In my rural town where the cottage is, XPloreNet finally brought fiber. I used to pay $140 for SpaceX (and because of the trees, I got at most 100 mbs of throughput). Now, with XPloreNet, I get consistent 100 mbs and my bill has been reduced to $75 per month. We pay too much for our Internet.

It's an electric vehicle, why such a big front? There is no gas engine in it.

And having used Sync for Reddit exclusively for about a decade, I felt right at home with its Lemmy version. That's why I'm here posting now.

I never laughed so much in a Star Trek episode as I did at last Thursday's episode. That was absolutely not expected lol.

Same. Having all the features that I enjoyed in Reddit now available in Lemmy is why I'm here right now. My Reddit account has been idling since June 30th and I'm just lurking in Anonymous mode until Lemmy picks up steam. I'm no longer participating in Reddit.

That's why I'm now here. I was waiting for Sync to be released. I bought the Ultra version to support the dev.

Same, except it's an Officejet 6600 from early 2010. I use third party ink cartridges in it. Fuck those expensive "genuine" ink cartridges!
