The first time she manned the cannon, her aim was so far off, the only thing NOT In danger was her target.

Watched loved it. Binge watched the director Greta Gerwig and she recommended Jane . Awesomely austen series is too cute. Having loved Mansfield Park marching ahead to "Emma" recommended by my bestie.

I am not even 1/4 through and my heart is already longing for some reason to read of Radhe and Krishna.

What is your read? @bookstodon

We will at points be tricky to live with, we will never add self-righteousness and defensiveness to our list of flaws.

The easiest people to #live with turn out to be those with the keenest #awareness that they might not be any such thing.

  • How ready are you for #love?

This is the first book of the "Fancy Nancy" series. Aaanndd Oooo laaa laaa such a lovely read with gorgeous illustrations. It is charming, endearing and delightful. There are abundant books for children, but the good ones are such a treasure, and this is one such.

Which is faster – IPv4 or IPv6?

One of the early arguments used to encourage organizations to switch to IPv6 was that it’s faster. It’s true – it is intrinsically faster – but the real world being what it is, there are times when you’ll see better performance with IPv4.

I wrote a simple batch file that runs on Windows machines, and I’ve used it at various times around the country and with different ISPs. The results have been interesting. Sometimes IPv4 is faster (as measured by latency of echo replies), sometimes IPv6 is faster, and sometimes the latency is about the same.

Here’s the text of the batch file, so you can create the script locally, run it, and check your results.


@echo off
title IPv4 and IPv6 Latency Test ver 2.3
color 0a

echo IPv6 Latency Test... please wait
echo IPv6 Latency Test Results: > %userprofile%\documents\ipv4_ipv6_test.txt
ping yahoo(.)com -n 10 >> %userprofile%\documents\ipv4_ipv6_test.txt
echo.
echo IPv4 Latency Test... please wait
echo IPv4 Latency Test Results: >> %userprofile%\documents\ipv4_ipv6_test.txt
ping -4 yahoo(.)com -n 10 >> %userprofile%\documents\ipv4_ipv6_test.txt
echo.
color a0
echo Done! Results are stored in %userprofile%\documents\ipv4_ipv6_test.txt
echo.
start notepad %userprofile%\documents\ipv4_ipv6_test.txt
pause


Note 1: You’ll need to remove the parentheses in yahoo(.)com in both ping commands for the script to run correctly.

Note 2: I chose Yahoo for this test because, at this writing, Yahoo allows ping to work on their webservers. If you decide to use a different site, be aware that ping won’t work with some sites. For example, Microsoft disables ICMP on their web interfaces.

If you decide to experiment, I’d love to know what results you get.

@music I've just found a dude who recorded a progressive mix in an old abandoned building, and I think it kind of adds to the atmosphere. What do you think about it? 😎 🎧
