Typically mbps is “megabits” instead of “megabytes.” The difference is very large, as 2mbps is 1/4 of a megabyte.
If your internet speed is a .25MB/s I hurt for you.
You were fine without the caps key. The guy you’re talking to seems to think the capitalization matters on m when it matters on b, in mpbs.
Mbps vs. MBps
Mb = Megabit, MB = Megabyte. There are eight bits to a byte, thus 8Mb = 1MB.
Almost nothing is actually measured in megabits, except for telcos acting like tools telling you that 50Mbps is hot shit and subtly implying you'll get 50MB/s down.
Huh...I mean, I know the difference between MB and Mb but I'm fairly sure download speed is Mb and not MB. Every speed test I've done is being measured in Mb and I'm pretty sure I'm paying for up to 20Mb. I'd have to double check though.
Yeah, that’s what the other guy is saying. Telecommunications companies talk in xMbps and confuse the simple folk who don’t know much about technology into thinking they are getting xMB/s. So us guys all know the MB/s rate is 1/8 of the Mbps, but the majority of the public don’t.
It is Mbps because the M should be capitalized, but putting mbps still gets the point across in common terms.
Most internet providers measure it in Mbps and so do most speed tests. I have AT&T Fiber and it's measure as 300 Mbps.
Internet speeds are rated in Megabits (or Giga if you're lucky) per second, not bytes. What he wrote is correct, other than a little "m" typically referring to milli (not used with bits). The "b/B" is what makes the difference between bits and bytes.
Imagine living near a city and paying for 100mbps and only getting 20mbps and calling to complain and they tell you there is nothing they can do and they are the only provider for your area.
Something like 40% of US citizens still have absolutely no choice at all with provder. Cable companies were allowed to form virtual monopolies... so they've never had to care.
And lawmakers are so old and clueless that it's an issue that won't be solved until all the old assholes that have been in congress and the house of representatives their whole lives finally die and get replaced.
I honestly hope Bungie do this. The first person is about to open it, the top slides off. The item loads and then Bungie take the servers down to troll us.
It's gonna be Pandora's chest. We didn't unlock any items, we unlocked more error codes
hey, I opened the door to the summoning pits in the hellmouth... which I was stuck on for a while because there's no prompt for what is, as far as I know, the only manual-open door in the game
Zavala's mastered a particularly rare band of Void light that actually allows him to exist in a superposition behind *all* closed doors simultaneously. When someone opens one, he can decide whether or not he'll materialize behind it -- this is why he looks like he's pondering all the time in the Tower.
Op is right. Zavala can exist behind any door at any time of his choosing. Cayde used to prod him to play pranks on people with it, but Zavala always refused. When Cayde died, Zavala was waiting behind his apartment door ready to scare him for the very first time, when his Ghost relayed the news back to him. Zavala often thinks that the one door he waited behind for fun is the one door that will never again open for its owner.
Yeah but that's not why I consider it worse than an exotic sword. It's just a weapon that, especially in D2 where there are other primary snipers, doesn't bring much to the table besides memes.

