What am I doing? Trying to explain basic networking to a Comcast "Tech support agent" so they can get our internet back up.

It came back up on it's own while I was on the phone with the tech. (The tech did nothing to make that happen.)
Then he said well it's working so it there anything else I can do for you? (I wanted to say "anything else? What the hell did you do for me." But, I just said thanks and hung up... I'm not sure why I have higher expectations when I call.

Reminds me of a time when we had an upload speed problem (because not enough channels picked up by our modem for upstream), and I was trying to explain to a tech support agent that "no, these are not cable TV channels."

Are you screaming into the phone yet? If you are, it sounds like you could be dealing with Windscream.

I want to get another year or two out of my Honda Insight. Maybe even another 100,000 miles (at 200k). But man, a Tesla would be nice right now.

Looks like your dummy light is on... Time for an oil change?

According to the computer code, some emissions thing that will cost me $800, but it goes off sometimes. So I ignore it for now.

Like a Ford, all the sensors going off all fo the time for no reason. Driving a Ford apparently is just living with sensors beeping all of the time.

Definitely not the same. This is an actual valid fault. I am choosing to ignore it until I am required to deal with it to pass emissions in January.

Oh boy. My Chevy has its ding ding ding, bright read flashes all the time too.
I was hoping the Toyota's that I was looking at was going to solve that problem. :disappointed_face:

I am trying to get out of my Impala and was looking at pre-owned Camry's. Very very view available with 6-cylinder engines.

I have dealt with them as well. And yes, they are much worse. Once in a while I'll get a really good tech at Comcast, but never with Windscream.

Dealing with Medicaid/Social Security "web site". I put web site in quotes, because they are really setting up a freaking VPN connection in order to get into an Oracle database. I'm sure this is so very secure

My Sienna is really good about warning lights. Only shows stuff when something is actually very wrong. Coming from a Ford Flex this is a bit refreshing.

If it is something like an O2 sensor, you may be able to change it yourself. Usually it's just disconnect the wires and unscrew it... but it depends on where it is and how much disassembly it takes to reach it.
