@ashkitten haha yeah. there's a lot of people who think stuff is fine until you put it under load and it crumbles. honestly the only ISP-supplied stuff I've seen that were any good were from Cisco, but all the ISPs around here are phasing those out because they're too expensive.

So I just buy my own router + AP, upgrade independently, and run their supplied one in straight bridge mode. cuts out like 90% of the problems my friends see.

@ashkitten yeah, I definitely have a small-ish apartment and a really decent wifi AP, so that helps a lot too. I'm always pulling my hair out when I'm at friends' places using the ISP supplied shit wifi routers. especially since Ubiquiti stuff exists and is so solid and high performance and cheap.

@ashkitten yeah, I haven't had any problems, but then again haven't had much reason to use it until I got this new Moto with the gamepad. it's proven to be pretty great with that combo tho', the phone's x265 decode works great with the output from my NV hardware encoder, so required bandwidth is super low even for 1080p60.

@ashkitten haha yeah I got all my other stuff for the sprint done already and am just waiting on splunk support (which is super slow). so it's just killing time at this point.

wish i was at home napping. thankfully not much time left in the day, but 90m is still a lot of time to fake being productive.

this is a fun one. noticed some vulkan games don't use vsync with the nvidia drivers, so there's obvious tearing when played directly on the primary display. however, if I stream to my phone using Moonlight there isn't, because it's playing back the encoded video stream *with* vsync. 😅

@punsandpotions plz plz plz plz plz it's all i want in the world right now

@Coradeilinae this is honestly so cute and good, just like you. 🍞 ❤

My diaphram kept spasming, the age-old instinct trying to force air into my lungs. I closed my eyes and focused on fighting that feeling until feeling until it quieted to a mild case of hiccups.

Gently opening them again, I watched as the ship turned and powered away under sublight thrusters. I wanted to consider how they'd turned on me, but the fact that I was still considering anything at all was taking up most of my attention.

Looking up, I realized that even if I wasn't going to die from vacuum exposure, I was still adrift in the middle of a busy shipping lane, and engaged my emergency beacon. Hopefully I'd get picked up, not run over.

Dirk didn't expect praise. He'd gotten used to the curve balls the universe tended to throw him when things were going well. He wondered why solving the case always made things worse, but didn't spend too much time on it. He had 2 angry cops and a chihuahua to outrun.

@NBLena @bee i love this.

also. are you watching black lightning??? I need to gush about that series to someone, it's already SO FUCKIN' GOOD.

@Qwyrdo it's true! they really are. i'm really lucky that myself and my metamour are both made of compersion. makes things really easy. 😄

when you see your girlfriend and her girlfriend snuggling and taking care of each other and your eyes start tearing up because you know there is good in the world