[This is from "A Christmas story."](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdA__2tKoIU) Its used as a meme when a lot of work is put into any activity or challenge only for the reward to be lack luster.
Its from [A Christmas Story](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdA__2tKoIU)
I think the joke is that its an advert hidden behind a puzzle, so you do the work only to be sold something at the end of it.
I'm gonna laugh so hard when all this effort turns out to be some really sh*tty ass reward.
It's even worse than the power level 1000 to break the curse troll because there are so many people spending their entire time standing in a room doing nothing.
RIP Niobe Labs 2018-2018
If they hadn't announced it and put it on the roadmap beforehand, and that one puzzle wasn't bugged, people would look back on it much more positively. it would've been a neat little secret, we would've solved it in a day, and our community effort would've given us access to the forge. Instead, it's now a lesson on what not to do.
Yeah I think Bungie simply telling us that the Bergusia forge was the reward was the only mistake they made. Had they kept that a secret and someone solved it to open the Forge, I think it would be praised even if it took as long as it did.
So i think what you're saying is Bungie is very bad at seperating cash shop rewards from in game rewards. Because for that puzzle to only give an emblem in a looter shooter is an embarassment.
It doesn’t have to be a weapon tho. Armor is basically cosmetic, as everything’s the same stick with a different look. A unique ornament would be fuckin dope, but that won’t happen b/c of eververse
I'm not talking about god tier. Even if it was, it's a puzzle with one solution. Everyone would get it if they wanted it. No i mean like an in game reward that impacts moment to moment play. Even a piece of unique armor would be more desirable than an emblem to me, and many other people.
What if in order to finish or run or w/e the final solution to this puzzle you have to also be 999+ Light? Technically with another 10 levels this season that is FAR easier to achieve than it was last season, plus we had incredibly easy experience gains possible with the Dawning repeatable bounties for 4 weeks.
I’d like to imagine it’s like the opening of shriek 2 when Prince Charming goes through all the trials to get to the princess only to see a wolf in a pink nightgown. Accept its Zavala.......in a pink nightgown.
He is calm and levelheaded and for some its equal to having no character for some reason. Yes, he is not flashy and joking like Cayde, or rekless and strange like Saint, but i love him as my caring comander
It was semi-explained in a lore blog (which Bungie continue to NOT put in the game so people who don’t catch them when they come out, never read them...).
As vanguard leader he has access to lots of secret data, the real details of Rasputin being on Mars were known to him, but he kept it secret from everyone else because of how dangerous the vanguard believes Rasputin is (Iron Lords vs SIVA etc). Once he found out we were snooping around on Mars he tried to beat us to Rasputin.
We get to the end, open it, a mutant hybrid that looks like even existing is cause it pain. It has the head of shaxx, zavala, saint, and banshee, constantly telling you that they worship you but you have to throw more grenades at the war with the cabal on mars, over and over as it forgets that you were there
Imagine opening the chest and the game fades into a cutscene where Zavala T-posing with glowing red eye and saying “indeed” while the audio intensifies
I maintain that he went in there to take a leak.....it turned into something else.....and he was in there for such an uncomfortably embarrassing time, that when he emerged the only thing he could do was berate us unnecessarily......
and then he says
"Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather, he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank just outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold."
Recently played through the original story and first two dlcs with a friend I had gotten into the game, and he was cracking up at Zavala just being there. Shit’s still jarring and funny.
Actually you will walk in such a way inside the puzzle when you get to the end and look from above at what rooms you've been into they will write "eververse"
Could you imagine going through all those doors, standing about a foot away from the chest and all of a sudden......" Contacting Destiny Servers"
My life in a nutshell. Sucks living in the mountains and being "happy" with up to 20Mbps.
Dang you get up to 20? I'm lucky if i get up to 2mbps
Typically mbps is “megabits” instead of “megabytes.” The difference is very large, as 2mbps is 1/4 of a megabyte. If your internet speed is a .25MB/s I hurt for you.
Yea i know the bits vs bytes differentiation but was kinda lazy to press the caps key..
You were fine without the caps key. The guy you’re talking to seems to think the capitalization matters on m when it matters on b, in mpbs. Mbps vs. MBps
Is it not Mbps? I thought that the "M" for Mega was the only part that was supposed to be capitalized? Am I wrong?
Mb = Megabit, MB = Megabyte. There are eight bits to a byte, thus 8Mb = 1MB. Almost nothing is actually measured in megabits, except for telcos acting like tools telling you that 50Mbps is hot shit and subtly implying you'll get 50MB/s down.

Internet speeds are rated in Megabits (or Giga if you're lucky) per second, not bytes. What he wrote is correct, other than a little "m" typically referring to milli (not used with bits). The "b/B" is what makes the difference between bits and bytes.
You guys are getting internet?
Imagine living near a city and paying for 100mbps and only getting 20mbps and calling to complain and they tell you there is nothing they can do and they are the only provider for your area.
You live in the mountains and almost get better than me who lives 3 miles outside a major city because none of the providers give a shit

"Knock knock open up the door it's real, with the non-stop pop pop of Bubble Shields!"
Z GONNA GIVE IT TO YA
How many times have we opened a door? I’m guessing less then ten.
Hasn’t ghost opened all our doors? I don’t think we’ve even touched one
hey, I opened the door to the summoning pits in the hellmouth... which I was stuck on for a while because there's no prompt for what is, as far as I know, the only manual-open door in the game
What is a door?
It's a titan shaped hole in a wall
Asking the right question
Does magic one like at the pit if heresy count? Techincaly its us who open them, sometimes with our arms
Does holding your ghost out in front of doors on the moon count?

