  • A much better way of putting my point.

    The fact that someone like him was elevated to the status he was coupled with someone feeling they needed to go as low as killing another human to make things better is insane. I hope American history (as long as America still exists long enough for this to become history) looks back at this like we looked back at other huge events in American history and some 4th grade teacher someday has to try to explain to our great-grandchildren how we let things backslide to this point followed immediately by a chapter on the first presidential debate held entirely virtual with augmented reality and holograms.


  • I can’t say I feel sorry for him, specifically.

    But anyone who can’t agree with the fact that us being here, where a man (whether you agree or not) was shot at a public event for his beliefs and people are celebrating it, is absolutely insane for things to have gotten to this level, needs to do a bit of thinking.

    And I mean that as, whether you think it was his beliefs (which I fully believe are WILD) that led to him being shot because they had no basis in reality and only sowed hate or the guy who shot him was crazy and shot him, we all need to admit, this situation is so far out of normal that I’m not sure there’s a chance to go back.


  • So everyone else has good points but there’s one other part I don’t think was mentioned.

    Most ISPs use a PON based network. This lets them connect one fiber in their network and “split” that to up to 128 (or more, depends on the OEM) customers. You need a either GPON (Gigabit passive optical network) or XGS-PON (10 gigabit symmetrical passive optical network) SFP module and usually the ISP has to get a serial number off of that module to provision the proper data service.

    This is contingent upon the ISP being willing to do that. The one I currently work for, we really don’t do that except for businesses.
