I've been waiting for my FTTH activation for over a year. It seems like it's almost there, but the construction site hasn't been finished.
OpenFiber seems to have left some situations pending, proceeding extremely slowly and leaving some areas out.On Tuesday afternoon, I reported the situation to the Municipality's mobile office, which comes to my neighborhood once a week.
They took charge of the report.On Thursday, they confirmed they had urged OpenFiber to take action.
This morning, some technicians arrived and went to the external pole, where the cable arrives and the "box" was installed, everything was assigned, etc. There's still a part missing - but the municipality seems to have given the provider a two-month ultimatum.
My report unlocked the construction site and the completion of the works. Am I sure they will finish within the deadline? No. But I am sure that, now, something will move more quickly.
Fingers crossed!

FTTH can be consisted with several types of topologies / technologies used.
Most common 3 patterns would be:
*Simple media converter. No sharing of a fiber end to end, at least
per wavelength.*Active Optical Network (active star). One or more 1:n star topology,
each of the stars are controlled by managed channel divider.
Upstream side of fibers are shared.*Passive Optical Network. One or more 1:n star topology,
in each of stars, signals are splitted into n downstream and
merged into 1 upstream using optical prism.
As all downstream fibers receive exactly the same signals,
each sides of all terminals need to be strictly synchronized
and each packet is needed to contain initiator and target
to determine the packet to be for /from which terminal.Basically, the latter, the cheaper.
And if the upstream terminal has no free connector, need to wait until any of them are freed or introduced additional terminal.
Active star has another bottleneck on supply chain, channel divider. This is (AFAIK) less common, thus, possibly hard to quickly obtain. -

Every time I see FTTH I read it as FGTH, which means Frankie Goes To Hollywood in my eighties' clubber mind (Relax, don't do it). Those were the days...

Maybe I'm too old for all these matters

@angel you are not. And memories are precious, both for the people who have lived then and the ones reading about them

@angel you are. I'm just lucky to be in contact with great people like you.

@thatgiga @bbacc secondo me sono due tipi di buono diverso
soprattutto se su quello alla nostra maniera metti burro e parmigiano, che son la morte sua

@alxd you're missing the other half of human knowledge, project gutenberg (also available as a kiwix dump), but it adds another 90GB or so.
currently my “sum of human knowledge” disk is at around half a TB, of which 395G are kiwix dumps (the rests are mostly distros and a few odd small things), and it's a bit more than would easily fit on a pendant, but the pendant look would be really cool!

@Soft_machine @bbacc secondo me visto l'approccio il posto migliore dove stare sono le mura (certo, per stare sulle mura il biglietto non serve, ma...)
i tendoni hanno come scopo di venderti fumetti e giochi (ok, volendo essere generosi in qualche caso “di farti conoscere fumetti e giochi”) e gadget (questi senza opzioni generose)
le mura sono più una festa di carnevale, però nerd
(anche le strade in generale, ma le mura soprattutto)

per la serie muffa consiglia cose:
Hal & Harper, serie tv appena uscita.
arrivato al terzo episodio e mi sta piacendo molto. speriamo non sminchino tutto alla fine. ma con sto cast sono fiducioso.
quale cast? Mark Ruffalo, Lili Reinhart e Cooper Raiff. adoro tutti e tre un casino.

@thatgiga @bbacc Io ricordo quello che mi faceva mia nonna quando stavo male. Non so che quantitativo usasse, so solo che ci metteva il burro e tanto parmigiano, per farmi riprendere. Adesso mi mancano entrambi: il riso burro e parmigiano e mia nonna 😭
