On the 31st of this month a company is coming to my house to connect new internet.

It will cost $5 more than I currently pay, will be 10 times faster and have a 200 GB cap per month (as opposed to 5).

Fuck Yeah.

This is like the best news ever. No human in the civilized world should be forced to only have anywhere close to under 100G of internet.

This is so emotional to me. It means:

  1. I'll be able to communicate with the closest people I have to friends for the last third of each month (you guys).
  2. I'll be able to buy and download games from Steam at will.
  3. I'll be able to play online on my consoles.
  4. I'll be able to record the podcast with greater reliability (which is a huge part of my life).
  5. I'll be able to watch baseball.

I think we can see where this is going. In typical Aspro style, the installation guy will turn up and say, "Oh yah. Some kinda mistake, we don't actually service your area".

Beer isn't civilized. They have that all over the place in Australia after all. We have to celebrate civilization and technology so it has to be martinis and monocles.

Because Australia's size and population densities are convenient excuses.

^ LOL Well, I certainly hope they don't do that. Everyone deserves good internet these days.
