this happened to me years ago. I was close enough to the exchange that I was (copper) wired to it directly instead of a local cabinet and for some obscure UK reason, it was not allowed to put the new generation DSL hardware inside an exchange so I was stuck with an old sub 10mpbs connection.

the clearly very difficult to imagine idea of "just rewire me to a cabinet" was beyond BT, in the end I just moved house.

How recently was this? From a summer spent installing racks in 2007, there's a good chance the exchange was full and still waiting for all the 50V POTS poo poo to be ripped out to make way for more racks.

3 years I think. Iirc the plan was to put a small cabinet inside the exchange and connect the lines to the building to that, then the mini cabinet to the main exchange.

You're probably right that the exchange was also full though!

Keep calm and Harry on.
GNU make has so many built-in rules and assumptions that if you have a C file hello.c, and type 'make hello', it will compile it even if you don't have a makefile.

make is pretty decent if you do not mind in-tree builds (just git clone for each different target and config you may have)

i like how everything in a certain windows directory is called a tool except for the command line interface utility.

i do not like how though, i feel like i need to go on the record with that.

i really dont like how smug that loving gnu looks

actually i met a dude who had that exact expression all the time, except he was a windows user

he wore a "rm -rf /bin/laden" shirt, which i barely even had a chance to notice before he told me and explained that it means "put osama bin laden into the recycle bin" while eating chips loudly

i dont remember if i started explaining "n*xen" (lol remember that?) to him but i probably did, and was maybe equally insufferable but at least i was right :hai:

i need to reiterate that he took the "bin" to mean both bin laden and recycle bin. motherfucker.

This is a right opinion

I would love to wear GNU shirts and poo poo, except for that loving gnu looks like if :goonsay: and :smug: hosed in the 70s.

I can practically hear it say "m'lady" every time I see it. It even has a literal neckbeard.

The GNU gnu is even worse than Tux in terms of mascots, and that's really saying something.
