I’ve had it since September. It’s been excellent. Stable speeds, no noticeable dips. Excellent response time. I’m getting pretty darn close to a gig reliably when hardwired. 400-600mbps over WiFi throughout the house, but that’s a limitation of my equipment, not Fidium. Eventually I’ll upgrade. Zero downtime so far, even when we had some ice on the fiber line in that super cold spell.

Spectrum went full nuclear and tried to tell me they’d be out of business in a year and are a “fly by night” company. I just laughed. Felt great to tell them to shut my account off.

I’ve been in the pit for many shows there. It’s fine, and sight lines are generally pretty good, but you aren’t really gonna see any moshing:movement. There just isn’t the front to back room for it, and they don’t sell enough tickets for the area to cause much close contact outside of the first row of two. You’ll be close to people, but it’s never dense enough for there to be much action.

All of the security will be at the back guardrail trying to prevent people from jumping the barricade. They’ll fail 9 times out of 10 because they’re volunteers so why would they care that much.

Has he met him personally, by chance?

I’ve never met a person, Republican or Dem, who has met him in person and subsequently liked him. I know a lot of people who have worked with him, or dealt with him in one capacity or another and they all say the same thing - insufferable, narcissistic, miserable asshole.
