Those of you who live in the cold frigid lands of, say North Dakota.... Vermont.... Québec....
-- how's your internet service holding up?
I have the most bullshitious ISP on earth. Even at 22 degrees (F) it's dropping out. They keep giving me the song and dance excuse about "it's cold". No shit.
Lady at the local office today tried to tell me "the lines freeze". As if electrons "freeze". Perhaps her experience is in plumbing.
One of the techs who came out described how when the temp drops that far (it's been single-digits) the equipment gets more efficient (which makes sense) and then it overloads their amps.
Uh --- get more amps? Or put governors on the ones you have? Funny they didn't mind advising ME to get new equipment (which I did but nothing changed).
So tell me ---- is there no such thing as internet in Manitoba? Is Buffalo web-free in winter? Are there no downloads in Duluth? No surfing in Saskatchewan? No Googling in Green Bay? Because "it's cold"?
