| floridagram | <KMyers> @govatent, Sweet. I love mine | 13:38 |
|---|---|---|
| floridagram | <govatent> The manager at the store hooked me up with the device for free. | 13:40 |
| floridagram | <govatent> Then it's 10 bucks a month for 2gb of data. That ain't bad on the grand scheme of the bill | 13:41 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @govatent, I got mine for free as well (Technically a bill credit of ~$8.00 per month for 2 years) | 13:41 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> I went with the 6 GB per month option. It is actually a better value as it includes full binge-on and data stash | 13:42 |
| floridagram | <govatent> They are getting me a 40 dollar bill credit direct | 13:42 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> My car currently has around 29.5 GB of data right now. Technically you can only stash up to 20 GB (+ 6GB per month of your normal data). I have an extra 4GB data stash | 13:44 |
| floridagram | <govatent> Oh nice! | 13:44 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> As it has BingeOn enabled, Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Amazon Video, etc all stream for free | 13:45 |
| floridagram | <govatent> Sweet! | 13:45 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> So aside from running a massive apt-get dist-upgrade, it is really hard to use a lot of data on it, even with a car full of people on a road trip | 13:46 |
| floridagram | <govatent> The only thing, I don't know if 2gb will be useful for anything | 13:46 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> I found that the core features of the SyncUp drive use ~25 MB per month | 13:46 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> Speaking of long road trips, Anyone have any updates to SELF? | 13:48 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> I know @Ivoriesablaze is likely out due to his injury but have not got any solid Yes/No answers from anyone else | 13:49 |
| maxolasersquad | "My car currently has around 29.5 GB of data right now." One day that will sound antiquated, not futuristic. :) | 13:51 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @maxolasersquad, That is true, In the future it would be 2 TB for the same price | 13:53 |
| maxolasersquad | In the present all three of my vehicles have a combined 0kb of data. | 14:53 |
| floridagram | <Ivoriesablaze> And mine has 0b | 15:31 |

| floridagram | <AdamOutler> BTW, guys. TracFone just enabled free tethering. | 18:12 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> You pay for your data, not how you use it. | 18:12 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> I'm guessing that only starts on new phones? | 18:13 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @AdamOutler, Nice. . Exactly how it should be | 18:13 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> since some don't have the option in the settings | 18:13 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @ahoneybun, No, it would likely be server side as long as the option is exposed | 18:13 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Yeah. We were given directives to stop enforcing that policy 6-months ago. New phones are rolling out with tethering. | 18:13 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> that's the issue | 18:13 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> if it's not exposed then it's a no go | 18:14 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> We protected from the phones themselves as well, Keith. | 18:14 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> @AdamOutler, So it will have a "on select devices" clause, unless it is a BYOD | 18:15 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> Damn... my Flip Phone cant tether | 18:15 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> Hehe. Yeh. But there is no corporate policy and you can buy them with tethering enableable out of box. | 18:16 |
| floridagram | <AdamOutler> So, if you're only using 2GB/month, might I suggest a $30 TF plan instead of a $40 plan elsewhere? | 18:17 |
| floridagram | <KMyers> Update : My credit card was just charged for the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus, hopefully that means it will ship soon | 18:22 |
| floridagram | <govatent> I haven't opened the drive sync yet. But I may return it. I'm not sure I want to pay 10 bucks a month | 18:39 |

| maxolasersquad | 4 disc box-set of Ninja Gaiden OST released today. Also available in digital http://store.bravewave.net/ | 18:51 |
| maxolasersquad | I wish I had too much disposable income so I could pick this up on vinyl. | 18:51 |
| floridagram | <govatent> 17.04 is out. | 20:10 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> Yep has been | 20:10 |

| floridagram | <AdamOutler> what's the plan for the weekend? | 23:07 |
| floridagram | <ahoneybun> Nothing that I know of | 23:18 |
