yeah, “the west” is going to invade 🙄

A common thing I see is people running these part-15 (in the US) devices with upgraded antenna systems, which isn’t permitted. Either run it under amateur rules or under part 15.

Have you tried a 1/4 wave vertical with 4 radials sloping towards the ground? (all wire)? or even a vertical dipole fed halfway up? J-poles show significant coupling to their feedline and mounting arrangements and, as you discovered, are taller than they need to be for their gain.

the S&P has averaged 10-12% return per year for over 60 years. So that, in itself, is not an indication of impending doom.

Attended the Dalton, Georgia hamfest today! Anyone else? Snag any great deals?

I came home with a well-used Astron RS-35A, which I realize now is emitting a strong cigarette tar odor :(

Overall, lots of vendors. Some pretty good deals and giveaways, and only a few “random cable drawer junk” / “army clothing” type sellers.

Would recommend.

Next up: Atlanta Hamfest on June 1 at Jim Miller park in Marietta.

yes, it looks at a fine-grained clock, usually a cycle counter provided by the CPU for this purpose, to aggregate total on-cpu time for each process.

I think a lot of modern kernels are “tickless” - they don’t use a timeslice timer, and only context switch on IO interrupt, process yield, or when timeouts are specifically requested (including capping cpu-bound processes). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickless_kernel

I think they limit your total ammo inventory in some Nordic country. You have to bring back casings to buy more ammo - solves two problems.

Probably dedicated vector/tensor coprocessors these days - which don’t have to work with your monitor layout or desktop setup!

Surely you mean 0.0999999931082% ?

Now I think my client (Memmy) is wonky too, because it can’t follow any of these links! Will try the web UI.

Ah, I read the requestor as wanting to disallow body text.

 

It seems like any platform that features link aggregation is soon overrun by bots and self-promoters trying to drive traffic, and pages and pages of link posts versus pages and pages of people talking.

Are there any lemmy instances or other defederated networks that focus on Q&A, niche communities, and people conversing, instead?
