don't let your kids grow up to care about internet service providers.

the fiber man is coming to my house on saturday morning and anything greater than a complete fuckup will leave me delighted with the service.

1000/1000 is probably a bit excessive tbqh, but at&t meters anything slower. gonna be nice finally having real upload speeds.

i'm sure it's just a coincidence that the cable company announced that they are going to be rolling out gigabit in the area via docsis 3.1 just after at&t lit up the fiber, but given their current pricing it will probably cost a lot more than the gigabit fiber through ma bell and will be some lopsided 1000/35 nonsense like other areas which already have it.

I've highest tier of copper through the last two upgrades, but this was the first time they sent me a promo on the fiber that made it worth it to me to sit around for a saturday and actually get installed.
