I’m trying to minimize my Internet use - Ace Corona - 07-28-2025

The land lady who pays for the Internet where I live is saying I’m using it too much, so I’m trying to lessen the time I spend online.

This is why I’m posting less frequently

Lol tell her to fuck off. She's obviously obligated or agreed to pay for the wifi/internet otherwise she wouldn't be doin it.

Don't worry, browsing this forum consumes almost no bandwidth, you can even disable Javascript, here is an artificially generated estimation of how much you can post with just 1 gigabyte:

To determine how many pages you could load and how many posts you could make with 1 gigabyte (GB) of bandwidth, we can use the estimated bandwidth consumption per page refresh from the previous calculation.
Bandwidth Calculation
1. Total Bandwidth Available
  • 1 GB = 1,024 MB = 1,024,000 KB
2. Estimated Bandwidth per Page Load
  • From the previous estimate, each page load consumes approximately 180 KB.
3. Calculating Page Loads
To find out how many pages you can load with 1 GB:
Number of Pages = Bandwidth per Page / Total Bandwidth = 180 KB1,024,000 KB ≈ 5,688 pages
4. Posts Calculation
Assuming that making a post also consumes bandwidth, we need to estimate the bandwidth used for posting. Let's assume that making a post (including the form submission and any server response) consumes about 50 KB.
Total Bandwidth for Posts
If you make a post after loading a page, the total bandwidth for one page load and one post would be:
  • Total per Interaction = 180 KB (page load) + 50 KB (post) = 230 KB
Now, we can calculate how many interactions (page load + post) you can perform with 1 GB:
Number of Interactions=230 KB1,024,000 KB≈4,454 interactions
Summary
  • Pages you could load: Approximately 5,688 pages
  • Posts you could make: Approximately 4,454 posts (considering each post follows a page load)
These calculations provide a rough estimate and actual numbers may vary based on the specific content and structure of the MyBB message board.
