@jimsalter@fsf They're not. They've made it perfectly clear their loyalty is to RMS and not to the mission. I've moved on to the @conservancy and will likewise be changing my bequests the next time my will is updated.
@kilroy_was_here ah, got it. Yeah, those are dangerous situations and it's best to avoid them. In my truck, the 7100 remote head sits on a movable goose neck but is basically right next to the air conditioning controls and I don't touch the VFO. I just leave it on two repeaters and the touchscreen switches between them at the corners so I don't need to look. The mic sits in a cup holder. So everything is within a no-look reach.
@kilroy_was_here what were these close calls you mention? I keep a mobile hooked up in the truck in part so I have it on hand for going up into the mountains. Easy to lose cellular up there.
@kilroy_was_here The 7100 is an amazing rig. I loved it so much, in fact, that, I bought one for my lab and one for my truck, and it's versatile enough to be perfect in both situations.
@hackaday Homeboy here probably couldn't imagine how his little revolution changed the lives of me and countless others. For years, the happiest day of the month was the one where I got my 3*2*1 Contact magazine and messed with the BASIC listing in it. So many lives touched by an idea whose time had come.
@millihertz I cannot imagine a language better suited to cut my teeth on. Even its more obvious limitations seems almost purpose built to become object lessons in why other languages are as they are. I weep that children are not still taught on it.
@djsundog Hey remember that time when we got like 4-5 years of relative peace, apparent prosperity, and optimism about the future...and then it turned out it was all a bunch of fucking lies?
I have reached that point of being mentally and physically tired and having burned weeks worth of spoons taking care of other people...that watching "Strange Brew" feels like an act of self-care.
@amael@rtn@nixCraft which is funny because I grind by hand and use a La Pavoni lever action espresso machine but my distro (Regolith) is based on Ubuntu because I can't be wrestling with my computer when I have work to do.
