Yes, the Americans are now running death camps.

Medical care in ICE custody now denied as policy.

We'll see these death camps here soon. Somewhere the locations are being chosen.

Fascists do not put on the brakes or see reason. They can't now. They're all war criminals and the counts are added to daily.

They can only shut up the non-fascists, by fear, by incarceration or by death.

And they have to expand or die which guarantees they will indeed come for us here.

What's advised in case you find you've been compromised? Donate the phone to some charity?








This is pretty cool. The single loading coil in the middle doubles as an impedance matching autotransformer. 👀

Shrinking the Dipole: Building the Shorty Forty Antenna for 40M Band — VU3DXR

The 40-meter band (7 MHz) is a cornerstone of High-Frequency (HF) amateur radio, but a full-sized half-wave dipole for this band is about 66 feet (20 meters) long. For hams with limited space, this can be a serious challenge!. Enter the “Shorty Forty”—a classic solution that uses loading coils to achieve excellent performance in a much more compact footprint.

"Old Puyallup River Bridge"


This bridge originally carried SR-167 across the Puyallup River. As it was rather narrow and in poor condition, it was in need of replacement. To do so, WSDOT simply moved the old bridge out of the way while building the new one.

If non-Tesla owners are funding Tesla by using their chargers, doesn't that mean that electric cars in general fund fascism? :3c

@jeff @tk Superchargers are probably the healthiest and highest-growth component of Tesla as a company now, even more than their cars. When you use Superchargers, you give money to Tesla. https://electrek.co/2025/07/23/superchargers-are-the-only-part-of-teslas-business-seeing-growth-right-now/



Despite all of the advancements in mouse-driven GUIs over the decades, I'd rather keep my hands at the keyboard. :P


Really happy about seeing so many more motorcycles out in Winter this year than in past years. :3 #Seattle









How hard would it be to upgrade the battery in a T-Deck+? #MeshCore #Meshtastic

magnificent! A battery swap is just plug and play on the original t-deck; on the plus, expect the same or *possibly* leads to solder.
Then you just need to close it up again with a case that fits.





Chatted with some other hams on #MeshCore and we all hopped on 2m FT8, which is usually dead silent around here. :P #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

Maybe there are some strict rules for the construction project or maybe they just want to keep tabs on things. I have seen those only once or twice, in big cities. They never seem to be permanent, because after a while they disappear again. But I am half a globe away, so...


There are few things more cyberpunk than mesh and distributed networks. 🤔
