Re: VA - Top 1000 Oldies Of All Time
Sacha Weakland
The nucleus of this playlist started when I attempted to recreate the WCBS Top 500 Oldies of all-time based on airplay and New York City charts. As I complied my list and listened to the music I came to the realization that I could do better. I just didn't agree with or even remember some of the songs included on the WCBS list. So, here's my top 500 oldies of all time based on WCBS Top 500 Oldies playlist. As mentioned in the book High Fidelity, there is a certain art to making a great mix tape or CD. What songs you choose, and how you choose them, will largely affect how much your efforts will be appreciated. I believe the same can be said for the playlist - the modern-day mix tape. For this playlist I followed these rules.
recently I updated my windows 10 to windows 11. after that my download speed is suddenly decreased my actual internet speed is 25mbps when I check on the speed test also its showing 25mbps but while downloading on chrome or on Microsoft edge it'll be decreased to around 200kbps and even youtube is also the same. I tried resetting the network adapter. please give me some solution.
I'm not convinced the heads at Microsoft (and Adobe, Creative Cloud my friends...) actually test their stuff in normal working conditions outside a Powerpoint pitch-perfect presentation involving sweat, tears and joy.
After the update, my somewhat slow net has dropped to the level of domains not reachable etc. No server response basically. DNS updated, have removed McAffee, have removed some App's and limited App data usage... Sligtly better, but far from professionally usable. I'll look up if there's the "Killer" wifi service running somewhere...
I've noticed my Android phone still picks up DNSs and stuff even when the PC doesn't, so I have a suspicion it's not me, it's not the rooter, it is the mess of bad packets etc.
I've been facing this issue on ethernet connection since last update ( 2 or 3 months ago)
Nothing that I did fix the issue. Even tried all workarrounds posted in this thread. W11 is so unstable, actually I uninstalled a driver for audio, since the 3.5mm front connector wasn't working properly.
@philb20 Not so sure about that. After dealing with this issue for months and having to install/reinstall drivers repeatedly, it seems one of the later updates (windows or driver; not sure which) fixed the issue. It's been months now since I've seen the slow-down. Wish I could provide more guidance as to what fixed the issue, but it seems to have been resolved.
One thing to note though - I've been using an app called Driver Easy for my driver updates. It seems to pick up driver updates long before Windows update or any of the other update programs do. Maybe try it and see if the drivers it selects fixes the issue.
TCP Optimizer didnt improve windows 11 ethernet speed.
Its the same hardware just a dual boot system , so not hardware, not cable, not router its all identical between Win 10 and 11, I have latest RealTek drivers for win11
But windows 11 ethernet runs 5x slower than on same system for windows 10
@philb20 i tried all methods written here , i was about to give up then suddenly i saw drivereasy software name then i though whynot give it a try as last attempt cause in past use to have win10 i didn't trusted windows updates for graphic driver as it gave always outdated driver so i installed iobits driver booster software and it was good
driver easy listing for ethernet driver
before speedtest result :
after installed drivereasy and updating drivers (restarting pc) speedtest result :
edit : it worked only for a day and now i'm on same 18-20 mbps as before
@D323XIts not a Killer network Adapter and I have gone through the apps and services running to look for any suspicious "Other" network service , app or software.
It just appears Windows 11 throttles or reduces available bandwidth.
Anytime i update or re-install network drivers i use the nice TCP OPTIMIZER... and works very well. Changed all values to 1000/1000 and in the drivers advanced options inside device management i disabled or enabled various values... now works perfect.
For example: Flux control, Green Ethernet, Large send offload... all this disabled, exist others values have an impact on latency or speed for example.
I just upgraded to 1Gbps fiber from Starlink, and after doing speed tests on my main computer, I wasn't getting the speeds my router and laptop (Win 11) were getting. I even went as far as finally setting up the 2.5G network card and switch on my network. Turns out both of the Intel network cards, 1G and 2.5G, had bad Windows-supplied drivers.
The Intel Driver & Support Assistant did not see that the network drivers were outdated, but searching the Network Chip, Intel does have an Ethernet Adapter Complete Driver package at -ethernet-adapter-complete-driver-pack.h... After unzipping the file run Autorun.exe and Click Install Drivers, Yes to UAC, and Ok to the update. This took me from version 1.1.3.28 to 2.1.1.7. Now my speed tests are as expected with ethernet overhead.
