HPPGuy, I rented a house on that street before buying on Lalakea.

I honestly prefer catchment water.

Even though Beaches/Shores has a private water system, you do not have to get and pay for it. There are many people in that area with catchment systems, although I doubt that you really save any money in the long term, after you figure in the cost of supplies, cleaning the tank, replacing the liner, pump, pressure tanks, etc.

I'm in orchidland and we have great internet. We have Verizon Home fusion. It's a 4G connection. We get 30 gigs of data a month which is enough to surf the web, watch streaming tv shows (like a couple shows a day or a movie or whatever). They mount this coffee can sized thing on the side of your house, easy.

It should be noted however that Verizons 4G (And DirectTV/Dish) connections are great for surfing the web and streaming video. However if you work from home and connect to a remote network or remote desktop they are horrible. There is a network latency issue involved. I found this out the hard way.

Wireless has too much variable latency to be useful for any kind of remote IT anything.

Sometimes I wonder how many IT consultants are telecommuting from Puna, because I keep seeing mid-span repeaters in the weirdest places... yes, some of them are for circuits feeding a remote DSLAM, but some of them definitely aren't.

I use a 4G connection at home, and since most of what I do is text based, SSH, SFTP, & IRC are what I use to get stuff done.
Latency is not that much of an issue for me as I'm not doing any X session forwarding or real time collaboration.
I get ping times from 128 ms to 1200 ms.

I use a weasle based dub system. Any variance in my LSMFT confabs are self congratulatory. I never worry about flatangilum oscillation or caffeine intake.

[kalakoa]

Exactly my point: how can anyone tolerate an interactive session with over 200ms RTT?

(Side note: where can you still get Lucky Strikes?)

[Delta9r]

I never did smoke tobacco or drink coffee.
Don't play online games either.

What's the point?
