I need to vent!

On another note I recently have been getting into the Left4Dead games on PC and just bought L4D2 on PC, but because the game has to update before I can play it and that I'm stuck on dial-up speeds for the next week or so I can't play it yet until it's done updating WHICH IS TAKING FOREVER!

DAMN YOU VALVE AND STEAM, as much I love your games your need to force us to update before we can play is vexing me!!!

Compooper seems to be behaving itself now. On another note...

I have a 3 b/band usb thing for my little laptop and it has trouble uploading pics to my bloggerr account, photobucket is fine and I can log in and type in my blogger account. When at home I can load photos fine, just this usb thing wont. So I ring up the technical help line thing and tell them my problem.

After getting moved from place to place, I get some guy who I tell what the problem is. He tells me that he doesn't know how to upload pictures onto blogger accounts. I tell him I know how to, it just doesn't work due to the thumb stick thing. Again he tells me that he doesn't know how to upload pics to blogger, but he can help me transfer pictures from my PHONE to my computer.
WHAT? When did I magically get a phone with 3?

So I explain the process again, usb b/band thing doesn't load pictures to the Blogger account. He says he doesn't know how to load pics to blogger. I tell him I know, but the usb thing doesn't do it. He says he doesn't know how to load pics to blogger.
*sigh*
Tets thanks him for his time, shakes head and hangs up...

Nice 'Helpdesk' 3

if you can upload pics to photobucket and not the blogger account, then it isn't the b/band that's causing your problem. Unless there's a max wait for uploading pictures and it's the slow speed of the b/band that's causing the problem. Either way, you cannot get around the upload speed issue of your network unless they can increase the upload speed.

Or maybe it's the size of your pics that's preventing upload to blogger???

I have issues sometimes of uploading pics to fb because my wireless b/band is so.... slow. That I give up before allowing it to finish the upload.

Pfft, I dunno. I managed to do one. usual pic size is about 300 KB, so not that large. I have just left it for about 10 or so minutes, I just write the post and do the pics when I get home. Oddly enough, I was waiting for it to do some when I was on the phone to the helpdesk and the pictures loaded up all right. After I got off the phone, I tried again with some other pics the same size and it wouldn't work. lol. FAIL

Nevertheless, the help desk was pretty craptacular, they had no clue. Where did they get the idea that I had a mobile phone? I never once meentioned that. Meh, whatever. It made me laugh a little bit though, so not all bad.

I broke my rule and purchased two figures at full price. Opened them and found I don't really like either, one of which is my least favourite purchase all year. And now they're going on special for about $6 cheaper each. Must resist the impulse to buy too soon! It was stupid of me.