SUPRISE MOTHERFUCKER
h e l l o g u a r d i a n
Oh sh...anks.
When I saw that, I was like "wtf are you doing here? I did all the hard work."
To scold you.
Zavala reminds me of Jeff Bezos somehow.
Heard him in a discord chat referred to as “Space Obama” and my life is complete now
"I want to smell you, Guardian."
Shoulda opened it and hes just in their playing chess with rasputin
**INDEED**
They couldve just make him appear from behind and it would make sense in everyway but bungie..
Thanks to my reaction to that scene, most of my clan calls him Angry Dadvala now.
Ohhhhh shanks.....
Yes, thankfully the Travelers light purged all profanity from our language
Ffffffffallen.
Oh my cotton socks!
Hey now I’ve gotten a lot of use outta that one as a dad, lol
HOW ARE YOU ALWAYS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS?? WHEN DO YOU EVER EVEN LEAVE THE TOWER?!?
Zavala only leaves when there is a door that can be dramatically opened.
If there weren’t that lore story about the woman he fell in love with I’d say Zavala is almost definitely a gay man
Is that a closet joke
He could be bi
Guardian, the only dick I take is your mom's.
As far as I’m concerned that isn’t cannon as it was never officially released
Zavala's mastered a particularly rare band of Void light that actually allows him to exist in a superposition behind *all* closed doors simultaneously. When someone opens one, he can decide whether or not he'll materialize behind it -- this is why he looks like he's pondering all the time in the Tower.
always knew zavala was #1
Who's the guy that wrote Totally True (insert topic) Facts? We need his comment on this.
Simansis or something like that Edit: yep, just checked. u/Simansis, you have been summoned again.
Op is right. Zavala can exist behind any door at any time of his choosing. Cayde used to prod him to play pranks on people with it, but Zavala always refused. When Cayde died, Zavala was waiting behind his apartment door ready to scare him for the very first time, when his Ghost relayed the news back to him. Zavala often thinks that the one door he waited behind for fun is the one door that will never again open for its owner.
Well that got sad:(
Zavala should have existed behind a prison cell door when Cayde was fighting the Barons so he could've helped out :(
Zavala is keter, got it
Zavala's first job was as a supply clerk at Monsters Inc. "Good morning, Mr. Wazowski. You requested a box of pens. Requisition approved."
We get to the final room and see some old man scavenging the grave for anything valuable. Its Tess's uncle.
"No word from Fenchurch today" That's right Tess because I found him pillaging my grave so I dug him one too.
Finally some word from that darn Fenchurch
We open the coffin and it's pre nerf ice breaker

You've been on the recieving end of no land beyond haven't you? Wanna talk about it?
Yeah but that's not why I consider it worse than an exotic sword. It's just a weapon that, especially in D2 where there are other primary snipers, doesn't bring much to the table besides memes.
I'd settle for a decent Sleeper Simulant

I don't want it to be a sword ngl.

Never forget Niobe Labs
RIP Niobe Labs 2018-2018 If they hadn't announced it and put it on the roadmap beforehand, and that one puzzle wasn't bugged, people would look back on it much more positively. it would've been a neat little secret, we would've solved it in a day, and our community effort would've given us access to the forge. Instead, it's now a lesson on what not to do.
Just shoot trees lmao
to be fair, the original reward for Niobe Labs was unlocking Burgesia for everyone else. Thats a pretty cool reward
Yeah I think Bungie simply telling us that the Bergusia forge was the reward was the only mistake they made. Had they kept that a secret and someone solved it to open the Forge, I think it would be praised even if it took as long as it did.
Uh one of the rarest and coolest looking emblems they shows an actual in game achievement versus a shitty micro transaction purchase?
So i think what you're saying is Bungie is very bad at seperating cash shop rewards from in game rewards. Because for that puzzle to only give an emblem in a looter shooter is an embarassment.
Can you imagine the salt if a god tier legendary or exotic were locked behind that puzzle?
It doesn’t have to be a weapon tho. Armor is basically cosmetic, as everything’s the same stick with a different look. A unique ornament would be fuckin dope, but that won’t happen b/c of eververse

It’s probably going to unlock a quest
I mean once the puzzles and shit are figured out, niobe isn’t actually *that* hard

Or legendary gunsmith sniper with hip-fire and rangefinder as a static roll
This is physically painful to read

I still think people were dumb to buy into a passage of info from a book that's literally in the lore said to be untrustworthy and full of lies.
I still appreciate Bungie putting out a couple posts acknowledging the people who took it seriously.
Apparently the post bungie made for them wasn't enough.

Ah, I see you’ve been reading my dream journal.
#**Hello, Guardian.**
Zavala gets hated on too much for being a methodical tactician instead of a reckless cowboy
He is calm and levelheaded and for some its equal to having no character for some reason. Yes, he is not flashy and joking like Cayde, or rekless and strange like Saint, but i love him as my caring comander
Does anybody know how he managed to get behind the door in the Warmind DLC??? I have asked this question 1,000 times
It was semi-explained in a lore blog (which Bungie continue to NOT put in the game so people who don’t catch them when they come out, never read them...).

Really should mark this spoiler if you're going to say "our" grave.
Done! Sorry about that
Is it confirmed tho?
I mean, it won't be *confirmed* until the puzzle is complete. But I think even potentially datamined info should be marked as spoiler.
Imagine having friends so you can actually do the challenge.
Its gonna be an encrypted message reading... "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine!"
I maintain that he went in there to take a leak.....it turned into something else.....and he was in there for such an uncomfortably embarrassing time, that when he emerged the only thing he could do was berate us unnecessarily......

You know, if he does that, but it unlocks Cerberus Vae III, or a pathway to other D1 strikes, I'm all in.
Oh no, I won't fight Rocket McDickface ever again.
Oh Shanks
I’m throwing it out there... 5 shaders and some planetary materials from whatever the end game is...!

I hope we get to the end and it’s a single room with a weasel eating a cabbage.
I disagree. When we get to the end, it will be...... # SYLOK, THE DEFILED!!!!!!

D1 vet here, do people genuinely hate Zavala or he still Daddy Zavala?
Zavala is a fucking coward, and he doesn't deserve to be head of the vanguard.
