140gb for a game is insanity bro

Its a nightmare for me in Australia.

We have the shittiest internet thanks to our clown government.

It will take me 2 days to download the game.

At best I can get 50mbs download speeds on fibre in a capital city.

5g phone is faster

Does Aus just not have very many undersea connections to other continents? Or is it a more localized problem?

[-] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 2 points 5 days ago

We have 15 cables connecting the whole country.

Then when the government said they would put fibre in to every house in Australia they were voted in. Then only when to the exchanges. So it's bottle necked at exchanges onto copper again for distribution to houses.
