Well never have to run it again
I may be moving again in a year or two, so in fact ill have to take it out of the floor. No one after me will appreciate having fiber in the floor

@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zoneWell that's the difference between invasive and non-invasive surgery11:12:21
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zoneone is a lot worse than the other11:12:25
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbMost people dont run ethernet at all there days and instead rely on wifi11:12:27
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rb * 11:12:39
@spaenny:tchncs.deSpaenny Well in that case I agree with you no point 11:12:44
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zoneYou can also observe fluctuations in the signal when fiber is chopped, and there are protocols that care about this and monitor it, and let you know it has been chopped 11:12:58
@spaenny:tchncs.deSpaennySounded like its your property11:13:05

@spaenny:tchncs.deSpaennyOn the same boat11:13:49
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zonetrue, but I'm already wifi-maxxed thanks to the bpi-r411:14:08
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zoneNow I want to be wire-maxxed11:14:16
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zonetbh the bpi-r4 is an unfathomable device, how do they do it so cheap11:14:45

If you go china fiber its not that bad, around 28euros per 30m run of fiber, then you need sfps which are around 25 a pop and a few switchtes. So its not that bad tbh and i plan to do it in such way where itll be relatively easy to remove
11:14:49
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbOr i might just fucking leave the fiber lines in there11:15:00

true, but I'm already wifi-maxxed thanks to the bpi-r4
Most people dont have gigabit at home, most people dont have a computer anymore and rely on tablets/phones unless they need a computer
11:16:05
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbI get the feeling youre underestimating how different the people here are from normal people11:16:24
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zoneA tablet/phone is a computer tho11:17:13
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbRight but a tablet/phone is a small slow shitty computer you wont plug into a gigabit line11:17:59
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan - nix.zonethere's a lot of people who work on media at home too11:18:05
