of buffets and the internets

You know how a buffet works right ? Everyone takes as much food as they can before they puke their guts out. This works for restaurants because people can’t really eat as much as want to.

Okay , what if , everyone at the buffet were large eaters ? The buffet would most certainly run out of food right ?

This concept is called overselling.

But not when it comes to our internet service !

Our internet service is offered by tmnet to us on “best effort” basis. What the fuck does that mean ? On peak hours when everyone is using the internet, your tubes can only support less people than you sell to ? And you complain when we use 100% of our bandwidths all the time ?

Sure , we want to download music and movies , because we paid for the bandwidth !!
