I'm not going to get into an indoor vs. outdoor cat debate but I want to point out that Jan - Mar is coyote mating season in North America, which means coyotes are more agitated and territorial and therefore an increased danger to outdoor cats. Make the best decisions you can for your pets, please.

A collection of network gear that I suspect @tracketpacer.bsky.social may appreciate.

Seen on LinkedIn this morning.

I see the Windows uninstaller is as useful as it ever was…

Periodic reminder that if you have old devices eg phones, PSP, PSVita, Ds etc, do check to make sure the batteries aren't swollen. This message brought to you by me opening the back of my New 3Ds XL and going "oh bloody hell, then"

Preproduction Pentium 4. Anyone interested in this sort of thing?

Dang. I do appreciate @cisco.com for thinking of the little things on the Wi-Fi 7 APs. In addition to no plastic in the packaging, they put the CloudID on the label where you can see it from the opening side of the box for easy scanning.

Did you know, Deterministic Latency features of MLO in W-Fi7 aren't always about lowest latency? They're about the client being able to "determine" what it wants. Here is an example of clients ability to chose something other than "lowest latency".

Quick sneak peak of host based segmentation using @NileSecure , two hosts in the same #WLAN or #wired network not being able to communicate with each other, unless there is a policy that allows that specific communication. #security #wireless #MFD13 #Nile

Every once in a while, I get worried about the people who dont like me. I wonder if there is something i can do to make them like me, and be friends. But then i remember, I dont want to be around idiots with bad taste, and that's the end of that.
