Speed Boost on the Home Front

February 18, 2008 on 10:41 pm | In General | No Comments

I got an email from Embarq over the weekend letting me know that they now offer 5mb and 10mb service. When we switch from Charter’s crappy service to Embarq, I decided to stay at the 3mb we were used to, knowing that I’d save money, and have better quality of service.

Turns out that not only is Embarq offering these new speeds, but the 5mb service was going to save us $7.00/month if we switch. So we made the switch, with quite a difference :D

Previous Speed:
3 Meg Service

Upgraded Speed:
5 Meg Service

Much better :D

Busy Week

February 12, 2008 on 9:52 am | In General | No Comments

Technical Evaluation week is always a busy week around Honda. Many people, hustling and bustling to pull together documents at the last minute. Unfortunately, my job is to take those last minute documents and merge them with other documents, which means I’m always a little more behind everyone else. O well, we shall survive.

Ridiculously Authentic Looking Spam Message

February 6, 2008 on 1:27 pm | In Geek, General | No Comments

I don’t go through my Spam Folder very often, but today this message caught my eye. I couldn’t believe how threatening and realistic it was. After reading through it, I noticed a few English grammatical errors, which is typical of Spam since it usually originates in other areas of the world. Nonetheless, I’m sure many people every day are convinced by these messages.

I was most surprised to find that the Director of the FBI uses Yahoo for email, haha :D
