So you have people like comcast who bitch about peering, a "service" that only provides a better service to their customers
and then blames netflix, which is totally not their problem
they provide the service, comcast just bitches at everyone that they have to pay for the bandwidth their customers want to use. And they still provide sh*t service
Just sounds like they arent willing to expand on infrastructure. That's the problem with a monopoly, they rest on their laurels
Praise Kek
that's exactly that
they don't want to spend the coin it costs for them to provide the service they sell
That's why I think if the barrier to entry is lower, the monopoly would be broken by a bunch of smaller companies snapping away their business
Not to mention the ownership of the copper that goes to each home
the company in my town that got so much buzz is less than 10 years old
in the U.S. we don't have options, so yes they are monopolies and they know it

Violence is always the answer
In hte U.S. it appears to me that monopolies appear when government and big business start giving each other reach arounds
sort of agree
microsoft's monopoly was built through sheer bastard behavior
Most people are bastards by nature
intentional acpi stand obfuscation
standard*
gonna have to explain that one to me
Matt Got my name wrong *Unsubs*
😄
acpi has to do with power standards, it's insanely complicated. Microsoft pioneered it and they intentionally, quoted from memos and speeches, so that other operating systems couldn't or would have a very difficult time applying
their standards. From linux to what is now OSX
It was anti-competition, rather than doing their due diligence and making sure they make the best product possible.
Bastard behavior. I hope you make it into the call in show I would like to hear more of your explanation, gotta go to work
take care!
There's not much chatter here. Does that mostly happen on the youtube side?
not sure
Never used Discord before ...
I avoid it
but whatever, I wanna bitch about something
Me too. I want to call in but I'm honestly not sure if I'm using Discord correctly. Should I be hearing the show?
not on here, no, to join the chat, go to <#231936127378915328> and type in <#231936127378915328>
not via discord
Oh I did the roll call thing at least.
err, to get in line for the call in line, use <#231936127378915328>
@agitated_tachyon check Matt's Patron server if you get a moment
Keeps saying I'm silenced, not sure why. Still getting used to this discord thing
cause you're in the quiet room
