That's a sunset for the books!We had a pretty cool looking storm a couple of years back with all sorts of amazing clouds. It was coming up to sunset, hence the intense red.

I generally agree with what you're saying except for the above. Many (really, most?) audio transports over IP don't use TCP because of latency issues, UDP ftw!...
Anyone with even just a cursory understanding of how TCP/IP works knows that that's all just a pile of marketing manure. Packages are packages, and if one gets lost along the way, the TCP/IP stack will take note and request for it to be resent.

Clearly, I learned programming on the wrong continent. Mulligan?I'd say that the mag's title says all you need to know:
"Computers, programmed for entertainment"
You're just jealous, it's not your fault that North Americans are such prudes…
(I did a quick check and yes, this is a real magazine cover that actually got released. Non-ironically. Small circulation, but still: What the actual frick! )
Crazy pricing for such a small amount. AG silver (Argentum), PB lead (plumbum), SN tin (stannum).And this. Been a while since I've seen a Radio Shack label on something new, but this has the same formulation as the Kester. Maybe even made by Kester. I generally prefer Cardas myself, but the Kester works quite nicely too.

I’m not aware of a single streaming or audio protocol that uses UDP.I generally agree with what you're saying except for the above. Many (really, most?) audio transports over IP don't use TCP because of latency issues, UDP ftw!
No retransmission of UDP packages [sic] (I think you meant packets).
I don't think the audiophile switches will make much difference there, a better streamer would.
Now, iirc, @earnmyturns found that upgrading the network switch did make a difference but not to one of the audiophile ones.
I'm most familiar with audio streaming over the internet as a whole (WebRTC, for example).I’m not aware of a single streaming or audio protocol that uses UDP.
If you know a few, please let me know. I’m curious.
RTP typically runs over User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
Last time I bought the Kester (in 2020) it was $4 for a .35 ounce tube. This Radio Shack branded stuff is a full ounce, so yeah more expensive, but with inflation probably not to an extreme. But it also makes the Cardas less expensive at ~$10.75/ounce, and when was the last time you saw anything with a Cardas label on it less expensive? .Crazy pricing for such a small amount.

Very true. I have several large rolls of silver content solder but it is larger gauge and being one lb and five lb rolls it has to be pricey now. As you know the smaller gauge is best for tube pins so I keep multiple sizes.Last time I bought the Kester (in 2020) it was $4 for a .35 ounce tube.

RTP and SRTP run at OSI layer 6 (session) usually over UDP. In the case of AirPlay, the overhead of TCP (layer 3 packets guaranteed to arrive in order, controlled by ACK and NACK responses) is acceptable because it only works on the local network (ie: it's not routable). Dante *is* routable but very sensitive to network latency; live performance should be 1ms or less.I'm most familiar with audio streaming over the internet as a whole (WebRTC, for example).
However, taking AirPlay as an example.
The control protocol is over TCP (HTTP, even!) using RTSP.
The actual audio data is sent via RTP which, wikipedia says,
Many, many systems use RTP this way. AES67, Dante, ...
