@gemlog No, I don't mean that we should all go live in the woods offline, but I'd probably be fine with something like LoRa in the said woods. It was only five years ago when I finally fixed my home connection to be 100 Mbps — until then I've been paying for a plan that was like 30 Mbps (cheapest one anyway), but I've been using only 10, I was pretty sure that my cable was just damaged, but it's embedded in the was I never cared enough to fix that.
@gemlog Until I've decided to give another ISP a try — these guys have told me that colors of the wires weren't there just for kicks, that it wasn't called twisted pair for nothing, the wires are twisted in a very specific way to reduce interference, that I have to use particular wires, not just match them at both ends 🤣
So now I finally have a 100 Mbps connection and that comes in handy as I host Plemora now. and I'm also into Bittorrent, but I'm mostly seeding.
@gemlog No, I do download stuff too — movies and such, but I barely watch them anyway so I just seed them til I run out of space and have to delete some of it. Well, at least someone else benefits from my fast connection, I also have an external IP-address — that's why I'm able to host my stuff without paying extra for it, and it's important for torrents too as everyone can establish a connection to you.
