Thanks @danjenkins.bsky.social and Sipgate, it was a great @commcon.xyz 2026. It is always a pleasure to meet old friends, make new ones, have nice chats and watch all the great talks.

I just presented my slides called "Looking at #MoQ with #WebRTC eyes" at CommCon. Part of the presentation was trying to cover the words the MoQ camp threw at the WebRTC camp and viceversa, did I miss anything? 😁

Second up on Day 2 of CommCon is @lminiero.it talking about combining the worlds of WebRTC and MOQ. 2026.commcon.xyz

I wonder how many will recognize this track? If you were a kid growing in Italy in the 80s/90s this should be close to the 98%... www.youtube.com/watch?v=51jS...

Is that 10-year challenge from a few months ago still a thing?

Here are the slides for the "Adding real-time AI pipelines to VoIP/WebRTC calls with Juturna" talk I just presented at #kamailioWorld, which I followed with a dangerous demo too (that against all odds I ended up winning 😱 ) www.slideshare.net/slideshow/re...

Now speaking at #kamailio world, @lminiero.it (celebrating 10 years of speaking at KamailioWorld)

One of the perks of sitting next to @fred.tel at #KamailioWorld... his beautiful noodling 😄

For those that may be interested, here are the slides I presented at #OpenSIPSSummit, about RTP forwarding support in the Janus SIP/NoSIP plugins. It opens the door to a lot of cool things, so if you use SIP/WebRTC a lot you may want to check it out! www.slideshare.net/slideshow/rt...

It's been some time since my last technical blog post, so I thought I'd write one on some of my efforts to integrate #QUIC, #RoQ and (partly) #MoQ in the Janus #WebRTC server. Mostly experimental, but it could be a useful testbed for the future. Feedback welcome! www.meetecho.com/blog/janus-r...

Would I use AI to do writing or animation for me? Absolutely not. Do I enjoy writing and animating? Absolutely not.

I spent a month and a half trying to learn the piano part (hey, Im no piano player, and I suck!), but eventually I did it... a cover of both guitar and piano of the beautiful intro to "Illumination", by Marty Friedman. I hope you'll enjoy it, it was fun to learn! www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6yz...

A message from your ZX Spectrum.

I think I figured out why I can't stand the music of the likes of Tim Henson, Polyphia, Ichika Nito, Marcin & co... It basically sounds like what AI thinks a guitar-based song full of solos should sound like

Is it #BandcampFriday? Yes it is! And it is #FairtradeMusicFriday too! So why not go and buy one of my albums so that I can pay for some medicines for my flu? *cough* *cough* (too shameless? 😁) lminiero.bandcamp.com mirlo.space/lminiero/

If you weren't at #FOSDEM and missed our #MusicProduction devroom, here's a "short" summary of what happened! (short is in quotes because, well, come on, we all know I can't write anything that isn't a few bibles long 😁) blog.lminiero.it/fosdem-music...

I suspected I had not really survived #FOSDEM unscathed, and in fact there it is... Stuck in bed with the flu! At least this time it happened *after* FOSDEM and not before 😁

We know that video links might still throw errors, but that should resolve itself within 24h, it's the mirroring that happens and might connect you to a mirror which is still syncing...

The Music Production devroom at #FOSDEM starts in a couple of hours! You can find the schedule here, which is also where you'll find streaming links to follow the session remotely 🙏🏼 fosdem.org/2026/schedul...

Just did my presentation on #imquic, a WIP QUIC library for real-time media( #roq and #moq), in #openmedia. Seemed well received, so I'm happy! Slides (and soon a video recording, in case you missed it) at the link below fosdem.org/2026/schedul... #FOSDEM #FOSDEM25 #FOSDEM2026 @fosdem.org

It seems the crypto community has found a new way to extract money from people. They are creating tokens for popular open source projects and inviting maintainers to get in on the scheme. Here is the email I got earlier today.

I looked up the real answer, but it’s boring, so I’m just going to stay irritated at the concept of putting crackers in a barrel. Why would anyone do that? Crackers are square. Barrels are round. The geometry is unpleasant to imagine. Also fuck ICE.

My humble attempt to play "Waiting for 22" by Queensrÿche, from that masterpiece called "Operation Mindcrime". You don't want to know how many takes I had to record to get it (mostly) right 😁 www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVqv... #guitar #harleybenton #kemperprofiler #queensryche #operationmindcrime

I recently spent some time tinkering with #rtcStats to see if/how easy it would be to use with the #Janus demos, or to monitor/analyze Janus #webrtc sessions in general. If you're curious about how that went, read the post and let me know what you think about it! www.meetecho.com/blog/rtcstat...

Hey all, just a reminder that the CfP for #FOSDEM presentations officially ends on the 1st of December, and that applies to our Music Production devroom too. If you have cool stuff to talk about, please do consider submitting! music.lminiero.it/fosdem/ Please repost for reach 🙏 #musicproduction

Roberto is a long time friend, a great musician and a huge connoisseur of progressive rock, so I was really honoured when he asked me to contribute riffs/solos to a song he was working on. I really like the result, and I hope you'll enjoy it too! soundcloud.com/primeval-dre... #OriginalMusicTracks

Lighthouse of the Week: Ep. 15 The Grim Fandango lighthouse stands stoic in Rubacava, almost masoleum-like in its construction. As you look at it, a light breeze stirs a cluster of blue flower petals around you, and you feel your chest tighten at a deep grief that still lingers here. ~for Lola 🖤

New achievement unlocked! Merge Request number 10000! 🚀 Congrats to @cadubentzen.bsky.social

Hey all, we just posted the CfP for the Music Production devroom at the upcoming FOSDEM: music.lminiero.it/fosdem/ The deadline for submissions is the 1st of December. Please boost for reach! And do reach out if you have any question. #fosdem #fosdem26 #fosdem2026 #MusicProduction #music #foss

After having a RealTime Communications devroom for 10 years at #FOSDEM, we'll sit 2026 out, as our application has been rejected. A bit of history: in 2013 FOSDEM had both a Jabber and a Telephony devroom. Then there were 2 years of no RTC things devroom.

#FOSDEM announced the devrooms for #fosdem2026 and I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that my submission for a #MusicProduction devroom got accepted, yay! Finally #music will have a well deserved place at FOSDEM! It'll be on Sunday afternoon, expect a CfP soon 🙏 1/2

Welcome home, darling! #guitar

What's worse than all those websites with their own lame "best 100 games ever" kind of lists? Me coming up with my own lame list to show how lame theirs is, of course! So, how lame do you think mine is? 😁 And how much do you hate me for ignoring your favourite game(TM)? lminiero.it/top100/?lang...

I upped my tiramisù game and made it with matcha instead of coffee... Hope I won't get arrested by neither Italian nor Japanese police anytime soon!

In the future I'd like to be remembered as the one who's still alive

New post: Is everyone switching to #MoQ? Fippo responds to some FUD about #WebRTC in a recent MoQ launch post with some historical perspective & Chrome Status data

At almost 47yrs of age, I learnt how to prepare a proper tiramisù, and the result was surprisingly tasty. This is both good and bad news: * Good because, hell yeah, I can make tiramisù now, and it's great! * Bad because I have no self control, and that could skyrocket me to 200kg weight in a zap

Is Alien: Earth the worst series I've ever watched, or is it just incredibly bad? Yes

I just published a post about Juturna, a new open source and modular project (by my colleagues Antonio and Paolo) to implement real-time AI pipelines, whether involving Janus or not. With its modular and extensible nature, hopefully it will be useful to you as well! www.meetecho.com/blog/juturna...

For those interested, the event will stream live here: stream.rtcon.live

If you're in Krakow for RTC.ON, don't miss the presentation my colleague Antonio will make there! He's been working on a new cool project called #Juturna for real-time AI pipelines, which we've been using with #Janus ourselves. The event is usually streamed, so I'll share a link when I have one 🙏
