HELM'S GOT FAST INTERNET

[Helm]

wwhahaoiaaaa too fast for proepr typning!1!1!!

I'm on 38 FREAKIN KILOBYTES PER SECOND! COUTN THEM!!!


So so there's a point to this thread! Show me things! Links! Stuff I should have downloaded stuff I've been missing out on for all my online intraweb years! What did I miss? OH BESIDES PORN IT'S OK GUYS I WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO GET BANNED FOR ME

[MetalMilitia]

www.suprnova.org

Try the films section, there is some pretty unusual stuff to waste bandwidth on in there.

Also dare i say it.... fileplanet.com, its considered the worst place ever by most geeks but its somtimes worth checking out the front page to find out if any new stuff it out.

[Helm]

Thanks MetalMilitia I already knew about sprnova though. More more! I must fill half a terrabyte of space!

[MetalMilitia]

http://gamefiles.blueyonder.co.uk/blueyondergames/

demos patches and other stuff. not updated as often of FP but has no queues and fast DLs.

[Matt Harty]

LIFE IN THE FAST LANE :eek

[FS]

When I got faster Internet I just spent days watching long Flash movies, downloading full-length po- uh, movies, and as complete as Kazaa could offer seasons of favorite TV shows.

[FartinMowler]

Post some music :)

[Helm]

Post it where, exactly? 25 megs is too much for my friend's server. If someone's willing to msn me and donate the temp webspace, I could give people the 40 minutes of music we recorded this summer.

[ScruU2wice]

my server isn't reliable enough to handle it. :(

[MetalMilitia]

I take it you have just aquired a new ISP?
There is a pretty good chance you got some free webspace with it. You usually get 25 - 50mb, check their website or your accout information for FTP info.

[Supafly345]

This page could benifit everyone with a lot of speed that they don't know what to do with.

[FartinMowler]

Yep with my new account I have 30 mb

[whoreable]

i can host as much as you want(within a gig) for now if you want

[Jeanette X]

I think this is worth watching, or at least listening to:

http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/noises.php

...as well as "Badger Mushroom Snake", and "Wheee!"

[AChimp]

38KB is fast compared to dial-up, but that's hardly what qualifies for high-speed Intarweb around here. :(

Other than porn, I have nothing to suggest, though. The Internet is a barren wasteland.

[thebiggameover]

here is a bunch of video game cover bands....

http://www.rock-out.net/backup

if you are in to that kind of thing...
:/

[McMock]

Well, you can now stream a bunch of stuff you couldn't before. I pretty much only use my cable to download stuff of suprnova, porn of kazaa and stream music whilst surfing.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/index.shtml

BBC Digital radio. Some shows I like are Jonathan Ross and Mark Lamarr's Alternative sixties. There's plenty of stations and shows there, though, and you're sure to find something you like. They're all on-demand, so you can listen to every show that aired last thursday today if you want to.

Em. Downloading pc games demos I do often as well. Just, when I'm bored, I download a demo and play it for a while. Then I brutally delete it in a stormish display of digital potency.

Piolet is a good P2P network for MP3 files.

Also, you can now, if you want to, do that hardcore thing where you go on to an IRC room and totally never leave there. Then you come back, scour the logs for anything that has been said about you, and minimise it again for the next day. Very hardcore. Or was it lame. I forget the difference between them.

[Helm]

haha I've decided to do this on #realagss from now on yeah.

And chimp, I didn't even have maxed out dialup running at 5.6. I had 3.3. So shut up and let me have my fun.

I played a lot of CS: Source today and it was fun. Not as many retards on the servers right now and I was able to enjoy it for an hour.

[MetalMilitia]

: O youll have to give me a game some time.
Also lots of the old custom maps are starting to be remade, iceworld, dustworld and AWP map are already released. You should check em out.

[Goldensoldier]

I'm on 38 FREAKIN KILOBYTES PER SECOND! COUTN THEM!!

You mean you get that when you download shit? Becuase i get around 300 to 400 kb when i d/l things. I sometimes get around 180 when i get on a crappy site. but 38 kb is like a really fast dial up speed?

[glowbelly]

ohio in the house :(

[Goldensoldier]

Helm where the hell do yo live in like a mountian in Iraq? You have road runner? Or DSL? Or what man?

:P

[MetalMilitia]

Helm where the hell do yo live in like a mountian in Iraq? You have road runner? Or DSL? Or what man?

Mine only goes at 30kbps, you must be paying a shit load for your connection. Sounds like t1 or something.

