Nope. At least not with my small time torrenting.
So far it's only when i upload something large like a video to youtube. I'll check if sending someone a large file via skype FTP will do that as well.

EDIT: I'm sending a 40 Mb file to a friend right now and the internet seems to be in working order. So far it seems only uploading files to youtube causes that.

Wired. Altho the router supports wifi and overusing the internet via wifi also disconnects any devices connected to it via wifi.
Not sure if i can upload a large file via my smartphone tho.

Ok i have another problem.
This one is not really all that serious but hey it's worth asking right?

So my internet is... bizarre.
It works normally and it's even quite fast at 1400 Kb/s
HOWEVER when i have a lot of outgoing traffic (if i start uploading a youtube video for example) it simply goes bananas. To the point that windows actually assumes i lost connection (while the video still uploads normally).

it's not a big issue but it prevents me from using the internet at all while i upload a video.
No Bay12, no skype, no nothing.

Germany is by far the most deviant countries in Europe.
Hell some people even call it the European Japan.
My theory is that they had good internet and high population density that let the furry population flourish sooner.
(also note that south England has similar "furry" density.

Vore?
Yeah it can get pretty unsettling but thankfully i don't think i ever heard of anyone trying to recreate it IRL and i'm dead inside enough not to care about what people spank their monkey to as long as it does not bleed into the real world.

And really... it's not like only furries are into weirdass fetishes.

Bullet resistent couch.

what

Seems pretty useless. Most couches are too short to give much protection unless you're actively taking cover, so it won't help if you don't know you're going to get shot at.
Unless someone wants to shoot your back underestimates your couch and simply blasts away assuming the bullets will go through it instead of aiming at your head.

Of course that works only if you sit on the couch with your back facing the shooter... yeah not the most useful product but it might indeed save your life if the stars and planets align correctly on the day of summer solstice.

I just realized that USA uses the currency symbol before the sum instead of after like all modern progressive countries.
So mericans write $1 instead of 1$.
But they will say one dollar instead of dollar one.

I'm shocked that i never noticed that before.

The probably still use feet and inches as well.

So today i learned that a friend of a friend is a character in (probably via winning an auction or a kickstarter pledge. I don't know the details) in some dating sim.
Your friend of a friend isn't a YouTube personality, are they? I heard that a dating sim featuring folks like JonTron is going to be released at some point.
Nah. It's something... else.
Major\Minor
Never played it but from what i gather from the reviews it's a visual novel with adventure and dating sim elements.
So yeah...

Well there are ways. Personal teleporters might be rare and the main protagonist simply is not a special enough snowflake to get a hold on one.
Not sure how to explain shields tho.
Also the dates are kinda whack because crusader seems to be more advanced technologically than SS while happening earlier in the potential timeline.
making them swap places would fis the problem tho.

Why don't we have personal teleporters?
Because they weren't invented yet.

Why don't we have personal shields?
Because they still only exist on paper.

However... breaching that "seperated rights" might be a bigger problem.

Now i wonder if they decide to do a crossover with Crusader
http://crusader.wikia.com/wiki/SHODAN

Might be a bit too late seeing that the crusader series is pretty much dead now tho...

Anyway, semi-related, I was reading about the history of tanks. The Royal Navy once planned to build a steel "landship" to sail across no-man's land on a battlefield. Which means in an alternate universe we have fucking ironclads rolling across the landscape and not boring cubes.
Well the germans wanted to build the Ratte. Pretty close design philosophy wise.
And then you have the TOG2

The secret to faking one's gender on the Net is really simple. Come closer and I'll tell you if you promise not to tell anyone.

Closer.

Closer.

Closer.

Closer.

You have to act like a normal human being.
I feel cheated. You were supposed to tell us the simple way to do it.
The simplest way to do it is just ask assume everyone on the internet is male.
If you have suspicions that someone is actually female go and ask.

If she says she indeed is female you can assume it's a male.
If she says that she's a male than he's most likely a male.
If she tells you that she's actually a pineapple then she's most certainly female trying to hide her gender from creeps like you so she gives a half answer.
