[12:20] <rick_h_> morning and all that
[12:26] <wolfger> morning
[12:26] <wolfger> and some of that
[13:44] <cmaloney> Good morning
[13:44] <cmaloney> MUG tonight. :)
[13:47] <rick_h_> party on
[13:59] <cmaloney> I think I hear some overwhelm in rick_h_'s keystrokes.
[15:31] <jrwren> i got a letter from comcast. it says my speed increased from 50Mbps to 75Mbps. It tells me to power cycle the modem to get the udpate. I think its actually an update that lets FBI spy on me.
[15:33] <rick_h_> jrwren: but...you get 25mbs in exchange for the spying
[15:34] <cmaloney> So win-win. ;)
[15:34] <cmaloney> Yeah, WOWWay upped us to 50mbps
[15:34] <cscheib> I got teh upgrade too, jrwren
[15:34] <cmaloney> Well, 60ish
[15:34] <cmaloney> and 5 up
[15:35] <cscheib> they're trying to bring up the average in certain markets most likely
[15:36] <cscheib> so they can deflect when the FCC tells them that US broadband speeds are a joke
[15:36] <cmaloney> Well, they are. :)
[15:38] <jrwren> i'm pretty happy with my speed.
[15:38] <jrwren> i thought maybe they did it because ATT is rolling out FIOS in the area.
[15:38] <cmaloney> Possibly
[15:38] <cmaloney> But the biggest problem with FIOS is ATT
[15:39] <greg-g> oh, it's just a big game and they aren't giving you what they could before until some other competitor forces them? weird.
[15:39] <cmaloney> Capitalism at work. ;)
[15:39] <cmaloney> It's the FREEEE MARRRRKETTTT
[15:39] <jrwren> greg-g: um, yup.
[15:39] <greg-g> the inefficiencies of capitalism, that is :)
[15:40] <cscheib> no FIOS here
[15:40] <jrwren> cmaloney: hahahaha, did you see the poorly drawn commic of the guy biking on no road who gets hurt and says save me ron paul?
[15:40] <cscheib> so don't think that's the driver
[15:40] <greg-g> I can't wait until Sonic.net rolls out FTTH in Petaluma
[15:41] <cmaloney> jrwren: I missed that.
[15:41] <cscheib> since the failed merger and the reclassification of interweb services, they've all just been under increased scrutiny
[15:41] <greg-g> (good)
[15:41] <greg-g> I'm a fan of scrutiny :)
[15:41] <cscheib> didn't say it was a bad thing
[15:41] <greg-g> I know :)
[15:42] <cscheib> but they're certainly not just trying to be good guys
[15:42] <greg-g> I'm just giving my own commentary ;)
[15:42] <greg-g> totally
[15:43] <cmaloney> Yeah, I'm a fan of referees in most games
