In the Denver metro area, making the switch from CenturyLink fiber over to Quantum before AT&T takes over. Hopefully they don't move me over to the new indoor fiber to eth converter... But if they do I'll have to run that on an extension cord until I can figure out where I want that at.
Hopefully crap doesn't get too messed up for too long.

@landley @pmevzek @jschauma @ryanc @0xabad1dea @ripencc Tho scratch that.

  • I'm getting shafted by my #ISP which is a #cable #monopolist and basically offering me a 109% increased bill with worse contract terms or cancelling me as a client.

Almost as if my objections at @BNetzA & @Kartellamt@social.bund.de / @Bundeskartellamt@social.bund.de / #Bundeskartellamt were 100% justified, cuz noone likes #Vodafone!

  • And the only alternatives are unusably slow and expensive #4G / #5G connectivity and slower #xDSL because OFC the #landlord won't let me install a #fiber to my place (even if I could afford it!)...

Super confusing that vendors don't seem to mention the polish type needed with their #SFP #fiber modules on their website or in their datasheets...
Could one say that APC is typically used by SFP modules whenever a fiber is shared (#GPON, 1000BASE-BX, ...) and UPC otherwise? Or would that be too simple?

Also, would there be any reason to not use APC for most of the (outdoor) cabling, while using short LC/APC to LC/UPC cables in a rack to connect a patchpanel to SFP modules that use LC/UPC?

Linux Is Best

All these years, wanting Fiber Optic, and I finally have it, and someone is going to try to tell me -- They don't have IPv6. 🙄

I am pretty sure they do, and the jerk who brushed me off has no idea what they're talking about. But if they truly do not, I will be greatly disappointed.

What really bothers me is they're only open 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM. I've never gotten a real person on the phone, and when I finally get someone to call me back, they blow smoke up my ass.

"One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled.
It was a time of darkness, it was a world of fear.
It was the age of Gargoyles.

Stone by day, warriors by night. We were betrayed by the humans we had
sworn to protect. Frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years.
Now here in Manhattan...
The spell is broken...
and we live again!"

Gosh, I loved that Cartoon. Little Bruno here is not as impressive as his Cartoon Siblings, but he sure is cute!
