I said it loud too while watching it: “that shit’s over 100°C… and they’re going right in?”

This is the plot of The Village by M Night Shyamalan. Good movie.

I had set up this configuration around 2016 and found it a little clunky. I called it a SkyHole. It was great, and now we have the ability to install DNS profiles on most phones, or configure DNS profiles for PCs such that I use a (“free”) commercial provider and get ad blocking which takes care of 99% of the noise, and don’t have to fuss about with maintaining a dedicated device.

At this moment, for example, in 1984 (if it was 1984), Oceania was at war with Eurasia and in alliance with Eastasia. In no public or private utterance was it ever admitted that the three powers had at any time been grouped along different lines. Actually, as Winston well knew, it was only four years since Oceania had been at war with Eastasia and in alliance with Eurasia. But that was merely a piece of furtive knowledge which he happened to possess because his memory was not satisfactorily under control. Officially the change of partners had never happened. Oceania was at war with Eurasia: therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia. The enemy of the moment always represented absolute evil, and it followed that any past or future agreement with him was impossible.

Everything old is new again.

You were programmed to say that because I’m the only one that’s real.

Thank you! Can’t believe it’s been a year already. Wow

Two of them, one on each side.

Well, there’s the NASCAR driver Richard Trickle…

Note linking is what did it for me a few years back. It’s possible in OneNote, and clunky as hell.

I was sold the moment I read links can be wiki style in Obsidian.

They just need to be remagnetized.

LoFi Girl if you’re looking for real downtempo background noise. Lived on it when I was doing Uni.

If you’re the patient and organized type, you can download their entire library from their main site. The advantage here is that the livestream gets a little repetitive after a while.

Been listening to Soma.fm for a long time. Groove Salad and Indie Pop Rocks. Sometimes they play really strange stuff on one or the other, so that’s about when I will switch channels.

They’ll regex those bug reports so fast it won’t even matter.

There are plenty of “compromised antenna” options for you; there are loads of amateur operators who simply run their antenna around the largest room in their apartment and make long-range communications. It’s not optimal, but it works.

There’s a whole movement in amateur radio right now which relies on being light and portable. A 15 meter carbon fiber mast, some wire, 12v and 100W and you can work the world from a park.

Rule 1 of politics: Answer the question you want, not the question you’re asked.

Except Sacramento is the capital of California, Debbie gonna struggle

Focus follows mouse.

Takes some getting used to, but it’s really nice once you’re tracking it.
