BT engineer told me today that he could only install a landline into my house by going through one specific room which belongs to a housemate of mine who has the door locked and wasn't in. They'll be happy to come back in a few weeks. Going to be over a month without internet. Fuck everything everywhere. Will cost me best part of 25b in plexes alone, before you even add the whole "not playing eve which sucks cause I like eve" thing. Body, can you offline the pos for me? Keep the fuel in system, we'll put it back on nearer the time unless someone else wishes to use pos + hardware and pay for fuel.

Pretty sure paying a locksmith to break your housemate's lock would be cheaper than 25b worth of plexes. Do it.

edit: Wait, you're saying that the reason you have to wait is because the BT guy can't visit again for another month? What the fuck?

I've had quite a few room mates over the years, especially when I went through college, and the idea that one of them needing to lock a room while not engaging in some sort of intimate affair, sounds foreign to me. Probably making meth in his bath tub.

BT so bad, and why not kick door down? No internet sucks I went through similar dismay when I moved house.

KwarK just try to share internet with some other guy in the house until BT delivers. Everyone has wifi. Most people are happy to split internet cost. Wireless USB sticks cost nothing.

BT are shit. Phoned up BT to ask when they could next install one as the engineer left, they said not until September, I called the engineer and said I'd break the door and replace it but he'd already reported the job cancelled and said he couldn't actually do it now because of paperwork. To make things worse there's a stupid pay as you go electricity meter in the house because the area is pretty slummy and it's in the same guy's room. About half an hour later the lights went out. Called the landlady but no reply, tomorrow I'm taking a hammer to the lock.
On a bright note, Virgin reckon they can get me internet by Friday. We'll see.

The house has no internet. It currently has no internet, no cable, no phone line and right now, no electricity. It's pretty stone age.

How do you think I'm paying for plex? Still turning a reasonable profit on those.

Kwark, here are the events that I think probably transpired

A) The telecom tech is lazy and doesn't want to do work

B) The actual only entrance point for lines are in the other room, and for some reason that's the only place that's wired....(What kind of place do you live in)

C) The tech was a bit weirded out by Kwark in the fetal position on the common room floor whimpering "My isk, I need my isk" over and over and just needed to make an excuse to leave.

Also, if I'm off-lining shit, I am packing it up and storing it in station, people will snipe it.

Seriously though, call the roomie and badger him into letting you wire shit.

Most places don't have it but if in the past the occupier has had pay monthly/quarterly electricity and not paid then they're like "not gonna trust you again, you can have pay as you go and pay way more and fuck you bitch". You have this thing you take to convenience stores and top up and plug into the meter. I've not actually done it yet because the housemates previously handled it but he disappeared a week ago and I've not seen him since. :S
I do have water and the water has pressure so I could create some kind of water powered dynamo plant thing from the upstairs bathroom down the stairs.
This new house/roommate situation has been nothing but trouble.

You at least need to have the guy's phone number or something.

Take a picture of the door to the room for me, and any lines that are run in the place, telecom outlets etc.

God....since you have the technical knowledge of a pensioner, this will probably be painful for me.

Ive been reading these posts and just wishing their was a like button similar to the one on arsebook. I am amazed at some situations u get into Kwark. Are u living in a drug den or something to save on rent? I thought only council problem tenants have pay as u fo meters nowadays. At least theyve moved on from coin in the slot meters like the old days wen i was a boi

See coin slot was what I was thinking, imagining kwark as bender with the string tied coin to cheat the suicide booth.

Back to eve, http://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/y73je/looking_for_a_machariel_fit_for_level_4_missions/

that will probably be my source of eve entertainment for my last hour at work, then a quick work out and maybe I'll get to pew pew today.
