What if time travel is not just a sci-fi fantasy, but can also be a cognitive leap?

I think true spiritual practice is actually a spiritual folding of time and space: it allows us to gain insight in our youth into those true meanings of life that would otherwise require the baptism of time to understand.

In other words, spiritual practice is actually a cognitive time travel.

Last week, the Telecom technician came to my door again, saying they suspected I had PCDN at home. The basis for suspicion was a large amount of upstream and downstream traffic for 215 consecutive hours (actually, I downloaded very little during this period, less than 1T of downloads in 215 hours, and upload was not even 300G~). I was speechless. My Transmission upload limit is already set to 1024 KB/s, what else do they want me to do?

Just looking at the recent online cases of users being speed-limited or disconnected by operators under the guise of PCDN, it feels like major operators are using PCDN as a catch-all excuse to crack down heavily on users with large upload volumes (this ”large” is relative to average home users; you know, an average home user's upload might not even exceed 1G a day~) so I also felt the danger: after all, I am an old user using a public IP package at a very low price, which makes me a thorn in Telecom's side. If they catch an opportunity to claim I violated the rules and take back my public IP, it would be a huge loss (although I don't really need a public IP right now, but not taking advantage of a good deal is just foolish).

After thinking it over, and combined with the experience of being disconnected by Telecom for 3 days last year, I already had a sense of crisis. So I simply got another Mobile gigabit broadband line, claiming 1000 Mbps downstream and 100 Mbps upstream.

Believe it or not, there really is nearly 130 Mbps upstream:

After more than a week of tinkering, I completed the traffic splitting for the intranet terminals. Terminals related to the home data center go through Telecom, while other applications (including PT downloading) go through Mobile. The Mobile egress is set as my home's default egress, while the Telecom and Mobile egresses serve as backup lines for each other. Now, except for power outages, I no longer worry about access issues for some applications due to broadband problems. Although it was a forced addition of Mobile broadband, I suddenly feel that dual broadband indeed brings a greater sense of security. At the same time, it can be considered as fulfilling my long-held wish for dual broadband~~~.

It wasn't easy. In the Google search results for the term ”home data center”, ”Baidu Baike” and ”Wikipedia”, which had long suppressed me, were finally overtaken by me once. Although this moment will certainly be brief, it is still worth posting a status update about:
