Hendo Posted March 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Pretty much the only reason left to support Liberals over Labor http://www.news.com....0-1226289879196 Nope. NBN. Fucking joke, the horrible truth is that the majority amount of everyday fuckheads in our country will vote on the one policy that makes the headlines, other than the 120 other policies implemented, or even some shitcunts purely vote on gender. Moving on, the NBN. Labor is implementing an outdated technology on a fucking nationwide scale. We're using fucking wires of copper and installing them on a huge scale at a significant and quite fucking ridiculous cost. Why aren't we using fucking wireless technology? Australia is already well behind the eight ball in terms of internet infrastructure and we will continue to be in the dark ages for a fucking long time.

Tesla Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 your right about NBN being another big reason to not support labor. However my anti-NBN sentiments are for a different reason, in that it costs far to much, and they should have explored routes of getting private funding for a similar network. Obviously they wouldn't get private funding for the current system as it is unnecessarily costly and not really economically viable. Fwiw, wireless will never beat fibre optic in terms of speed/quality/reliability, but it might beat it in terms of cost efficiency. And fibre optic is not outdated neither and, since nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, it would take something rather innovative to beat fibre optic.

peted27 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 fibre is definitely the way to go.. you would neeed to build a fuck tonne more mobile towers for wireless to be of any good, and what do you think theyre all gonna be interconnected by? fibre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, thre are very high costs involved in connecting rural users, who will than pay the same amount as any other user, this is not right and is an example of why the government shouldn't undertake a project like this as they aren't adopting a purely commercial approach that will see a return on taxpayer dollars. FWIW, radio waves travel at the speed of light yes, but they aren't travelling as efficiently as fibre optics. Also not sure if the latency of wireless can be improved, would probably require a shit load of mobile towers? (which would be necessary anyway if you have a lot of people connected) And I cant see it ever being as reliable as fibre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeCee Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Fuck the speed of light, quantum computing will be developed in 10 or so years.

Tesla Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 10 years is very optimistic, and if we get to that level of understanding of quantum mechanics I'm not really interested in the benefits it has for internet speeds tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeCee Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Hahaha yeah, my point was that technology advances too quickly to keep up to date anyway. By the time the NBN is finished, there will be a much better way of doing things. Also, didn't they recently get two atoms to change in exactly the same way at the same time? Nowhere near quantum computing, but a massive step forwards nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannon Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 when i was in trade school they showed us the wires inside the NBN wire so many strands that if touched fucks your skin and if you look directly in the wire that has the light it blinds you but this is going to take way way to long to roll out and only the richy areas get it first.

cadete Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 (edited) Reminds me of melbourne uni arts students. In b4 cadete. In all seriousness cos of the unbelievably cut off for just Arts at the Uni they are actually fucken smart in tutes. At UWA in Perth and La Trobe u could lay the smack down with utter ease, Melb u still lay it down but u have to work a far bit harder. Where the annoying ones came down was the were so far left to the left of Stalin, basic conservative logic could make them look like fools - is was therefore much more fun just to take a conservative stance for lols at least (Even when you did not really believe it). Also over time the hot rich gals would tend to sit next you - As they liked you defending their Private Education and Dad's spending money on them and not taxes. Every fucken Arts Tute there came down to arguments about Private Education I am sure even a French one would... TBH I miss those tutes - Good Times, I live through my brother's Tute Smackdown's now.
