Wired ethernet resolves most of my own teams/zoom/webex etc anxiety that any glitches in anyones meeting video or audio are probably NOT caused by my own connection....

The STe came pretty close with DMA stereo audio playback, though only at 4 sample rates so software resampling and mixing was still required. I did a lot of my own tracking on an 8Mhz 1040STe then later a 16Mhz MegaSTe.

At 16mhz I could do 25Khz playback with full software mixing, or with the 50Khz playback mode the playback routine would "cheat" by just alternating the samples for the two channels per speaker which used less CPU but produced a high frequency squeal that was easily filtered by turning down the treble on your stereo :)

Dolby Surround aka ProLogic, was later enhanced with Prologic II which provided a higher bandwidth and rear left+right matrix.

Well... Ukrainian is Ukraines official language, so it makes sense to me to use the spelling derived from the official & most widely spoken language of the country.

Unlike Switzerland which has three official languages.

already already

*iOS

IOS is Cisco's router OS. Apple did license it though, to prevent any potential lawsuit...

I can kind of relate to the feeling of IPv6 being "new and scary" to back in 1995 when I barely grasped IPv4 routing... everything becomes clear eventually with experience and exposure... hopefully eventually I'll understand more IPv6 concepts with time. I "want to believe". :)

But I do fully get that firewall without NAT is perfectly fine (great) in an IPv6 world - but may be necessary in simpler multi-ISP routing scenarios...

Hehe yeah... 2400bps modems ran at 1200 baud. 33.4Kbps modems ran at 3400 baud (at most)

It's not secure at all, as some services (PayPal!) Allow password reset via SMS to your regitered mobile number. So if someone even has control of your mobile number via sim swap for 5 minutes they gain full control of your paypal acct. Heard of enough incidents of this earlier this year through one of the Canadian prepaid mobile flanker brands...

Paypal makes it hard to remove a mobile number from your account once it's on there too...

If a bank "MUST" have a phone number, I lean towards providing my good ol landline number since in theory thats a "little" harder to instantly take over or port out.

Worthwhile to "test" what it takes to reset a password on your various critical services...

"PDP" being an initialism of "Programmed Data Processor" should also be capitalized along with the acronym BASIC...

... "local LAN" is a tad redundant. :)

You can setup a receive connector on exchange online to trust mail from specified souce IP(s) (ie your onprem mailserver) with no need for additional mailbox licenses... good for alerting/reporting/MFP's etc
