Maybe a knee jerk reaction, but why cannot the low latency users skip the queue, or even throw out a existing job and reschedule it for later - the bulk users does not care, right? The problem reminds me how we made a lousy internet connect

Played a bit around with this a few years back. Made an endless chain of CNAMEs to see how resolvers would handle it. Turned that nothing (bad) happened as the resolvers gave up after a while

I have been wanting to try a 4< digit pin, but I expect payment terminals to go bonkers because they don’t accept it. Have any of you a card pin longer than 4?

I fuzzed the direwolf aprs software using AFL some years back, but nothing interesting showed up. I too found RCE over HAM intriguing. Good work!
