@nihl @wolf480pl @quad speaking of heatsinks, I should cover this RJ45-VDSL module in heatsinks because it runs _hot_!

@wolf480pl @quad @nihl it is an RJ45 socket, but only the middle pair is used (as per a normal VDSL/FTTC/ADSL line); using an RJ45 plug because it's a better fit

@wolf480pl @quad @nihl only because I refuse to buy Internet services from Virgin Media (Liberty Global)!

@wolf480pl @quad @nihl at my home in a major city in the UK, my choices are:1. pay Virgin Media Liberty Global for crappy DOCSIS with massive oversubscription problems, awful customer service, and then pay them (or another transit provider) again to get that traffic into my business' network2. get <16Mbit/sec ADSL because my street is on copper-only services via this godsforsaken street cabinet (sawn-off lamppost junctionbox): https://fs.maz.nu/chorlton-cabinet-42.jpgI choose 2 + LTE.

@quad @wolf480pl @nihl given the paucity of IPv4 addresses, they're probably CGNATting you to squeeze maximum value out of their address allocations for residential customers — maybe offering static public IPv4 only to businesses?If v6 worked for you, that'd be a big improvement… but otherwise I guess you have to make a tunnel to somewhere for a public IPv4 address? :(

@wolf480pl FPGA NICs exist, but they tend to be $$$$ and their SDKs are a pain :-(

Over the next fifteen years the tech sector in London failed to recruit and retain systems developers as "neckbeards" retired or passed away but were not replaced by a younger generation of software engineers. Historians would attribute this shortage to the "Great Catgirl Migration" as skilled workers relocated to Scotland. The financial sector in England's capital had already been struggling to reinvent itself on the global stage despite two decades since Brexit. 1/2

Then the banking systems in London completely collapsed in the early hours of the morning on 19th January 2038, and the City's reputation never recovered. Scotland's First Minister immediately pushed for and subsequently won an independence referendum.This documentary series tells the story of how trans rights destroyed the last vestiges of the British Empire, and why the countries of the formerly United Kingdom subsequently adopted anarcho-socialist political policies and economies. 2/2

What if — instead of sophons being mindless subatomic particles that fuck everything up — Cixin Liu was actually warning us about Elon?
