    Hmm... ISP free speed increase from 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

    it is surprisingly BAD idea in quite a few climate zones ... as you rightfully mentioned - taken into consideration production costs, repair costs etc. we may be much better with wooden poles in every place that has substantial humidity and temperature shifts :)

    Hmm... ISP free speed increase from 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

    hey hey hey ... BEER you say ? Hell I have an idea as well. Your point was - "big" backbone guys could restrict it ... Xist's idea was - "big" backbone guys alone can't free it up, as "small" guys could restrict it as well ... you both were on the same page the whole time. Reality is -...

    Hmm... ISP free speed increase from 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

    Anything underground is tremendously more expensive to fix, check etc, than anything above ground ... with electricity it also means hilariously expensive insulation of all kinds that has to be maintained at all length of the cables (as opposed to be given for free (by air) most of the time :)

    Selling a green Constellation nets +$133k (Video)

    @Rear_Intruder - I think you don't understand it correctly ... the way I understand it - you will have a chance to get back any ship you've purchased once ( no matter how you did it first time ) ... for LTI ships it will be just a question of waiting for some time, for non-LTI but real money...

    Hmm... ISP free speed increase from 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

    I started with some advanced zyxel, but can't hold it for long (it was too expensive equipment), and stuff I continued with was a courier 2400 with nice hardware implementation of mnp4, so I guess I could say "me too"

    The ultimate mouse for SC?

    Whoops .. I believe I was misunderstood. I love to see 1.5 mil DPI mouse of course ... what I was saying is - with pivot movements it is impossible to get high resolution precisely anyway due to accidental foundation movements

    Hmm... ISP free speed increase from 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

    While you are absolutely correct, this doesn't disprove the assumption of NN encouraging monopolies to form, and hence I'm still very interested in what exactly Deroth is assuming and why.

    Hmm... ISP free speed increase from 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

    @Deroth - sorry for my confusion, but could you please provide one quote in regards of NN that favors big ISPs or doing anything suspicious at all ? Thanks
