          While I do agree with your post I feel like I shouldn't have to be treated like this because of a few bad apples.
          Umm.............................
          You should not have to check at all once it has been authenticated Coco.
          I would be looking at something else if I were you dude, cause I have never heard of a time where people have to constantly authenticate -ever-. Authenticating for subscription games to pay a bill? Yeah, I have had that happen enough, but stand alone products, even online multiplayer?
          Never.
          I would be looking for other causes there Coco.

            It's Just Cause 3 on PC..

            It checks for updates every so often and does an authentication and login every time you run the game unless you are not online. Single player game but it has online leaderboards and scoring of stuff that just shouldn't be there in a single player game.

              Sometimes I get the impression that restroom stalls are being used to surf the internet, send text messages, etc. instead of its intended use.
              Waddya think?

                I was using a stall for intended purpose #2 one time and a biological noise occurred as a side effect. A voice from the next stall said something like "be quiet, I'm on the phone".

                    Did he tell you to not flush until he was off his cell? Just kidding.

                    My concern is that people may be spending more time than necessary because they're surfing the internet, texting, etc.

                    My office building is three floors with one restroom each for men and women per floor with 3-4 stalls. On more than one occasion, starting on the 1st floor, I've had to search for one that was available on the 2nd & 3rd, and a few times, returned back to the 1st to see if it's free.

                    Major bummer when there's an hour-long meeting in 10 minutes and time is running short.

                          Peeve: Auto-flush toilets that flush after placing the paper cover on the seat.

                          Solution: Drape a strip of toilet paper over the sensor.

                            One of my biggest peeves right now is that for 8 years now, my boyfriend's mother and family have had nothing but troubles. First illness after illness, then bankruptcy and being constantly broke, and now the washer leaked two inches of water all over the basement floor with carpet on the floor. What next? When will they FINALLY get a break?

                              Using the toilet for the internet, wonder what they were browsing that it had to be private?

                              At least it's not a couple having sex in a stall. That could be awkward.

                                I have to admit that I read my twitter-feed on occasion. Hey, it's the only place at work where no one can bother me for anything.
