It's the only option at my address other than (much more expensive) satellite. I get 5mbps down and 0.4 up on most days.

Nice! Hope there's something you like, these lists usually have a couple of genres!
This is what I was guessing they were trying to say originally, but Mozilla always seems to be terrible at getting their point across.
I really like Mozilla and the fact that they're around to provide an alternative to Chrome, but they're frustrating at times! There are way too many millions of dollars going to dead weight projects and executives that could be going to improving Firefox, the main reason the foundation exists. It consistently seems there is a disconnect between what they want to do and what their users want.
I really want to get Starlink, but the monthly cost is more than I can stomach right now. So I just keep dealing with my very slow DSL. I hear very good things about it though.
I want to see Major League Cricket sometime, they are currently splitting matches between Texas and North Carolina still. Morrisville, NC is still a 6+ hour drive, but it's better than Texas! If I were to go I would probably stay a couple of days and try to go to every match over that time. We'll see.
That is interesting that you've been to games at both extremes! I've not been to a huge amount of games, but I think most that I've been to were around the average length.
I was at a baseball game that went into the 11th (or maybe 12th, I'm a little hazy on that) inning, but nothing quite that long!
I've never been to a cricket match yet, but I plan to do it sometime! None of the stadiums are anywhere near me though, so it'll be a multi day event to plan. If I do go it'll most likely be a T20 match, so similar or shorter to a standard baseball game length.
I'm not sure how I would do at a Test or ODI match. I do watch the longer forms of cricket from home, but it's often something that I'm keeping half an eye on while I'm working on another project. I'll usually pay more attention when it's a player I particularly like or a tense section. It's not that I don't have the attention span to sit down and watch, I just have too many other responsibilities to attend to!

It's always been interesting to me that their most well known song is sung by one of their least used singers! Beside that, this is the song that first introduced me to them. Thanks to whoever pirated this song and loaded it on that used mp3 player I bought all those years ago!
Since Public_N_M_E decided to start me on my Toto playlist again, here we are! 😉 Steve Lukather is the singer on many of my favorite Toto songs, so both of these are his.

Oh, that would be great! Very complicated, but great! Both KSP and KSP2 have gotten a lot of playtime from me. They definitely helped me appreciate the effort shows like For All Mankind put into realism.
I haven't played StarCraft in quite a while! I have a copy of it and the expansion somewhere in my stash though, I might have to dig it out sometime.
That works! I have a lot of fun with space games, unfortunately it seems there isn't as much happening in the spaceflight sim side anymore.
