Channel width is a router setting so it affects everyone who connects to that router. With 40 MHz channel width the maximum connection speed of 5 GHz network is between 150 and 300 Mbps, depending on which Wi-Fi version the router and devices support. If your internet connection happens to be 100 Mbps, it wouldn’t benefit having a faster Wi-Fi connection. Except that the connection quality affects the connection speed, so that 150 Mbps might be less than 100 Mbps if the device is far from the router or the connection is bad for some other reason. The connection speed is important only when downloading or uploading big files. For typical web browsing, video streaming and gaming the connection speed of few tens of Mbps is sufficient. DNS resolving speed for web browsing and ping for gaming are much more important than connection speed.

There’s probably no need to set the 5 GHz channel width to lower than 40 MHz unless the 5 GHz band is really crowded around you. 2.4 GHz should almost always be set to 20 MHz if there are other Wi-Fi networks.

Stupid Differently. Apple’s new slogan.

Many plants have anti-nutrients, compounds that inhibit absorption of nutrients. Both coffee and tea inhibit absorption of some minerals, such as iron.

NetSpot and InSSIDer are often recommended. I also noticed that Apple’s AirPort Utility (iOS) can show channels and signal strength of nearby networks. You need to turn on a setting in the Settings app to enable that feature. But it doesn’t have a clear UI that would help you to figure out the best channels.

Wi-Fi extenders are usually worthless. If you want to extend your network you should use mesh network.

Another thing that helps with interference is lowering the channel width. Using wider channels gives better throughput but there will be more interference. If you don’t transfer much data between your devices wirelessly and you don’t have some crazy fast internet connection, setting the channel width to the lowest for both bands is the safest option.

Missing lids on the cassette decks gives it away that the device might no longer be fully functional, but thanks for confirming it.

Another good network troubleshooting step is to simply restart the router by unplugging the power cable for 30 or so seconds. It can fix many network related issues with little to no effort and is good practice for security reasons as well. (Restarting the router will effectively close any malware running in router and as long as the router doesn’t start them again after restart, you’ll be safe until your router is again compromised.)

Have you recently moved the router to new location or moved objects around the router? Check the router’s environment for any metal objects. They can cause significant interference. And then there are dead spots. Regardless where inside a building you place Wi-Fi access point, somewhere within its range there is most likely at least one spot where the signal cancels itself.

If the router’s location or “gaming location” has not changed, the reason most likely is that the channel used by the router has become congested. For both 2.4GHz and 5GHz there are recommended channels one should use, and you should choose the one that is least used around you. There are no tools for iOS devices that can help with that because Apple has locked down the required functionality, so use either computer or Android. EDIT: Apple’s AirPort Utility has this functionality after you enable it in Settings app.

5GHz is better for gaming due to better latency. But if you can’t play close enough to the router, 2.4GHz might provide more stable connection.

That thing is about 70 meters long and weights 300 tons and some.

Tea Adventures has a long list of online stores that sell tea and teaware. There’s a search field that can be used to filter the list. For example, a search for “teaw states” gives a list of stores in The United States that sells teaware.

Battery water is quite readily available everywhere and it’s cheap.

Säätösauva saatiin korjattua, tehotaso palautettua normaaliksi, mutta saman tien pukkaa uutta ongelmaa. Turbiinipuolen ongelman takia tehotaso tämän päivän ajan 1220MW.

Painevesireaktoreissa (kuten OL3) ne ohjaussauvat on sähkömagneetilla kiinni nostimissa. Hätätilanteessa riittää, että katkoo virrat magneeteista, niin ne sauvat tippuu painovoiman takia reaktorisydämeen ja reaktio hidastuu välittömästi. Sauvojen päät on reaktorin ulkopuolella, joten niiden kiinnityksen korjaaminen onnistuu ”kuumana”.

Roottorin vaihto ei oikein onnistu hotswappaamalla. 😅 Toivottavasti se OL2 lopettaisi niiden roottoreiden pureskelun. Tuo oli toinen roottorin vaihto noin vuoden sisään. Niiden valmistamiseen kuulemma menee useampi vuosi, joten tuo on ikävän lyhyt vaihtoväli.

Edit3, 9.10.2024 klo 18.00: OL3:n reaktorin säätösauvan odottamattomaan putoamiseen liittyvän häiriön syy on selvitetty ja vika korjattu. Laitosyksikkö aloittaa tehonnoston ja palaa normaaliin tuotantoon.

Grafiitti on reaktiota kiihdyttävää ainetta, ja nykyreaktoreissa sitä ei enää käytetä, koska se on palavaa materiaalia. Säätösauvat voi olla esimerkiksi booria tai kadmiumia, koska ne pystyy absorboimaan suuren määrän neutroneja. Ala-asennossa ne tosiaan hidastavat reaktion kutakuinkin pysähdyksiin, ja estävät reaktion ”käsistä lähdön”.

Nordpooliin päivitettiin tieto tuosta n. 390MW tehotasosta. Tehon pitäisi nousta 1220MW:hen noin klo. 18 tänään, ja huomenna klo. 01 sen pitäisi palata normaaliin. Eli ei ilmeisesti ole mistään rikkoontumisesta kyse.

Onneksi Loviisa 1 starttaa ennakkotiedoista poiketen jo tänään klo. 18. Jos tuo OL3:n vikatila sattuu jatkumaan pidempään, niin ei ole ihan niin suuri puutos sähköntuotannossa.

My family’s always sliced the pineapple into disks then cut those into 4ths. You end up with a small part of core per piece.

This is the way. And depending on how hard the core happens to be, you can slice the pineapple into thinner discs or cut them into smaller pieces to make it easier to eat.

Alan Wake’s American Nightmare. Just finished the story mode. It’s Steam Deck Verified, so it runs and plays well, and it’s easy to play with a controller because it has a bit of auto-aim/aim correction.

I did enjoy it. Not a must play by any means, but it does add to the lore of the Alan Wake series. If you are a fan of that game series, I recommend playing this. And if you aren’t, you probably should play the other games in the series. 😉

Erikoista tässä on se, että tuo OL2:n roottori hajosi viime vuonna samoihin aikoihin. Toivottavasti nuo keksii syyn noille rikkoontumisille. Vähän huono tahti tuollain yks roottori per vuosi, jos niiden valmistamiseen menee useampi vuosi.

This is a Bluetooth issue, not Linux or Deck specific. When microphone is enabled on a headset, Bluetooth will switch to a different audio codec. That codec supports one output channel (microphone) and one input channel, so it will be mono audio. The sound quality is good enough for audio calls but not for anything else. The only thing you can do is to disable the microphone. Or, you can do what people have done for couple decades now: complain at Bluetooth Special Interest Group until they improve the standard.

Peerless Assassin isn’t much more expensive. I have it on my Ryzen 5700x, and it’s never audible. At idle my PC is pretty much silent and while playing games GPU and case fans hides any noise the PA makes.
