Amazingly (haven’t worked on it in a while) GoNix still builds and runs (on QEMU), even on my new Mac Studio M1 😅 Nice!

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no I just purchased one of these ones instead just now 😅
Let’s see if it arrives at a reasonable timeframe 🤣 Cost me $110 AUD so not too bad, nice and compact.

NanoPi R2S -- Thinking about getting a NanoPi R2S to play with, but if you try to get just one (which presumably ships from China) its estimated to cost about $70 in shipping to Australia 😱 That's 2x the cost of the product just in shipping alone?! wtf?! 🤦♂️

Based on some experimentation of the “Shipping Estimator” on the site, looks like they charge $70/kg for shipping. I’d better get two of ‘em then 🤣

Hehe, as you all might have noticed - I test OS'es often. NixOS was too much of a pain to work efficiently in (the way I wanted), so hopped over to Fedora now. Got all my stuff working there now, as well as the desktop client. I really like how portable the code is, and how easy it is to compile on different os'es. Installed fedora with LXQT, I really like that desktop, I do not like gnome at all - I really dislike the way gnome works. LXQT is just what I need.

Incurred ~16 dropouts over the last 48hrs with ~5m outage per dropout. So I finally cracked the shits and run up my ISP to figure wtf was going on. 🤔 Turns out after a quality test on the line it was showing ~5-6DB average SNR 😱 So filed a fault with the infrastructure provider (NBN Co) whose own equipment picked up the 16 dropouts and also found noise 1/2 way up the 450m Copper cable 😅

And later on in the document on How vDSL works in Australia:
Prior to the deployment of VDSL2 technology for
FTTN, FTTB, and FTTC, the main DSL technology
employed in Australia was ADSL / ADSL2+ which
used signals up to 2 Megahertz (MHz). To achieve
much higher speeds than ADSL, VDSL2 expands
the DSL signal spectrum to up 17 MHz, which
happens to overlap with many Australian amateur
radio signal bands.

Interestingly if you dig around, you come across this article:
Mitigating Amateur Radio Interference to VDSL2 published by NBN Co, which basically states:
Some of the frequencies used by amateur radio
operators coincide with frequencies used by
VDSL2 technology, used by nbn to deliver nbn™
Fibre to the Node (FTTN) services.

Meanwhile have asked my ISP to switch me back over to what NBN call a “Stability Profile” where the DSLAM uses DLM (Dynamic Line Management) to manage the channels and noise and tries its best to keep the signal up. So far this has resulted in a ~10-20Mbps drop in bandwidth (down from ~90Mbps) but so far 🤞 an increase in stability and decrease in latency (less noise? better channels?)

This has resulted in an availability of 99.8% for the Mills DC 😢 Not happy 🤬

@movq I clone the important stuff on two separate clusters, but both are in my house. One of these days I'm planning to ask my brother to put a server of mine in his house, and then we can cross-clone for offsite backups that don't require the cloud.

I tried to clean up in the shop and I finally found my sketch for the wood glue bottle holder from several years ago. Mission accomplished! (I was too lazy to simply take measurements from the old holder.) Three stacked holes needed to be drilled in a block of scrapwood. If the bottle is running low and stored upside down in this holder, I'm always prepared to immediately apply glue without impatiently waiting for it to make it into the nozzle and shaking the glue bottle like a madman. You all experienced a ruined barbie when some crazy folks failed to put back the ketchup bottle properly. Just that PVA glue is more viscous than this red sauce.
