Topic	Rural internet options are so dire.
dotsdfe 03/13/21 8:55:12 PM #27:	HODL_Austin_Era posted... Rural? Ever heard of supply and demand? They ain't going to bend over for a few people unless you some millionaire brah. Build more houses and they'll provide better internet. I get it, but I also wish that the government would offer some kind of incentive or funding for developing infrastructure on that front. I'd argue that the internet is borderline essential these days, so I really do think that it should be a bigger priority. Questionmarktarius posted... Let's ask Balrog0 how it's going in Arkansas. Arkansas is rural as shit outside of Rogers and Littlerock, thus I don't expect the internet to be all that great. It wasn't great at all in rural Missouri, where my family had nothing until the late 90s, when a computer shop in Excelsior Springs started offering dialup. I'm living in southern rural Missouri atm and the options are still very very limited here. They're improving in some areas, but a lot of others are still SOL. I'm strongly considering leaving the state, though. I've lost touch or barely keep up with a lot of my friends by now, so I'm basically only here for family when I don't even see them all THAT often. Moving out of state is becoming more and more appealing. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. <cite>dotsdfe posted [p:951683455] in Rural inte...