Over ancient cobblestones, through alleyways and past half-timbered houses from six centuries, a city walk leads through the former royal palatinate and first capital of the East Franconian Empire. Today, the 10th-century collegiate church of St. Servatii in particular is a reminder of the glorious past of the city in the Harz Mountains, which was the political center of German kings and emperors for centuries.
Buried in the collegiate church are Henry I, the first German king to unite the German duchies, and his wife Mathilde, who founded the important women's monastery. And something else can be seen in the monumental Romanesque building: The famous cathedral treasure, which fascinates with goldsmith's work, fine ivory carvings and valuable manuscripts from the Middle Ages. Together with its old town and the Renaissance castle from the 16th century, Quedlinburg has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Towers, gables, gates, winding alleys and an ensemble of colorful half-timbered houses - this small Bavarian town is regarded throughout the world as a landmark of German (medieval) romanticism. Its most famous sight is the Plnlein, which translates as the "square by the fountain." What is actually meant, however, is a quaint half-timbered house with a pointed roof that juts crookedly into the old town alley. Right next to it is the Kobolzell Gate from 1360 and the Sieber Tower, which leads into the old hospital quarter.
If you don't want to miss any detail of the historical synthesis of the arts, you are well advised to take a guided tour of the city. The starting point is the market square, which is dominated by the massive Renaissance town hall. The oldest pictorial representation of Rothenburg's marketplace can then be seen in St. Jacob's Church from the 14th century. The church, which as the name suggests is located on the Way of St. James to Santiago de Compostela, houses another treasure: the valuable Altar of the Holy Blood by Tilman Riemenschneider, the famous Renaissance sculptor.
It can't be proven quite so precisely. But according to everything that archaeologists and historians have discovered, Trier is the oldest city in Germany. The oldest surviving buildings date back to Roman settlement in ancient times. At that time - the 4th century - the city on the Moselle experienced a real heyday as an imperial substitute residence for Rome and a bulwark against the Germanic tribes. Today, an amphitheater where gladiator fights used to be held, the imperial baths with underground passages and an impressively large throne room - the Basilica of Constantine - bear witness to Trier's rich past. And then, of course, there's the Porta Nigra, once a proud symbol of Roman emperors' monopoly on power, now the city's landmark. In 170 AD, the Romans began building the city gate, which has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Heidelberg dates back to the 12th century. And since the city on the Neckar has survived the wars of the last centuries almost unscathed, one quickly feels transported back to times long past. To be precise, to the 17th century, when the baroque cityscape of Heidelberg that is still preserved today was created. Even further back is the founding of the university, which opened in 1386, making it the oldest university in Germany. Where can you experience the student flair particularly well today? For example, on the Neckar meadow at the foot of the Heiligenberg. You can get there via the historic Old Bridge, which spans the Neckar in several arches. From the Neckar meadow, you also have a great view of the castle that rises above the old town on the other bank on the northern slope of the Knigstuhl. The festivities at the castle, which once rivaled imperial residences in Vienna and Prague and hosted Frederick II, Elizabeth Stuart and other high-ranking monarchs, are said to have been frenetic. Those who wish to walk to Heidelberg Castle have the choice between the Burgweg and the stairs Kurzer Buckel. Or would you prefer to float to the top on the mountain railroad?
It's off to a good start! Lbeck, the Hanseatic city on the Baltic Sea, welcomes its visitors as they walk in with its proudest landmark: the striking Holsten Gate with its red brick walls and twin towers. And behind it? Lbeck exudes the typical charm of a northern port city: winding alleys and streets lead into the heart of the Hanseatic city and allow city strollers to stumble upon the most beautiful sights as if by chance. There is the Holy Spirit Hospital with its Gothic frescoes. Since the Middle Ages, the shape of the monumental building has hardly changed; as one of the oldest social institutions in Europe, it embodies Lbeck's history as a rich Hanseatic city. On the market square, the town hall from 1225 stands out with its ornate facades. Hidden behind red walls are also the worth seeing gardens and courtyards of the monasteries and convents. Since the medieval town layout and the historic building fabric have been preserved to this day, UNESCO has declared the entire medieval old town center a World Heritage Site. The seven towers of the Gothic brick churches, which characterize the cityscape in their unmistakable way, are also part of it.
