Nothing digital is ever 'live'. You could argue that analogue ain't either

There is no such thing as analogue the charge on electrons is discrete
ie. digital.


Its the same with photons used for transmission they can't be subdivided
so are also digital.


Now tell us how you measure the true delay at home. With anything known as
digital, you can. Don't need to be in a lab to do so.


Well you can't.
You can approximate it if that digital thing is detectable by something
you have.
