Speedtest.net Really High Numbers ?

i briefly scanned this and didnt see this but, no one has mentioned that the speedtest as well as majority of internet providers measure their internet in bits and not bytes, things such as files on the Internet are measured in bytes, so whatever your rating is on speedtest.net you would divide by 8 to get your actually speed you are using, so someone with 24 mbps (megabits per second) is actually downloading at 3 MBps (megabytes per second)

they do that mainly because the majority of people do not know or understand how its rated and the conversion for it, i personally downloading commonly at 2 megabytes per second (full movie in 5 minutes or so) and upload up to 500 kilobytes per second (using internet and also uploading while downloading can affect speed as well as others using the same connection) most internet providers split the connection between multiple users, i had a dedicated line (normally for high paying business) for a year before i or the company realized it, lol

something else they dont tell you, is normally the filters used when using broadband allow many cable channels through, but most cable companies actually block these, but many dont, i actually had free cable for a year or so because they didnt block the filters that allowed the channels through

although i am completely against paying for cable, considering netflix, hulu and torrenting (for those that do)

edit: my ISP sucks but i keep getting them to put me on promotional plan, so i pay 50% total cost for mid-level internet plan

LOL, google also has bought privileges to trade power, most likely for their servers, they really need that speed, they have the largest server database in usa most likely, i wouldn't be surprised if a lot of server companies just resell space with google as its parent company, dont know that for sure though, just speculation

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
