He what? Sorry can't hear ya over this 18+ scene noises that i am watching loudly on a plane

[wispy valley]

https://tenor.com/view/flying-plane-i-love-flying-gif-12378824

[vagrant quail]

Lmao

[lilac forge]

I once had a row of 5-10 year old kids in front of me and they were all playing different movies but without headphones

[wispy valley]

yeah its annoying

especially at night

[lilac forge]

There’s 0 chance at getting any sleep in economy

everyone behind you has to recline their seat before you can

Which NEVER happens

[wispy valley]

lol

last flight i had the rearmost row

so no leaning back at all even if I came first

[lilac forge]

Nightmares like that is what puts me off flying

I usually get connecting flight for long hauls now

[wispy valley]

yeah

plus my luggage was gone

during transit between two planes

[lilac forge]

damn lmao

Did they send it on the wrong flight

[wispy valley]

no it just didnt get on the plane in time

[inner charm]

f

[lilac forge]

That’s what happened to my friend, her luggage ended up in bangledesh

[wispy valley]

and next plane to the airport i went to was some days later

i still havent gotten it back, but sometime i guess

[lilac forge]

did u get any compensation

[wispy valley]

no

[lilac forge]

if they lose it forever you get like 5 quid per t shirt

[wispy valley]

they never gave a PIR cause their system is down

[lilac forge]

jeez

[wispy valley]

airline and airport didnt care but I got the travel company to find it and send it back soon

[lilac forge]

Sounds like you’ll be getting that back in a few hundred business days

[waxen rover]

Morning bfd

[wispy valley]

hello starr

[vagrant quail]

Morning!

[wispy valley]

[waxen rover]

damn takmi

[wicked spoke]

Security questions always seemed like a very bad backup for forgetting a password.

Like, is there any real security to it, or is it theatre?

Because in my eyes, you are being told to enter another password, that is possible less complicated than your actual password

[rocky fern]

eh essentially it's better than nothing

[wispy valley]

Hey clank what was the name of your first pet

[rocky fern]

in reality it doesn't serve much practical utility

[wicked spoke]

Takmikill, coincidentally

[rocky fern]

very easy to extract answers

[fast shuttle]

is blatant ableism cool in this server?

[robust vector]

😩

[wicked spoke]

Hmm, that's what I thought

[wispy valley]

what

[fast shuttle]

did i stutter

[rocky fern]

this will all go away once 2BA is fully adopted anyways

it's a stopgap solution

[wispy valley]

[wicked spoke]

2fa for the win

[rocky fern]

2 factor biometric authentication*

[wicked spoke]

oh

[wispy valley]

no biometric on my phone

some apps complain about that

[fast shuttle]

this an obviously ableist video, pretty disgusting. jw if this server allows this type of post often

[robust vector]

What theee

[rocky fern]

it's being integrated at speed into web standards

is implemented within chrome already

websites will be sooner or later

[robust vector]

Is that even sleeping, my friend?

[wispy valley]

wish my phone had fingerprint or face scan

[wicked spoke]

You know, it's kinda neat that we have bio-metrics and stuff in our phones. It was always seen as this very sciensfiction thing in like pre 2010 movise

[fast shuttle]

like the mod just ignored it entirely

[robust vector]

Hahahhaa

[waxen rover]

ye, i was watching a movie 🙂

[rocky fern]

maybe cause it's not ableist

lol

[waxen rover]

i slept for a good 6 hours and i have today of so 🙂

[robust vector]

Dangg

[waxen rover]

time for coffee i guess

[robust vector]

Are you marathoning?

[rocky fern]

only going to get more sophisticated as time goes on too

[waxen rover]

no...

i was gaming before that

[robust vector]

I seee

[rocky fern]

we've already got optical finger scanning

optical by, finger imaging

[wispy valley]

i want finger print on next phone

[fast shuttle]

so this ableist video is ok with the mods here?

[waxen rover]

is that judgement i read there Mr Irish? 😛

[rocky fern]

tak what phone have you got

[wispy valley]

xcover 4s

[rocky fern]

yeesh

that's old af lmao

[wispy valley]

2019

[rocky fern]

hardware*

[robust vector]

Ah.. I can only get 5-6 nowadays as well

[wispy valley]

ye

pretty slow sometimes

[wicked spoke]

What about the fingerprint sensors in newer phones that are ultrasonic?

