That was my only data, not limited because I ran out. I’m saying how trash the speed is and how little it can do.

That changes the “good enough” part a lot.

I know it’s trash. But it works. That’s great, if you’ve run out of data and really need to pay a bill. (Possibly internet bill.) It takes patience, but it’s possible.

Worked fine for me, when my connection was slower that that.

If you’re out of data, don’t stream video.

If you’re out of data, don’t download big files.

If you’re out of data, don’t use websites with a lot of data (such as autoplaying videos), without a plugin or something to minimize it.

If your chat can break your entire 400 k connection just by sending you a link, you should probably look at using some other software. Although of course that’s hard, if your friend aren’t willing to follow.

400kbps would be slow as hell, for all of those use cases.

I did those things just fine on my first internet connection, which was 14.4k.

When I upgraded to 54k, it was blazingly fast.

Remember we are not talking about modern comfort, we are talking a connection that is out of data. It’s okay to be annoyed.

That’s crazy. But I assume most people would use an app, which usually has a low amount of traffic.

It’s enough for email, chats, banking and other essentials.

I would say it’s not enough to stream a movie, which seems fair to me if you spent all the data you have for the period.

I know all that. But even if it’s not the majority, it’s still s looot of people.

It’s it “having” as in owning it? “I have a cake”.

You can’t eat a cake, and then still have it.

Too many people wants to live in EU, so they limit it the best way they can figure out.

Unfortunately that is not a very good way.

Incredibly better than what US is currently doing, but still not great.

And yet they keep voting for anyone that likes to treat people poorly. I don’t know what to think anymore.

…as long as y’all use GenAI incorrectly.

It has it’s uses i programming. Doing all the coding for you is not one of them.

I’ll give you a hint: Originally it was *******.

Wait, let me try again - hunter2

There’s a difference between making a mistake, and being confidently incorrect. The last one invites banter.

To me, “free album” is like a person handing out free CD’s on a busy sidewalk.

This is more like my landlord going into my living room and putting a CD on my shelf.

(Now someone will tell me about how my analogy is flawed, I don’t care, that’s how analogies work. It’s not the same, it’s an analogy.)

You are saying what I’m saying, and what everybody else is saying. But with a tone of defending it, as if it can’t be better.

Don’t give any customer your “trash pile”. Either take the time to do it right, or throw away the trashpile, or accept that customers feels like people are saying they feel.

Don’t make up excuses, the things you say you won’t do is not what is needed.

Things are done very, very differently here than most places.

Maybe that’s the problem. Everybody else has figured it out. I know you can’t change that, but lots of people could if they wanted to.

If I have a strip of, say, 10 pills, 2 rows of 5, and I get a prescription for 6 pills, that means I’m gonna have a strip of 4 pills left over. If I get a prescription for 9 pills, there’s gonna be a single one left over. Do you want these pills to just be thrown away?

Order of 6 pills - give a 3x2, you now have a 2x2.

Order 9 pills - give the 2x2 and a 1x5, you now have a 1x5.

I see your problem, but I don’t see how that can turn into “a 10x1, a 4x1, a 2x1 and another 2x1” as your best choice. That looks like he got the left-over-pile after a day of ever order getting from a new pack.

Honestly, I don’t know why you even have to open a package. I’ve never seen that, and I’ve been in some long pharmacy queues. Never been to US though.

If I need exactly 10 pills, I get a box with 10 pills, packed in a factory like any other box of pills.

This alone is enough for me, to consider Windows a bad choise.

I’ve said that line so many times.

Then I misread it. He seemed like he expected a beginner-friendly experience.

If he is experienced, and use Debian as an example of how Linux is not beginner-friendly, then he must be trolling.

Debian was not a great choise, it is not for beginners. I wonder why you chose that one.

If you want to try again, I recommend using a distribution that is recommended for beginners. For example Ubuntu.

Really? It seems to me that wherever I go they use the same plug*, and I can charge with my debit card. (Except one place in Germany, but I think it was an error in the payment system.)

Yes, there’s technically two different plugs, but they go in the same socket in my car. It just that the fast ones have a larger plug.

The problem is that some of them are much cheaper if you have the right card, but I believe the most expensive ones are still cheaper than fueling an ICE car.
