That's interesting. Maybe combined with this: http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~le... - it could provide what's needed. What I need in my case is good handling of TCP and UDP, anything else isn't relevant. Maybe I should try creating some sort of virtual network card that handles TCP and UDP, and hands the rest over to a real network card?

A couple of milliseconds extra for all traffic doesn't matter. The point is to avoid those short spikes in network latency that get me kicked from online servers..

blogologue writes: I've been playing Battlefield for some time now, and having a good ping there is important for a good gaming experience. Now I'm in the situation where I have mobile internet access from two telecom companies, and neither of those connections are stable enough to play games on, the odd ping in hundreds of milliseconds throws everything off. How can I setup a Windows client (my PC) and a Linux server (in a datacenter, connected to the internet) so that the same TCP and UDP traffic goes over both links, and the fastest packet on either link "wins" and the other is discarded?

Yeah, Ardour looks like a viable alternative. I'm getting to old to play around with a lot of different stuff, so I hope what I learn on one system is also possible on the next, even though the approach may be different.
I'm mostly running Windows now as I enjoy playing Battlefield, so maybe running a VirtualBox instance with Linux and Ardour is a viable option, not sure if there will be lagging in recording audio and so on though.

It was a different post and got edited a bit. :)
I prefer cross-platform, but if it's only available for Linux, that's OK too.
Submission + - Best cross-platform (or only Linux) audio software? 1
blogologue writes: I have played the guitar for some years now, and these days I think it's good therapy to be creative with music learning the piano and singing as well. So far I've been using Audacity as the tool to compose improvisations and demos, I haven't done much audio work before but it is already becoming too limited for my needs. Being a Linux-fanboi since the middle nineties I'm now looking for a good audio processing/editing/enhancing setup that can run on different platforms, the most important being Linux (yes, voting for Linux with my dollar). Are there any suggestions for Open Source or proprietary audio editing software that runs Linux?
Submission + - Suitable phone for a 4-year old?
blogologue writes: I have a kid that's turning 4-years old soon, and I'm not able to be with him as often as I want to. To remedy this, I'm looking into whether or not getting him a phone could be a good idea to keep in touch. Being able to have a video chat is important, and as it is rare that a 4-year old has a mobile phone, and because he's got other things to do, it would be good to be able to turn off for example games and so on during time in the kindergarden. So other kids don't go around asking their parents for a smartphone. The main reason for getting the phone is keeping in touch, and as a bonus it can function as a device for games and so on during allowed times. Are there any phones that are suitable for such use? I don't mind if it's Android, iOS or something else, as long as it can be used to make video calls to other Android/iOS phones, and if it features other applications such as games, have limited, pre-defined functionality during certain periods of the day.
