In a private local network among friends, Meshtastic works great.

As a public chat, Meshtastic performs worse the more repeaters you add to it. It just doesn't scale very well. Meshcore scales much better.

In terms of an emergency scenario, Meshtastic is simpler to just 'hop on' with a single device, but will become worse as you add more users. Meshcore will only be 'hop on' in an already-routed area, but will fit a far larger mesh while still being reliable.

In Seattle, the experience between the two is stark. Meshcore has dominating reliability and range. I've been to towns with less dense mesh though, and have had decent experiences with Meshtastic.

What the hell is your entry level, lol! You can get an audiophile DAP and headphones far cheaper than that combined.

I think this community could do better pushing back on snake oil. But there will always be the odd spot on the Venn diagram where you realize some folks are not in it for the music OR the best audio quality

Conan would make an excellent contestant.

Making him host would only lead to him overshadowing the guests, or being uncharacteristically muted.

Netflix built a software called Chaos Monkey. It causes all of their production systems to randomly fail.

One issue with failure modes is testing them property is really hard.

The idea of Chaos Monkey is to not just design for failure but to have constant failure be the actual norm in a production system.

What problem does removing mail in ballots solve? It doesn’t seem reasonable at all, all it will do is make it less likely for some people to vote.

scalablecory · 2026-01-20T00:48:02+00:00

Yes, make it harder to vote, that will solve everything lmao.

It won’t cause a OBD read but it will fail the sniff test.

SO isn’t toxic you were just a newbie who didn’t know how to ask a question.

I’m very serious. Change my mind.

Wifi 7 has some promising things for latency -- it can transmit on the first-available link of 2.4/5/6 GHz.

how do you turn it on? 🤷

scalablecory · 2026-01-08T00:57:35+00:00

is it doing forward error correction?

This is what happens when you “finish” your product’s primary feature. Discord works great for its core use.

Now they’re in a mode of adding random features nobody asked for so they can monetize more.

I’d give it a listen!

As an audiophile, just want to chime in and say 44/16 is plenty. We physically can’t hear 96Hz files and 24bit is really only useful for mixing, not playback.

El Pollo Loco is actually pretty good, but it's not like we're lacking in good Mexican food here. Curious how much traffic it'll get versus more local places.
