Technology

I absolutely abhor when they say "gig speed network" like they want to say gigabit but they know it isn't and make up some bullshit term that sounds similar. Every time I hear a commercial for it I get irrationally angry.

Where's the 6 and 7Gs? How much is one G?

10 Gold coins for our shitty internet please, hand it over 😐✋

Comcast is the real bottom feeder of the internet service provider industry so it stands to reason that they hope they can fool enough people to "buy" into their crap. As someone that works professionally in IT for a living, I can only laugh at the crap the sales rep tries to sell me on. When I point out the fallacies of their knowledge, I think it goes over like a lead balloon and they just quit while they're not ahead.

Dude we barely have 5G. The 5G that we currently have in some areas of the world isn't even the full spectrum

Yeah I'm seeing this stupid 10G thing advertised by Mediacom, too in my area. Like, we're just entering 5G era here and there's this...10G? So, you're meaning to tell me that we've been duped into believing 5G all along as being the next best thing but oh wait, did they dig this 10G shit out from some governmental secret program that was hidden for years to provide us this speed to browse with?
