And some people cannot understand this.
I've ranted before about our school, which expects students to watch videos at night. About the county real property office that requires you to make title change applications online andmyriad other places, "just go online!" as if that's easy. And then there's the people who rant about The Poors having access to government subsidized smart phones because "people don't need that." Oh, but they really do.
Anyway. Currently trying help some people understand the problem. And it's just so foreign to them they can't understand the problem (but are happy to excoriate for it).
Just download it.
Can't. No streaming.
So just get it on your cell phone.
Can't. No service.
The fact that you don't buy cable isn't my problem.
Dude. i'm not eschewing cable. I have no cable.
Get DSL then.
Dude. i'm not eschewing DSL. I have no DSL.
Order it.
The wire. Does not reach. My house.
Get a hotspot for your phone.
No cell service here.
Get one of those extenders!
You mean the kind that plugs into your wifi?
Yeah, it's only like a hundred bucks.
What wifi.
The cable.
The cable stops two miles from my house. There is no cable.
How about one of those antenna boosters? Once you plug it in, won't the wifi work?
That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.
Why did you move there?
Because when we moved here, the internet did not exist.
If you want to live so far out, that's your problem.
We are only 4 miles from town. Only 2 miles from a FioS. We don't live that far out.
So how come you don't just use your cell phone?
There are places in this country that do not have cell service. Lots of them.
You should get wifi.
There are places in this country that do not have high speed internet service. Lots of them.
I don't really understand why you can't make that work. I'll just go back to mocking people who need infrastructure.
Well better to mock than to understand, eh?
