  And go a tbsp every hour or so. I’ve seen so many videos of people drinking shots or larger of that stuff and stating they inhabited the bathroom all night.

  Proper noun, plural is always an ending s, ownership always apostrophe s.

  One of the coolest things in my opinion about radio is the ability to skip off the upper atmosphere and bounce a signal back down halfway across the globe. You can also bounce a signal off the moon.

  I never could really get ahold of anyone to talk to, most Elmers in my area died. So I just use the license as an emergency line. Talked a few times on my HT, but most HAMs in my area use their cell phones nowadays.

  The four repeaters in my area are run by one club. They do the Field Day exercise every year and from what I remember they run them around 150w per repeater. A small jenny could run those fuckers on 15gal a day fairly easily. In a huge emergency, though, you can relay morse on just 5w through 5 or less relaying techs to most of the world without repeaters at all. (1 if you’re lucky, but I’m being fair to real life interference).

  You legally need a license for HAM, but there’s nothing really preventing anyone from configuring a radio to licensed frequencies. As for HAMs reporting you, if it’s an emergency the FCC rarely fines anyone if it’s for medical or safety concerns, were any amateurs to even report you. The whole reason for the Tech license for example is just to know laws and rules for operation. It’s damn easy, too. License exam was $25 a few years back, 8 year term. All the questions and answers are avilable online, they just pull (35? I think) from the pool of 400. Most is pretty basic rules of common sense and civility, a few laws. Most tech questions are just converting frequencies and basic math. They don’t require morse anymore (Thank god, or I’d never pass). And if you pass the Tech, you can go right back in for free to try the next exam level. I never use mine, but I do have an HT I keep charged in case of emergencies.

  Eh, the printers should be swapped for laserjet to save money and ears. I don’t even know where one could buy paper for dot matrix printers either.

  Are we considering the ending the last episodes or the movies? Cause if the former it’s terrible, if the latter it’s “I have no words for how the hell this crazy shit was approved for production”

  Yeah secure boot really fucked with me for like an hour. Then bitlocker stalled me for days. Windows marks it’s territory with asparagus piss and vinegar. Disable fastboot and secure boot, remove bitlocker.

  Lemme guess, Secure Boot prevented installation?

  Waymo didn’t switch to Sodium? I would have thought they’d use the newer batteries to save money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A San Francisco power outage left Waymo's self-driving cars stranded at intersections⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah the few times I’ve seen them set like that everyone is stopped, and just kinda waving people to go. I think it’s to do with power outage, and tye place I’ve seen it twice is a 4x3 lane intersection.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A San Francisco power outage left Waymo's self-driving cars stranded at intersections⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I admit I scratch my head at 4 way intersections with blinking yellows on all 4 though. Usually the bigger road gets the yellows for caution, the adjacent lanes have to yield.

  Police and firefighters would love to have an excuse to go demolition derby on these things I bet.

  Remember ever company that cuts consumer production over private ai production. When the bubble pops stick with the companies that remembered consumers are the longterm profit. For the rest, let their shareholders eat them alive as they sell every share from beneath them.

  I figure so many of them are so old the drug test would come out inconclusive due to the drug cocktails they probably take daily. Just think of all the shit people have to take in retirement homes then add in a factor of free healthcare and access to top tier doctors who can prescribe without concern over ethics.

  Well yeah, one has to think to feel empathy and compassion. It’s easy to hate, place blame and ignore responsibility. I am all for peace and equal treatment, but those who refuse tolerability must be stopped.

  I’d make a pull out pantry but also consider wiring in a battery power station inside to power the fridge during power outages.

  Xumo I’m guessing? Look for another streaming device. Anything with 4gb ram should carry you a loooong way. I just looked up the cheap 4k stream devices at Walmart, they support Jellyfin as well. In the interest of storage space over quality, most of my vids are 1080p, and they rarely stutter with pure software decoding.

  I went for cheap, and syored away. The battery sits at the bottom of the stilt legged coup with a screwed on door to keep water and chickens out. Panel just sits on the roof. I set this all up about 2mo before wyzecam with batteries were announced. Been running ever since. This time of year this area is always cloud covered, and limited daylight. The panel is an older one, not quite as efficient as the one that runs my daytime radiator fans in the hoopouse (no battery, just a 10in and 8in radiator fan that sound like jet engines on full sunny days. I tried the camp ceiling fans but they kept burning out). Fans are mostly to help prevent mold in that one, and keep heat even during summer.
