Pic size.
- I don't use my smartphone to take pictures, I use a... camera, that's what it's for. I know it's all fashionned and all, who uses a camera to take pictures in 2021. But what can I do, I am dinosaur, I am 44 next week !
- No I am not asking for people to watch pic size just for me, it's not fair. That's missing my point. Again I thought it should be obvious to watch image size especially from a technical crowd we have here. Just like quoting 10 pages of comments to ad a one liner or sometimes not even that, just a smiley. This does not have to change just for me ! TEA is what it is. It's up to me to adapt or leave. Nobody is putting a gun on my head to stay here. Tautech merely suggested I have a look at TEA, but he is not keeping me hostage, I am still allowed to make my own decisions...
- Fiber install : no they don't have to dig a trench, I have already paid for that 3 years ago to bring electricity. Copper line has been installed via the same trench. At the other end of the trench are both the phone pole and power line pole. My house is new but street is 95% old houses. Fiber is not there... it's in the process of being implemented. It will be fitted using the same path that the copper lines : fiber will linger along the copper lines, then down to the telephone poles then down to the same trenches/tubes that the copper line is currently using. Actually, the technician that installed my copper lines earlier this year said that when they install fiber, they actually use the old copper line to pull the fiber through the tubes/trenches ! This way they get rid of the old copper at the same time... killing two birds with one stone. So basically if I have copper line, there is no technical reason why I could not have fiber, just like all the other houses in the street.... I think this Orange guy was just incompetent and lazy. Maybe his database was not up to date as when he came my copper lines had only been very recently installed, so maybe his computer showed him I did not have copper lines so he thought too bad you can't have fiber... I guess I should contact Orange again, they might give a different answer 6 month later...
- @ch_scr : sorry it looked like I was picking on you ! I was not believe it or not !
Just the opposite : you are the only one who actually seemed to care about this issue since you thought of me !
I didn't even plan on "complaining" about it or anything, but since you explicitly put my name in there, would have been rude not to reply, so I did !
I was only joking, was not really complaining, was being sarcastic / friendly actually, believe it or not !
but then since others replied, it was the opportunity to discuss the root of the problem, which has nothing to do with you particularly, it's a general disease that spreads the internet, but that I was kinda shocked would affect a place like TEA, who should know much better.
Anyway it's not about me, it's about everybody watching this thread, being considerate for other people, technical common sense, and what used to be obvious, widely accepted netiquette.
I guess I am just obsolete so I will just go and hide, I have to adapt to the new ways of the internet. or die.
Maybe if I can get fiber one day I will take my revenge and too post GB worth of pics each and every day. 20MP pics with zero interest and super blurry, just because. And when someone complains about it I will tell him to stop whining !
