$50 for basic cable, i think that is still a bit expensive. Whatever float your boat. As for me, i prefer watching free digital ota (over-the-air) broadcasts since its free and usually compressed less than cable tv. especially if its 720 and 1080i. But i don't watch tv much nowadays. too much tv is bad for me and bad for my head. i would like to work out if i am in the mood or go to the park instead of watching too much tv or surfing the internet. what have prevent me from going to fitness center to workout are my social anxiety disorder and paranoia. its a struggle trying to hide it and act normal wherever i go where there are people around. when i go to the fitness center, i get uncomfortable around people.
I am going to go a little off-topic here but i feel like explaining myself about something about me. sorry if the story is long.
This past 1 year, i been quite disappointed in myself going to the park that i made little to no improvement on doing the split and doing jump kicks. i first practice doing the split that i learned from tae-kwon-do over 16 years ago and last year i try to practice again but my spine is croaked to the right. Not only that, but over a year ago, i trying to lay down on my back in hoping to pull my spine down by gravity from the curvative spine that i had because of the multiple chiropractics that i got from this evil guy back in late 2006. He bent my upper and lower back many times that i got curvature spine because of it. But by laying down for hours almost every day over a year ago, i have no clue it will straighten my spine a little bit i think but at the same time made my lower back stiff and last year, i have been sleeping for 19 years on the right side so much that my back is croaked to the right. This year, give or take a few months will be the 20th years that i have been sleeping almost always on the right side.
to this day, i still sleep mostly on my right side too and its still a big struggle for me to sleep on the left side or on my back that cause me to be unable to do the split all the way down when my body face the front, or when my body face to the right side. i think its mostly because of the spine croaked to the right that causes that. But the interesting thing is, after a few months of practicing doing the split, i can do the split to the left all the way down just fine since my spine is croaked to the right.
it does made me wish that i shouldn't bother sleeping on my back starting over a year a ago and my spine wouldn't be stiff like that. late last year, i felt really disappointed in myself that i couldn't do the split all the way down facing the front and the right side too. but i was hoping one day i could do it though. i count my blessings though. i am very grateful that now i get a lot of peace, freedom, and fun at my mom's home.
if i remember correctly, back in early to mid october 2014, i practices jump back kick that i got from tv that i watched. its from a music video on dvd. at first i did a really bad job, but a few days later or so, i did a decent job. i couldn't see myself but i am pretty sure i did a decent job. Then in early december 2014, i started to lay down on my back that it made my spine stiff that in early January 2015, i practiced jump back kick again that i couldn't jump as high nor is the back kick is that high either. Months later, i made no improvements with the jump back kick that i started to feel disappointed in myself especially in October of 2015 which coincidentally marked one year anniversary since i practice that.
There end of my off topic long story. sorry about my life's story.
Anyway, here is another wi-fi optical reciever that can receive up to 1 Tbits per second of data.
Mitsubishi Develops 1Tb/s Multi-subcarrier Optical Transceiver Technology
Mitsubishi Electric has developed a multi-subcarrier optical transceiver technology that significantly increases the data rate of terrestrial fiber optic communication.
A single receiver was used to achieve a data rate of one Terabit per second (1Tb/s), a 10-fold improvement over current mainstream commercial transceivers, which operate at up to 100 Gigabits per second (Gb/s) per optical receiver.
In optical communication, signals are carried on light waves known as carriers. Due to the limitation of signal bandwidth that can be generated without significant distortion, the throughput of a single carrier is also limited. Mitsubishi Electric achieved the 1Tb/s transmission rate with existing optical fibers by using a multi-subcarrier technology that transmits 11 light waves (subcarriers) simultaneously in a single channel by using an optical comb, a device that creates a series of discrete, synchronized optical waves equally and densely spaced in the channel. While conventional methods would require 11 receivers for the same number of subcarriers, this new technology only requires a single receiver due to the use of densely spaced, synchronized subcarriers in a single channel and novel multi-subcarrier signal processing algorithms. No major changes are required to the existing optical network infrastructure, keeping the cost of deploying this new technology quite low.
Usually, when using subcarriers for optical communication, each subcarrier undergoes different signal distortions, which results in damaged data like video distortion on the receiving end. To avoid this problem, Mitsubishi Electric used pilot signals to accurately realign the subcarriers at the receiver. Known pilot symbols are periodically inserted into the transmitted signal, which serves as a landmark for correct orientation of all subcarriers and prevents data damage.
This technology has enabled an experimental demonstration of 1Tb/s net data rate transmission using a single optical receiver. The experiment also achieved a spectral efficiency of 9.2b/s/Hz, which as of January 2016, was the highest in the world in a 1Tb/s transmission using a single optical receiver.
In this work, Mitsubishi Electric collaborated with the Optical Networks Group at University College London , who jointly lead UNLOC, a large UK research project to unlock the capacity of optical communications, with a team at Aston University.
