Comcastration. Comcast decided to do some
maintenance on the cable lines today. So, I've lost broadband again
for the day, so some wire monkey can come out and grease the junctions
on all the poles, or whatever it is that they do up in the
cherry-picker with the fiber/coax junctions. “Oh, some customers
might have gotten a notification in their bills,” the support line
peon said when asked why we hadn't heard anything about this.
After a full day down hard on Monday, this is not making me feel that
warm and fuzzy about Comcast.