[waxen rover]

i used to be able to sleep for 12 hours straight.. but my body refuses that

[rocky fern]

those are optical

[wicked spoke]

Oh

[robust vector]

I did that

[wicked spoke]

But they call them ultrasonic?

[rocky fern]

optical is using light to measure the fingerprint

[robust vector]

Few years ago

I was soo ill that day

[rocky fern]

ultrasonic optical imagery

[wicked spoke]

Oh

[robust vector]

So I went to sleep all day.

[rocky fern]

different ways of doing it, s21 uses ultrasonic

[wispy valley]

my rog phone ii had under screen

[rocky fern]

cheaper ones use light based imagery

[wispy valley]

pretty cool

[waxen rover]

i'll be right back, i need to clear out the dishwasher and ofcourse need coffee

[rocky fern]

cya

[robust vector]

I see

[wicked spoke]

Interesting

[robust vector]

But it's convenient now lol

[rocky fern]

it's why some phones have inbuilt light when you tap on their fingerprint sensor

aka it brightens the screen

[robust vector]

No need for a specific button at the back of the phone

[robust vector]

I see

[wispy valley]

my rog phone II had under screen optical, but the power ic died

[wicked spoke]

Clever

[robust vector]

My phone does that

[wispy valley]

so now im on xcover 4s

[rocky fern]

ye next development will be under the screen cameras

well they already exist

[robust vector]

Nice

[rocky fern]

but mass market will see them soon

[robust vector]

Gett rid of daaa notttchh!

[wicked spoke]

Under the screen cameras are gonna be really cool. So far tho the early versions seems kinda oof

But that's kinda how development goes

[wispy valley]

no notch on any of my phones yet

[robust vector]

What phone are you using?

[rocky fern]

early prototypes are mediocre to say the least, there's more going on than people would think for these sorts of things

even just things like fingerprint sensors

[wispy valley]

pretty slow

for modern phones

[rocky fern]

I'm sure if you told people that their data was being collected for their fingerprint sensors their brain would explode

[wicked spoke]

A phone collecting your information? Never

[wispy valley]

the people putting iphone into microwave to wireless charge it

[wicked spoke]

That does actually work tho

You just need to have a specific app open

[rocky fern]

it works* if you want to fry your phone

[wicked spoke]

Psh

[wispy valley]

jk

[wicked spoke]

Speaking of exploding phones

[inner charm]

i saw that

[wicked spoke]

How come we're all kinda okay with having such a volatile piece of technology in our pockets at all times?

Like, lithium batteries, I get that they are super safely made and put into the phone

But like

[wispy valley]

theyre pretty stable unless you have original note 7

though even then it was just a percentage of them

[wicked spoke]

Yeah, but still

Lithium batteries are no joke

[wispy valley]

i know

dont puncture them

[wicked spoke]

Lithium batteries and cars are like, the most dangerous things known to human kind, and we all just casually use them daily.

Obviously exaggerating but still

[rocky fern]

simple answer

there's no better option

lithium ion cells are so abundant and stable that using anything else has less efficiency in terms of cell lifetime (nikkel) etc, which is why it's so abundant nowadays

[lilac forge]

What about nuclear bombs

[wispy valley]

A lot of EVs put huge plate to protect it in bottom

[wicked spoke]

Ah yes, I daily drop nukes on people

[rocky fern]

it's much like nuclear fission, sure the experiments are highly dangerous in a vacuum, but we've perfected the practice for so long there is little to no risk nowadays

[lilac forge]

If you work for Russia you do

Or the us

[wicked spoke]

Hmm, fair enough

[lilac forge]

They use bombs on random islands all the time

[wispy valley]

yeah, if only it wasnt banned so we use coal, oil and gas instead

[wicked spoke]

And yeah, people shouldn't be scared of nuclear energy, it's like the biggest cheat code we could ever want in solving like, a lot of problems related to energy

Nuclear + renewables = ez life

[rocky fern]

yeah unfortunately too many people see big mushroom cloud and think nuclear power bad

[cosmic drift]

Scary name = bad

[wicked spoke]

We should rename it: "Cute puppies energy device"

[wispy valley]

we wont have fusion either, not that we could afford it

[cosmic drift]

I wonder how a person like that would feel when I inform them of the dangers of wind turbines

[lilac forge]

Because of Incidents like Chernobyl and that recent one people think it’s pre dangerous lol, even though Chernobyl had so many corners cut and the recent was from like 50 years ago

[rocky fern]

hmm

not set in stone actually

[cosmic drift]

Since most 100% support renewables

[rocky fern]

fusion has come a long way in the last few years

[wispy valley]

i mean by law

[waxen rover]

i return:)

[wicked spoke]

Chernobyl literally can't happen again with how secure nuclear reactors are. So that's neat.

