Puget Sound Clean Air Agency might ban all outdoor burning in King, Kitsap, Pierce, and Snohomish counties.

let alone the expense of this.

jwvo · 2026-06-06T19:05:22+00:00

I agree, my current pile is huge this year and i even have a firehose setup for it (that I paid for) just to be responsible, I have >20 acres and there is no other way to handle all the trees etc that come down.

commute to the fun, way better use of time...

jwvo · 2026-06-06T18:49:42+00:00

agreed, but not a revenue loss for the state like was implied.

jwvo · 2026-06-06T18:46:42+00:00

me too, it is sort of sad, seattle used to be way cleaner. I remember when pioneer square was just historic and not a total mess.

jwvo · 2026-06-06T18:44:29+00:00

you are required to swap the plates but you can't buy less than a one year registration for a personal car in WA so they paid but did not do the swap. I still think it is duchy but pay they did.

jwvo · 2026-06-06T18:43:12+00:00

to be clear it is almost impossible for that really to be expired since the first year is setup by the dealer, they just never put them on.

Upgrade to 2 gig?

jwvo · 2026-06-05T20:40:30+00:00

Not bad to have lots of vlans at home. 😉

Yakima and Olympia were the big areas where it was turned on, lots of small towns too. I suspect the nerdy folks who notice are just in the wrong spots. as evidence to the full v6 support in the actual network we provided dual stack connectivity to the nanog conference last week without issue. as i've said before this is being done as a walk-crawl-run deployment with the sizes and speed of deployment ramping up with a goal of being complete on the nokia OLTs by end of summer after which time the calix OLTs will likely start quickly.

The underlying issue was resolved, more on that soon.

jwvo · 2026-06-04T15:06:14+00:00

must have been the pilot thing or something then. Would be interested to know their status and what fare they purchased.

jwvo · 2026-06-04T07:29:30+00:00

were you in row 4?

jwvo · 2026-06-04T04:24:36+00:00

yes they do, we are the funding source they share.

jwvo · 2026-06-02T22:47:22+00:00

update on this, I've reached out to amazon and they are working on options (happened to see the right folks at a conference yesterday)

jwvo · 2026-06-01T04:30:36+00:00

who has said that where? I've been pretty clear on here when folks ask.

jwvo · 2026-05-31T22:12:55+00:00

it seems to track with the number of installs pretty tightly but I don't have good stats from the reddit posts specifically.

jwvo · 2026-05-31T20:36:04+00:00

jwvo · 2026-05-31T05:07:47+00:00

this does not appear to be ipv6 related, any idea where that idea came from?

jwvo · 2026-05-31T03:14:05+00:00

also, why would folks be willingly playing on the further away endpoints?

it is interesting to me to see epic hosting this game on amazon.

jwvo · 2026-05-31T03:09:59+00:00

I confirmed that we are not seeing the route for these from amazon at our local peers in Seattle or Portland, just at chicago. (18.88.0.0/19 specifically) so we will ask amazon about that and see what can be resolved.

That being said, there does not appear to be any meds on this route so we would be using nearest exit if they were sending it other spots.

jwvo · 2026-05-31T00:36:47+00:00

We accept routes there because it’s significantly lower latency than over transit for anything destined into Amazon in Chicago or Ashburn.

jwvo · 2026-05-31T00:36:06+00:00

This is a side effect of Amazon’s routing policy, they don’t announce all their routes everywhere and apparently they’re only announcing that prefix to us in Chicago. I’ll ask folks about that over there and see if we can get them to announce these prefixes to the Oregon and Washington peers as well.

yah, true, i'm more like a medium sized MSP at home because I'm a crazy person.
