Spark garbage for RWC
I went to a buddy's place to watch the All-Blacks on Saturday. He had the misfortune of buying the Spark "service".
It buffered a bit, but was bearable. Then in the second half, the buffering got worse. It was every five to ten seconds. My buddy said that was normal for the "service". He has VDSL with about 75Mb down and 25Mb up.
At one point, with about ten minutes left in the match, there was a message that said that the game was also available on channel 23 (or 25, I don't recall). We changed to the other channel only to find that the match was already over.
What utter garbage.

Amazingly quiet night in Green Bay
All the Best for the New Year! The last few years they started banging days earlier already, but this year it was amazingly quiet. Now either people suddenly got smart and care about animals and the environment (which I don’t believe for a second) or it’s the clearest sign of the Cost of Living Crisis we are in. I’m just glad I can make a damn fine bread for under a dollar.
