That’s awesome how the could align the coords like that. Reminds me of Osaka where I could look up and see phone lines everywhere. It was beautiful in a chaotic and nostalgic kind of way.

There’s something incredibly reassuring about seeing your 1Gbit line physically enter your house from the street pole.

It also makes the city seems like cyberpunk central, which is pretty cool.
