#2The way the site is reacting to this hug, I'd expect it'd be better off hosted from a beefy laptop on a 25 Gig residential connection.

#4So weird hearing about how amazing this speed is for a convention center when I have 25Gbps at home and mainly just use it to download movies and anime from Usenet.

Good for you? The majority of the world is on a fraction of that, much less the US. It just became easy to get 2 Gbps in some parts of the USA while others you max out at 25 Mbps down and 2 Mbps up. This is very much good news to everyone else.

#9Wow this reads like an announcement from a different timeline (like the one that was promised when fiber was promoted in the early 2000s). 25Gb/s symmetric? In the middle of Tennessee?
Meanwhile I have traffic-shaped Comcast and no fiber in sight in Silicon Valley.

#10Meanwhile I'm in the heart of a city and stuck with unreliable, overpriced, and low speed cable/dsl from Spectrum because I'm pretty sure my landlord is taking part of their payola scheme. I used to live in Chattanooga which makes me extra bitter about it.
