Data FUP limits (that's what they call them here) have been increasing quite fast here. Though still low. And of course lots of place don't have these limits.
I'm sure most top-level routers are a lot more complex but all of the routers I've worked with don't set bandwidth on interfaces either. The "bandwidth" setting is used only in routing metrics, the router will try to transfer traffic at the best speed it can regardless of what you set "bandwidth" too. The way to limit bandwidth is with QoS, but to me net neutrality seems anti-qos
And to set QoS on essentially infinite types of traffic would be an administrative nightmare, so the easiest method would be to just limit your biggest offenders to a percentage of the pipe.
@Jesse_b Or you're running an odd shell... That second and third echo of yours should give some output, or an error if the shell doesn't support substrings.

Anyone got any ideas when GNOME 3.26 will hit the main (at least testing) repository on Arch? How long does it normally take? I think last time it took a while.
When I was a little boy, I had textile craft classes in school. We had to take a "drivers license" on the sewing machines before we were allowed to use them unsupervised, just to show that we knew how to use them properly and safely. Just saying... extrapolate to the topic of the site.
@FaheemMitha Do people learn how to use Unix nowadays? Sometimes I think it's more trial and error. Granted, that's how I learnt at first as well, but I did not have root access on the system I was fooling around with.
@FaheemMitha Basic workings of the shell and user interface. Pipelines, permissions, basic best practices with regards to the super user account. The most commonly used tools. Regular expressions and filename globbing patterns. A week-long course would be enough.

@Kusalananda Yeah, I still haven't figured it out...I think it's something to do with how I'm pulling the info from airport but tr -d " " solves my issue.
