Between Sprint's miserable excuse for working dial-up service and presumed issues at LiveJournal, my journal and friends page are now being cut down from ten to FIVE posts per page, because I can no longer reliably get more than five or six posts loaded at a time even when our so-called connection is otherwise idle. It's less frustrating to load the day's posts five at a time than to make three or four tries per page to load them ten at a time (and still often end up having to load posts individually from the page summary).
Update: And even that isn't always loading fully on the first try. This is fucking ridiculous. If our connection sucked any more ass we'd be better off mailing floppy disks to someone with an actual connection. But it's useless talking to Sprint, because telcos aren't actually required by the FCC to provide any guarantee of usable data service, just voice.
Yo, Sprint!!! I don't HEAR no fucking pin!!!
