also hard to tell if/how much my opnsense router's shaper rules are helping - seems like 2GB/s is noticeably better than 2.5GB/s but given the change of modem, attenuator, time of day, etc it's been hard to draw firm conclusions

today is the first day in weeks I've been able to pull this amount of data at this high a rate without crashing but treating it as a potential outlier cause on Friday a p4 sync killed the entire connection before the download even started 😓

unhelpfully the day of the week/time of day seems to matter a ton - right now I'm pulling down 192 MB/s with Steam and sustaining that for 20+ minutes but other days even 80MB/s of Steam download or a simple p4 sync will cause the connection to die

I still probably need an Xfinity tech to check the lines from drop but my stopgap of adding a forward path attenuator (only impacts downstream power which is Too High) seems to be helping a ton

This is what I'm talking about when I bring up that genAI bots are making it impossible for an open web to actually exist. It becomes expensive, a pain, and domain providers like cloudflare are profiting off both the people making bots and the people who don't have the tech skills to fight them off

AI is an employee who never says no, never talks back, and who has no emotions, so you're free to be an asshole to it without consequence. Certain men have been fantasizing about this for their whole lives. They will happily burn the world down to create it.

Michael Tracey published what he said was the ID of the "Jane Doe" in the Cornell case. Then he took it down, claiming he just wanted to make a point and didn't want to see harm to the person he named. What he hasn't admitted is that he mistook info on a sketchy site for official NY court records.

An archived copy of Michael Tracey's original Substack post includes a screenshot from "eCourt Records" and the commentary: "It's [name redacted]. Don't blame me -- the New York Court System just posted it. Seemingly inadvertently. Oh well."

Screenshot of Michael Tracey's post on Substack titled "Note on Jane Doe." It reads: "After identifying Jane Doe earlier tonight, I have now removed the information I published. Why? Because the principle has been served: to underscore that permanently anonymizing litigants who make sensational, spectacular, reputation-destroying claims about others — so long as they can self-declare some form of victimization — cannot be countenanced.

It’s destructive, and an egregious abuse of the legal system by huckster plaintiff’s lawyers. This practice has to end. Lawyers who seek to monetize this sleazy tactic should have to think A LOT HARDER about the claims they’re willing to throw out into the public domain, using impressionable clients who may not even know what they’re getting themselves into.

So why have I now removed her information?

Because I don’t believe she’s the main “villain” here. I primarily blame the bottom-feeding, media-manipulating, sleazebag lawyers who’ve made a whole cash-grab industry out of this racket.

Thomas Giuffra in particular has a lot to answer for. He’s the central reason for the current debacle.

Given the intense nationwide and global interest in this case, I don’t want to bring any further negative attention to this woman. I don’t believe she ought to be punished or subjected to any retribution or humiliation. I believe a RATIONAL solution is necessary here. Not more character assassination — of her, the seven young men, or anyone else. Truly, that is my genuine view."

On vacation, so taking time to migrate off of several Omarchy-aligned products. Still shocked at the cash support for Omarchy — it's aesthetic is low-tier-to-mid at best, despite that being maybe its main selling point? AFAICT the ONLY reason to support is if you want to signal alignment with DHH 🤷‍♀️