[Goldensoldier]

O i didnt know we were talkign about mpbs.... thougth we were talkign about mb/s.... theres a difference. Well i get around 50/60 mbps. I have wireless on my computer. I have a d-link router, the 56 mpbs one. but yeah sorry man i you wrote mb/s up there, you didnt write mbps LOL.

[Helm]

Don't make me break your fucking face

[MetalMilitia]

O i didnt know we were talkign about mpbs.... thougth we were talkign about mb/s.... theres a difference. Well i get around 50/60 mbps. I have wireless on my computer. I have a d-link router, the 56 mpbs one. but yeah sorry man i you wrote mb/s up there, you didnt write mbps LOL.

What the heck are you talking about.

[Anonymous]

yeah, mbps is the same thing as mb/s. Not to mention that (virtually) NO-ONE gets 30+ mb/s unless it's over their home network.

[MetalMilitia]

yeah, mbps is the same thing as mb/s. Not to mention that (virtually) NO-ONE gets 30+ mb/s unless it's over their home network.

Actually mbps is megabits per second and mb/s is megabytes per second.
A byte is 8 bits.
Anyway i severly doubt he gets those speeds unless he is paying £1000+ per month for his connection.

[Anonymous]

mbps and mb/s are interchangeable and can mean either, since that whole forward slash thing going on just means 'over' or 'at a rate of' or 'per' anyway. I know what this wacky thing called 'binary' is, too.

[Supafly345]

Actually mbps is megabits per second and mb/s is megabytes per second.Very rarely do I see people who want to be called a dumbass that badly.

[MetalMilitia]

hmmm ok, perhaps i am wrong. but its an easy mistake to make...

1. Mbps is short for megabits per second or millions of bits per second, Mbps is a measurement used to determine the amount of data being transmitted per second.

2. MBps is short for megabytes per second or one million bytes per second.

[sadie]

on a platter. :O

[Helm]

YEAH THANKS GUYS, THAT WHOLE MBPS OR MbPS THING WAS JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR OOH BOY THIS WILL KEEP ME OCCUPIED FOR A WHILE

[Goldensoldier]

Should i take a s/s of my internet speed? It has my internet connection, my speed, my status, ummm i think thats it... but should i take a s/s and show you guys? Maybe im mis reading shit but im just going by what is says...

[MetalMilitia]

er.. no i think helm's thread has been hyjacked enough.

Here is an excelent waste of bandwidth for you helm...

http://www.distaste.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fc.html

[Helm]

You know, thanks for helping me out and everything, but I have to say your taste in internet stuff is horrible.

[MetalMilitia]

WHAT?!?!? BUT THE EMBROYDERY AND KITTENS! You damn americans have no sence of humor. (er.. no offence)

[Helm]

Dunno, I'm greek.

[MetalMilitia]

Dunno, I'm greek.

touche.

[Supafly345]

So are you talking about Canadian "how not to biuld a birdhouse" comedy, or British "drag queen olympics" comedy being considered "having a sense of humor?"

[HickMan]

CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW INTERNET SUPERPOWERS HELM!

[WhiteRat]

Fawlty Towers!

[thebiggameover]

Should i take a s/s of my internet speed? It has my internet connection, my speed, my status, ummm i think thats it... but should i take a s/s and show you guys? Maybe im mis reading shit but im just going by what is says...

yes. take a s/s of your internet speed and make sure your IP is on there too, and then post it here...
:)

[ziggytrix]

jesus christ helm, i got faster speeds from a telephone modem - are you SURE that's your bandwidth?

http://www.dslreports.com/stest/0

that's a total waste of bandwidth, but it will tell you your connection speed (to LA >:)

for a more useful waste of bandwidth look into bit torrent clients. i've yet to use azureus (http://azureus.sourceforge.net/), but i hear it's one of the better ones.

torrents and irc are your best bets for downloading anything and everything, tho you often have to jump thru some hoops.

[ziggytrix]

torrent example: an e-book on how to swear in all languages (http://www.demonoid.com/torrents/download/27602/How_to_swear_in_all_languages.torrent)

[Helm]

No actually I have about 48 kilobytes per second downstream and about half that upstream.

[Perndog]

I WILL REACH MY SATANIC TENDRILS THROUGH YOUR INTERNET CABLE AND FEAST ON YOUR SOUL!!!

[Helm]

Play your fucking trombone, nerd.

[Perndog]

I took today off from trombone playing because some drunk guy punched me in the mouth at a party. Drums are my new hobby.
