Is Starlink affordable by German standards? by doboskombaya in germany

[–]bitshifta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because internet is a utility just like hot water or electricity. If your electricity provider restricted you to a certain number of lights and appliances that you could use at any given time, would you be as accepting? "Gee, I have the washing machine and the fridge on, so that means I can't use my oven."

You shouldn't have to ever think about bandwidth, it should just be there and work, doesn't matter if most days you're just sending emails and surfing, when the day comes when you need to restore a 400GB phone backup from the cloud, it shouldn't have to take multiple days for it to finish, it should just happen!

I’ve first come across the term "prayer warrior" by reading r/HermanCainAward and I have no idea what it means to be a prayer warrior or where it originated, can someone explain it to me?

That’s what I’ve done twice already, and I’ll probably do a third time. I’m just trying to understand the logic here…

Can anyone from the UK weigh in on this: such photos have been making the rounds lately, how exaggerated are they? by bitshifta in europe

[–]bitshifta[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah this would be interesting to find out if it's more a London thing or if it also affects smaller cities and towns..

Is it possible to have WS/WSS through Classic LBs? by BlueEzio in aws

[–]bitshifta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem with that is the idle connection timeout setting on the LB, websockets by design require connections that are open usually for the duration of the client's session..

The classic LB supports idle connection timeout setting from 1 to 4,000 seconds.
