1936 #Poland The speaking clock at the Main Post Office in Kraków, on the corner of Potocki and Wielopole Streets.A speaking clock is a telephone service that provides the exact current time when you call a designated number.It was once an essential tool before digital clocks and smartphones became common.The recorded voice—often of a radio announcer—would announce the time precisely, synchronized with official standards.Today, most speaking clocks are historical curiosities, but some still operate as reminders of early telecommunication technology.#telephony #history #ntp #ntps #time #timeseries #phones #telecomunication #krakow #europe Licence: Public DomainSygnatura: 3/1/0/8/5329Data/Okres powstania: 1936/07

@paul_ipv6 Working on finally finishing up a paper related to this, but suffice to say I think Quad9 is taking a very reasonable position here.There continues to be interesting DNSSEC-related outages, even "impactful" ones, but I think one could argue NTA getting it wrong is at least as risky as an outage. Hmm.. maybe something for future work .

At SCALE 23x, we had the opportunity to speak with Harlan Stenn, President and Board Chair of the Network Time Foundation.Harlan shared how he began using FreeBSD in the early days, testing it alongside other systems, and ultimately chose to run it on all his machines because it was stable, reliable, and simply worked.It’s always powerful to hear from long-time contributors who have seen FreeBSD evolve over decades and still trust it today.#FreeBSD #SCALE23x #OpenSource #NTP #Community
