Is 10 Mbps considered fast internet? What should your home internet speed be?
It's 10 million bits per second. In theory. I think you are asking if it's fast enough and that depends on what you want to do. There are actually two factors[*] that impact how useful an internet connection is. Speed is one and latency is the other. To understand that imagine putting a hard disk drive in a fedex box and shipping it overnight. The "speed" in terms of bits/second would be very high (about 370 mbit/sec for a 4TB disk arriving in 24hrs). However the latency (delay) would be terrible (24hrs).Latency matters if you are gaming because the difference between 50ms and 250ms is the difference between shooting or being shot. Speed and latency combined govern your "ping time". Assuming latency is reasonable, then speed is what matters if you are streaming movies. Netflix has a chart indicating how much speed you need for common activities Internet Connection Speed RecommendationsIf it's just one user, and you're not a hardcore gamer, 10mbit is quite usable. For a family it's probably on the slow side if multiple people want to stream movies I'd be looking for 25+ (I currently have 170 Mbps).Lastly you may not actually get the speed you're paying for, this is particularly true of ADSL where your distance from the central office can have a huge impact on speed - check out The Global Broadband Speed Test to find out what speed you're actually getting. [*] Actually there is a third factor, jitter, how consistent the latency is that comes into play with things like VOIP telephone services and video conferencing.
I accidentally made someone fall in love with me over the internet..., what should i do?
The best thing you can do for yourself and him is to just sever all ties. He has shown romantic feelings toward you and you don't feel that way. To continue some sort of contact with him holding out slim hope you will change your mind will only torture him. Next time, be less desirable online. Talk about all of your cats and which color of sweat pants is best. I'm now envisioning an image of a woman sitting in the dark of her house on a PC wearing sweat pants with cats all over.. <<
What is funeral picketing?
I only know of one group who does this: Westboro Baptist Church. To picket a funeral means to protest at it, with signs. The Westboro Baptist Church is very anti-homosexual and will use any means to get their message across. They found that they get a lot of press if they protest at funerals, so they carry signs such as "God Hates F*gs" and "Soldiers are dead because of f*g-loving America" and interrupt funerals of soldiers and political figures.
