Comment 60? 60fps? (Score 1) 60

This is just pathetic laziness, please let me know when this bizarre shortfall has been corrected and the holiday special has been upscaled to 360FPS at bare minimum, why would anyone want to suffer from a horrendously slow 60FPS, us true gamers know that a frame rate this low is an insult to our eyeballs.

Doesn't sound legal, but of course it requires someone fight the tel co's. I don't think this would fly in the UK where the ombudsman would take one look at a complaint about it and slap it down. Not everything in UK is screwed... yet. I complained to the ombudsman here about a similarly rubbish practice where the tel co (Virgin Media) was trying to charge me for service after I had notified them to end my service, they claimed I couldn't quit my service until all bills were paid - some kind of bizarro land scheme where I could never leave!! Went my way of course.

If you go with the main networks in the UK you get ripped off but if you buy your phone and then use 3rd parties like Lebara, Giffgaff or iD mobile then you get to use the network backbone of your choice without paying the high fees.

Lebara runs on Vodafone network, iD runs on the Three network, GiffGaff runs on the O2 network, Lyca runs on the EE network.

Comment Re:I've installed Firefox (Score 2) 71

I use a TamperMonkey/violentmonkey script called "remove Adblock Thing" by JoelMatic on Github. It's been working better than the previous adblocker. The nice side effect of using scripts rather than extensions is that all of the scripts come back after having to restore from backup unlike extensions which all get nuked by chrome and chromium forks. Firefox is far better for backing up.
