The megabyte thief

Posted by Firebird on Aug. 10, 2006, 12:02 a.m.

Well, as some of you know, I pretty much came back from camp.

Here is what happened -

I get to camp… ya de ya de ya… ah, screw it. You just had to be there to get the cool bits.

Exept when I was in the bus, going to the nightwalk, the other bus's window just appeared outside mine, and the lady said 'Can I have your torch please?'. It's kind of a running joke at school now, along with fake punching and saying 'I got suspended!' (Yeah, if you punch someone… suspension. Luckily this rule was enforced after I punched the guy in the face.)

Now, on to the megabyte thief…

I just recently went over my data limit. Which sucks. I am now browsing at 28.8kbps. It REALLY sucks. Anyway, the data limit was advertised as 2GB (sucks, yeah, I know), but I only got 2000MB. Where is my extra 48MB? Stolen by ninjas? Pirates? My ISP?

Maybe my ISP is stupid. Anyway, when I bought my 40 'GB' HDD, it wasn't actually 40GB. Which made me think, and do some maths.

I might have made an error, but if you buy a 100 'GB' drive, and it is only 100,000MB, you are cheated of 2.3GB! Agh, it makes me so angry. It's not really a big deal though…

Keep L337,

Firebird out!

my limit is 2GB, lol. They never care if we go above it though. I think we used 50GB once, but nothing happened.
