Pretty cool. I wonder what it would be like to put that on while intoxicated.

It's A Fast Pig!
good thing we don't have to worry about getting fast internet here in the US. Pretty much everyone has one choice in their area. Time Warner/Comcast and that's it. cable monopoly. When I lived in Rochester there was either Time Warner or dial up through some local company. Verizon wanted to come in and lay Fi-Os but they weren't allowed because of territory protections in place to keep the local dial up service in business. It was a huge stink. People were pretty mad since they rules basically sheltered an obsolete technology and time warner wouldnt cover certain areas. This allowed TW to maintain a monopoly since the people who couldnt get their service have to use dial up and it meant that the dial up company wouldn't go out of business with just enough customers thereby keeping true high speed internet fiber networks out.

Comcast and Time warner can go to hell. Not that I really like Verizon much better but I am willing to pay for fast internet.

'No contract' services are good bc you can jump from one cable service to another one the '2 year promotion' expires.

They could probably simulate it haha.
I'm actually talking about the same lag simulation but after drinking 10 bottles of beer. :beer: :giggle: The egg cracking part was pretty funny.
