In 2016, a Comcast user frustrated with slow internet used a Raspberry Pi to tweet Comcast every hour. The bot checked speeds, and if they dropped below what was promised, it sent an automated tweet showing the results directly to Comcast.

Any cute girls want me to help them ruin the lives of someone who wronged them in the past?

A depressed and traumatized I.T. Guy, two very old very gay men, and a trans preteen who has committed numerous atrocities.

As you can see, Lag was actually injured pretty badly when the SMG0 universe fell apart. He also lost his hat then, and hasn't been able to rematerialize it since.

Chip and Bandwidth are(obviously) SMG6 and Penta Knight's Admins, and are two of the oldest Admins out there, possibly the oldest if the rumors can be believed. Despite having the skill, experience, and seniority to lead the Higher-ups, they're content to stick with the SMG program. They've declined nearly all offers to help Deal With the Gamer Girl, since they feel that their assigned universe is uniquely equipped to handle her long-term. This is both because the Kirby universe is used to dealing with all-powerful beings, and because they recognize that she's not being consciously malicious, she just doesn't know any better, and honestly if anyone can get through to her and convince her to change, it's Kirby.

bandwidth

* the bandwidth we seek to command & understand must extend to allow us to append the digital rendering

& tendering of a now pivotal technology infusing our biology with the myriad possibilities implied in this wry aside

never denying a veritable digital divide implying a position of privilege

for those astride the sunny side of the street with resources replete, from mentations & forces  as well a fleet

of mendacious, of course - minions willing to defend to the death their infestations’ length & breadth should the stout-hearted among us become bereft of the will,

fail to use their judgement & skill simply perusing widgets on the web's windowsill;

not intending to upend the moral midgets meaning to drain empathy's till

selling the meme of kill or be killed just for kicks & thrills & swipes & clicks to be sure

as much as our bandwidth will allow us to endure

as humanity’s ship drifts further from sanity’s shore. * 4/23 - lebuc - bandwidth
