Slightly better than living in your carMore Americans are living in RVs as housing costs rise
Moving into an RV may seem like a way to save money, but it can come with unexpected costs and trap families in a cycle of debt.Shannon Pettypiece (NBC News)

The missive, seen below, is just further indication that Trump’s whole presidency revolves around vendettas.Trump Mixes Up Direct Messaging for Social Media, Accidentally Sends Pam Bondi Public Note to Prosecute His Enemies - Showbiz411
Donald Trump obviously thought he was sending a private message to his stooge, Pam Bondi, Attorney General. Instead he posted it by mistake to his Truth Social. In the message, since deleted, Trump tells Pam to prosecute his enemies.Roger Friedman (Showbiz411)

Series inductance electrically lengthens an antenna and series capacitance electrically shortens an antenna.
Does that mean shunt inductance electrically shortens an antenna and shunt capacitance electrically lengthens an antenna? :3c

This was deep into an #Epstein thread (Remember him?)But it's deeper and broader, the true (not hyperbole) 'existential threat to... I'll say "live as we've known it", those of us fortunate enough to have many good memories from "peace, love, and rock & roll" to post-war life as usual, knowing we had #law and #Constitution, and crime bosses only become King in that Star Trek episode ... [worth re-seeing; it's so "gangster", no doubt a role model for Sir.]. It is: #Authoritarianism puro
Anyway, we have a mad receptacle of human #evil with the whole world kissing his ... ring .
A madman saying insane things but smiling when people say nice things and give gifts, so all is well. Right? (Have some more SOMA!) Be woke!
Meanwhile, our toddler "King" is globe-trotting for fun and profit while OUR "representatives", under #MAGAMike take the week off as our country is literally about to shut down in days....
Um, who is running the country? What? They've all been fired, canceled, or deported? Nobody home? Ask Sir? Hello, America! Where are you?
And #Colbert. And #Kimmel. #Truth with #humor. #FreeSpeech #FirstAmendment
That all means nothing once there IS no other voice of our Supreme Leadership. No #democracy - based Congressional or Legal Checks.
Which is why I think this matters, both the messaging and personal actions #WeThePeople can do - like respond to #ABC /#CBS / #Media
There's so much going on! So much #disinformation and #PTSD and assaults on our #rights and #freedoms
I think that's about all I can say about the state of our collective (?) nation. Can we survive it all?
I yield to George Orwell, who I came "here" to (re) introduce.
Stay safe, comfy, sane, and mindful.
Ended up getting longer legs (in aluminum because the hardware store was out of the copper tubing I like) and switching to a proper common mode choke winding pattern…and it just worked. It covers the entire 70cm band with SWR≤2! :O
I do have some more aluminum tubing that fits snugly inside these dipole legs, so I can make the legs telescoping to reduce the resonant frequency.

Texas man charged with making terroristic threats against Zohran Mamdani - Gothamist
Polls show Mamdani leading by double digits over Mayor Eric Adams, Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa, with less than two months until the election.During the final stretch of the race, a flier for a pro-Cuomo PAC surfaced showing a manipulated photo of Mamdani with his beard lengthened and darkened. Mamdani called the image “blatant Islamophobia.” A spokesperson for the PAC said the flier was never sent.

"At Traveler's Rest"
Ended up having to go to the restroom twice because of runs that I'd later determine to be from yogurt. No more "regular" yogurt for me!

You know how #Apple Silicon for their computers is named M plus a digit, and how the top-of-the-line variant is called Ultra?
Well, if you use K as the variable for the processor generation, the top-of-the-line variant becomes Apple MK Ultra. :P
