There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.

Couldn't be a pirate even if I wanted to... :sorcerer:

Whoops, the first test I took was about the same as yours, El Numbero, but the second had a little better results.

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

All the major ISPs around here suck. Faster would be nice, but I'd hate to give any of them more of our money. :sorcerer:

 

Edit: Except for Hurlshot's Wildblue, my Sympatico is tied with Kor's Telus for lowest ISP rating at 2.6. Woo! Go us!

I want to know what the star rating means. User ratings of service co?

 

 

 

Edit: I did it again just to see how different it'd be moment to moment:

Btw, don't feel too impressed. That's just local. Anything near W. coast isn't bad/stays above 20-25, but you test from a server on the East coast and it sinks like a stone. It doesn't matter what your rated speed is vs:worldwide surfing...too many other factors.

It's the rating that people have given to their ISPs.

 

Obviously this doesn't show real-world performance very accurately, but it does matter for downloading stuff off Steam etc.

Makes sense, I figured. And in that case, I'm surprised users didn't rate Comcast, business account version or not, a bit lower. It is, after all, still Comcast. :shrugz: I wish upload speeds were at least twice as fast, it's frustrating....tho I can maybe understand why companies don't want to do that.

 

Is downloading from Steam always local-ish to you, or something?

I guess they have a server around here somewhere, because I usually get my full speed, around 1-1.1MB/s. But even downloading from Fileshack's US server I get up to their server limit 750KB/s.

Ugh

what the, don't you live in the city, and didn't Al Gore personally dig down cables for the information super highway internets.

 

I moved out to the country a few months ago. Peaceful, but the internet options stink. I will try something different next year, I'm locked into a contract for now.
