@ipg you know what having my old internet was like? like making web requests via carrier pidgeon. like using cables made out of molasses. like taping a URL to a snail and releasing it into the wild and hoping it just so happens to find itself in the vicinity of a DNS server. like using free mcdonald's wifi, after the hamburglar came in and stole all of their copper cabling. like shooting bits into space so they'll maybe eventually be picked up by an alien race billions of years later. like a baud rate so low it's a number scientists haven't discovered yet. like throwing a message in a bottle and hoping it gets where it's supposed to be, but that bottle is made out of the most fragile glass known to man so when you throw the bottle into the ocean, the paper inside just sinks to the bottom of the ocean, hopefully to be found by some diving team who will hopefully make out the faded letters saying i want to go to reddit dot com
