What is the point of paying for the pipe if you don’t use everything you can?! There is no reason they shouldn’t push it through faster.

This is the reason why I leave the shower running in every hotel I visit. And at the buffet, I tell the waiter to fetch me a trash can so I can actually get rid of the whole thing. If I can, I usually leave both a heater and an air conditioner running in the hallway.

Edit: Wow. I had completely forgotten about this comment. I really didn’t think anyone would take it seriously. I work with networks. I know we’re not literally going to run out of internet. But everyone treats bandwidth as this freely available resource. Advertisers, consumers, creatives and Jürgen. Fuck you, Jürgen. We both know that downloading 6 fucking MB every time someone wants to queue up the database is fucking insane, as is your reliance on client-side bullshit.

Anyway, whenever a anything loads slowly, think about why. Bandwith is not free. It’s a maintained resource.

[…] more than 60 Hz. Most phones on the market don’t even support it.

Just checked. Most phones within the 400€ - 800€ price range support more than 60Hz.

Of 591 devices, only 176 feature a ‘unknown’ or <90Hz refresh rate. 415 support >=90Hz, 382 support >=120Hz and 48 models go to >=144Hz. It has become a fairly common feature.
