I just tried NS on Dial-up
And it took me 15 minutes to post this. :headbang:
Like I told you all a couple weeks ago I would be away for the summer, partly due to lack of decent internet connection. Well, my adiction took over and I just tried this on a dial-up. I waste enough time here anyways..... so........ never again. That said, see you all later (again).
...Did you remember to turn off the stove...?

Response time wise, there isnt much of a differance whether I am on my crap connection at home or the t1 at work. Jolt is just slow, but not 15 minutes slow.

If your speed is drastically slowed down compared to other 56k users, check your phone lines for Illuminati wiretaps. They tend to do that.

As any fule kno this is a rumour spread by the Illuminati themselves - they install scattered wiretaps which do actually slow down the connection speeds, and as such are moderately easy to detect. However, these are red herrings, and they are used to steer attention away from their almost universal use of lagless telephone taps.

Welcome to my Internet universe.
Welcome to my Internet universe.You still use dial-up? Honestly! Next someone will say they use DSL or cable modems. Those things are way out of fashion by now over here on Ganymede.
