it’s at the point where my car is full of switches. this is not an exaggeration

hahaha i actually spelled it ‘desort’, i thought i was fancy

i started writing in diaries when i was young enough to misspell “dessert” & complained about being sent to my room without it. now i am writing in my diary about perimenopause. life sure is life.

anybody got a tesla they wanna let me poke at

does it? i’ve been inside one exactly once like 10 years ago and i did not pay attention

best book i’ve read in a long time

can i take a pcap on a tesla

you should talk to folks with a lot of cable testing experience sometime—water in cables isn’t constant but it’s less rare than some of us think 😂 kinda crazy

lol no def not a troll

i know more than many genXers give me credit for

surprise water is never a good thing lol

i Am Talking About Network Engineering to Keep The Horrors At Bay

as i’ve learned, it is specifically this pattern, with deep rounded troughs and all the pairs lining up very closely w each other, that often indicates the presence of moisture

people asked whether Cable Water is a common problem, & i’ll just say… it’s apparently common enough that modern cable testers like this will notice the TDR pattern & straight up tell you “it’s water, bro”, instead of expecting you to interpret the results on yr own so… yeap

sobbing uncontrollably? eye tampon 😭

“it’s a meth day” i say to my dog as i stare down the barrel of the adderall xr

the wiggle test

😂😂😂

lmaooo

how to come to terms with a loved one who fully believes AI will destroy the planet but continues to use it enthusiastically anyway because “my career depends on it”

i love a modern cable tester that’ll just be like “in case you’re too dumb to read this… you got cable water”

An IS-IS question for anyone who knows.

Did pre-2005 network OSs let you turn off L1 and L2 hellos per-interface? Or were you limited only to turning off a level on the entire node?

If it was possible per-interface, was the option always there from day one of IS-IS support? Or was it added later?

she is so old yet so baby. so bean. i love her so much

good to hear! i am realizing this model is more geared towards higher layer testing & has less of the features i personally wanted (like TDR, NEXT etc) but it still seems to be a good product. just not necessarily for my typical use cases

pretty sure i was told this would do a tdr but turns out it just does wire mapping 💀

yeah that’s what i figured. unfortunately frame/packet drops don’t count for bit error rate testing so i will have to make do

nooo

open source bit error rate tester software ???

you can't work with Republicans. you can't compromise with them either. you either win or they do.
