For what it's worth, my H@H box is an old Dell T100 poweredge, which is at least 10 years old, and is still pretty significant overkill for H@H purposes.

50 hath/day isn't particularly good, though. I'm somewhere around rank 250 daily, with a fiber connection & a cache ~650gb. European servers perform poorly on hit rate due to oversaturation.

If I had the same box in most Asian countries, I'd probably be getting 4 times that. But I'd also probably be paying significantly more for my net connection, so there is that (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

wow does the cache size dictate your hath rate?

My downloads usually never exceed 1.38 MB/s btw...

That is literally more as three times of what a certain uncle has to work with. So make yourself ready to let him wear your skin and use your cheap high speed internet.

wow does the cache size dictate your hath rate?

Static ranges have a strong effect on your hath rate, yeah, although so does hit rate (which is why Asian clients with similar caches get way higher hath rate than me).

If only I ever had 5 MB/up (is that even real? only broadband stuff for uni/work places have such up speed (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif) )

It is real and there is:

But I can't leave the computer on 24/7, and I also don't have any more free space (or almost nothing; I would have to buy another HD).

Furthermore, I know that in South America the efficiency of H@H is the worst of all.

No (unfortunately (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) ).

This is the average broadband here in São Paulo (it's pretty common around here). (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Here there are plans from 10 Mbps to 500 Mbps. From what I researched, the values vary approximately between 14 and 77 euros.

But it is true that most of the country has a bad internet (or does not, as in smaller cities that are very far from large centers; in these places only via satellite). That is why the test considers me faster than 99% of the country. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

I pay $74 for 24/1 mbit DSL.

God Bless the rural USA. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I could double/triple the speed by getting cable internet, but the price would be about the same & the cable company in my area is a shithouse.

I could also get fixed wireless or satellite internet, but those are absolute last resort crap options.

My parents are still paying 36€/month for 3.6Mbps/0.4Mbps.
Yeah, bits per second, not bytes.

One of the few benefits of living in Ukraine is internet cost usually 100 Mbit/s $6, 1 Gbit/s $10, some small cities even twice cheaper and it's quite stable (couple of hours of downtime after 0200 for the last 5 years) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Thanks for the answer, I thought 50GB was enough. Guess my 4TB HDD now has something to do.

It's cheap in dollars. But is it in гривна ?

I heard there has been a terrible inflation after the start of conflicts.

No (unfortunately (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) ).

So i guess that means no cocain covered redhead hookers for uncle from his rich brazilian druglord nephew? *sigh* I was promised those, why do i still dont get them? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

Wait, their currency is called griwna/grivna? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Yep, 150/250 гривень, in гривня and inflation since than is x3 so 100 Mbit/s used to be $18, but a bit earlier it was $12.

Hryvnia? But shouldnt that be Хривня? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) I mean г as H do i just know for foreign words or names, you know like Ганновер or Гамбург.

Iirc, when I was in Kyiv the year before the FIFA international soccer championship was held there, 5 гривень where 1 euro (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

The metro was around 2 гривень on average, and you could get a refreshing glass of Kvas from street-side tanker trucks for half гривня, iirc.

I feel nostalgic and a bit sad (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

Uncle, he gave the Standard Russian and Standard Ukrain forms; they are almost but not exactly the same.
Also transliteration from cyrillic is not always consistent. And these are not foreign names, besides.

Disambiguation : by "these", I mean those he used, not your examples !

And because i dont know anything about that i used both possible versions with v and w. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

For russians they are. Which is the reason why they are written and afaik spoken with a G instead of an H. Well okay ch aka Х. They dont really have an H. I mean they have н but it is actually an N.

But yeah, sure, please keep explaining the cyrillic alphabet to me because i dont know anything about it. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

ch = Ч, not Х, chain = ЧЕИН
Х = h like in Hello, and btw nobody spoken Gello

ch = Ч, not Х, chain = ЧЕИН

A fuck, i mixed them up again? Can we not tell mundo about this? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Х = h like in Hello, and btw nobody spoken Gello

Hm? I thought you write it without h. I mean i know Алло, even when i never used it so far, is there also a ХАлло? My russian is worse as a thought. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif)

Алло is for answering a phone call, mean 'yes, i'm listening'
there is no ХАлло, hello pronounce as ХЭЛОУ, hi as ХАЙ, and etc
G = Г, h often pronounced as Г in proper names, like Harry = Гарри
