@lupyuen that cut-over at the end of talks was brutal. It was really a scheduling problem though. They *really* should have just added padding between sessions. You may not have to walk between sessions in a virtual conference, but it's a good time for follow-on discussions and socializing within the context of the conference. I've been annoyed at how these online conferences force you to either 1)defer all of your networking until after the conf 2)skip sessions 3)be distracted during sessions

@lupyuen That entire article is predicated on only a few facts, but just treating the traffic control, it can not only be mediated by over-selling, but better managed by using things like HTB and stochastic fairness to maximize throughput and and still give a *minimum* guaranteed bandwidth to customers. And it's not carved in stone that every customer should get 100mbits. That's quite a lot for most people really. Easy to get an order of magnitude difference and make 30 billion $ plausible.

if i had a blank smart watch i might find some good uses for it. blank as in: it comes with a kernel and you code the rest.

I just wanted to send some ♥️ to a handful of the many amazing #FreeSoftware projects that I benefit from regularly, namely:

@PINE64 For starting the mobile Linux revolution!

@kde and specifically #PlasmaMobile for taking my fave DE mobile!

#UBports Linux mobile... shiny!

#K9 - Fab email app, mainly by one person (currently fundraising to go full time)

#Fedilab ( @apps ) Making the Fediverse a pleasure to use. Thanks for sticking around!

#OpenWRT

#HomeAssistant

#Linux

and many others!

If our #privacy is only worth that much, then why can't we pay to keep it?

I'd gladly pay more than $70 a year in a heartbeat to use all of the popular platforms with guarantees of 100% privacy.

We need someone to do for privacy what #Spotify did for music. Charge users and then broker deals to pay part of it to the platforms in exchange to them agreeing to stringent privacy standards on that account, such as collecting zero data, no ads/analytics etc.

Take my money... Please.

So I haven't posted any Sims 4 stuff here for a while, but that's because I succumbed to the dark side and made a Simblr blog for all my simming adventures.

I'm currently having a ton of fun writing and sharing the gameplay of my Faux-Legacy save, and I also made some CC that I'm pretty proud of. If that sounds like fun to you, click through and check it out! ^^
