Wifi bukkake

I am trying to control an Internet-of-Shit device that can only speak 2.4GHz wifi. I find that I am unable to operate a 2.4GHz network that anything can connect to on any channel because there is too much interference. (Even when my iPad is sitting directly on top of the AP.) 82% interference, 10% TX retries. Let's take a look at where that's coming from...

Oh. It's because literally every car in the garage is doing wifi bukkake, several floors below me, through many feet of concrete.

Normal

Just another normal day of wearing earplugs and also playing music loud enough to drown out my upstairs neighbor's concrete saws. It's like month 3 of this shit. What the fuck are they even doing up there?

Trump wilde een lagere rente, maar die lijkt hij ook onder Kevin Warsh niet snel te krijgen

De door de president voorgedragen nieuwe voorzitter van de Amerikaanse centrale bank gaf woensdag zijn eerste persconferentie. Over de door president Trump zo gewilde lagere rente ging het niet.


Thuiskomen in de stampub

Jongens. Natuurlijk, het Nederlands elftal is leuk, in Frankrijk kunnen ze goed voetballen, in Brazilië doorgaans nog beter, in Spanje weten ze ook wat ze doen, in Italië waren ze vroeger heel goed, vlak de Argentijnen nooit uit, en de Duitsers, nee, dan de Duitsers. Dat zal allemaal wel, voetbal draait om Engeland. Het komt ervandaan (geen idee of dit echt klopt, niet doodchecken, red.), de stadions staan er in woonwijken en zijn doorgaans prachtig, elke lokale pisclub heeft hordes fanatieke supporters, die mensen weten hoe je een wedstrijd beleeft, ze kunnen prachtig zingen en beestachtig juichen, ze bouwden als eerste een subcultuur rondom het elkaar de hersens in slaan ihkv van de bjoetifoel keem, ze wonnen twee wereldoorlogen en één wereldcup, en daarna helemaal niets meer. Ze kunnen ontzettend goed zuipen met die gezellige eilandhoofden van ze, die ze zelden goed insmeren en die dus steevast vuurrood worden. Ze denken elke keer dat ze gaan winnen, en doen dat natuurlijk helemaal niet. Hun meest bekende gerecht is eigenlijk een matig vermomd katerontbijt. Een aanzienlijk deel van de goede muziek is van ze afkomstig. Vanavond nemen ze het op tegen Kroatië en hoewel we op GSHQ onpartijdig zijn hopen we dat Engerland die knakkers helemaal dronken speelt en dat al die gekken op de tribune dan heel mooi juichen. Of, zoals ze het zelf noemen: limbs.

Burnham team tell ministers to delay resignations to avoid chaos

Exclusive: Allies of Labour’s Makerfield candidate concerned rapid collapse of Starmer government would increase instability

Andy Burnham’s campaign has been forced to talk ministers out of resigning as early as this weekend to avoid Keir Starmer’s government descending into chaos amid fallout from the Makerfield byelection, the Guardian can reveal.

As they prepare for a potential change of leader in the event he beats Reform on Thursday, Burnham’s team is increasingly concerned a rapid collapse of Starmer’s administration would mean further instability for the country.

Epic Games Announces Lore Open-Source Version Control System

Epic Games has released Lore, an MIT-licensed version control system written in Rust and designed specifically for "games and entertainment purposes with large file sizes," reports Phoronix. From the report: While there is Git LFS for large file storage with Git, Epic Games has crated Lore as a version control system designed entirely around the large file needs of modern game development as well as multimedia/entertainment purposes. Lore is designed to be fast and efficient for large files including binary files, and be easy-to-use including for 3D artists and more.

The Lore documentation elaborates more on its differences and motivation for development compared to Git: "No existing system was designed for the combination of constraints that large game and entertainment projects require: arbitrary content types, multi-axis scale, multi-tenant safety, and a fully open specification and license. [...] Lore is designed to combine what works in each (Git's content-addressed revision graph and centralized systems): a centralized server-of-record for durability, access control, and conflict resolution; content-addressed storage with fragment-level deduplication that is as effective on a multi-gigabyte binary as on a kilobyte of text; sparse, lazy working copies that materialize only what you need; free branching; and a fully open, publicly versioned specification and MIT license. Normal editing operations -- staging, committing, branching, diffing -- never require a network round trip." You can learn more at Lore.org. All the code is available on GitHub.
