Try out the Radio Garden app. It lets you pick almost any radio station worldwide and lets you pick through them on a globe. I found a ton of my current favorite artists through it. A few of my coworkers from Venezuela were thrilled to be able to hear stations from their hometowns.

Sunset Rollercoaster has been one of my favorites for years. I'm gonna check out some of these other bands. Thanks for the recommendations.

Deca Joins is another good Taiwanese band. I recommend the Audiotree live session.

The cost has shot up and down post COVID. Cat6 is typically the better option as it uses thicker conductors. Cat6 is 23ga iirc. I paid $85 for 1000ft on my last project

Didn't realize that was part of the spec. But wouldn't that be 4 devices? 2 wires per device for tx/rx and power +/-.

I love PoE, but there are some hard limitations to that idea. Mainly cost per meter of cable, but also in the amount of runs that would need to be completed to accomplish that. I cant splice two ethernet cables together and run one to a nearby light or other device without a switch, which means more equipment or more cable to make it work. Also, being 48v, it will have a lower overall efficiency compared to direct wiring with 110-220v, especially with the higher resistance of ethernet vs 14ga romex. That being said, I'd love to see 48v dc in home outlets.

reWASD is my go to for this reason. It emulates an xbox controller and they cant see the difference on their end.

I thought the same thing. Was looking for the overall color temperature of the scene, but none really fit.

People are ridiculous sometimes. These companies aren't going to eat millions of dollars per day in hosting costs to appease the minority who expect everything to just be given to them.

That would be the case already, if we were all still watching stuff in 480p. As tech improves, so do the demands.

I don't believe it would work for this case. Typical DDoS is just sending a ton of junk packets at a server at the max bandwidth of the network of bots an attacker has at their disposal. Very easy to block for a large cloud provider with multi-terabit connections and multiple redundant data centers. This is different, they're asking the server to send them large amounts of information on repeat, or process massive amounts of data. The attacker is targeting the servers hardware itself through legitimate processes, so a third party wouldn't really be able to do much.

Can't decide between 7 and 11
