It's been some time since my last technical blog post, so I thought I'd write a new one on some of my efforts to integrate #QUIC, #RoQ and (partly) #MoQ in the Janus #WebRTC server. It's mostly experimental, but it could be a useful testbed for a future and deeper integration. Feedback welcome!

@nprofile…ynd9 I do like writing blogs, but only when I have something I'm excited to talk about: when that happens, I end up being WAY too verbose every single time 🤣 I'd argue that you don't need your website and blog to be a single thing, though: nothing wrong in having a website, that can point to a different blog instance that you may or may not have (that's what I did for my own personal spaces)

@nprofile…ynd9 my sister sent me pictures from Amerongen of her garden covered by snow, this morning, but she seemed happy about it 😂 I think she just lost her Italian passport rights

@nprofile…dfpj I gifted my 1-year old niece a tiny red wooden piano with 25 keys, that she had a lot of fun tinkering with these past few days ❤️

Dear Fediverse, I recently acquired a second-hand #guitar that I had "love at first sight" for as soon as I saw it online. It really is lovely to play, but I know very little about it, though, except that it's from a now defunct brand called #Dreambow. I can't find any other name or serial. Do you know what model it might be, and/or year? It definitely is a single cut, but it's not a Les Paul replica as you can see in the picture. Please help me boost this until it reaches someone who knows 😅

@nprofile…dcm7 for long flights, I personally prefer a window seat on the left side (like the one you highlighted). I have trouble sleeping on planes, and that's the closest you can get to laying down against something. I rarely move during flights so I don't care mind the window seat.
For shorter flights it's the other way around: aisle seat in the front, as I can't wait to get out of there 😁

I have the pictures with him (and the limoncello he drank) on an external drive somewhere, I should find them!

@nprofile…dfpj @nprofile…agq6 this is probably where I should boast that I have my PS3 copy signed by Tim Schafer himself, when I visited Double Fine and gifted him limoncello 😅

@nprofile…dfpj @nprofile…agq6 yep, that's what intrigues me the most, especially considering I really have a lot of games I bought on a sale and could never play because I don't have a gaming PC. Or all the games I played elsewhere but can't anymore, but could with a Steam Machine (I'm looking at you, Brütal Legend! ❤️ )

@nprofile…agq6 @nprofile…dfpj yeah, I've seen some websites try and do that. Hopefully it won't be too expensive... as a lazy player that's gotten used to play stuff on the TV while slouching on the couch it would be an amazing opportunity to give new life to the ton of games I bought on Steam and never played, but I'm not going to let them bleed me dry to get it 😁 I paid way too much for the PS5 already...

@nprofile…dfpj @nprofile…agq6 how much will it cost then? To be honest I'm not going to watch 2h of interview just for that answer 😁

Hey all,
just a reminder that the CfP for #FOSDEM presentations officially ends on the 1st of December, and that applies to our Music Production devroom too. If you have cool stuff to talk about (and I know you do!) please do consider submitting!
https://music.lminiero.it/fosdem/
Please boost for reach! No idea if I'm using enough hashtags to reach everyone, but feel free to add more if you can think of others 😁

@nprofile…dcm7 in situations like this, I always lean towards prudence, so the 8am train. Yes, you may be stuck in your hotel room for a while, but isn't it better than having to run/rush, travel sweaty/flustered, and possibly miss the time you have to get there entirely?

@nprofile…dcm7 wow, I thought that homes in my area were absurdly priced because of how touristic it is, but apparently in the NL they're pretty much there too! For square footage they even seem a bit more expensive than here

@nprofile…cee8 if you weren't that far up north I would have sworn you were on the Circumvesuviana, the train we have here that connects Sorrento and Naples and that has been voted, more than once, like the worse train line Italy for many years in a row 😁 Departing and not knowing when/if you'd arrive was pretty common

Can't wait to get back home to start reading the long awaited book by my friend David Duffett! I've been looking forward to this book since the first time he teased about it in presentations he made in the past, all of which had a ton of great content I myself borrowed from for my own talks.
I was lucky to be able to get a copy from the hands of the man himself, but you can buy the book online at the link below. Do yourself a favour and grab a copy ASAP!

@nprofile…7s4z I learnt the meaning of that acronym: using the TIL acronym to say I learnt a new acronym was a bit of a silly (and probably too obscure) pun 🙂

@nprofile…7s4z PEBKAC = Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair (to let people know you were the cause of whatever problem was happening)
Something new I learnt just a few minutes ago!

Oh, with everything that's happened at Bandcamp in the past few months, I didn't know this was still a thing... It's #BandCampFriday ! Which means that every purchase you do goes 100% to the artists, no commission.
And with the Holidays coming, if you're feeling generous or need to get on Santa's good list, why not make ME a present? 😁 Or just listen to some of my music and let me know what you think of it, I'm happy either way!
