The fun after a lightning strike. Connectivity gone. Who're you going to call without working broadband link? What about that urgent message your fridge want to sent? Disaster strikes indeed! Australian Adventures. "The right to repairable broadband befits a supposedly critical utility A bolt of lightning has caused me days of misery, because the fix requires too much proprietary tech" www.theregister.com/2022/03/16/panic_stations/ |

Someone dug a hole last week and cut off the entire island of Tasmania by hitting a wire.
Don't talk to me about wifi or data speeds. I can't wait to go back to Isaan so I get decent connection again.

^^| Ask Elon Musk. Maybe he'll take pity and send you a StarLink terminal for free. You'll be so happily surprised you will forget to ask the price of a simple subscription.  |
