  There's been a suggestion by some (Leonard French) that this is pure publicity for both parties.

  I like to think that's what's really going on here.

  Re:

  APK sideloading is the Lite Beer of solutions. Also requires users to be tech savvy. Also requires jailbreaking if it's an iThing. Also doesn't address the fact that this ban is racist, hypocritical, illegal and immoral, and offensive to anybody who actually believes in freedom. But sure, tell 'em to eat cake.

• On the post: Dish Buys Ting Mobile To Disrupt Wireless, But Questions Remain

  

  Jeffrey Nonken ( profile ), 05 Aug, 2020 @ 08:00am

  I love Ting! Their customer service is top-notch. They usually actually deliver on promises. Simple, easy-to-follow billing. No contracts. Inexpensive, as long as you don't use a lot of mobile data, which is billed at a fixed rate. Tethering treated like any other data. All devices pull from the same billing buckets, just $5/month per device to add another.

  I'm not ready to hold the funeral just yet, but let's just say I'm compiling the guest list.

  "...with South Korea taking the top spot at 88 Mbps."

  For some reason I'm picturing Christopher Lloyd dancing about and shouting in triumphant glee in an empty parking lot at night.

• On the post: Cable Customers Have Paid $3.5 Billion For Sports They Can't Watch

  

  Jeffrey Nonken ( profile ), 10 Jun, 2020 @ 03:54pm

  "...there are around 86.5 pay-TV households in the United States. On average, each of these households pays around $20 per month in fees for sports programming. That means pay-TV subscribing households in the US pay about $1.73 billion per month in fees for sports programming."

  Wait, we had word problems in elementary school. I admit it's been a while, but... 86 and a half times 20 gives me $1,730.00 total, not almost 2 billion. Maybe my calculator is broken? And the ROI for under 100 households hardly seems worth it.

  I think there are a few decimal places missing. Just sayin'. :)
