As long as she’s a legal adult, good for her. You get that coin, chica.

Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

And be grateful, GabeN and the others take 30% !
No, nonono. There is a difference between upstream and downstream. The upload would not make general use noticeably slower.
Wrong, you still need to send traffic to receive it. If upload is bottlenecked your net will feel increasingly sluggish
Well, yea, though that would suggest a very limited bandwidth
Except for "traffic shaping" and other such bullshit that may unnecessarily cause congestion, trying to optimize the shit out of that upload.
You still need to send the acks when downloading. If the upload is saturated then you will still have issues downloading stuff, as either the acks are delayed or dropped.
A few moments later the internet is slow again, the son and father are downloding her porn
Good for her!
If one upload slows down your internet you probably need a router that has a better packet scheduler. I recommend you look for one that uses FQ-CoDel
You’re ignoring the fact that most areas of the US are hamstrung by super shitty asymmetric up/down bandwidths (fuck you very much, Comcast). I have 1.3gbps down… and 30mbps up, per the contract.
Why don’t you switch to a different ISP? Last time I checked I could choose from 13 different ISPs on fiber alone, and that’s in ‘socialist’ Europe. I can’t even dream of how many options someone in ‘free market’US must have.
Regulatory capture means that a shockingly high proportion (I’d be willing to bet it’s a strong majority) of unitedstatesians have precisely one viable option for an ISP with meaningfully high speed.
Source: I’ve been forced to purchase Comcast for the vast majority of my adult life, and I’ve lived in a bunch of different neighborhoods in two major US cities.
.....yeah, because THATS what this post is about!
Why not have a fun joke and some education?
I'll play. Without assuming where anyone is from, I'll add that the vast majority of US residential Internet connections, especially those in rural areas, are not only slower than they are in much of Europe (for example) but are commonly asymmetrical, too. Meaning even if someone has a gigabit connection, often it's only 1Gbps in one direction for Americans while the maximum upstream throughput may be closer to 50Mbps. Even a top-of-the-line, 5 figure Cisco or Juniper router can't do much to improve that situation for the end user when someone starts uploading large video files.
That said, fortunately or unfortunately (as our President says), incest isn't exclusive to Alabama,

Tbf it has 2 of 4 panels complaining about slow Internet.
Love lemmy for that though :( Where would i learn about fqcodel if not here.

It will be slow again when son downloads his sister's porn. Home sweet Alabaaaama!
Maybe they should invest in a family nas then so they can share is locally
Why bother with all the fancy technology? just leave the door open.
*incest in a nas

Uploading her porn? Gross! To where though? There's so many places she could upload to, which one? So disgusting!
A fellow adherent of the scientific method, I see
Uploading wouldn't cause a noticeable slowdown for most internet uses, unless OP was also trying to upload something as well. Most ISPs offer a fraction of the upload speed as download and your average person still doesn't even notice a slowdown.
I was the sysadmin for a ISP for over ten years. When you max your upload it slows everything down.
Definitely not standard for the US, but I max my fiber upload all the time and it has zero impact on my download speeds.
I feel very lucky to have a good fiber provider servicing my house.
Modern connections are much faster
Yeah they are but most people in the country don't have 1 gig up and 1 gig down. Locally most people have less the 1 meg upload. Pointing out exceptions doesn't invalidate what I said.
Yup I have 1400 down / 40 up with my Fixed 5G home connection. It's so disproportionate but still way faster than cable with no arbitrary data cap.
Its getting better but most rural cable systems have older amps and line extenders. The upstream or return portion of them are very limited in capacity. Adding to that problem is the fact that the return on almost all cable systems is in the T channel range. This is also close to the CB radio spectrum and there are several other sources of noise that can interfere with them. It doesn't matter how many downstream channels you can bond the upstream is limited until you can replace all the equipment on a node with gear that has a larger return spectrum. The line extender on the pole in front of my house is nearly thirty years old and it is doing more than it was designed to do.
Who has 1meg internet? That wouldn't be usable as websites and apps would simply timeout trying to load. It probably would just be flagged as no internet by modern devices. Even DSL connections are much faster. It isn't uncommon to see something like 20/20.
symmetrical dsl? where?
1 meg up. Who? Lots of people. Perhaps the majority of people in the US have very low upstream bandwidth. That amount is through the local cable company. AT&T here offers much less upstream than the cable company does. If you don't live in a major population center you get slower internet. AT&T is supposed to be updating things around here finally. When I moved in here the best speed they could offer me was 3meg down 256 up. That was in 2022.
Oh and I should probably clarify for you that 256 is .25 meg.
It’s a throughput issue not a bandwidth one. Can’t make requests to download if your uplink is fully saturated.
If you're trying to play a real time online game, you will notice if your upload capacity is hogged elsewhere.
Same with anything using TCP because you need to send packets back.
With cheap routers, bufferbloat is actually more likely to cause a noticeable slowdown with uploading rather than downloading, since your upload is usually much lower it's much easier to max it out unless you have a powerful router and/or some good QoS rules defined.
Back with old DSL and especially dialup it was a much bigger issue.
