Massive changes at Rancho Subsim:
Bought a house with fiber access, 350MBS download speeds and no more data cap.
Cancelled Visible service
Switched mobile to Verizon prepaid, 15GB data cap at $40 a month.

We tried for a year to get Xfinity to come out and make a line out here in the Suburban countryside. We had a Verizon Jetpack that had 15gb of unlimited data and guess how fast that went out when I was playing my games?
less than a day And the more gigs you used, the slower the speed got. Literally, in two weeks, we would have 35 kb/s download speed AT MAX. We would get more 15gb data after a month had passed.
Then, Xfinity came out with fiber internet out here in May, after using Verizon for about a year and I could download SH5 in two minutes, with the max speed capping off at around 500 Mb/s. The Xfinity speed test says that we get nearly
1gb max speed, which is insane.
I understand how grueling it must've been for you to have the slowest internet ever. Life felt so slow back in those days, especially when I had to do online learning for school.
Good hunting! Give those tommies hell!
