Kinda like Marxism-Leninism, but in a one-man cult-of-personality police state and if you as much as look funny at the leader, you get disappeared/shot?
In other words, what’s happening to the USA minus the Marxism-Leninism?

True, and besides, that dirt road looks pretty legit even for cars, so what’s all that about?

For example, it disallows publishing derivative works without those being licensed under the same terms (or newer GPL versions). That’s why commercial companies are reluctant to use GPL-licensed code in their products.
Imagine still living in 1937. #USA

vonxylofon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•How to properly test my internet speed from ISP?English8·6 months agoIf you’re getting 650 Mbps, all of your hardware is definitely capable of running 1 Gbps, as the test with desktops is showing (you can hardly get more than 950Mbps from 1GBps hardware in reality). If it weren’t, it’d probably run at 100 Mbps.
Read the fine print of the ISP plan to see how the bandwidth is allocated. It may be something like “1000 Mbps total, 700 down/300 up”. In that case, you’re getting what was advertised: about 700 Mbps downlink, and the rest will be uplink. My ISP advertises 1000/50, and they’re true to both, so I get blisteringly fast downlink, but abysmal uplink. A friend of mine has 500/500, which is IMO much better, but that ISP doesn’t have coverage in my building.

Worked perfectly. The TV’s image quality leaves something to be desired (especially backlight uniformity), though.
I blame reticulating splines.
