I think i saw an article that some companies are not fully buying in because the alleged demand doesnt make sense atm. But you also are next to that giant one so maybe

it's $30/month extra to go from 1G to 10G

thats not bad at all

Biblical levels of internet greed

when you connect to "Ashburn VA", this is where you're connecting btw

This does make your plan to simply beam me internet seem more plausible though

this might be a little easier to visualize

they're taking over everything

the streamer house is in that less dense section of residential right in the middle

lots are 1-2 acres

Did you move here specifically for giga internet or coincidental

wasn't even a consideration

I didn't realize the scale until I started living here

it's sorta nice, because data centres are the best possible industry to neighbor

other than they keep building more and will probably eventually just buy me out

the other fun thing, is because they all need water

there are cool fountains and moats dug everywhere

NTT is building some huge aquaduct thing soon too

are they practically hot springs?

isn't the streamer house vaguely japanese architecturally

Spooky your brain has been fried by 5G

Just a room

It explains everything

That scratching in the walls was them inserting more cables

Rusp, have I shown you the Phijkchu tower I'm going to build when I'm less broke

No

phijkchu hotspring hotel powered by datacenter

Why the fuck are you building a tower

Other than pollution

I'm putting my own 5G network up, PhijkchuNet

the goal is to issue my own SIMs too

I have experience in 4g telecom and wimax

Now that's true autism

obama approved

I'm sorry spooky I'm not connecting to phijkchunet

in collaboration with the dod and homeland security I imagine

phijkchu wiretapping services

I think it's cool to have my own cellular network

that is the end goal

you have the knowhow

when I lived in my parents basement, I was going to put a basestation up in a big tree

store robs vods in space

I essentially just want to be able to have my own network to play around with

Can you launch a satellite with the explicit purpose of beaming me internet

how about I bring over a couple shovels and we trench fibre the last 1 mile to your house Rusp

Yeah that sounds awesome and legal

Sorry Rusp, beaming you internet is not profitable

Just put a Tesla symbol on it and it might be in your price range

I can close link to your house though

so it would be feasible

Yeah this looks feasible to me

ok Rusp, small adjustment to the pricing scheme

we're good now

Why does it need to be 20 months

This is a connection that will cost a lifetime!

but uh, meme's aside, I know people who do this at a micro scale you need 5-10 subscribers and then it sorta makes sense financially

granted, I'm never going to actually do that, it's just fun to mess with

since running an ISP would be cancer

love those urban mesh projects. provides good anonymity too

I don't care about being anonymous online

I'd rather the government look at my shit than spooky ngl

(What's the difference)

the reason people do it is it's cheaper one person buying a 5000/1000 T line for $300/month and selling 100, 50/10 plans for $5/month each

yeah

the under the table nature of it is bonus

reminds me of this spooky https://youtu.be/p52PY_cwIsA

Spooky just convince some people that building a data center in the middle of Ohio is a good idea

Problem solved

A lot of the farmland near me is already being converted to solar panels for some reason

Clearly it wouldn't be a hard sell

nooooo

Rusp we need corn and soy

smash those solar panels

Everyone is pissed about it because it absolutely tanks your property value to be near them

lol
