LG G Flex #facepalm

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 02:19 AM PDT

 

As you can see in the images (above and below), the G Flex offers a curved display, but the direction of its curve is completely the opposite of the Galaxy Round that was announced last week: instead of it curving from left to right, the G Flex goes from top to bottom.

Restrictions by BCCI on commentary in India

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 12:37 AM PDT

http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/story/679135.html

 

 

 

A tweet by Sanjay Manjrekar on Tuesday gave an indication to an extent of the workings of cricket television in India and the tricky territory in which its commentators must operate. The tweet was addressed to Sundar Raman, the IPL chief operating officer. It read: "Sundar, I have now been kicked off from studio for Ind/Aus by star. Don't you think this is a bit harsh? I have a contract with them." The tweet was deleted almost immediately and Manjrekar later explained via another tweet that it was a "segment of private chat that erroneously got onto twitter."

 

 

While Star owns the media rights, production is handled by the BCCI - which means the board can decide the roster of commentators on its "world-feed" broadcast which is sent around the cricket-watching globe.

 

 

 

Along with that goal, one of the key requirements for a BCCI world-feed commentator, apart from knowledge of cricket and reasonable grasp of English, is the willingness to avoid a list of taboo subjects during commentary. Ian Chappell declined an offer of a commentary stint because he was told he would have to follow BCCI restrictions.Chappell told Hindustan Times on Tuesday that when he asked what the restrictions were he was told he couldn't talk about Indian selection, DRS or administrative matters. "I responded saying I didn't feel I could do my job properly under those circumstances and therefore declined the offer," Chappell said.

The impact of the restrictions during that series was reflected in the quality and tenor of the commentary - catches that went down after hitting MS Dhoni on the wrist and Virat Kohli on the chest were called "half chances" and there was no comment passed on the state of the pitch for the Delhi Test, which ended inside three days.

The IPL, known for its higher pitch of commentary, witnessed another episode of message control following an ebullient pre-match introduction of Kohli by Danny Morrison and HD Ackerman earlier this year. Both Morrison and Ackerman made references to Kohli as a "possible future captain" of India and "captain-in-waiting."

 

They were reprimanded "quite badly" for talking about what was a "selectors' decision." A commentators' roster for the play-off final was announced earlier than usual and neither man found himself on it. During the recently-concluded Champions League T20, the list of taboo topics included the sight of empty stands.

 

So, basically, there is no real point in listening to the commentary on matches in India.

ACT Broadband - Have serious customer support issues

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 11:59 PM PDT

I moved house from Koramangala to Indiranagar and enquired with ACT if they would be able to provide me a connection in the new place. They took their own sweet time and after many phone calls later said they have done the feasibility study and they can in-fact provide me a connection in the new place. I asked them about what about all the days I won't be able to use the connection since they take 15 working days to shift it, they told me repeatedly that it would be credited to my account.

 

The Transfer Process

 

Their person came to collect new address proof and promptly took INR 300 as transfer charges. Again the series of calling them about the connection started. Their floor supervisor Mr. S kept stating that they are committed to giving the connection and they will refund the for the time I was unable to use it.

 

The Excuses start as always

 

Eventually they started giving excuses on why they can't provide the conncetion. Apparently there is someone in the new building who has a box but refuses to share the connection. So now ACT says that they can't provide the connection unless I go talk to the other customer and convince them. This is the most absurd thing I had ever heard. I have a business relationship with ACT but they want me to do their work. Not only that, I tried to explain to them that I am on their most expensive package, why not shift the box from the other customer to my place and give the connection to them.

 

Don't want my business

 

For some reason their customer support isn't interested in my business at all. I have never crossed the FUP limit so I fail to understand why it would be so. The only reasonable explaination is that they don't care at all.

 

The icing on the cake is that they have agreed to refund the transfer charges of INR 300 but not for the 15 days of unused internet. Right now, I am trying to get in touch with Mr. S and anyone who would understand that this is not the way to treat a customer but so far no luck.

 

Out of ideas on how to deal with them

 

If you all have any ideas on how to proceed to either get a connection(25 Mbps is needed for the kind of work I do) or at least if I can get my money back for the time I haven't utilised at all.

 

Frequent Disconnection / ADSL blinking Issue on MTNL Broadband

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 11:31 PM PDT

Hi,

I am a user of 849NU plan of MTNL Triband service since August based out of Navi Mumbai.

All of August, i was very happy to have a lovely connection and good speeds, with a pretty good tariff.
But now since the past 15 days I am suffering from very intermittent net connection.
Although I am connected to the internet, sometimes the webpages take ages to open, and never open, while at other times it opens instantly. Also downloading has the same pattern, sometimes I get very good speeds of upto 200 Kbps, while other times there is no download. Although all download sites show good Triband Speed, but it is the intermittent connection that is the problem.
This problem has crept up in the last 15 odd days, and I have tried everything but no change has been noticed.

