  • Should have used a Texas ID, Mr. Sample.

  • The biggest thing I learned from living in Italy for two years and then marrying a Korean woman a few years after that is that Americans have fucked up views on sexuality and nudity. I came from a pretty liberal secular hippie type family and I was surprised to find I had some residual cultural hang ups just from growing up in the US.

  • It’s a robot you hook up to your PC or phone and it jerks you off

  • The drugs: weed vapesThe computer/human interface: VR goggles and a stroker

  • “Military ammunition” sounds scary until you realize it’s only made to be acceptable for military purposes, and the truly excellent grade ammunition is made for civilians.

  • I’ve had about 275 BTC pass through my wallets throughout the years. I actually used it. My friend who was “too stupid” to use it still has 2 of them from the $10 BTC era.

    Never saw it as an investment, just something to help me get acid in the mail.

  • I recently re-entered the dating pool for the first time in a decade and it’s incredible how much attention I get from just appearing clean, having my shit together, and not posting a picture with me holding a fish. Never got so much attention from women before in my life. Had a date in like one week.

    The bar is very, very low. I am sorry, ladies out there.

  • Radio is the OG fediverse and I want to promote decentralization and self-sufficiency. Amateur radio is a lot easier and more accessible than you might think.

  • No worries! It’s a cool hobby. Getting licensed was a bucket list item, as nerdy as that sounds. Still gotta learn Morse code but I hope to one of these days. Seeing some old heads tapping away at a local HAM event was pretty damn cool.

  • I did - I’ve got my general license. Missed extra by 2 questions despite not studying for it whatsoever.

  • Honestly I’ve been doing this for like 2 years now and I’ve not really keyed up and transmitted in the amateur radio sense, just GMRS walkie talkie stuff with the homies. Still, it’s super cool being able to listen. Picking up satcom stuff is just neat. I also take it to the airport and listen to the pilots talk with tower/ground crew.

    One of these days I’ll transmit for real, but I have no problem following the “LURK MOAR” guideline as applied to amateur radio as I learn the culture.

  • You can buy a cheap Chinese HT like a Quansheng UV-K6 for like $40. These have open firmware and there’s a bunch of custom options radio nerds have whipped up. Get the USB programming cable even if you’re not doing custom FW, makes programming frequencies and tweaking options much easier. You’ll also need a license and in the US, HamStudy.org has the exact questions from the test. There’s a ton of YouTube channels you can watch and books you can read for general purpose radio knowledge. Then it’s just a matter of getting a proper antenna and pointing it in the right place at the right time; there’s free resources online, paid apps, all that is out there and it’s just a matter of wanting to learn it. The actual hardware you need to get started is really cheap these days.

  • You’d be better served learning how to do it yourself. It’s not hard and it’s a pretty cool skill to have (amateur radio).

  • They wish they were in an antenna and going out as radio waves, but instead they’re in a dummy load and not going anywhere. 50ohm is a common antenna impedance.

  • Locking your phone and Lockdown Mode are drastically different things.
