Gambleriada, Giełdy komputerowe w Polsce, zdjęcia oraz materiały

Zdjęcia gambleriady z różnych miejsc sieci oraz kilka informacji na temat giełd komputerowych i około materiałów z tym powiązanych. Na przestrzeni lat obyło się 8 imprez Gamlberiady, które zakończyły się wraz z upadkiem gamblera w grudniu 1999 r. Mam nadzieję, że materiały te posłużą wam w dalszych wykopaliskach tamtych czasów :)

The Connection

They use Inmarsat Satteltite connection since 2006.


Starlink is now operating in two of the most remote areas in the world: Pitcairn Island and Easter Island, both of which are thousands of miles away from the nearest continent

— SpaceX, Twitter

Location of sattelites : -25.066491, -130.098454 (https://goo.gl/maps/gZhAead7Eukx95rE7)

What about fiber optics

Nope, they don’t have any connection with fiber optic cable. The closest one is 1300 km far from island. Someday last and far island will be connected to The Internet by fibre optics :)

Trivia

(outdated) Pitcairn still runs of manual telephonic signals as mobile network is not very feasible and uses New Zealand’s international code. There is one satellite internet connection sponsored by government for which the residents pay around Rs. 4,700 for 2 GB data per month at a speed of 256 kbps. In 2012, however, a single 1 Mbps connection was installed on the island which is being shared by all the families via Wi-Fi.
