Its a shame people haven’t realized how few of them there are and how much better things would be if they… just … you know. Weren’t.

Meanwhile they are building bunkers and installing more surveillance we are paying for. The mind boggles at the trajectory we are on.

Theres a certain amount of inevitability in this… If its expected every single quarter you somehow produce better numbers than your last numbers… you are incentivised to make the sand castle taller by digging around its foundation spill more on the top. This applies to not only individual companies but the market at large - its practically fractal in nature.

Most of the market by now is aware AI and its promises are bullshit. Its just about passing that hot potato nuke around until it explodes. Nobody is worried about each pass making it a bigger bomb… they’re worried about not being the guy holding it when it blows.

Venture capital?! Is that you?

This is, consequently, also why all these AI companies are talking about selling computers to agents now. Its obvious the math doesn’t work when an agent costs more than a person does.

… but if agents were selling agents to agents while agenting… the math works similarly to company n increasing its market cap exponentially by “investing” in another company… o which promises really hard to invest that back in company n…

Look: its totally logical and all of this makes perfect sense. 🫧

But the Problem I was facing was unique to the 10GbE Adapter. I used a 1GbE adapter before for years, without this issue.

Every home labber will eventually have that coming of age trial: ritual combat with the monster they have constructed. Glad to see you got the best of yours haha.

Drug dealers are self employed.

Pinball and that one Weezer vid would like a word.

I find that outside of chasing diminishing returns - the biggest boost to upload speeds generally involves getting service that isn’t from spectrum or comcast.

The speeds you are suggesting seem to imply you are on some cable carrier. Be consciously aware that there is frequently fine print stating up to on your meager upload allotment. You may be optimising against unseen forces.

It looks like you put in some effort on tuning which is awesome - and hopefully is helpful to some as a starting point… but from experience tuning is often very unique to each individual setup. That said: kudos on drawing that much out of your setup.

You don’t always get what you want…

As someone who spent my formative days figuring out how to bypass early digital locks my school was putting in place to “protect us” … The system loses this game. Every time. You are taking kids with nothing but time, no apparent drawbacks, and everything to gain… And placing them against “good enough” implemented by people who could give two shits about it.

This will continue to lose until they twist the knobs too tight and hit false positive central… And oops now the populace hates it. Control for thee is fine until its for me.

Tale as old as technology itself.

So you have chosen death…
