What's the status of the fiber now? So pissed with the disconnection and lag issues from a month now. These linemen don't know shit and all they say is it will take 15-20 days more whenever I ask them about fiber.

My cable splicing wala kaam is pending. Will call someone at the exchange tomorrow. The other day they didn't have the required equipment so they just left the cable hanging inside my room.

waisay app ka DSL chal raha hai ya woh bhi modem laay gaye hain?

Yeah I don't want to be without a working connection when they turn the thing on. Called them yesterday and today. No one has come yet. The guy said a lot of people left with this issue. He's considering making a separate team for it.

So PTCL guys came to the my shop today with this brochure.

According to them, PTCL fibre is minimum 15 Mbps or above. (can someone confirm this)

For new connections, charges are 9000 Rs installation for 15Mbps but if anyone chooses 25Mbps then there is an offer where user will only have to give 3000Rs for new connection.

They also said that you can downgrade after the installation of 25Mbps but didnt tell me any downgrade charges etc (can someone also confirm this if there are any charges)

They were also selling or marketing copper connections as well and were saying you can get 4Mbps on copper for 3000Rs.
After listening copper, my literal reaction was this

I`m getting 25mbps on copper, only downside is upload speed which is limited to 1mbps.

My shop is in Izzat Ali shah market.

They were standing with a truck in front of the market as well, and were saying that if you order today then they will install in 2 days (i didnt order)

I didnt ask about upgradation cost. They might still be standing there.

Switch will be flipped on Saturday according to the latest update. I was told this by the guys who came today to do the splicing. Basically everything on my end (besides the configuration part, which takes like 2-3 minutes) is ready. They said the service will be live on Saturday.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
