He does that instead of his job

 

My swamper is a gamer, he is a good hand takes good care of me, and does pretty good driving too, learning truck maintenence fairly well, and if he stays long enough, I will see to it he has his own truck, but I have a feeling he will never be able to hold on to even a paid for truck, because of the game habit. which is sad.

 

Virtual exercise is the future.
Or not.

 

What’s a swamper?

 

Helper, does most of my physical labor for me, he is also training to drive,

 

Verizon unlimited data, go with the new 5g if you can. I use 4g and its fine still.

I cannot charge my laptop on the truck. Its a power-hungry Acer Predator Helios 500, newest model. The inverter needs to be plugged directly to the battery, apparently. The charging ports wont cut it.

My codriver can run his Xbox or super station or whatever it is just fine though.

But as far as internet goes, use verizon and tether your phone to the device you need to give access. If the internet is very slow, the culprit might be your cable. Some cables do not throughput data as fast as others. Use the USB cord that comes with your phone.

I tested this at home and was able to play League of Legends with zero lag. Other games may have higher data requirements to play, but I suspect most games will be playable most of the time within reason. Some areas may may ancient cell towers and other towers might be pushed to capacity. But in general as long as you can keep your device powered youll be fine I think.

 

I recently started getting into racing games. Never interested me before. Bought Project Cars 2, said to myself I got this I drive for a living. Nope I didnt got this at all. Caused a pile up and crashed right into a sign that said "SLOW DOWN".

If I want to race competively I'm going to have to buy a steering wheel and the decent ones cost about 500.00.
