    It makes sense. I completely agree. You know what I like it when they do not translate the different languages. If you don't understand them then tough. Read the subtitles. In that respect Inglorious Basterds was amazing. (I am slightly biased as I speak English, German, French and Italian along with the Swiss German dialect.)

    I hope the speed increases with our our cost, over the course of 6 years out internet speeds have more than doubled on telenet to 160 mbps withouth our contract price going up. I'm however hoping their upload speeds get up to par with their downloads, my upload is under 20 mbps I think.
    Also this upgrade won't include FTTH I derived this from a statement on their site saying they won't break open any streets/sidewalks or have to get into your home/business, but their will be internet blackouts if they are doing you're part however they will warn you via email/sms/letter 8 weeks beforehand. the upgrade will include the 150000 amplifiers in the network and 1,8 million other components like taps and splitters.
    (dutch source)
     
    on a side-note: the telenet CEO once said in a flemish newspaper that they won't be throttling netflix/youtube and will try to keep net neutrality, they said this around the time they partly acquirred 2 television stations and a televion studio.
    (source will be added if I find it)

    PieterDeWolf got a reaction from terrytek in Mr Obama, do you have a heart? Open letter by Mads Gilbert   
    As you all know, the conflict is Gaza is spinning rappidly out of control. This topic doesn't question who is right or wrong, but simply honors the volunteers who put in 12 - 24 hour shifts to save lives. What these people go through every day is beyond me. Respect.

    Open Letter:
    Mads Gilbert, a doctor in Gaza’s largest hospital – al-Shifa – writes an open letter as the Palestinian death toll rises steeply. 
     
    Dearest friends,
     
    The last night (19-20 July) was extreme. The ‘ground invasion’ of Gaza resulted in scores and carloads with maimed, torn apart, bleeding, shivering, dying – all sorts of injured Palestinians, all ages, all civilians, all innocent.
    The heroes in the ambulances and in all of Gaza’s hospitals are working 12-24 hour shifts, grey from fatigue and inhuman workloads (without payment at all in Shifa hospital for the last 4 months), they care, triage, try to understand the incomprehensible chaos of bodies, sizes, limbs, walking, not walking, breathing, not breathing, bleeding, not bleeding humans. HUMANS!
    Now, once more treated like animals by ‘the most moral army in the world’ (sic!).
     
    My respect for the wounded is endless, in their contained determination in the midst of pain, agony and shock; my admiration for the staff and volunteers is endless, my closeness to the Palestinian sumud [steadfastness] gives me strength, although in glimpses I just want to scream, hold someone tight, cry, smell the skin and hair of the warm child, covered in blood, protect ourselves in an endless embrace – but we cannot afford that, nor can they.
    Ashy grey faces – Oh NO! Not one more load of tens of maimed and bleeding, we still have lakes of blood on the floor in the ER, piles of dripping, blood-soaked bandages to clear out – oh – the cleaners, everywhere, swiftly shovelling the blood and discarded tissues, hair, clothes, cannulas – the leftovers from death – all taken away… to be prepared again, to be repeated all over. More then 100 cases came to Shifa in the last 24 hours. Enough for a large well trained hospital with everything, but here – almost nothing: no electricity, water, disposables, drugs, operating room tables, instruments, monitors – all rusted and as if taken from museums of yesterday’s hospitals. But they do not complain, these heroes. They get on with it, like warriors, head on, enormously resolute.
     
    And as I write these words to you, alone, on a bed, my tears flow, the warm but useless tears of pain and grief, of anger and fear. This is not happening!
    And then, just now, the orchestra of the Israeli war-machine starts its gruesome symphony again, just now: salvos of artillery from the navy boats just down on the shores, the roaring F16, the sickening drones (Arabic ‘Zennanis’, the hummers), and the cluttering Apaches. So much made in and paid for by the US.
     
    Mr. Obama – do you have a heart? I invite you – spend one night – just one night – with us in Shifa. Disguised as a cleaner, maybe. I am convinced, 100 per cent, it would change history. Nobody with a heart AND power could ever walk away from a night in Shifa without being determined to end the slaughter of the Palestinian people.
    But the heartless and merciless have done their calculations and planned another dahyia onslaught on Gaza.
    The rivers of blood will keep running the coming night. I can hear they have tuned their instruments of death.
    Please. Do what you can. This, THIS cannot continue.
