How advanced? Multithreading? RAM timings? Me trying to pay attention to three different chats at once?

You mean that thing Charter says I cannot use my own of, yet I still use anyway?

I can't try to understand what you mean; then again, I'm trying to participate in four different chats at once; one random, one sad, one wholesome, and one random.

Charter used to have a policy where you couldn't bring your own modem and had to use the one they provide.

I think they calmed down on that after they bought Time Warner Cable and Bright House, but I'm getting conflicting reports from their customer service. I've heard yes and no.

Oh, I see...

I don't know much about ISPs so I really have no idea.

I feel like I know the wrong things and the things I want to know, I don't know enough.

I'm really struggling to try to decide if I should buy a 3ds/2ds. I'm suddenly very tempted now that Metroid Samus Returns has been announced.

Make it a 3ds if anything. 2ds is kind of a waste of money.

Fucking... probably.

Cause I can't use the damn thing and it pisses me the hell off.

It's Spectrum now. And with the new name comes a "spectrum" of new problems.

I don't know, I'm just guessing I can use mine because I was on Bright House Networks before they became Spectrum, and they allowed you to bring your own. Maybe things are different on the Charter and TWC ends.

TWC is Spectrum, not Bright House.

I think, I dunno, I just want the damn thing to work.

TWC and Bright House became Spectrum. They all became one company.

Oh... cool.

Anyways, do you know how I can figure out why my ports are closed after being forwarded?

I don't know on the TWC end since Charter tends to operate their accquired ISPs on their old network (instead of merging them into their own network). It's basically like they're still their own ISP, just with a new name. I'd guess TWC's IPs are NATed, which I don't get fully since I don't have THAT certification... yet.

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

@Cloggedone, so I poked my head into ST for the first time in forever. Yeah...

Also, guys, does this look OK to you? I say this since I have an IPS monitor and you probably have TN monitors instead.

Okay, well... Maybe I'll try contacting tech support again then.

The body kinda looks a bit too small, but that's really the only issue I can see.

Simpleism. Nice.

I don't even know what my display name is on ST anymore. I used to have it under Suzaku (the one character in Code Geass that Code MENT made really, really dumb), but I cannot find out what it is now.

Oh, I'm not sure if you've ever seen my new art style at all. Here's some samples, and yes, I did take a 5760*1080 screenshot.

That middle one makes me think of something like in a design framework (Material, maybe?). Same with that last one.

I think you're thinking material design, which is something for app GUIs. It's just regular old flat design; I'm too much of a fan of it, and I've used some of these pics in some of my own assignments.

@Cloggedone, I also tried this search query:
