quoting
note1evg…mmhf

Due to my disability, I have a smart smoke detector at home. The unit needs replacing in about 12 months time. It would be a like-for-like replacement. Same product and just swap it out. The replacement cost is about $200.

There is no change in my requirements or supports here. It's simply purchasing a piece of assistive technology that requires replacement for safety reasons.

However, I've been told simply buying a replacement and swapping it is not permitted.

Instead, I need to approach an OT for a home-based assessment, who must then prepare a report recommending the smoke detector be replaced. This report is costed at about $400.

So the new smoke detector is no longer $200. It's now $600. All because of bureaucratic procedural bullshit.

THIS is why the NDIS costs so much. Stop putting the blame on participants relying on the NDIS for supports just to live their fucking lives.

I have a cheap "Wifi 6E" dongle from #AliExpress that advertised "driver free" operation. What that actually means is a USB mode switch between acting as an ~8MB flash drive and the real device.

I was curious and it turns out the "CD" was actually a real ISO once.

Coded an idea I've had for some time, not original but I haven't coded C# for years. Feels very comfortable. Don't use this, it hammers the shit out of servers as C# wants to use 4096 byte reads and I haven't worked out how to make it do anything better. https://gist.github.com/voltagex/b4c8c113c65b645a8207d3910344ab14

Is anyone reading this a C# expert? The only thing I can think of is keeping a bitmap (?) of retrieved segments and blocking on Read() until everything is downloaded - set my segment size to some fraction of the total filesize for faster downloads. I think the underlying mapped file can be used from multiple threads too...

I think it is such a shame that point to point wired networking over a gigabit is so rare. Thunderbolt and USB4 could be so good but they're only on newer and more expensive machines. It should be everywhere. I should be able to plug in a USB3 cable at 5 or 10 gigabit.
