dotsdfe 03/13/21 7:48:02 PM #16:	DuranOfForcena posted... i used to live in a pretty rural location, and the best internet we had access to was a 56k modem, back when DSL was still pretty new and just being rolled out residentially. and the phone lines where we lived were so old and corroded that the 56k connection only connected at a max of 28.8k. i eventually got a Sprint cellphone and a plan that allowed tethering to use the cellphone as a modem, i used that for a few years, before we moved somewhere where cable was available and we finally got that. Upgrading my phone plan is probably my play if I stay here, but honestly, I'm probably going to just going to move some time soon. I moved here because it was affordable, and close to my job + family/friends, but honestly, I don't even see my family or friends that much by now anyway, and I'm really not super fond of living out of the city. I'm strongly considering a bigger move if not just moving out of state in general by now, for a variety of reasons. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.
