@Infoseepage appreciated! Damn. Time for me to shop for a new provider, then 😞

Incredible stuff. Training film for an ancient surface-to-air search radar team.

Featuring:
- a crew member whose sole job it is to read the azimuth off of a scale that's physically on the base of the antenna
- reading the contacts off of an oscilloscope
- telephoning the contacts to a central room be plotted on a physical chart.

@Infoseepage okay. Link?

@Infoseepage that's very concerning. I'm a Proton customer, and maybe I ought not to be.

Do you have a link to an example?

@skinnylatte yeah! I use it to automatically put my photos on my NAS.

A bit bummed that the package for the NAS isn't getting any further updates, and that they just announced they aren't doing Android support any more, though 😞

@danderson I have to say, I bounced off Elite Dangerous when I tried it. If I got to do this kind of thing, I think I'd probably give it another go. Though it sounds like you'd need to already have played for quite a while first to have the resources and know-how. If there was on-the-job training I think I'd sign right up. It sounds like fun!

I must not reply. Replying is the mind-killer. Replying is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

I will face the bad take. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the take has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Wait. Is Arkansas the trigonometric opposite of Ansas?
