Don’t care how fast my Virgin is, I still get ridiculous lag on FIFA and horrible WiFi dropouts from the SH3.

No lag here when playing cod2/4 online, my in game ping sits around 15-20 most days.

The extra bandwidth comes in very handy when using zabnzb.

Wouldn't mind those speeds for some really short 4k film downloads, 2 hours atm is too long on the odd occasion something crops up I want to watch right away, as it'll usually be bedtime before the download will be finished atm.

You're upload rate is faster than my download and upload combined

That's a very good ping for Virgin

Must be busy today... I normally get 1-2ms ping and over 900mbps download

No they're not great, I find their light output really low compared to other things and was thinking about it... but decided to stay incandescent for main lights and go some Nanoleaf Auroras instead... much much brighter than Hue.

Just looked those up... I want them now, damn.

Haha yeah... I was thinking about trying the Hue stuff thanks to recommendations on this forum... went to the rainforest site to buy some and one of their recommended alternatives was the Nanoleaf kit so I took a closer look and ended up spending over a grand when I was contemplating spending £100 on a black friday special.

They got me good.

And... I don't regret it... the Nanoleaf kits I got (2x 30 panels) are awesome... the Hue 3x bulb kit I bought at the same time I have already removed to replace with normal bulbs and looking for a friend who wants dim but colourful bulbs.

The Hue stuff is pretty good for what it is... but the price / performance ratio is really poor.

At the price of Hue stuff I'll stick to my standard LED bulbs and get off my backside to turn them on and off

Wow. I was overjoyed this summer when we finally got broadband in our little village. I went from 0.5mbps download to 32mbps and could've cried it was so blisteringly fast to me.

Here's mine, 5 miles from central London, no fibre

Moving to Michigan in a month so hopefully it'll be a bit better than this joke of a country when it comes to Internet.

Another 4k UHD for the collection.

Not seen it yet so will reserve judgement for now.

MOOGLEYS · 18 Dec 2017 at 19:03

The best bit of the film is that every time Mark Rylance talks it makes you think of the BFG.

Other than that it’s Dull, Boring and has the soundtrack from Crysis...... Very crap indeed...

robfosters · 18 Dec 2017 at 19:06

Only reason I'd watch it again is if I was testing out a new top quality Dolby Atmos home cinema system.

With the screen off it could work
