. I have done all the things it says to do and don't really want to spend 2 hours on chat on my phone with them trying to get it fixed. I'd obviously have to use my phone as if I used the PC they would drop me when they went to reset the modem or what not.


Samsung pushed out an update to my A50 and now it does not know the word "form" and several other words it used to know. The stupid thing is, in the suggestions the word comes up just as you see it above and yet it's underlined in red as misspelled. It also seems to have erased my learned words. Speaking of learned words, it used to be you long tapped the word then selected add to dictionary, now it just ads them even if you have messed up the word 20 times in a row, it just thinks it's correct and ads it after a while - to predictive text that is, not spelling. Sigh. There is literally no way to add words for spelling to the dictionary. I tried to use Gboard (Google keyboard) and it will NOT let me have the dictionary for Gboard set to the default for the life of me. Every time I plug in the phone to charge, it sets it back to the Samsung dictionary and it will NOT work with Gboard. So I'm literally forced to use their broken keyboard and dictionary (with no user dictionary).

    It was getting a lot faster so I got no idea. The thing is my phone was getting 300 and now only 200. So its got to be the modem.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.

AI Image Generator Is Not So Intelligent

Image
Images created with Deep Dream Generator , and are free to use.   Asked for "a child walking into the sunset with the ghost of his grandfather." Got this instead. Asked for "a grandmother holding a baby in an old kitchen while a cat sits on a window that is streaming sunlight." This one actually worked, "a mother and son on a park bench eating an apple."

A Comment That Just Made Me Wonder About The Person

Image
I normally go out of my way not to make a deal out of comments but I'll do it this time. Please don't go looking for the comment either, leave the person alone please. So when you do a review of a movie, or on a trailer for a movie, you put the year it was released in brackets after the name, so people no it from another movie of the same or similar name. This is standard practice. How someone could be on the internet for over a week and not have noticed this is astonishing to me to say the least. Then again this channel of theirs is less than 2 or 3 months old only, so there is a possibility they are just trying to be funny, or trying to draw out a bad reaction. I don't look down on the person for this in any event, but I just am wondering how the hell you don't know this. They seem to think the (2023) is when I uploaded the video when in reality it was indeed 2024 when I uploaded - No one is trying to fool you dude, it's not a trick. Anyway, here is the comment in...
