@swradiogram.bsky.social mediocre reception of WINB this evening here in Napa, CA area (CM88) - better than listening to a voice program though. Icom IC-7300, 40m dipole. Thank you @kaedotcom.bsky.social

Took this photo (35mm Kodak Tri-X) last summer in Isleton, CA. Amused to see this building now showing-up in FB ads, it's for sale, what a bargain at $150k! Except it needs to be rebuilt, including the foundation :-)

Join me, Luke
Against my own instincts I am turning into a pretty unashamed credentialist. We've become so enamored of the Hollywood narrative where the scrappy outsider proves all the established experts wrong that we lose sight of how rare it is in reality, and how HUGELY damaging it is to treat as probable.
I'm kinda not a fan of credentialism
"Non-scientists" can have insight
And actual scientists can be grifters
So the substance is what matters
But how can you judge substance unless you're an expert lol
But also people just cherry pick their fave experts all the time too
No good solution really

If you have a shortwave-capable receiver, give this a try. Heck, if you don't, find a KiwiSDR (google it) and you've got a shortwave-capable receiver.

In any case, @swradiogram.bsky.social is totally worth following and participating in a global radio experiment.

Oh, the cringe! The delightful, delectable cringe! From the single best Star Trek (TOS) episode, one of the best of the entire franchise.

We live a few miles from several duck clubs (managed wetlands with in-season duck hunting) and it is duck season. Just heard the first shots of the morning at 622a, a little later than expected - normally they start exactly 30 minutes before sunrise :-)

Something for the #hamradio folks. Started with an STM32F446RE Nucleo, built an analog interface board (display unused here) and wrote the code for a very good 1200-baud #packetradio KISS modem. Built back in 2017-18, resurrected, maybe going to do eye diagram on the display #nerdfun

Trump's behavior is perfectly explicable if you think of him as a narcissist who is basically stuck at a child's level of development, who fears powerful people and is a walking bundle of insecurities.
You don't know, no one knows, outside of Putin and Trump, but Trump's behaviour is largely inexplicable for a sane person.

Nothing says I did nothing wrong like a man with pardon power sending his personal lawyer to offer limited immunity to a convicted sex trafficker with a reputation for lying to see if she can clear things up

People should acquaint themselves with what Ghislaine Maxwell did. She’s not a victim or an enabler. She is a convicted child sex trafficker.

How Mr. Bungle fans look at you when they show you a song that's just slap bass, fart noises, and a dude singing about pissing himself on the side of a highway (it's a metaphor for suicide)

Our precocious 5-yo granddaughter spent a few nights here this week. This is her breakfast today; she doesn't enjoy cooked fish but properly-cured sashimi is perfect any meal. (She didn't want the lemon slice but I insisted for visual appeal)
