Reply to Actual up/down speeds for Verizon Fios? by Casioclast
Yes, you actually get the speed you pay for and jitter is quite low. I will never ever again live where I'm forced to deal with Comcast's bullshit.

I also had luck with the BBB and a terrible ISP back around 2011. One could almost come to the conclusion that the "BBB is useless" meme is astroturfed propaganda...

Reply to comment by woodysbackinpa in What's with the ATV crowd in PA and what should I do about it? by Griff82
That's been policy since at least somewhere around 2010-2011, maybe earlier. I remember because where I was living at the time had a lot of dirtbike/ATV activity. The cops chased one, the ATV driver hit and injured/killed a pedestrian trying to flee, and now here we are.
I'll agree that Philly is a total shitshow right now but it can't all be laid at Kenney's/Krasner's feet. PPD has been completely useless for a looooong time. Living at that same place I heard a woman get kidnapped, screaming for her life as her voice faded away with the vehicle she'd been dragged into. I called 911 several times with no answer so I called the police district. Their reaction was literally "what do you want us to do about it?" This was over ten years ago. Around the same time I was robbed at gunpoint west of Drexel campus and the police insisted on filing it as a theft, not a robbery. I can go on and on and on.
edit: and for the record I voted for both of them and I'm really disappointed in them both. I'm seriously disappointed in our city from top to bottom, honestly

I've actually been denied entry by a doorguy at a bar ca. 2006 because all I had was my passport (license was expired). Here's the conversation:
Him: What's this?
Me : It's a passport <shows him my DOB>
Him: What's it for?
Me: So you can leave and re-enter the country....
Him: Why would you want to leave the USA?
Me: <explains my friend's wedding, seeing the world, etc.>
Him: Well, I need a state-issued ID
Me : IT'S LITERALLY ISSUED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Him : <continues to be a jongoistic caveman while denying me entry>
