Disappointing that my most expensive radio has the fewest programming/firmware update options. And to my ears, the 'superheterodyne' stuff doesn't sound any better than a $16 Baofeng. Something to keep in mind if you're looking at buying a Wouxun brand radio that isn't CHIRP-compatible.

Pentagon loading up on Dominos pizza yet or did that one get debunked? View quoted note →

I just can't get over this. One of the first 'grown-up' movies I ever watched depicted Bill Murray driving a top secret, rocket-launching RV deep into Czechoslovakia on a rescue mission. The difference 44 years makes. View quoted note →

So it just displays a QR to redeem the sats? No need to KYC yourself to some exchange you've never heard of and squint yourself blind reading a ToS agreement? CoinStar company and USGOV, kindly GFY 🤬 View quoted note →

I'd gladly pay $1 to send an email if I got paid 10 cents every time I received an email.

Would it be possible for an ISP to block access to Primal even if you were using a VPN?

Tell us you view US statehood as a tool of federal occupation without telling us. Makes sense now why they don't offer this 'premium level' of support to Israel. I mean after all, they didn't let a pesky ocean get in the way of bestowing the privilege on Hawaii. View quoted note →

I don't know what to think about the moon landing. If it did happen that long ago, it seems like we should be a lot further along technologically (assuming space exploration R&D money wasn't being embezzled). Also, maybe technology has advanced exponentially but they're keeping some of it hidden from the tax cattle who helped pay for it. One scenario I could absolutely see happening is recording equipment snafus made it a visual nothingburger so they enlisted Hollywood to create dramatized footage for the plebs. All I know is the number of vials of "moon dust" I've seen for sale makes me wonder whether they went there in a rocket or a dump truck lol View quoted note →

"The ARRL - the largest amateur radio club in the country has reached out to the GMRS community to get support for the "Amateur Radio Emergency Preparedness Act" - a new law proposed by the ARRL that would make it illegal for HOAs prevent homeowners from putting up two-way radio (ham radio OR GMRS) antennas on their roof. This grassroots campaign launched by the ARRL in September of 2025 needs public support to pass The House and Senate to become law."

Sometimes you just can't help but be awe-struck by the fact that they conned 8 billion sonsabitches into trading their labor for printed pieces of paper.

Right now there are companies spending R&D money trying to develop 'stealth maxipad wrapper' technology. Meanwhile this men's room TP dispenser sounds like Uncle Clem's damn turkey call 🤣

Bitcoin went in for the Uptober pin but ref noticed J-Pow's foot on the bottom rope. Run-in by bankster buddies. Bitcoin wins by disqualification but Fedcoin retains the title. Get your tickets for the rematch at Starrcade on Thanksgiving!

I think it was @WantClue who recently did a video warning Bitaxe users to make sure their power supply isn't being asked to deliver a constant long duration output of more than 80% of rated maximum. Anyone know if this is a universal recommendation, specifically does it also apply to mining heaters like the Canaan Avalon brand? Looks like my Nano uses about 95% of its 140W when set to High and 66% on Medium.

Now call Stella Assange for jury duty and watch that pornstache jump clean off his face like Cousin It 🤣 View quoted note →
