  • Most devices will give you the latest frame on a read essentially. VLC accepts a tcp:// address and interpreted it correctly somehow. The raw bandwidth on the potato 320x240 or whatever was peanuts, but even if you didn’t get all the frames per second the device will discard old frames and you got the latest frame anyway. So pretty cool indeed. Doesn’t really multicast though. For that I suppose you could netcat to local multicast address and then connected to that same address, but I’ve never tried it. VLC may not receive the headers that a read may open with would be my suspicion













  • Arguably the deficit and level of debt doesn’t matter either. After all, both have been higher in times gone by as a gdp ratio. So this is then a question of how much debt will a government be willing/allowed to take on?

    Due to money not being backed by anything physical, debt itself is used as an inflationary measure in order to then lead interest rates, and is the biggest market leaver a government has. Adding more money (debt) to a relatively inelastic economy means that goods will cost more as market forces say there is more money for the same stuff. In the case of tax breaks, the theory goes that these companies will invest. But what is actually happening is Trumps mates are doing lay-offs and pocketing more and more profit.

    So, Trump is showing his desire to make things cost more (something that negatively affects the bottom of the economy far more than the top) and by spending more on tax breaks instead of investment; he is literally stealing from the poor to give to the rich. And that’s easily verifiable by asking: who ultimately owns the government’s debt, and who is getting richer?

    That’s right suckers, Trump is taking his whole voter base for a ride
