Comment on When a cave has better wifi than I do
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 8 months agoWell, that sort of highlights my issue, and why i assume they meant mobile data. If they are, in the joke, connected to WiFi, then they wouldn’t be suprised by the signal strength. Because they are near a router and therfore the signal is good enough to use. You aren’t typically able to connect to WiFi if the signal is below -70 -80 decibels.
I think its fairly clear that they meant mobile data as this is something you would be surprised to still have if yoy were lost in a cave.
Not that i wpuldnt be suprised to find WiFi down there, just that i wouldnt be suprised by the strengrg of the WiFi signal if i was stood close enough to a router to see the SSID.

Well now that we’ve thoroughly analyzed the joke to death…
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Well, it wasn’t the best joke to begin with. I doubt anyone gave it more than a …ha… when they read it.
Do you?
Did you?

I bet you’re every comedian’s favorite heckler at the comedy club.

Hey, fair enough, dont really heckle comedians. Its their show, unless its something they actively seek in their audience, i wouldn’t think about it.
I didnt mean to over analyse the joke, i just asked a question about the synonimity of WiFi and mobile data and was challenged on the intent behind the use of the word WiFi, so i responded with my take on what was intended. It wasn’t to ruin the joke. It was to validate my question about the use of WiFi when i believe they meant mobile data.
Frankly you are the one who made it about ruining the joke.
