Thanks Matt. Went with a faster plan. Cable 18mb/s download and 512kb/s upload. In Toronto we seem to have many indipendant companies reselling bell and togers' services. And somehow doing it for a better price.we will be piggybacking of of rogers via a company called teksavvy. I'll be happy when i can stop using my phone for all of the houshold internet.

Toronto is a cool place, but I miss my friends. I know Iwasn'taround that much lately, but i feel my life is richer for having known you. I just wanted to say thanks as it's not something we do very often these days. Thanks

Remember this from Star Trek: Whales?

Not quite aluminum, but how's this grab you? Why wood pulp is world's new wonder material:

Well, not only is [nanocrystalline cellulose] transparent but it is made from a tightly packed array of needle-like crystals which have a strength-to-weight ratio that is eight times better than stainless steel. Even better, it's incredibly cheap.

As I recall (it's been a while), cable theoretically has a slowdown when you're in a high shared situation, although I haven't really noticed that kind of effect in a while. If you're in a densely populated area, maybe it makes sense to go DSL?

It's on the low end of the scale by today's standards, but unless you're constantly torrenting while voiping and streaming stuff simultaneously you should be fine.

I have a preference for cable, though that's more to do with the fact that here (cable == Shaw) while (dsl == Telus)

Im trying to figure out internet here in toronto, but dont remember how fast the internet was back in e town with shaw. Will 3mb/256kb cover the bacic interneting for me and phd level downloads for Merin? Also, anyone have preferences regarding cable vs dsl?

This is a great idea.

Anyone else remember Red Meat?



Milkman Dan and Bug-eyed Earl are the best!

Albert that video is insane. Also super catchy.

We should probably build a Tesla museum.
