FiOS rules Pittsburgh – home install and speed test

FiOS installation in Green Tree Pittsburgh 10-29-09. My house was the first in the neighborhood to get the service, 15/25 megabits. I saw the trucks throughout the summer, and kept checking the site, and finally it was available, so I ordered right away, an upgrade from DSL. The install went well, my Fios guy was pro, I’m pleased and all of that good stuff. The optical network terminal that the installer put in was one of the new kind that’s all one piece, with fiber in, backup battery, and the home networking all in one box. Yes that’s right, the fiber comes directly into the house with this and right to the box, no outside box with power lines going back out to it. The only external part is the router. It has to be easier to install one of these, and all of the electronics are protected on the inside basement wall. Did a speed test, and sure, it’s fast. That’s the last part of the video. Now we’re ready for all of the bigger files, torrents and all of that. In fact, this video just took a couple of minutes to upload, and that would have been a half hour before.


Enterprise Ireland ‘Big ideas’ Vivian Bessler Orac Devices

Orac Devices — Lower-Cost, Higher-Performance Optical Transceivers Expectations of the Facebook, Skype, YouTube, iPlayer generation are that internet connectivity speed will continue to improve even as the numbers connected increase. There is an insatiable requirement for bandwidth and speed and the rapid growth in broadband services is increasing the demand for high-speed optical communication systems. The demand in the 10G/40G/100G transceiver markets are forecast to grow to .8 billion by 2015 and the market for 40G/100G Ethernet is also increasing rapidly. The problem is that increased speed reduces transmission distance that can be achieved. The conventional approach to overcome this limitation is the insertion of reels of optic fibre which are bulky, expensive, and not readily adaptable for systems in which the transmission distance is not fixed. The patented technology from the Tyndall National Institute and University College Cork can greatly extend the transmission distance by adding intelligence to the receiver with compact and simple electronics. This technology is termed electronic dispersion compensation (EDC). The technology can support transmission of 10 Gbit/s data over up to 900km in less than 400ns, or over 40 Gbit/s data over more than 50km.

The designers hoped to sell only a few hundred build-it-yourself kits to hobbyists, and were surprised when they sold thousands in the first month.[1] The Altair also appealed to individuals and businesses who just wanted a computer and purchased the assembled version.[2] Today the Altair is widely recognized as the spark that led to the microcomputer revolution of the next few years: The computer bus designed for the Altair was to become a de facto standard in the form of the S-100 bus, and the first programming language for the machine was Microsoft’s founding product, Altair BASIC.[3][4] (Wikipida) the MITS 8800 microcomputer is part of the LCF Group Historical Computer Collection – Altair 8800 Microcomputer – links discussed in this video Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org Apple 1 micromputer Registry www.willegal.net pdf of first ‘West Coast Computer Conference’ 1977 www.floydcountyvirginia.org Adam Schoolsky’s Apple 1 Video www.youtube.com –Important Names & Words in the History of Microcomputers Imsai

Mathieu Lemay: GreenStar Network

Mathieu Lemay, Developer, GreenStar Network Project, President and CEO, Inocybe Technologies GreenStar is a CANARIE-funded project. CANARIE contribution: M The GreenStar Network is the world’s first Internet network where the nodes will be powered entirely by “green,” renewable power. Through an alliance of Canada’s leading IT companies, universities and international partners, the GreenStar Network is creating the tools, protocols, procedures, and use cases for a growing network of ICT service providers that offer customers the lowest price and greenest services. The GreenStar Network allows data to be beamed across the network to wherever renewable sources are available; data is seamlessly transferred along the network to another operational node powered by renewable energy. Two solar-powered nodes have been launched, one at the Communications Research Centre in Ottawa in May, 2010 and the other at the University of Calgary in June, 2010.

There is a huge difference in the way the game plays. We run much faster, and we actually get hitmarkers on the first bullet! I had to lower my sensitivity because when it lags, you turn less than when you don’t. I had to get 15Mb/s upload to be able to not lag, which means that Treyarch did a really bad job with their hit detection, and also with the fact that I was not host for most of the games even if I had the fastest internet, it means that I am not buying another Treyarch game. I will buy Infinity Ward games as long as their hit detection stays as flawless as CoD4 or MW2.
