What you see on these screens here are a fantasy. a computer enhanced hallucination.

Hold the door hold the door. Hold the goddamn door.

Launch detection!

A nice game of nourts and crosses?

I told you not to start playing games with that thing.

Mr Mckitick after very careful consideration sir I've come to the conclusion that your new defence system sucks.

Changes locked out. We're going to war anyway.

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.

@BethanyBlack I'm pleased to see you back. Sorry to hear the house saga continues.

I don't /need/ a new radio, but I got one anyway. My excuse is I got a pay rise and this looks like an interesting radio.

It's an XHDATA D328. AM / FM / SW reception, DSP. Also includes an MP3 player. Built in rechargeable battery. Charged via USB-C. Not yet checked if there's data on the USB port.

Initial results are favourable on FM and AM. Not had a chance to get somewhere RFI quiet enough to make SW listening worth it.

@viq @Foxboron @ryanc and a terminal beep after each character?

#SilentSunday wild carrot.

You know someone is setting up for some serious physics when the 50mm thick lead wall comes out to play.

@kaia not as secret as it was, but apparently the Russians knew of it as it was being built.

@kaia that's the one I donated.

@kaia I donated one to the secret nuclear bunker group. Look up gb0snb there are a few websdr there now.

@goatsarah I'm planning to hold off until September, in the hope a newer vaccine is available. I want a booster before all the students return and before I get on a plane again.

It looks like I'm not going to be eligible for a free covid booster, so how do I go about getting a paid for one in the UK? Anyone done it recently?

@goatsarah you can make pretty oxide colours on it, but a bit wasted down inside an implant.
We do have a student looking at surface effects on implants for ossiointergration but I think they are more concerned with textures than colours.