Has anyone else faced a similar problem, and if yes, whats the work around. The people at MTNL classify this as a slow connection problem, but that is exactly not the issue, as I do get good speeds intermittently.

Somebody please help me.

The australian squad has been selected, it has been a pretty good squad but starc is injured and out. concerns are also over clark's fitness.

India's squad for the lone t20 and first 3 ODI's will be tomorrow, and yuvi is certain to make a comeback given his strong performances in the list A games.

MTNL Broadband VDSL2 User Experiences

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 11:20 PM PDT

I wanted to start a new experience thread simply to discuss MTNL VDSL.

Some things to consider before/after taking a new VDSL connection

 

SNR margins (SNRM)
Below 9 dB : Poor experience with lots of HEC and CRC errors. Line will disconnect frequently.
9   - 11  dB : Ok but not ideal. Disconnections will be there if some unexpected variance is introduced by rains, humidity in the wire.
12 - 16  dB : Ideal and realistic value. Expect almost no disconnections as the line has more wiggle room for tolerating variances.
17 dB and up : God Mode. Lucky few get this on VDSL synced at 30 mbps and up. So far I have seen various stats and no one has reported this SNRM (That is because VDSL sync rates are always higher)

 

Higher you sync rate, lower the SNRM will be. Lower the SNRM, lower the connection reliability. Lower reliability means frequent disconnections. Hence ISP's have a setting in DSLAM to artificially increase SNRM value for a particular phone line. Hence you sync at lower rate and line automagically becomes stable.

 

Attenuation may not be that important after all. It reduces sync speeds over a distance but is not an indicator of connection reliability. (You can roughly calculate your line length from it. Do it here)

Apply for VDSL connection only if you are within half km. Otherwise you will get ADSL like sync rates.

I will update this entry with some of our findings. Since VDSL is somewhat new to India, this thread can help some early adopters.

 

Currently the speeds are decent for fast servers. But single streams are slow due to a bottleneck somewhere.

ACT "Useless Connectivity @ HIGH COST"

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 08:55 PM PDT

Hi,
 
I have got a new Act BB connection on 22/08/2013.
 
Acc No :412315
 
From the day of taking connection, internet connectivity had so many downtimes!!! i am not sure how ACT claims that it provides seemless connectivity at great speeds!!!
It should be "Useless Connectivity @ HIGH COST"
 
for past 12 days from OCT 2 ,my connection has not been working fine ,ACT has done nothing but just raise complaints and close it!!!
 
I wonder how the speed gets better when i call cust care and raise a complaint!!! ACT is a big fraud ,they commit big deals before taking connection and once u pay for 6 months ,ur money will be locked and ACT will make u dance to their tunes!! Even if connection is down for a week they wont bother as its a pre-paid connection and act got the money!!!
 
If u raise ur voice ,raise complaints they would just close it without addressing it!!
There is no provision to pay on-line for ACT BB....payment gateway doesn't work!!! ACT has made it mandatory to pay for every pick up cheque!! My question is when there is no provision to pay online y shud customers pay for cheque pick up???
 
ACT bb is a nuisance in the city trying its best to fool ppl!!! beware of this fraud

I am experiencing problems with reliance thunder 1mbps the d/l speed is now 20kbps and it varies up and down sometimes i get maximum of 70 and sometimes 3 kbps i have complained regarding the same to reliance CC. A service engineer came home and said line is working fine problem lies with server call CC to solve it.Now i did that to no help getting response issue will be sorted out then i get a sms complaint has been solved now i have registered my third complaint in 3 days getting the same thing CC says service engineer and service engineer says CC and complaint is solved without consulting me. Any ideas how to get it sorted. As i feel now i am acting as a member of reliance service team rather a customer coordinating between service engineer and CC.I have also asked both of them sort it on their own to no use.

The highest download speed you ever reached

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 07:50 PM PDT

 Once at a friend's place (hostel) there was an unsecured wifi network, and I downloaded at almost 1MBps. I would often go to his place to download. But, after 1-2 months the network became secured and so it was the end of delight. So, anyways what is the highest download speed you have ever got?

Query about Medical Insurance and Term Plan

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 01:34 PM PDT

This is going to be an awkward post. So, I have a mediclaim policy that started 2 years ago and I plan to take a term plan sometime next year.

 

The question I want to ask is…

 

When I applied for medical insurance, I got a quote based on my smoking habits. I assume the premium was higher based on that.

 

I have not smoked for 1.5 month now. I know it does not really mean anything right now. The question I want to ask is…

 

Can I get a fresh quote for my existing medical insurance policy in a year or two or three based on my quitting smoking (if it stays like this by that time?).

 

What should I do for the term plan? Get a quote based on I am a smoker or based on I am a non-smoker? After how much time can I call myself a quitter/non-smoker to get the connected benefits in various insurance policies?

 

Basically, what exactly is the criteria of these companies when it comes to smokers…?
