OT: Anything Goes 24: Don't Set Your iPhone to 1970

[CourtneyDagger50]

I wore my Hawks jersey.
Got a few weird looks. But also got a few "GO HAWKS!" I was surprised lol

Just a piece of advice:

If you see something on the internet that says to set your phone back to Jan 1, 1970 to get a new look on your phone..

Don't do it. Do. Not. Do. It.

24 hours later and I just got my phone working again. It bricks your phone and makes it extremely difficult to get it back working. Can't believe I fell for it, but who thought changing the date on your phone could do so much damage?

I saw an article about that the other day. http://www.wired.com/2016/02/dont-set-your-iphone-back-to-1970-no-matter-what/

You can get past it without having to take the phone in. You just have to wait for it to die. And I mean completely die. Not where it has battery and tells you to plug in, but the point where not a single thing pops up. It's a waiting game, but it's much better than having to send it in or, if you don't have warranty, buy a new phone.

I met my girlfriend on Tinder. It's turned out pretty well so far.

There will always be exceptions.

But, the best bet is always to just pony up and use a paid dating site. They really do work quite well. (Not speaking from experience, but numbers)


I'm trying to convince my friend to stop using Tinder, it typically causes him to run into immature women.

This should be expected, but that doesn't make Tinder a bad thing. It should be used for fun and the girls you meet on it shouldn't be taken seriously.

One final down, toughest one tomorrow morning, then one Wednesday morning and then I'm done for two and a half week!

Exactly He says its fun (He once had a date with a Crazy nazi witch lady lol), but he only really meets women through Tinder and still wonders why he's not finding mature women.

Maybe the mature women on tinder have boring profiles?

Jiffy Lube wants $45 for a basic oil change. Do people actually pay that?

I don't think too many guys actually read the profiles.

I usually pay $40 for an oil change and tire rotation at the dealership.

 

[chicagoskycam]

So I call up Uverse to complain about my bill and they switch me to Direct TV for a much lower bill. I know they are both owned by AT&T now but it seemed like a strange tactic. It's a constant game with these service providers. If I could get a good source of live sports online I'd be done.

 

[MurrayBannerman]

RCN is the ****.

That's nutty. Think it's $25 at my dad's shop, he owns a Meineke.

Lynyrd Skynyrd and CCR are becoming some of my favorite bands.

Yeah, you're definitely not reading the profile as you swipe left or right.

Finals are done

Watching high level playrs play Street Fighter V on Twitch is blowing my mind.

How do you think that fast?

I still struggle with Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I hate and suck at fighting games.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Eh, I'm mostly indifferent.... though truth be told, if I had a choice to own any arcade cabinet in existence, Street Fighter II Turbo would be right up there. Or TMNT. Probably that, actually. Or NBA Jam. Hell, any one of those three.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Supersonics totally dominated

 

[Martin Riggs]

Did anybody besides me like the hockey equivalent of NBA Jam, NHL Open Ice? Foley was the commentator in that game.

I remember nhl hitz.
