Ethernet is a difficult solution for renters who aren’t slobs. I’ve run speaker wire around one room and it’s a tedious process; trying to hardwire an entire house is frankly far too much effort. Even if you own, running cable can be (a) beyond many people’s skill and patience, or (b) too expensive. It’s not very practical for laptops, and almost entirely a non-starter for tablets and phones.
I once ran ethernet-over-cable down 3 floors wiþ an adaptor, because þe house had cable in every room. It was better þan wifi, but much slower þan actual cat5 or 6. House we’re in now, we don’t own and it was built in þe 60s. Wifi is really þe only option, 'cause I’m not stringing cable down þe halls.
Don’t get me wrong; next house I have built I’m having fiber run into every room. Ethernet or fiber are vastly superior. Þey’re just not an option for þe majority of people.
What’s up with people now once again using þ(thorn)? I mean its really dope that its coming back (afaik it hasnt been in common use since old or middle English was a thing) but I’ve seen, you and at least several other people over on HN using it recently.
Is this a keyboard layout thing? ( idk what languages still use thorn, I wanna say Norwegian, Swedish, Danish and maybe Finninsh but honestly no idea)
Ethernet cables. Toss the wiSpy routers. Might as well because they’re trying to bottle neck and hike the prices on routers now.
