Oh, I figured bos was just down for me for some odd reason, I guess I missed the windows when it was actually up because there's been a page of posts since I was last able to get in. Anyhow - it seems that the after the sell off of the NBN after completion no entity can own more than 20% of it...

Goddammit, I missed the important bits because bos went down for me for some weird ass reason.

Reading up on this^ now. That's point to point though, wouldn't ISPs normally provide this as a shared medium?

Fiber won't be overtaken by wireless alternatives anytime soon. AFAIK fiber is only limited by the speed of light isn't it? NTT Japan is currently pushing 14Trillion bits down a single strand of fiber and increasing this simple by upgrading the switches at each end, not having to actually change...

Link isn't working for me. What pipe stuff are you talking about? The 1.4XTb/s pipe they are opening? Australia needs more international pipes so we can get rid of this quota BS imo. Whilst FTTN may have been enough to suffice for the next couple years we would have had to rip that out...

Conroy is being grilled for net censorship. <3 it.

Yeah there's a movie too, watched it in 3D for $20 at Greater Union. The 3D effects were excellent but the actual movie was tripe imo, waste of $20.

:headbang:

fuck fuck fuck, I thought we were talking about Bullet for My Valentine. My bad.

I sure hope so, I have a 7hour shift that day. I started April last year, is that the new or old award?

Hi thread, I have two questions: 1. Does this Saturday mean penalty rates for us burger flippers? It counts as a public holiday on: NSW Office of Industrial Relations, Public Holidays 2. What are our penalty rates for a public holiday? Double time? Coles is double time and a half :O.

This thread is months old.

let's be best friends

Just curious, what are your views on the environment? I think it was Graney(?) who pointed out last night that the libertarian idea that the free markets would take care of the environment and that heritage funds etc would buy up the places worth protecting is pretty retarded. On topic though...