[rocky fern]

ITER will come online in 2025.. iirc

and when that does fusion will actually begin commercial activity

[wispy valley]

they've already said they don't care how much it progress or how it develops

[rocky fern]

that's the thing

[lilac forge]

Didn’t the pins have graphite tips 🤣

[rocky fern]

if you actually read how it's developing, it's nearly at market maturity

[wispy valley]

yes, but they dont want it

my country i mean

[cosmic drift]

You guys do realise how much money oil and gas makes governments right

[rocky fern]

oh meh your country doesn't matter

[wicked spoke]

But who needs fusion, nuclear, coal, wind, hydro, whatever when you can just prop up a generator in the back and have a hamster run along the motor

[rocky fern]

ITER is a EU project

[cosmic drift]

Governments chase da money

And da money is in oil

The money is not in da uranium

Da

[wicked spoke]

Oil only give the government money, because people give oil money because oil gives the government money.

[rocky fern]

ehh

it's not that easy unfortunately

[cosmic drift]

Well yeah because governments don’t offer alternatives

Because they don’t want to

[rocky fern]

no

both of you have this the other way round

[cosmic drift]

Like if I had an option to change to uranium with a higher cost

I’d still do it

[rocky fern]

the reality is there is no alternative that exists in enough quantity to replace oil

[wicked spoke]

stares at Norway who runs on 99% Hydro

[rocky fern]

to stop using oil you would need to shutdown basically half of the world's current manufacturing capacity

[rocky fern]

and also mines obscene amounts of oil

[wicked spoke]

Please ignore that

[quaint herald]

Unfortunately here Coal is the cheapest and most abundant source of fuel.

[cosmic drift]

Which is why they would need to phase it out slowly

But for some reason

They wanna start this in 2050

God knows why

[rocky fern]

yeah, things aren't that easy

you can't just "phase it out"

words may sound nice, actually putting that into detail is another thing entirely

[wispy valley]

you can mostly do that, in energy sector anyway

[rocky fern]

oil is vital in every single modern essential, glass, things you wouldn't anticipate all rely on it

[wispy valley]

we have a lot more ng now (though that is exploding in price)

[rocky fern]

so unfortunately it's not so simple to get rid of it

[cosmic drift]

I don’t think anyone expects to stop oil entirely

Just make it so it’s used far far less

And not the no1 mainstream power source

[quaint herald]

Really the best thing is to minimise the use until we can find workable alternatives.

[cosmic drift]

The only way I see that happening is if they artificially shoot prices up sky sigh

So less is used

[quaint herald]

The next big thing for energy is to make a thorium energy plant

[cosmic drift]

Otherwise what would they use

[wispy valley]

we already produce thorium plants

molten salt compact ones

[quaint herald]

Oh what

[wispy valley]

we just cant use them by law, but sell them to other countries

[quaint herald]

Wow.

[cosmic drift]

Isnt thorium itself super weak

[wicked spoke]

I still think we just need hamsters on wheels

[waxen rover]

BOO!

[quaint herald]

BOO

[cosmic drift]

Oh wait nvm it has an atomic mass of 232

[quaint herald]

Reeee you got me first this time xd

[cosmic drift]

It could become an isotope, epik

[waxen rover]

yes 😄

[quaint herald]

Good to see you mate

[rocky fern]

yeah

[lilac forge]

Hamsters on steroids

[inner charm]

WAY

[rocky fern]

what does that actually mean in practice

[quaint herald]

TWIGGS

[lilac forge]

We’d have energy for years

[rocky fern]

it doesn't mean anything in practice

[quaint herald]

Henlo!

[inner charm]

wanna do an AUS/NA combo of 2042

[quaint herald]

LOL

Maybe

[waxen rover]

wanna hang in vc? 🙂

[quaint herald]

My tongue is on fire

[inner charm]

the ping gonna be soooo bad

[quaint herald]

I was actually gonna ask that

[wispy valley]

300 ms ping

[quaint herald]

Yeah sure in a bit

[waxen rover]

let EU join the match too!

