So what he pays them for the data and they can’t see if he is doing anything illegal. Just because i am curious did you really expect them to molatile him/her. Two or three games with teir dlc is about or over 1 tb anyways.
I’m in this group. I happen to do CAD modeling and have to regularly sync 10GB+ models over WAN, so large spikes or even constant uploading streams are not unusual for me.
Right, I’m not disagreeing with you there. Shit, I use a VPN for work as well. I’m not uploading terabytes of data. Downloading, maybe, but I’m not running any servers at home.
All I’m saying is that using that much upload bandwidth, regardless of what’s being uploading, might throw up some red flags at OP’s ISP. They might force OP onto a business plan.
Oh yeah, for sure. Does any ISP have unlimited upload though? I used to work for one. You’d have to go to business regardless because of the cap, from my experience.
Edit: wooooooh nevermind, I didn’t even know other ISP’s dared give unlimited upload without a business acount. I will admit though, nothing is truly “unlimited”.
I had some fun issue with inconsistent speeds a while back so I set up a docker container to periodically run a speed test and show that on a web gui. After about a month I stopped at ~200tb of network traffic both ways, not because I got a warning, but because I scared my isp shitless with statistics clearly illustrating them that they're not delivering the service I pay for.
OP probably has symmetrical fiber so there’s little functional difference. Unless you mean the ISP would just assume that all that upload usage is due to torrenting. In that case, you’d be surprised at how much upload somebody can utilize when they actually have access to it. iCloud/google photos backups of a bunch of pictures/videos you take while you’re out suddenly occurring when you connect to your home WiFi, streaming yourself playing video games online, all kinds of stuff can cause all that usage. They can still suspect but what are they supposed to do about it?
I might dislike my natal country for many aspects (Mexico) but oh boy, it’s unlimited home Internet connection and 0 fucks given about torrentig aren’t certainly those.
It kinda does since, despite GOP talking points to the contrary, Antifa is not a terrorist group or even a group at all. It’s a movement with the sole purpose of opposition to fascism.
At best, being anti-antifa is being pro-fascist and the difference between that and being a fascist is miniscule if existent.
I suspect the plastic snapped on those two portions left and right. Maybe?
That’s one suggestion when fixing a plastic thing. If there was a brittle fracture (think silly putty when you rip it apart fast), then you’ll get this “distorted plane” surface somewhere. It’ll be smooth to the touch, not glossy, and its edge/profile won’t make sense as part of the design.
Why am I micromanaging your perceptions? Sorry. I mean look for spots where the plastic snapped.
If you find the corresponding one, the other half of that snap, it’ll fit perfectly like a puzzle piece. You can glue that. I think. It’s been forever since I’ve tried this. Might be you need to rough up the surface first, to ensure glue remains in the gap. Otherwise that brittle snap is too perfect and the gap volume is zero, meaning all the glue gets squeezed out.
I think. Again, over a decade since I’ve repaired any plastic thing, that I can recall at the moment.
Also, you could probably drill out some holes (probably wanna find some ancient greek style geometry trick to line them up. I suspect you could use intersecting lines to find the corresponding point on both pieces; definitely don’t eyeball it because the slightest misalignment in joining will make a ridge a person’s fingers or thumb can detect).
Anyway drill out holes on both sides that line up, and put a little threaded metal cylinder (screw with head and tip cut off) in. Make that join really strong. Probably better than just sanding it to make glue space.
Anyway if it didn’t brittle fracture, or if it came apart just not brittlely? Word? But ductilely, like silly putty pulled apart slow, then you’ve got a whole different thing. Probably gotta heat the plastic and re-form it. Talk to someone who does cars about reshaping plastic then.
Or maybe the little plastic nipple snapped and you need to replace it with a new one. It looks softer so harder to glue? Maybe?
Hope you enjoyed my rambling. Good luck. Who’s the action figure? Is that He Man?
