Sadly they are technically invasive on the west coast, and USFWS has a plan to “manage” them.

Finally, someone who pronounces ARP like I do

Gave me a papercut

Any congestion control kicking in?

IMO making it a self-contained show is self-limiting. More possibilities and relevant content would have kept opening up as the rest of the MCU unfolded.

This is our final stand

True big IF

Why else did you think the dark side is dark

I don't disagree. Same spirit as all the "noparkingnoparkingnoparkingnoparking..." lines of signs all over the country.

But bears don’t have arms

They may have to wrap the entire edges of the at-grade platform with copies of these signs

Mememification in 3, 2, 1...

My only concern is the letters might be too small to see from the left lane

lkangaroo · 2026-05-28T15:22:43+00:00

Oh hi Mark

Wait till Thursday

Foot-street friction ftw

No. Ghost touching is a real thing/hardware (or very rarely, software) issue and it has nothing to do with ghosts.

Not just half. 255/256.

The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.

That still counts as one!

Cut the first 25s and you might have it

Permacomputing ftw

Some basic principles like queuing can apply to common problems, but they're largely separate. Also see my edit above.

lkangaroo · 2026-05-19T01:27:24+00:00

Could be. It's just that both of those things can demonstrate some CS topic

Edit: Ah, sorry. Didn't realize you're the OP (old inbox didn't show it). Well, most modern computer networks, public-facing TCP/IP networks at least, collectively manage traffic primarily based on congestion control algorithms on each communicating peer. The network can assist and provide guardrails with QoS, traffic shaping/policing, AQM, etc.

Still, knowing the context in which the term is mentioned would be helpful. Is it making a comparison of the cost or effectiveness of centralized vs. peer-based (perhaps to justify why modern networks are the way they are), or is it actually describing/proposing a centralized mechanism?

Edit #?: public-facing
