These threads always just reinforce how much of a cunt Helmut Kohl was, god damn
Edit:
Bit of context in case people who come across this comment don't know, Helmut Kohl was the german chancellor from 1982-1998.
He completely trashed his predecessors plans for nationwide fiber in order to advance TV instead. Now it's 2023 and a staggering 19% of all households are connected via fiber.
That sounds awfully familiar.
Huh, didn't know that before. What is it with politicians and avoiding foresight?
Worst part about the cable is the packet loss. It's legit better to get a slow DSL connection in Germany than a faster cable internet because the packet loss makes RTC unusable
