Today, knowing I'd be in a place with less-than-excellent connectivity, I came prepared.

@stefano where ya at?
I've heard that in certain parts of West Virginia, the schist-lined hollers cause any RF signals to bounce endlessly in a parabolic bowl and can jam itself.

@stefano You'd think something like that would set off all kinds of alarm bells. I mean, even a *cursory glance* at a data transfer rate diagram would show a >>95% drop in throughput pretty clearly, even if it is brief in duration.
Maybe they have a problem that needs solving? ;-)

@stefano i had a similar experience in our house in Umbria this year. It's in a rural area with no cabled Internet at all. So i came well prepared, bringing with me an LTE-Fritzbox and huge external antennas from Germany (tested there prior leaving). All i got was 1-2 Mbit down, but 15 Mbit upload speed. This told me, the service (TIM) was seriously overbooked. I do get >200 Mbit down on 5G in the near city. But not on LTE in our village.
I bit the bullet and got Eolo which works nicely so far. -

@stefano This is a pretty curious case. Which Mikrotik model are you using? Not that it seems relevant for the problem, I’m just always interested in 4G routers.
If you want to uncover more of the problem, this community can likely help: https://www.itnog.it/
But I bet know your way better around the scene in Italy than me. -

@stefano Where I live we had the incumbents fibre being cut twice in the past 6 years or so. Effects: DSL from that incumbent and resellers using their infrastructure were down. Card payments at many retailers were down and the incumbents mobile network was dog slow b/c they seemed to fall back to a microwave link with a lot less bandwidth and a lot more mobile traffic now.
It‘s one reason why I maintain 2 links w/ different tech/infrastructure at home. Not everybody can/has the option though.

@randomgeek What always amazes me is that it's so easy to be a good person, and yet people choose to be dickheads.

Work crew shares transphobic commentary around misgendering an inmate.
Then rambling with each other about political correctness, and "woke is dead."
I glance up.
"No I'm not. I'm right here."
Little bit of defensive backtracking from those present. "I don't really care about what they say they are but PC and woke is just—"
Me: "I aspire to respectful and empathetic communication, partly because it pisses off the people I don't like."

@max @bbacc io per lavoro ho un pacchetto proton. Se non ti serve il cloud criptato, un chatons dei due che ti ho scritto prima ti saranno sufficienti.

@dbtechyt sorry to hear that. I quite liked Ricky Gervais' new show Mortality. The Big Bang Theory and Parks and Recs are always good comfort shows. Big fan of Silicon Valley as well (I might have the humor of a teenage boy though) and the IT Crowd.

Just as smooth as the first time, Donny doesn't disappoint 🎁
