So excited for Fort Collins. Internet access, particularly last mile "in the ground" access, seems like a natural fit for a utility model.

As a Spanish speaker, I can tell you it was a troll comment not worth translating.

As a user of Google Translate I can tell you that the resulting text is somewhat hilarious.

In the sky the stars, in the field the plows and in the middle of your ass my sausage Colorado.

Brilliant.

I pay 75$ CDN for 1Gbps with no cap in Toronto, and I used to think we had it bad in Canada..

"Fighting" with a local cable company (monopoly I assume?) to offer a 1Gpbs service in 2019 is depressing.

As a FoCo resident, Comcast sent me an email saying that they're "upgrading our network" and "increasing your Internet download speed". Not really clear what that means until I see an updated rate sheet.

I'm sure this is entirely a coincidence and has nothing to do with the fact that they suddenly have some competition now.
