Geek Links of the Week

Hopefully coming soon to a home near you: WiFi 802.11ah which will give you better range and less trouble from walls for less power. [Geek.com]

We’re prone to looking at the business of gaming but what about the business of the galaxy? Would the destruction of the second Death Star had an economic impact so big that it would have crippled the galactic economy? [New York Times]

Are you on T-Mobile and watching YouTube? That’s a silly question. The EFF says that T-Mobile is throttling YouTube on their network so of course you’re not watching it. [BGR]

There were a lot of fans of Patton Oswalt’s Star Wars: Episode VII filibuster on Parks & Rec. Did any of his vision for The Force Awakens come true? [Inverse]

An Awesome Games Done Quick fundraiser is coming to a close this weekend. There’s still time to watch and donate. [AGDQ]
