“All in” as long as they don’t micro-trench in an area with freeze/thaw cycles. Yes, I’m still salty they pulled out of Louisville KY.

At least they left $3MM to pave the roads they tore up. Get real points on that one.


"All in" apparently means paring down the service options on a semi-abandoned, poorly-planned venture that baited and switched neighborhoods all over the country.

It's astonishing how deep Google's PR bullshit can be sometimes.


Seems like they realized Stadia isn't gonna work unless they build up the infrastructure they laid down and then forgot about.
