Highly derivative of Pixar’s Wall-E but still very cute, this highly accomplished short by VFX graduate Shawn Wang (his Communication University of China graduation thesis film) tells the tale of two exploratory rovers sent to trial plant growth on a potentially inhabitable planet.

Let me share my story about how I changed mobile provider from #Meteor to #O2 / Three Ireland…
Day 1 Sunday – I noticed that O2 had a good Bill Pay Plan with #Iphone6 plus128GB and my old iPhone was getting older and older and my contract with Meteor was due to finish so I decided to move to O2. Spent over €400 on my dream phone and after I filled everything online I read that my new phone would be with me within four working days.
Day 5 Thursday – I hadn’t received anything so decided to call Customer Care where I found out after 20 minutes on the phone that they had sent me email with a request for ID scan and credit card statement. Funny thing was I had never received that email.
Day 6 Friday – I called them again to make sure that all of the documents were fine just to be told all was good and I should get everything in four days.
Day 10 Tuesday – I called them again. A customer service representative told me that she would check it and email me later that day.
Day 11 Wednesday – Received email saying that my order was shipped from the warehouse yesterday and I should receive my delivery within the next day or two, I said sweet. I asked for my phone to be delivered to my work. Phone was delivered later on that day after I finished work but that’s no biggie.
Day 12 Thursday – Happy Day, I finally received my phone, woohoo, but hold on a second. A new sim card was forgotten to be included in the package. I emailed Customer Care to be told that they made a mistake. I say OK, I’m a patient person…
Day 16 Monday – I emailed Customer Care, I was little bit frustrated at this stage.But two or three hours later I finally received my package. woohoo, I had waited so long for this day, sweet! However…
1 they gave me new number which made no sense because I was moving my old number.
2 the sim card they put in was Micro sim card which DOES NOT fit into an iPhoneAt this stage I was like FUPP IT! Later on that day I called Customer Care and told them that I want my money back and I want nothing to do with company which CAN NOT provide simple service and product! Thank you #ThreeIreland you guys have just lost a customer!
FIGHT!

Don’t know if this is generally known but Meteor broadband is censoring thepiratebay.org.
When I rang customer service (1747) saying I couldn’t access the site, the rep said they “didn’t allow piracy”. This is outrageous don’t you think? An Irish broadband provider censoring access to the internet, where no applicable law is in effect
THEN Meteor would probably like to speak to you about an exciting opportunity: the chance to be a Meteor Asstard!
Just look at some of the previous asstards. Now imagine your happy piehole at the bottom.