[quaint herald]

Twiggs in the U.S so i'm gonna get either 180 to 220 lol

[inner charm]

sure

[cosmic drift]

Demolish more plants, give people less access to these resources, increase prices

Horrible plan as it would cause riots aplenty, but tbh it’s all I can think of unless other energy sources are incorporated

[waxen rover]

we can play with AI right?

[inner charm]

[quaint herald]

Yeah

[inner charm]

my ping is gonna skyrocket

its gonna be pog

[quaint herald]

AI is generally fun to relax on

Join vc

[waxen rover]

meh as long as we have fun

[rocky fern]

you realise what you are saying is effectively ending modern civilisation as it exists right

[cosmic drift]

Mhm

Cuz the way it exists currently is not good

What else could we do

[rocky fern]

yeah and that's never going to happen so more realistic things are better such as saying we'll need oil for a long time

[cosmic drift]

Honestly

Because yeah I know deep down governments won’t do crap until we see the effects first hand

[rocky fern]

no, it's all fine saying just end it all

[wicked spoke]

To be fair, modern civilisation as it is right now is a major contributor to a lot of the issues we need to solv, or else there won't be a civilisation

[rocky fern]

when it actually happens, you'll probably change your mind

[quasi gazelle]

Morning

[wicked spoke]

Also fiy, I am not for shutting down modern civilisation

I think we can properly navigate the issues without actually like, crippling modern life

[rocky fern]

eh yeah we wiped out 99% of all species that have existed on the planet

[cosmic drift]

I’m willing to pay massively increased prices and/or live far more simple

I know I’ll think differently in the moment but I have always had an environment first mindset

Hopefully if push did come to shove

My mindset wouldnt twist around, but I can’t know

As long as I’m alive heh

[wispy valley]

hello zobtzler

i have left sweden

[rocky fern]

I'll be drinking coffee as y'all lot figure it out we're the pioneers of renewables

[quaint herald]

We should power the world on coffee!!

[quasi gazelle]

Aaah, you got scared and fled as early as you arrived

[wispy valley]

nah, -12C was fine

[quasi gazelle]

There's a difference between snow and just cold

[quasi gazelle]

Hello way

[wispy valley]

there was a meter ish of snow

not much

[quasi gazelle]

You went skiing?

[worn yew]

helo

[wispy valley]

normally colder there in this time of year

nah, snow scooter and dog sled

[quasi gazelle]

[rocky fern]

I endorse burning planet earth to the ground to fuel coffee

[wispy valley]

kiruna

[wicked spoke]

Hmm, seems fair

[quasi gazelle]

That far

[wispy valley]

pretty far north

but not that cold rn

[worn yew]

You can do that

[rocky fern]

it's a worthy tradeoff

[worn yew]

I had maths exam I think I did well

Even tho I didn't study anythinf

[wicked spoke]

Liquorice does not taste good

[jaunty lake]

I'm okay.

[wispy valley]

that is salmiak, not liquorice

but they do taste good together

[wicked spoke]

Oh

Well, liquorice still doesn't taste good

[wispy valley]

It's lovely

Real liquorice that is, not artificial

[wicked spoke]

Oh

[wispy valley]

The roots are very strong though

[wicked spoke]

Well, I was talking about like the candy thingy with salmiak, not the real kind

[wispy valley]

the candy is also nice if its derived from the real plant

[wicked spoke]

Hmm

[wispy valley]

but thats up to preferences

[wicked spoke]

Debatable

[wispy valley]

iirc most in US is artificial for some reason

while a lot here is plant extract

[wicked spoke]

Well, I am not in the US

Idk how it's made in Norway tbh

[wispy valley]

someone died in the US cause they ate 1,5 kg of it each day

[wicked spoke]

Oh

[wispy valley]

Norway is mostly plant extract like in DK i think

[wicked spoke]

Well, then I hate the plant extract kind

[wispy valley]

😋

[wicked spoke]

No, gross

[wispy valley]

its second most sold candy in DK

first is chocolate

[wicked spoke]

Oh, chocolate is nice tho

So I guess the danes have some semblance of sense

[wispy valley]

it is

[lilac forge]

how can that be

wtf…

[wicked spoke]

Because the Nordic countries is the best countries to live in, and we all celebrate with candy all the time

