douglasg14b, to technology in Ziply Fiber launches 50-Gig residential service for $900 per month

They are pretty transparent on their terms on their website. No caps on any of their other plans.

You are using shared bandwidth like all other residential plans, meaning that if there is no available bandwidth on the network you get what you get. That’s the catch.

Turns out when you install bundles of 80Tb/s fiber long haul interconnects. Upselling to enthusiasts can be profitable.

Time to get a couple friends and some jack dolleys. Jack the truck up, and move it somewhere else, preferably in an equally awkward position.

I think you’re missing the point in that we already have a lot of mass shooters because society has failed them.

This is a symptom of our society.

Trying to absolve society of its involvement is essentially just turning a blind eye to the problem and hoping it goes away. Which is exactly the problem that we have.

This is simply taking an actual nuanced thought on the situation instead of letting your emotions regulate your thoughts and turning everything into a false dichotomy.

I don’t think that the blame assigned is in the literal sense I think it is in the philosophical sense.

Meaning the chain of events that led here had many MANY interruption points where society could have prevented this from escalating. There is no 1 person to blame for this entire thing, it’s a shared societal burden.

It’s essentially the Swiss Cheese Model for society and social outbursts.

Edit: I’m not saying what happened wasn’t wrong, I’m saying is that we can prevent this shit, and we keep failing over and over.

@douglasg14b@lemmy.world avatar

It really does read like a PR post.

There’s some bold confident statements in there that are definitely not really accurate from the standpoint of software and system security.

Yeah definitely not worth doing a comparison to LastPass but doing the comparison to bitwarden and then local only ones like keypass/KeepassXC may be worthwhile

Plenty of cats will let you snuggle and love like this (not all ofc) Cats are more of a companionship, they will only let people they trust love on them.

Please tell me no one thinks that evidence < anecdotes? Please, for my sanity…


The sad state of knowledge & logic aside:

There is SIGNIFICANT value to proving something we all think is true. This means action can be taken, it can be cited in argument, and is actually credible as opposed to a “feeling” that’s it’s worse.

Sure, we “know” it’s worse. I’ve experienced search results getting worse and worse for what seems like nearly 10 years now. But I have no proof of this, as such it’s an anecdote.

I always wear at least a helmet and wrist guards. Honestly should also have elbow guards as well.

The road surface ended up eating my elbow, side of my torso, and knee.

It all healed up fine.

I’ve had… 5 significant falls. Those two, one on a trail where I hit mud and the wheel cut sideways, one hitting one of those buckled pieces of sidewalk at night, and another on a gold course when I hit a hidden hole that stopped the board dead.

Should probably get knee & elbow guards really.

Ah yes, if only we did this one easy thing! It so easy!

If it was that easy/simple they would be out of business already. Unfortunately reality doesn’t always line up with these “simple” solutions, as evidence by… reality.

@douglasg14b@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a nice sci-fi thought, but also not really how it works irl.

Physical proximity is not really a factor here.

There’s a lot more going on at all levels that makes this absurd at best. Movies are not a good representation of reality, they can’t be if they are meant to be entertaining.

If only they had manufacturing control over the product, they could have built it in or something.

They built the devices for years with user complaints and injuries asking for a better warning system.

And then they release a whole NEW product lineup without any safety improvements from years of experience.

This is just simping, you’re ignoring the facts and the reality and are somehow finding it understandable that a device manufacturer never manufactured devices with safety in mind, after years of being told to manufacturer devices with safety in mind…
