I need to borrow you at my house because I just switched to fiber, have both ISPs active at the same time and am running a battery of tests like comparing routing, testing speeds and swapping various equipment.

The same wifi router is 200-300mbps slower in my basement, tested with the same wifi 6 client from 5 ft... Only difference is the block foundation (bouncy!) and being near my main breakers = RF interference. Precisely why I don't put my wifi in the basment

Also, someone needs to tell Frontier to stop usingg flat cat 6a cables to the ONT. I threw that right out and only had a cat5e replacement, but at least it's proper. Learned that one from you

Dog, you're a jerkoff parent if you name your kid 'Jana' but it's pronounced Jenna. 100% of people are going to call her "jah-na" (Ja as in Ja Rule) and mess it up.

The ol' tism brain is at it again when it's after midnight and instead of sleeping, I'm comparing traceroutes of various services on Frontier Fiber and Spectrum (in the overlap I have both ISPs active). I'll let ya know who's got the better routes

Oh for FUCKS sake! I was testing something at work tagged an aws asset with clusterName: 'deez-nuts' and accidentally left it there. No one noticed.

Next thing you know, it showed up in our drift report when the infra code ran 🤦‍♂️

Let's look on the bright side of AI fucking up the supply chain with RAM... In capitalism, companies are chap bastards. Computer manufacturers looking for any reason to reduce the amount of RAM needed in newer devices, and it's forcing devs to fix their bloated ass inefficient software

Google Groups is a good idea in theory, but it's a pile of shit

BULL. SHIT. It's not the MacBook Neo that is making @microsoft.com strive to optimize Windows. It's that Windows 11 is an inefficient pile of shit and every app ever is built on Electron, which uses like 2GB to print Hello World.

They are TOTALLY doing this because of the RAM shortage

You can't have an OS that uses 70% of 8 GB RAM w/ absolutely no programs running. Fuck out of here. Manufacturers are dying to ship with less and the fact that Windows sucks is making every single pc manufacturer look like garbage.

Windows needs to boot and use <800 MB idle. Slim tf down ffs

You know what you can't do in the summer? Turn your heat down to 63, put the fireplace on and snuggle under a blanket with an oversized sweatshirt

Monday, August 10, 2026 12:12:49 AM from BlueSky

In winter, there are no mosquitos or houseflies

Seriously fuck the summer. I'm done with it. Heat rage
