Reminder that Comcast throttles bandwidth until services pay up, spoofs TCP RST packets if you try to use P2P clients, and pays off regulatory bodies to keep themselves above the law.

If I had a better phone and a stable signal, I would literally have faster internet if I got an unlimited data plan and tethered my phone to my computer.

Hughes used to have daily limits, they've gotten better in the last 2 years or so, but getting 2x better is worthless when they still need to get 100x better to even compete with a standard broadband connection.
Verizon is the main cell provider out in da cuntry where people get satellite shit. Verizon has a ton of bullshit rules and fees if you want to use your phone's built-in tethering mode. You can get a 3G card and a phone line for the purpose of internet, but gone are the days where you could get unlimited data, IIRC you can only get 2-50GB per month at $25-$180 per month.

I have one of the old unlimited lines at $30/month, and regularly use +150GB/month, DL and UL are normally 100KB/s and 80KB/s, respectively.

Teksavvy's capped package only charges you past the cap up to the price of an unlimited package then stops.

There's literally no reason to buy the more expensive unlimited package. Worst case scenario you go over and pay the unlimited package price, but on the months you don't go over, it'll be the cheaper 300GB price.

Win/win

Also, Teksavvy doesn't count any bandwidth between 2 and 8 am, so if you're often doing shit late at night, you'll likely never hit your cap.

Because they used those billions to line the pockets of congressmen.

Our government is FAIR and BALANCED. Congress can't just take tax money and put it in their own pockets. No.

They have to give it to a friend first and then the friend can give it back to them as a personal gift.

I dont know but the shit the FBI pulled it blowing up in their face.

The plan was to freeze his assets so he couldnt afford lawyers to defend him at his extradition trial. What happened was that heaps of lawyers did work for free and after a bit of digging it turned out that the charge against him in the US was actually a made up charge becase there isnt technically anything illegal under the then current US law which he did.

Because extradition laws here in NZ prohibit people being sent to foreign countries if they are likely to face an unfair trial hes probably going to stay here in NZ along with his two friends who are also on trial for the same thing.

I have Charter in St. Louis and their customer support never fails to rectify things, but I do have a few complaints.

- At my old place, the wire that came down from the line into my house had been corroded and I got shit tier internet. Play WoW for 30 seconds, lag spike, disconnect. Wash rinse repeat. They told me to buy a new modem, so I did. That did not fix anything. It took months, but eventually got a guy to come out and check my signal in person and he instantly fixed the issue.
- My internet has gone down in my new place (apartment complex) because they came out and meant to shut someone else off but wound up shutting down the whole apt complex instead.
- I don't /quite/ get advertised speeds. It's still very fast.

It means it's a clean dump of the original game data. Back in the old days (early 90s, when these systems were still in use) ROM dumps would frequently have an "intro" attached from the group that provided them - especially if they had to crack some copy-protection.

Current DOCSIS implementations can get, I believe, 160mbps down and 120mbps up.

Fiber is more future-proof, as it has an overall higher bandwidth than the RG8 coax or whatever is up on the poles now. It depends heavily on what kind of fiber it is, though - whether it's something like GPON or a real direct-to-home individual fiber optic cable.

With fibre optic cable you can put a lot more data down it by just using a different light wavelength, you can also more easily find where breaks in the cable are and you get less attenuation per meter.

With coax its not only now more expensive to produce than fibre but you have to have signal repeater stations more often and ultimately cant send as much data down it because you only have one path by which to send data, and while there are tricks you can do to increse the data rate it provides diminishing returns.

Wrong. Fibre OP is all over Canada. I get 60 down, 20 up.

>>258931367
Well my comcast is shit.

So lucky you.

>>258933054

Yeah, it used to be $40 for half of that download, but Comcast actually recently doubled the speed for the entire Northeast US market for free. So I still pay $40.

>>258932941

Funny, because I don't see any offers in BC for fiber from Bell, Telus, Shaw, or Rogers.

Same here. I don't have crazy speed but I can do anything comfortable and downloads still don't take long. Only 28 a month. Google fiber will be available next year. Probably will get that.

I wish I had Comcast, I have this shitty ISP called Blue Ridge, which is a complete monopoly but my town doesn't want to realize it because there are random spots where one can get Fios.

I pay $57/mo for 10 up/1 down

>>258928221
When you sit down it's all cool (unless the airco is off with 30+ celsius outside like I had) and then you have the take-off which is indeed cool.
But then it starts, the constant loud engine noise, the guy in front of you who can't sit still, you legs and butt becoming stiff, your entire body drying out (seriously dry in a plane), you start to notice how fucking dirty a plane actually is, you find that piece of food under your armrest, the DUNG sound of the crew becomes annoying, the food is shit, you want to sleep but you just can't
etc
etc

Not that fun

4/5 it's ok

Could pay 10€ more and get 350/35 but don't need more than 100/10 right now. It downloads everything faster than I even notice. Might update if I start streaming in 4k.

>>258933272
It is though, that's why there's more than 1 pilot. Are you just stupid.

>>258933131
Did you even see the picture I replied to? That's clearly a gun you nigger.

He probably doesn't even know how to aim properly, that shit takes time. Pilots train this hypothetical situations all the time, they can land a plane perfectly fine if they get shot in the foot, arm, leg or neck.

Fucking /v/ I swear, pretending they know the shit they're talking about.

no, you see I'm calling YOU a nogunz. Even though you might be mentally a child, you are not THAT child.

>He probably doesn't even know how to aim properly
No dune coons do. It's not just a stereotype or myth, watch some combat footage. Somehow they still hit things occasionally.

>that shit takes time.
For long range shooting sure. For a pistol under 10 yards? You would have to purposefully miss, even if it was your first time ever shooting. Even a child could figure it out. How big do you think a cockpit is anyway?

>Fucking /v/ I swear, pretending they know the shit they're talking about.

Yes. We've had fiber set up in cities for quite a while now, they just never bothered to use it.

Because nobody cares about Australia.

I'm not saying that to be an asshole, it's really why they haven't bothered yet. Beyond that, they're an American company and want to focus on America first.

That's why there's more than one fucking pilot on board you retard.

>>258934841
After the first shot he's blinded from the knockback and smoke.

Do you even fucking know how fucking retarded you are? I just told you pilots have training in this kind of shit, they'll bring out the teargas they hiding under there left armpit at these times.
They've literally been trained a 100 times over for this fucking situation.

That is to say that no guns actually ever get on board anyways.

Tfw 1080p episodes don't exist. Literally everything is upscaled 720p.

Like I wish I was kidding, where do you find 1080p series? Unless it's a BD release.

I can't tell if you're trolling or if you really just know absolutely nothing about guns. Protip: the current year is not in the 1700s, this is not an issue.

Plus you know they teach kids to use guns young in the middle east? You see a twelve year old, he's already proficient with an AK by that age. They have a warrior culture, it's no different from Europe in the middle ages-men taught their sons to use weapons as early as they could hold them.

>Do you even fucking know how fucking retarded you are? I just told you pilots have training in this kind of shit, they'll bring out the teargas they hiding under there left armpit at these times.
They've literally been trained a 100 times over for this fucking situation.

leaning towards trolling now

>>258936763

>Sounds stupid to me. But hey, whatdo I know.
Not much apparently, because they could absolutely dominate the US market but are choosing not to. They're instead giving cable companies a chance to become competitive. If they cared about maximum profit they could charge a lot more and expand a lot faster.

It seems at least for now google would rather let others deal with the infrastructure, as long as they're capable, while sticking to the shit they already know.
