Re: "This is crazy slow. 2019 we dont have decent internet?????? The rest of the world does. "
It's surprisingly good here in rural New Hampshire.

1/3 of a mile up the same street, though, I know someone who has to pay $12,000 to get cable-based broadband from the same company. Therefore, he's got satellite or DSL at his house. I don't remember which it is, but he's always complaining about how lousy his service is.

Out here, the rule seems to be that if you're within 6 houses (or maybe a certain number of feet) of someone else with broadband, you can get it installed for free. Otherwise you have to foot the bill to move the trunk line to your property. At that point, all of your neighbors can get it installed for free, daisy-chaining off of you. Doesn't seem quite fair.