Or something, idk

[wispy valley]

lol

[wicked spoke]

Tho, England somehow just dominating with the chocolate

[lilac forge]

make no sense to me

We have a lower obesity rate

[jolly folio]

wuts this

[wicked spoke]

We know how to exercise

[wispy valley]

this is kg/year per person

[wicked spoke]

Also, the real answer is probably more related to fast food

And sugar in those types of foods

[wispy valley]

probably other sources yeah

[lilac forge]

We have much lower portion sizers

Get people hooked on predecessor on a platform you have just as news about the new one is coming around

But you need to buy a whole new console to play it

Bam, marketing

[wispy valley]

yeah, only need a 1400 usd console

for one game

[wicked spoke]

Well, why do you think Horizon Zero Dawn came out on PC just a month after Forbidden West was announced?
Or God of War is coming to PC the same year that Ragnarok is coming out.

You're talking about the DLC area, right?

[wispy valley]

[wicked spoke]

Oh

Then, hmm, I forgot

[wispy valley]

yeah is the cut

[wicked spoke]

Oh, so I was right?

[wispy valley]

yeah i think

[wicked spoke]

Hmm

[wispy valley]

[wicked spoke]

Ah. Nice

I got 30 hours in ZD too, I never played the DLC tho, oof, I started it but forgot to continue

FW is gonna be here any second now, pls, I wanna start it

[wispy valley]

[wicked spoke]

Yeah it does

[wispy valley]

Hey there

Slept well?

[wispy valley]

[astral copper]

Bye

[wicked spoke]

The game does look great. When it came out, it was my favourite game to take photos in

[misty burrow]

Oh absolutely, but they massively improved NPC density now, taking screenshots in populated areas is the best thing ever

[wicked spoke]

Ooo

[wispy valley]

it does look good yeah

[astral copper]

https://c.tenor.com/LOg8BM-As70AAAAM/cyberpunk-bug.gif

[wispy valley]

runs nice too

a lot of content they still need to add though

[misty burrow]

I'm sure they're working hard towards that

Best thing they need is time

[wispy valley]

yeah

[wicked spoke]

I do hope the game eventually turns into what it was advertised as, because that would be neat

[misty burrow]

I'm convinced that's what they intend to do

That's a hill I'm prepared to die on

[misty burrow]

Uhhhhhh

[inner charm]

AHAHAHAHA

[wicked spoke]

Considering the 9 year development time it had before launch leading to the underdeveloped game was apparently due to too loose deadlines, it might have a chance of improving now that they are kinda setting expectations for players

[modern mesa]

https://tenor.com/view/xiangling-genshin-impact-genshin-i-know-your-address-speed-gif-23320284

[wicked spoke]

Hmm, seems about right

[misty burrow]

People keep forgetting that even if it started development 9 years ago, that doesn't mean it was developed for 9 whole years

Hiatuses happen, so do major engine changes

[wicked spoke]

Yeah

[misty burrow]

I mean, look at Dead Island 2

[wicked spoke]

But still, 9 years, like 3 delays? Something happened, oof

[misty burrow]

Sure, that might be so, but some fans really went too far with them

[wicked spoke]

That is true

People get too angry

[worn yew]

Decided to go a bit different

[wicked spoke]

Sometimes a negative reaction is justified, so it's always hard to reign in people who take it too far, because they'll think you're not seeing the problems

[wispy valley]

what

[wicked spoke]

nvm, I just edited the message instead

[wispy valley]

at least theyve been improving it instead of abandoning it

[wicked spoke]

Yeah

[wispy valley]

Hzd port also had issues until guerilla took over

[wicked spoke]

But the game was at least there

[wispy valley]

Yup

But that was already made 2 years earlier

[kindred geyser]

Nothing makes me cringe harder than reading through the metacritic reviews for BFV.

Almost none of them have anything to do with the actual gameplay, and when they are, it's always a very braindead take on the gameplay.

