Russia to be first country to cut first subsea fiber optic cable connecting Africa with Australia
Wild to be gaming in Australia. Playing with the chinese and africans
I’m in Perth where this cable will go. We do occasionally play with Chinese players it’s happened in a few games not a lot though. It’s mostly SEA players. WA is in this weird spot for gaming because all of the game companies put there servers in melb or sydney and we get shafted on ping. Because of the time difference if you play late at night and there aren’t enough players you often get pushed to SEA servers. We get a lot of Indos and Singaporeans on our servers too. Will be interesting to see if we end up playing with more Saffas.
There isn’t one already?
The fact that there isnt one is useed as proof of a flat earth, I wonder what they will come up with when this goes in?
I think in their crazy world, the north pole is at the center of the earth disk and Antarctica is actually an ice wall around the perimeter that keeps the water on the disk. Therefore, Africa and Australia are on opposite sides of the disk (like left-right not heads-tails) or are near the out perimeter and no one would build a cable going across that long of a distance.
If that makes your brain hurt because of the stupidity, that’s because it is. Flat earthers are only good as the target of a joke because we can all agree that it’s stupid. There are some entertaining videos on YouTube of people making fun of them, or of themselves proving themselves wrong.
I’ve only found one post in which someone points to a map, claiming the lack of undersea cables between the southern pointy bits of land is evidence they’re on opposite sides of the disc.
I wonder if the lack of such cable is related to the high Internet prices there.
Shit do i finally get better internet. Or is that reserved for the corporations?
