I believe you meant that you have an internet speed of 81 MegaBytes vs 81 Megabits.

From back in the day, there was a settings section for limiting your download/upload speeds, to make sure you didn’t max out your data cap/plan. I would suggest looking into that to make sure you’re not self-capping your DLs.

Also check to make sure that your ISP isn’t throttling your internet connection after you hit a certain amount of data. Look at the contract you have with them.

But like others have said, it could be a list of other reasons.

Edit: Just thought about it. Make sure that you’re connected with a Cat 5e ethernet cable or higher. You might be limiting yourself through your hardware.

If you need to get a newer ethernet cable, I highly recommend Monoprice.com as a place to buy online. Far more often, I have found that they have better prices (even after shipping,) and a wider selection of things than Newegg or Amazon for that matter.

I’ve come to accept that Firefly is never coming back. But I have a few moments when I think about how it would have gone if HBO or some other related cable channel picked up the torch and ran with it. It would have been great to get a minimum of 3 seasons out of that show. It seemed like they had enough content and character building to show.

Yeah, I don’t struggle with boycotting Amazon. The only times I’ve really used Amazon in the past have been for PC parts, audio headphones, and a random thing or two. I do my absolute best not to buy needless things as it is, and I know that there are plenty of other websites to use if I really need to get something online. (I knew this was gonna come in handy one day ha.) Here’s a website called amazonalts.org. It’s curated websites/online stores for the ethical consumer in mind. The categories are Food, Home, Clothes, Beauty, Books, Electronics, and Miscellaneous.

Lasagne. And I hate Mondays.

You’re welcome. 👍

I’ll be watching the last two episodes of Star Trek Enterprise season 3. I’m looking forward to the ending of the season. One more season to go, and then I proceed to Star Trek: Discovery. All part of my astronomical goal to watch all of the Star Trek shows and movies in chronological order.

Oh, that’s easy. It’s cooking instructions. At the top, it shows what you need and the kind of animal you need.

I would suggest setting your account to filter by “new” content. “Scale” is also useful. IIRC: It filters like “new” but uses an algorithm to show content from more of the subbed communities, instead of only showing content most recently posted, from your subs.

Thanks for the reminder to go to sleep.

Well first off, welcome back!

What kind of content or communities (that’s what we call subreddits,) are you looking for?

If you’re looking for communities, I would suggest starting with this nifty website It has a visual database of… (checks notes) 28,178 communities (!?!) and 563 instances to choose from.

If you’re looking for content, there’s nothing wrong with searching all and new. Check out !communitypromo@lemmy.ca for help finding newer communities. And here is a long list of communities that aren’t political, full of memes or tech.
