You’re right, but at the same time.
Let’s say a website has an issue and was one time faulty. Clients lost money. Then the site owner is notified of the fault by multiple clients. The site owner uses some words to placate them and goes on with their day.
The site owner then makes some changes to the site, meaning they did have the time and money to pay a developer to update the site, but decides to keep the previous bug in, as a feature, implemented in a different way, this time better at stealing their money.
Sure, the obvious solution is to use another site (the laundromat down the road).
I am a desktop person.
My main reasons for using a smartphone instead of a phone, are:
Until these requirements are met, I will associate Linux mobile with words like, “next” and “tomorrow”.
Welcome to Linux for Mobile.
The next generation OS for keeping your smartphone private and your conversations (kinda) secure.
It’s “next generation”, because we probably won’t have a good enough solution in the lifetime of the current generation’s people.
But if you have both: enough money to buy an extra fairphone for testing and the time and ability to program drivers, please consider it.
Also ~100Mb/s is in no way the average speed in an Indian household.
You’re right. It’s not.
I also don’t see any specific mentions of india in your link up there to that random site.
I don’t see any either. Guess why. Because it only has the top 10, further emphasising the point that :
the average Indian is not doing “Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts”
And Japan has a 300+ Tb/s connection. Your point?
My point is that the average Indian is not doing “Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts” (not sure what banddrift even means, but no).
And yes, a 1Gb/s connection is theoretically available, but how many people are using the ~₹4000/month connection?
Considering how many people tend to just not have Broadband at home, relying just on mobile internet, we can see how things compare with others.
Also, to point to the tread starter, most of the “thousands of” cables that you see on poles in congested areas, are just abandoned cables from older installations which nobody cared to remove.
those wizards must be streaming some Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts with all them wires.
That part is wrong for India, at least.
Here’s a random site with some stats
India, you can expect ~100Mb/s with FTTH and 50Mb/s otherwise. Reliability is even worse.
Rest is right.
I agree with that. And my point being “Start the movement (of buying older cars instead of new ones) now and change the status quo (of high demand for new cars) while also being able to get older cars that cannot be subscriptionified, because later, even the older cars will be such, that they will have a subsciption, making even 2nd handers to pay the OEM”.
This seems to be one way of them trying to prevent piracy.
The situation here is that the game soundtracks I bought on are not prevented from download and I am able to use it on any device I want. Despite that, it never came to my mind to pirate it. Same for the GoG games. But there still exist enough pirated steam games out there.
It can be simply concluded that the people who don’t want to pirate, will buy the stuff and not pirate it no matter how easy you make it, whereas those who want to pirate it will actually be more zealous in pirating stuff that makes it harder to do so.
