Dang our Upstream sucks.
16 October 2003

I’m trying to upload the latest movies of Photius, and I’m hanging in there at a whopping 6 KBps.  Having only 128kb upstream really sucks, especially when you want to upload, say, pictures or movies for the world to see.  Isn’t that what all the broadband commercials selling line is?  “Download huge files blazing fast!”  Exactly.  DOWNload.  But heck, someone has to upload them at some point.  For that, it’s back to the dark ages.

There are some cool videos in there; I tried to keep the file size smaller, so they are only 5-10 seconds each.  There are a couple with a ‘Photius Eye View’ so make sure you check those out, you really get a sense for just how quick the little guy is.


My wonderful girlfriend and my favorite puppy are coming up to eat the chicken that I’ve spen the last couple hours getting ready to grill.  I have them all seared up, now they’re smoking on the cool end of the grill for a couple hours.  Mmmmmmm.
