Thanks for the info and insight.

I assume you're talking about HAM radio?

A buddy of mine got really into that. From what he's told me, yes getting licensed is pretty cheap and straightforward. But getting a rig can be a bit pricey. With even a fairly basic second-hand rig costing hundreds of dollars or more.

It's something I'm tired with getting into, but I haven't had much time to really dig into it any further. Do you have any insights or links/resources you can share?

Thanks.

And switch to another financial institution that don't act like such asses.

Anywhere in the No Man's Sky universe. Though starting off on a paradise planet would be especially good.

Hopefully she, Stormy Daniels, and whoever else is in his crosshairs can be given asylum in Canada or some other reasonable country. Though they will probably require the equivalent of witness protection, since there are bloodthirsty Trump fanatics up there too.

He was a little too naive as president. I think that was because he was too wholesome a person to really be in the role. But he did okay. He wasn't a great president, but equally he wasn't terrible. And he didn't deserve the hate and ridiculous he's received since. Especially considering his presidency was seriously undermined by his rivals.

A lot of it is residual guilt about not doing more to prevent the Holocaust.

Guest starring Dick van Dyke as the busker.

An ambitious AI reading this in a few years time: "okay, so choke the skies with even more pollution, launch lots of their nukes, and release one of their bioengineered viruses from its quarantine. Got it!"

It usually makes it easier to centralize authentication. But more importantly (from the company's perspective), it gives the game producer a chance to upsell other products and micro-transaction content.

And they cast a French-American as a Scott. And an American as a Russian.

They were all over the place with that cast. But yes, Sean Cover as a Spaniard has to be the pick if the bunch.

Still a great movie though. Let's just not even talk about the sequel movies!

So, if not murdering children is pro-Palestinian, then I guess I'm pro-Palestinian.

And logically, that means being pro-Israeli (or at least pro-Israeli government, because I know there are lots of Israelis who are not happy about what their government is doing) is also pro-child-murder. Their logic, not mine!

Thank you.

Paywalled.

That gives me pretty strong Little Bobby Tables vibes.

The biggest threat to NATO is a Trump-led America? Yeah, makes sense.

Trump: "We should seize Greenland"

Also Trump: "Denmark, why are you focusing your military assets on defending Greenland if Russia is such a threat? See, this is why NATO is useless!"

So we're gatekeeping science fiction now? Nah, I'm good. Doesn't seem like a worthwhile use of energy.

Probably lots of untapped natural resources under so that ice.

Well maybe the Chinese should stop harassing Filipino ships then.

I'm a big fan of Honda cars. Not much of a Nissan fan (I know lots of people swear by them, but I had a bad experience with a Nissan lemon years ago). And I've heard Mitsubishi cars are a complete joke from a reliability perspective. So this news does not fill me with hope. If they can drag the build quality up to Honda's standards then fine. But that's not usually how these things pan out.
