| 11:58:56 | <@HCross> | Wayward: there were plans to rename stations on the London Underground with corporate sponsorship |
| 11:59:10 | <@HCross> | so you might change for the Central line at Barclays station |
| 11:59:11 | <@HCross> | type thing |
| 11:59:52 | <@HCross> | https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/apr/23/london-underground-agrees-first-tube-station-sponsorship-marathon-canada-water |
| 12:00:19 | <@OrIdow6> | Wayward may already be referencing it, but the town thing did happen with Truth or Consequences, New Mexico |
| 12:00:34 | <Wayward> | HCross, heh. but that stuff happens all the time. In the U.S., we have sky scrapers and sports stadiums that change names every 5, 10, 20 years. |
| 12:00:48 | <Wayward> | OrIdow6: you're good :) |
| 12:00:59 | <@HCross> | yep, same here |
| 12:01:08 | <Wayward> | But people did tattoo web addresses on their faces |
| 12:01:27 | <rewby> | We have some corporately named stations here. Not that many though |
| 12:01:33 | <@HCross> | was fun during the 2012 Olympics here, as a lot of them had to change names back |
| 12:01:50 | <Wayward> | Interestingly, Truth or Consequences still has its name some 80 years later, which is what would make a Geocities, Idaho rather amusing. |
| 12:02:09 | <@HCross> | like the o2 Arena (which hosted the gymnastics and basketball) had to be renamed for the period |
| 12:03:07 | <Wayward> | I'm sure T-or-C made sense to people back in the 60's, but by the time the film Deliverance came out, they might have considered changing it back to Hotsprings, New Mexico. |
| 12:06:19 | <@HCross> | very British thing: we have sponsored roundabouts |
| 12:07:52 | <Wayward> | though, might not be long before corporations start actually buying up entire cities. and not just small community townships |
| 12:09:15 | <Wayward> | rezone an entire area code as one commercial property with one postal address, and impose corporate rules in place of laws |
| 12:19:35 | <lunik1> | that big sideways roundabout in London is also sponsored |
| 12:23:14 | <Wayward> | i want to see a sideways roundabout |
| 12:23:54 | <lunik1> | https://www.lastminute.com/tickets/sites/default/files/styles/media_slider/public/LondonEye_PS1_23-01-20.jpg |
| 12:25:29 | <Wayward> | that's a ferris wheel. i thought you meant one of these. https://acecnebraska.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Photo-3-FHU-Roundabout.jpg |
| 12:37:34 | <@OrIdow6> | I was thinking of something like https://images.eurogamer.net/modojo.com/features/601/rainbowroad.jpg |
| 12:39:05 | <Wayward> | heh |
| 12:39:56 | <Wayward> | i figured out that image i posted must be computer generated. 3 of the cars on the right just hit a man and they're leaving bloody tire tracks |
| 12:40:32 | <Wayward> | roundabouts are dangerous |
| 12:41:44 | <@HCross> | Wayward: lunik1 it used to be sponsored by British Airways which I always found quite amusing |
| 12:41:49 | <rewby> | I think that's meant to be the rear lights |
| 12:43:23 | <@HCross> | TIL: British Airways were the original owners of the London Eye |
| 12:45:18 | <@HCross> | ouch, "These agreements gave Tussauds 100% ownership and resolved the debt from the Eye's construction loan from British Airways, which stood at more than £150 million by mid-2005 and had been charging an interest rate of 25% per annum." |

| 18:06:02 | <Wayward> | for gigabit fiber service, I'd change my name to Google for *more* than a month. |
| 19:19:53 | <atphoenix> | what is a good price for a gigabit connection? |
| 19:20:25 | <atphoenix> | esp symmetrical gigabit fiber |
| 19:21:17 | <@HCross> | depends where |
| 20:23:54 | <Wayward> | hopefully Starlink drives a massive massive push for sudden cheap fiber installation nationwide |
| 20:24:02 | <Wayward> | (in the US) |
| 20:24:45 | <Wayward> | ADSL should be completely dead within 3-5 years. |
| 20:25:43 | <Wayward> | I think the average American is paying $60 a month for 8 to 12 mbit |
| 20:32:18 | <fuzzy8021> | unfortunately Wayward getting fiber out in the rural areas isnt cheap |
| 20:32:44 | <Wayward> | fuzzy8021: with cell towers, all rural areas have fiber today |
| 20:33:00 | <Wayward> | i'm not even talking about farm country. suburbs would be nice. |
| 20:33:34 | <Wayward> | my folks live just 10 miles outside of one of the top-10 largest US cities, in a very dense suburb, and they're on 12 mbit ADSL. |
| 20:33:50 | <fuzzy8021> | im talking farm country. 1-2 houses per mile if your lucky |
| 20:34:18 | <Wayward> | there is no excuse why my folks don't have 100 mbit fiber to their doorstep, like they have had in Sweden for 20 years. |
| 20:34:35 | <Wayward> | let alone 10 gbit like in much of europe |
| 20:35:52 | <Wayward> | i live right next to a college campus, and I can can only get 8 mbit. there's a 4g cell tower next to me |
| 20:36:45 | <Wayward> | the engineers told me the tower has 5 gbit fiber, but the 4g is throttled so people don't dump their ADSL accounts and switch to teathering full time |
| 20:38:01 | <Wayward> | they want you to keep paying out both ends. |
| 20:38:32 | <fuzzy8021> | hehe alot of where i am towers are 4g but signal doesnt reach much of anywhere |
| 20:39:44 | <Wayward> | of course, my phone company owns a handfull of movie companies, and they don't want people pirating films or switching completely to netflix. |
| 20:39:50 | <Wayward> | gotta make those theater ticket sales |
| 20:58:38 | <spirit2> | is torrentbytes dead? |
| 21:49:04 | <atphoenix> | spirit2, yes per twitter? |
