You stand before a solid, steel server rack—cool to the touch, humming faintly with energy. It’s tucked away, out of sight from the fiat world’s noise and chaos. No lights flash. No screens beckon. But etched into its surface, engraved deep into brushed metal, are these words:

“I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.”

There is no keypad. No fingerprint scanner. The door opens not with credentials, but comprehension. It opens to those who understand what the oath means—not as poetry, but as protocol.

On the other side lies a terminal. A clean interface. Lines of code. A Bitcoin node humming silently. A L

I know this saying normally pertains to the world going to crap in a hand basket, and has a negative connotation. But, doesn’t it also bode well with our toxic maxi viewpoint that we will stack sats, own nothing and be happy about it? 😉

Almost seems like “they” are speaking to my soul when they say that. I’ll take it as a compliment. Happy to own nothing EXCEPT Bitcoin.

I have a business computer repair client that I'd love to get off of an asymmetric coax cable ISP connection they are using.

My questions are: I thought as long as you are less 1000' from the terminal, the installers have cables that will reach you? There is also a terminal that is less than 200' feet from their front door but it's not lit for some stupid reason. What can I do? I know getting a hold of anything other than a foreigner is next to impossible, but they NEED to be put on fiber. It's hard uploading their 9 computers' hourly backups to the cloud on 20mbps upload and the gig upload would be a Godsend. Please help!! :) I'm in a West Virginia market, by the way.

Anybody happen to know when some new 14g bags are going to be at dispensaries? Do they have to order them from Armory? Is Armory just out and that’s why it’s so dry?

I lucked out and picked up 3 of them for $84 to $96/half when I saw them over the past month, but seems they really went as fast as they came.

Hope someone has the inside scoop on Armory’s “AltSol 14g offering operation” - it’s a very nice savings with 20%+ discounts, especially.

Hi all, first time poster here. Been building a scraper for the past few days, but I am completely stuck on how to get differentiate between pricing of options for the same product in my CSV. I can pull ALL of the pricing from the menu of items page, but then it will get them out of order in the python lists because pricing for one item with variations/options will end up taking up multiple spaces in the list, and make them match up with the wrong indexes of the item name/brand/etc.

Can anybody help?

TL;DR:

How can I see some maps of my area? Anybody with access to https://www.fiberlocator.com want to do me a solid and show me the xgpon maps of my area?! I'll love you forever...

Longer story:

I've been referring people like mad through the "My Frontier Customer Referrals" program and I'm getting a lot of declined referrals because people aren't coming up as eligible.

The most recent one, this morning, said it wasn't available because the website doesn't even show the correct addresses at the location. Says there are apartments there (that are lit and ready to go) but the address itself says unserviceable.

This system is

Asking because I'd like to get the minimal amount of latency possible from the connection from my fiber->10gig RJ-45 ONT to my NAS and servers.

I'm going to work on getting the rest of my wired network changed over to primarily fiber so the ONT's 10gig RJ-45 will go from ethernet to fiber in the TP-Link wifi router. It seems that's the only point where I would absolutely need an ethernet cable in the whole setup. The rest would be 10Gbe fiber from the TP-Link clear back to the switch and the NAS and server's NIC cards.

So, I was wondering just how much latency is added by having something longer than a 6 inch patch cable between them?

Is the amount of latency added negligible on a 6

I know some of the people that hang out here work directly with bringing the fiber rollout plans to life and work in the field for Frontier or are a contractor for them. I'm just curious, don't really care if it's only locker room talk? I also ask because Google Fiber is about to roll out 8gig and I think AT&T already has? Lot of 10gig ISPs on the Utopia fiber network (Utah) as well.

Nobody needs that speed, but it's nice to know what's being talked about and whether or not steps are being taken to go to an 8/10G network in the next year or so. Hell, for all I know, the equipment is already in place to go to 8 and 10G and it's just not offered yet. 🤷‍♂️

Okay guys, had my 5gig installed a week ago, and I'm STRUGGLING to see more than 3 on the upload.

Frontier techs brought out their VEeX MTX150 (https://www.veexinc.com/products/mtx150) and tested my connection to the closest speedtest.net server and I saw, with my own eyes, that it pulled 5200/5200 through my TP-Link router supplied by them, so I KNOW the ONT and TP-Link router has the full 5 gig upload capability. My issue is, running from the 10 gig port on my router to an Intel X540-T2, I can only ever get 5/3.

​

So my question is: what are YOU using to see the full 5gig upload on a speed test? I am considering a Netgate 6100 or UDM

What am I missing?

How do you say on your corporate website that you have over 1Tbps as backhaul (Source: https://i.imgur.com/a0ZSrNU.jpg )and then sell 5gbps chunks at a time? Let’s just say they have 1999Gbps to sell on the backbone… that’s only 400 5 gig customers.

Yes, I’m aware a VERY small group of people actually use their entire allotted bandwidth at any given time but, how much can you over provision before we are back to the early 2000s when DSL lines and cable lines were being oversubscribed and everyone saw a huge hit in performance?

Basically what I’m saying is: if ONLY 400 people out of their millions (I’m guessing since they are in 25 states) of subscribers run 5 gig speed
