What's everyone up to right now?
RE: What's everyone up to right now?
My NAT type on Xbox is still strict. And port forwarding doesn't seem to work on this router/hub/whatever the hell its called. It's the newest Virgin Media hub and its notoriously buggy as hell.

Pissing me off.

So what am I up to? Trying to sort this mess..

@Bella - is UPnP enabled on the router?

Me is currently not sleeping, I stubbed my toes on the fireplace hearth while boxing up my apartment. The toes on my bad leg which were already quite painful. I find it very difficult to sleep when I'm in pain and I don't think it's a good idea to take any more tramadol for a few more hours.

Yeah, it's enabled. Even tried disabling and re-enabling it again. Apparently other users are having issues with the same hub. Not much I can really do.

Actually, I have a large pond with about 30 goldfish. Before I feed them in the morning I put my hand in and they let me slightly touch them, kind of like patting. If I forget to feed them they make big splashing noises when I walk past.
I also have a large Chinese Koi fish tattoo on one shoulder.  Smile

I don't thing the Xbox 360 or Xbox One require anything more than NAT and UPnP, so yeah it sounds d like a buggy implementation. I wonder if they're assigning RFC 1918 addresses and using NAT upstream as well. That would suck.

I'm an Xbox One player, and yeah it definitely has to be buggy implementation. Sucks.  Undecided

I only have three class days left, son!

I have a whole another year to go :-(
Also, i think I was in an operating system class. Those are the worst, just loads and loads of Theory, give me some problems to solve and write a program not Bla Bla theory!

Oh I still have about a year and a half left. The semester's over for me in three days, though!
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Wow...That's a lot of fish to name. 
If you haven't and don't feel up to it, consider a group name like The Authorities or The Jacksons. 
Or Legion. Big Grin

Archie lets me pet him lightly. He's a betta and their fins are extremely delicate, so I have to be careful.
He'll also jump up to take food from my finger (bloodworm treats) and will flare/dance when prompted.

I was considered teaching him to jump through a pipe cleaner hoop, but uh...determined that I'd be degrading him.
My sweetheart doesn't have to jump through hoops for me....I LOVE him.

Another chapter done! That one was straightforward and was really just revision from my earlier courses.
Feel free to send me a private message.
