I was recently exploring my ISP's webpage and noticed how much data I actually consume. It's roughly 200+ GB per month. I never thought it was this high. I always suspected I was around 100gb a month. Crazy how much streaming on multiple devices causes it to jump. So glad I have uncapped plan. :)

How does everyone else compare to this?

'Unlimited', I'm not sure how much they actually allow, but I work remotely on large projects and use a lot:

At 23:59 on 29/01/2013 you had used 927.71 GB of your unlimited usage allowance.

Your average monthly usage is 674.63 GB.

Here are mine. (my plan is unlimited as well however, i never knew Time Warner allowed you to see this data)

It may be new. I've browsed their site before and never saw this. I like how you can even make it show by the hour which times you were using how much. And nice clean image you posted. Much better than mine :p

Seems like I'm about average so far for those of us on Unlimited plans. I really don't see how I could ever get by with anything under 200gb a month. With multiple consoles in multiple rooms, alongside multiple andriod phones, I would be picked clean by a capped ISP.

@ZakO - Damn man, that is a lot :p Has your usage this month been more than normal, or do you do anything that specificly uses that much usually?

I don't meter mine, but I rarely break 40GB a month. Don't do much streaming, and the fact that most scene rips are about half their old sizes means my bandwidth usage is actually decreasing.

This month is 1.4TB.. Linux Distros as well.. :shiftyninja:

Charter doesn't have a meter, but have a 250Gb cap on the plan I have. But my router does. :p

So far this month: 126,771Mb

Last month: 104,886

I had charter and downloaded crazy amounts (at least 700GB a month) and never got a warning :)

PS, your avatar, was that a restaurant in Atlanta? I used to live there

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.

    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop

      This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
