Cool! This seems like an good write up on it

https://atoonk.medium.com/tcp-bbr-exploring-tcp-congestion-control-84c9c11dc3a9

Bottleneck Bandwidth and Round-trip propagation time (BBR) is a TCP congestion control algorithm developed at Google in 2016. Up until recently, the Internet has primarily used loss-based congestion control, relying only on indications of lost packets as the signal to slow down the sending rate. This worked decently well, but the networks have changed. We have much more bandwidth than ever before; The Internet is generally more reliable now, and we see new things such as bufferbloat that impact latency. BBR tackles this with a ground-up rewrite of congestion control, and it uses latency, instead of lost packets as a primary factor to determine the sending rate.

Internally in the UK, the BBC brought in quota to hire more right wing comedians after it was found they aren't funny

This was by Tim Davie the director general, a very generous Tory donor

The BBC has been fully captured and the stuff that comes out of it is as biased as any of the right wing media outlets (which is pretty all major outlets now), but done in a plummy(1) way that seems to get past a lot of peoples bullshit detention

Yep, or "IDF causes muderous mayhem in unprovoked slaughter of more than 100 innocent civilians waiting for humanitarian aid." Even a bit of alliteration, news outlets love that.

I've been trying to think of how to do a meme about wingnuts loving plane memes at the moment, but I'm only good at stealing templates... 100% this is ham fisted right wing astroturfing.

Not sure doubt is the right word here, they knew.

Yes, it's all individuals fault... Nothing to do with lack of regulation via political corruption...
