gollark: oh Cthulhu the lack of indentationAnyway, what's the problem?

gollark: The government has some sort of scheme for subsidizing internet connection upgrades in rural areas which I think we're eligible for, except we have a long contract with the ISP so it probably wouldn't be very useful in the short run.

gollark: The main advantage would probably just be an SLA (not that important, I have basically zero reliability requirements) and static IP (convenient).

gollark: No idea, didn't check.

gollark: And which seems to at least vaguely tolerate running a publicly exposed server off the connection, although they do not really make it convenient.
