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.

This is a good article on the topic I came across today: https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/cbc-pronunciation-kyiv-ukraine...

Boils down to that the Ukrainian vs Russian pronunciation is now political...

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.

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)
