I suppose that they’re using all the available resources to build drones for the conflict, but I’d definitely choose a Ukrainian FPV drone over a DJI or other Chinese drone if they were commercially available, both to support the Ukrainian economy and to buy within Europe

Meshtastic network is a communication system that doesn’t rely on mobile phones. Have a look at it, it’s simple, secure, cheap, and rapidly growing

I don’t know exactly, my mate bought it, but if I recall rightly, it was about the same as you saved. Mined sweet fuck all though, so a 50w tube heater may have been a better bet…

We have a battery bank for our solar that was getting too cold in the freezing weather, and we used a little mining rig (that’s designed and marketed as a heater miner, to preempt the “it’s not designed for that” comments), and while it found exactly fuck all of value, it did keep them warm enough to keep our power on

Author’s website, which, after playing a little text game, takes you to a better place to buy it from than Bezos’s fetid swamp - https://curiousvideogamemachines.com/

In fairness, harbour is a pretty long word for someone with the reading comprehension of a toddler

Before “blowing up” meant trending on Xitter

He’s only been in office for a few weeks, how the hell has he started a fungal zombie apocalypse already?!

That’s valid, but I think that there’s going to be an increasing number of people who feel unsafe enough to take that hit, from the left/lgbt/scientific/non-caucasian communities. There’s almost inevitably going to be a brain-drain because of this, so we might as well take advantage of it

The smart move here would be for the EU/UK to set up an easy method for all the clever, motivated people alienated by the orange hitter’s actions to jump ship

On fire, AND buried in snow. Nice

I started watching last time he got in with a kind of amused schadenfreude, mistakenly thinking that while he was obviously going to be a disaster for the US, he might be less terrible than Hillary for the rest of us.

When he was replaced by a grown-up, I breathed a sigh of relief - I’d not realised how mentally taxing it is to have someone so quixotic and deranged in that position, even from a continent away. This time he’s not even in office yet, and I’m already over the tension that his deranged little outbursts instil in me. Seeing his (and Elon’s) attention focus more over here is unnerving too, neither of them should be making decisions that affect anyone else, let alone in another country!

Hardly a joke considering that they have a population of 1.4m. That’s a medium-sized city…

They’re not poor people, they’re immigrants and all that entails. When I worked in the can in Calais, the fast would turn up and start fights and abuse people, and the police just watched. It’s not a great environment round there

Disappointing image, no standard scale reference

Not even a little Nazi gold tax?

Yeah, I really enjoy Mastodon, this news sucks. Got any recommendations on what I might replace it with for iOS?

It forgot “carry on with the shooting of morally bankrupt CEOs”, but I suppose you can’t blame it for not being bang up to date

I’m not sure rotting is going to be an option. You reckon any of those Korean cons are going to be happier to see him than the guys who’ve been hunting him down on the outside? I don’t, and these dudes don’t have to follow a twitch stream to know where he is. I reckon he’s going to gain a new understanding of what the comfort women went through pretty quickly. My money wouldn’t be on him surviving a 16yr stretch in all honesty

Nah, he’s been banned on almost every platform, and by the time he gets out of jail, no one will remember his name
