Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    I haven’t heard of them, but if someone advertised unlimited internet and cut you off for 400GB of data then I think they would get in trouble for false advertising. If you average 400GB a month and occasionally hit 700 or 1TB I wouldn’t expect to have issues.

    I often hit 5TB+ and never even considered I might hit a fair use policy. 1TB or less is well within the “I just watch a lot of Netflix” defence and so I wouldn’t be too worried about it.

      I guess I haven’t really compared my usage to others in quite some time. I did think it’d be defensible given there’s usually a 80GB+ patch or game install each month but just didn’t want the hassle of having to explain each month if I could avoid it.
