HidingCat, in What's the best consumer internet plan you have acces to? Thinking of upgrading to a 10G subscription. Did a speed test.

I think 10Gbps in general is the max. I haven't thought about that level of speed because it's expensive, for both the plan and the need to upgrade all my network equipment to support 10Gb.

I pay $8.80/month for $1Gbps

I'm jealous, I pay like $33 for 600mbps after having opted out of paying from all the useless antivirus and filters and having my own router rather than renting.

HidingCat,

I think different countries have different PPP, so I wouldn't say it's fair to compare directly like that. I think ease of access to such services and how much it costs in relation to wages is a better gauge.

I have 6Mbps (and it's not just me), if that gives you an idea on the pricing/tiers... (no other options, semi-rural USA internet, it's not even perfect service).

I don't believe fiber is available, or at least it doesn't seem to give that info (like it did before) that I can see now. Also, it's an old phone wire into our house and that's it (no ethernet jacks).

briefingWizard936,

Hope it gets better over there.

-spam-, in The cheapest mortgage rate I can get today is 9.13% which is insane. What's the lowest rate you can get?

In Australia but we are just over 7% on our variable rate. Think 2 years ago it was down at like 3.something%.

Our reserve bank keeps upping the cash rate to "combat inflation" but all that is doing is making those of us with home loans give the banks more of our earnings while we already couldn't afford to splash out.

Looks like the lowest I can go is around 6%, which makes renting a better proposition for me.

USA and dollars, the math doesn't work for buying right now... at least for me.

Looking forward to the things I'll learn and conversations I'll have.

gar_thurion, in How do I remove sticker residue from glass containers?

Band-aid residue is removed with gasoline. I’d give it a shot.

aboringusername, in How do I remove sticker residue from glass containers?

Water and a razor blade works. Original Windex is really good at removing left over tint adhesive from glass, so it might work here too.

When I need to do something like this I run the glass under hot water to soften the adhesive the use 91% rubbing alcohol.
