As someone who had to support resold Hughes net networking I can tell you that satellite internet is great at downloading large bulks of information, otherwise you run into a problem of physics, adding 88,000 miles of round trip to your internet connectivity(1 hop to space then back to Hughes network gateway on earth, then back to space and then to you) are going to be super latency, gaming is not recommended nor is streaming, it can also be hella spotty as any weather events at your location or at hughes(which I think is in North Carolina?) will impede the line of sight needed between the dishes. I’ve never heard a good experience with satellite.

Everything has been a downward slide our entire lives which means it also rolls downhill for all the future generations too until someone can yank back on the economic flightstick and get us out of this dive.

TheRagingGeek@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I've been told that I "bottle things up and then explode". How do you not "explode"?5·25 days agoIn my experience if you have a toxic boss you clash with, and HR is unwilling to deal with the problem then they are complicit, which is a far too frequent scenario, if at all possible it sounds like a new job would be the best option for your mental health while you talk to a therapist about the situation to find coping tools in the meantime

TheRagingGeek@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Driving through Nebraska twice nearly broke me. The people who live there must be among the hardest motherfuckers alive.2·2 months agoYeah Lincoln has lucked out compared to Omaha, feels like they’re getting worse every year here I’ve had a couple close calls in recent years that have required us to seek shelter. Power grid has gone out more frequently too. That said I love the city, it’s great for foodies, but driving I-80 through both Iowa and Nebraska I wouldn’t wish on anyone especially if they are at all fatigued, just a whole lot of not much to look at
TheRagingGeek@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Any foods you prefer or can't stand depending on whether they are raw, fresh, pickled, cooked etc?2·2 months agoI imagine my mother was chucking any that looked off or more likely cutting off the parts that were bad and using the rest.
TheRagingGeek@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Any foods you prefer or can't stand depending on whether they are raw, fresh, pickled, cooked etc?2·2 months agoMain one is cucumbers, after my generous neighbors in my childhood gave us 2 large paper grocery bags of cucumbers and my mother used them in everything for the next month I was done for life, can’t stand them raw, but I will eat pickles all day.
The other would be raw tomatoes, the seed slime is not good for my autistic mouth
Did anyone here use the L shift +O shorthand for load? I feel like I never see it mentioned anywhere
Sneakernet was great back then

TheRagingGeek@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the point in getting married?5·3 months agoKind of a niche answer, honestly me and my wife of 20+ years might still be “living in sin” if it wasn’t for her decision to join the military, in order for me to move with her to her home base, we had to be married. It allowed me to visit Alaska which was a great adventure, though I am glad that she is out and we are living normal lives since.

Any of the major banks consider breaches as cost of doing business at their scale compared to smaller banks. My bank prides itself on never having a breach, and it is insufferable to develop code for, but I guess it’s the price of security