[worn yew]

great im alone in VC eating food by myself

[wispy valley]

yeah im having mic issues

[worn yew]

https://tenor.com/view/hide-the-pain-harold-harold-laugh-confused-gif-21810289

[silver bone]

Issue with reviews in any multiplayer-focused game, in my opinion, is that it has to be written well before:

1. Most of players unlock relevant amounts of equipment
2. Some kind of meta starts to emerge (for better or worse)
3. Initial rebalancing updates make it through

It's not really reviewer's fault per se, obviously

It's just tough to get a good feel if you have to throw a review into the world after one week

[wispy valley]

oh i found out why

"there isn't enough resources for the usb controller

aa

oh well it works at the moment

[silver bone]

You're going to miss out on details with major impact on gameplay that normally take time to show up, like preferred weapons, attachments, high activity areas, general map flow

As early on, everyone will kind of blindly stumble around finding out what works, and that is fair

[wispy valley]

and it crashed again

[kindred geyser]

I think you might be onto something. I'm getting that impression when reading 2042 steam reviews as well. Hell, there's this one guy that gave the game a bad review at 0,3 hours played, and has since logged over 500 hours into the game.

[verbal belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/lol-gif-18481614

[silver bone]

It's something that isn't even exclusive to full game releases

When new maps for released game come out, same story

Sometimes that pre-meta phase will play way worse than "end result"

Sometimes, funnily enough, it will play way better

Fao Fortress in BF1 comes to mind for me when it comes to the latter here

[wispy valley]

finally i think, stupid mic

now to play some uboat

Battlefield 1 is damaging my ears

[verbal belfry]

u should always avoid playing on 100% volume

protect ur ears

[fast otter]

I'm not

but them explosions keep happening

[wispy valley]

[fast otter]

In some BF1 maps

People are basically spamming grenades

its fucking annoying

the Fort map

[verbal belfry]

[half oxide]

thats been happening since day 1

[fast otter]

well ye I just started playing BF1

Today

A few hours ago

[half oxide]

i meant since it released mate

[fast otter]

ye ofc

the fuck otherwise did you mean

BF1 is more fun than BFV

[half oxide]

the fact you let the enemy team get to the stronghold on the Italian mountains map only means you deserve to be grenade spammed

[worn yew]

they both are fun (even tho i didnt play BFV)

[half oxide]

its almost impossible to lose as germans on that map

[fast otter]

BFV feels better in some parts I guess

ADS mechanics

Movement mechanics

[worn yew]

real question is how thunder run come in my spotify on repeat after listening to it like 2 times

[half oxide]

bfv sights > 2042 sights

[worn yew]

lul

[half oxide]

why does the 6x have a fuckin glow bit on the crosshair that literally hides the person you’re shooting at

[fast otter]

well I'm just gonna uninstall BF1 and try titanfall2 tmr

[lilac forge]

I always get random cringey songs when I listen to sfg

[lilac forge]

The nade spam is what makes it fun for me

Trying to run through the gas

Just flank then

or go to the other point

Just don’t mmg camp on the hill

With fiber maybe, add a satellite, poor routing and some poor quality rusty and wet copper connection and you are off to the races!

[worn yew]

i hope carbonic isnt typing a paragraph

nvm

Pov: this is my Internet

[keen hatch]

If I wrote a paragraph it would be amazing and you would love it!

[silver bone]

To be fair, I get 320 to Japan with my 2,5 MB/s (on a good day) ADSL. First time I've seen fiber here was when they started to place cables on lamp posts last week

Of course not my ISP, that would make things too easy

Routing has to be horrid to get to 1200

[keen hatch]

Old-school rural satellite internet easily gets you most of the way.

[silver bone]

Btw, fun anecdote

That fiber was supposed to be for my whole area

But won't be for now

Because one of local owners went full "get off my property" when they started placing fiber at lamp posts next to his field

And demands a payment from ISP for pure privilege of being able to set up better Internet infrastructure

He's obviously not the most popular person in our area right now

[keen hatch]

My ISP is doing it slowly. Currently my internet is technically fiber until the box on the street like 10 meters away from me and then COAX the rest of the way.

[silver bone]

All my ISP did about fiber here was forbidding the other ISP from using underground infrastructure

So instead everything is just merrily hanging in the air

(my ISP is Orange)

Company actually doing stuff is TOYA, Polish TV and telecom provider with HQ in my city

Essentially, it covers cities of my voivodeship

[keen hatch]

Had to Google "voivodeship" - don't think that is used outside of eastern Europe

[wispy valley]

I have full fiber now, pretty nice

[silver bone]

Yeah, it's a Slavic thing

[molten lance]

my town hasn't even considered in trying to setup fiber yet

[silver bone]

For most of intents and purposes, voivodeship is essentially a province
