Traffic is hardly moving here this week, there are plenty of cabs around but is hard for them to get to a pick up right now, been lucky so far even managed to hail a cab outside our front gate wow ! :lol:
I had to upgrade my tablet OS to get Skype working on it and Oscar Mike Golf the bling is teh painful, almost need a tinted screen to tone it down a little so I guess all the blingy bits are what is keeping prices up :lol: Some friends are developing a no frills hands free wearable I been trying out, once those start to circulate I think prices will crash cos this one runs on an $8 processor and has only a tiny tiny $2 screen right next to your eye :)

...you seem to take taxis a lot, how expensive are they there, and is the transit system that bad?
Where I live, it would take me almost a day's pay just to get to work and back by cab. Or half a workday's time by transit.
...and here you can't simply go out to the street and hail A cab, you have to call in advance because of the assaults that have occurred against cabbies in recent years.

Average cab fare and tip for me is around $15. If you can picture this transport here is arranged like spokes on a wheel, roads and rail and tramlines and buses all radiating out to the suburbs from the city centre where we live. Is quicker to go to an outer suburb by train than by road, but inner city travel can mean up to three or four changes from tram to bus to train just to go two or three miles, so a cab is quicker and I think not much more expensive than public transport fares but everything is on pre loaded plastic cards instead of tickets I wouldn't be surprised if it is less expensive to take a cab. It sure is expensive to keep a car going in the inner city, we haven't had one for years :)

Smile, then chortle to yourself now and then. That will keep 'em guessing, Mystery Man.

...I need a workplace like that. My last one (the one before the call centre) was too uptight.and bipolar.

...sounds better than here.
The taxi rates we have are outrageous. The average one way fare (depending on time of day) to get to the call centre from my place was between 37$ and 48$ (sans tip) as the meter runs on time as well as distance travelled for what amounts to about an 18 - 20 min trip. As I may have mentioned before, I have sat and watched 1 - 2$ click off on the meter just waiting for a long red light. Transit fares here are relatively cheap in comparison, 2.50$ for a "2 hour" ticket that allows transfers, and 5$ for an all day ticket. The rub is the time involved, as a commute could entail not only several transfers, but out of the way or even reverse travel and often long waits particularly for those who don't have the usual 9 - 5 shift or don't work in downtown. Most of the job growth here is out in the burbs, not midtown, yet the transit system has not made any adjustment to accommodate the shift in commute patterns.
I would gladly pay twice the cost of a monthly transit pass for a subscription based workday commute car share service similar to Car-2Go. Time may not necessarily be money in my case, but it is part of "quality of life".

Train ticket from midnight to 7 am is free and around $6 for 2 hours during the day my SO says :) Our big problem with transport is we're suddenly a city of over four million travelling on stuff made for three :lol:
Complaint: They keep releasing characters and calling them base figures. They are not base figures! They are morphs, shapes, for Genesis or Genesis 2 Female. Genesis 2 Female is the base figure! I think it's just a way to charge so much more for the characters.
I can't afford that. Even if I had a steady income I don't think I could justify it.
Right now I can't afford much of anything, anyway. So I guess it's a moot point. Never mind. Carry on.

...Dana, very worthwhile rant, you have every right to be annoyed.
Given a little time I probably create the same character with Genesis using the Genesis Ethnicity morphs. Why does she need to be a separate model when we already have Aiko? Why can't she just be a morph "offshoot" as in the past? I have questioned other figures like Gia, Olympia, (fairly similar physiques), Lilith, Lee, and Giselle (the latter who could be created with Steph6, the Slender Stephanie morphs and a little rescaling of the legs).
I agree. these should be marketed as character morphs, like in the past . Even the "add on" characters for the original Genesis were morphs based off the main "stable" of Gen5 models: (V5, A5, M5, H5, S5, YT5) and cost less than their "parent" figures. Why do we suddenly need so many distinct and separate unique "figures"?
What is worse is that so much new content like clothing, skins, and even poses is "optimised" for a specific character figure and therefore doesn't always quite work well with others in the same gender or the base G2 figure. The whole beauty and selling point of the original Genesis platform was its versatility. With G2F it appears we are seeing more and more of a "retreat" from that concept. I was just on a thread discussing issues that have cropped up with autofit and G2F where fitting of skits and slacks from Genesis and/or V4 is resulting n undesirable and unsightly distortion that either didn't occur with Genesis "Classic" or was mitigated by special tools like the SMRS.
In some ways, it almost seems as if we are reverting back to the Gen3 days where each character was "unique" unto themselves.
Had Zev0 released the Growing Up morphs for Genesis "Classic" first, I most likely would not have bothered much with G2. SSS works perfectly fine with Gen5, GenerationX lets me port in Steph4, Girl4, SheFreak4, Freak4, Kid4, as well as all my Thorne fey characters (including Sylfie), and Autofit has better results across the board than I have experienced with G2.
My two zł worth.
Hard time sleeping last night. Kept rolling over onto my left arm, where the shot was given.
Today is my jury assignment. have no idea how long this will take. blah

Yeah, I've known this for a long time. My doc told me NEVER TAKE YOUR BG MEDS WHEN DRINKING, good way to end up - as said - in a diabetic coma. :ahhh:
I thought she was full of it, but I tried at home one night, skipped my pill and then tested every 1/2 hour.. sure enough, 3 beers & a shot in and down it was going, dropped from about 180 to 98 over the drinking session (but I got pretty plowed). :ahhh:
It's a weird thing, but.. it's a thing.
