@transicorn@mastodon.social I rarely travel far enough that I have to worry about charging on the go, but I do like to be able to charge things around the house without being tied to a wall socket. Thanks again!
I am a husband, electrical engineer, IT worker, and ham radio operator just trying to live a quiet life on my own terms. Former Coloradan, now living in #NewMexico since April 2025.
I post mostly about #HamRadio #AmateurRadio and related topics, but any random thing that enters my mind may end up here. I do very occasionally post #USpol but I do not CW them. I do use the hashtag though, so you can filter those out if you don't want to see them.
Don't let the recent join date fool you. I've been around here for a while, but I've jumped instances a few times.

On request.

@transicorn@mastodon.social That looks like exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!
Looking for a new power bank. I rather prefer one without an integrated charging cable. Any suggestions?
EDIT: Power bank found!
Hot take:
Discord is not a documentation platform. It is a chat platform. If your project requires connecting to a discord to obtain necessary information, then your project is undocumented.
@HopelessDemigod@mstdn.social I liked the zip disk form factor. They were physically the perfect size with just the right amount of chunkiness. The 3.5 inch floppies, even though they were in a hard shell, still seemed a bit too insubstantial at times.
Which of the following have you owned or used?
#Pepsi drinkers, what's your favorite way to drink it?

The neighbors across the street are in their back yard playing checkers and drinking with some music absolutely blasting.
@lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org The character limit thing always bothered me. Even though most of my posts are rather short, I still like to have the ability to post something longer if I need to. The server I'm currently on is set to 100,000.
And to see someone clutter my timeline with a dozen replies to themselves to post something longer than their server's character limit always annoys me. I've unfollowed good people because of that.
I could not be prouder of Indivisible Santa Fe. Front page coverage of our ICE OUT OF HOME DEPOT action, amidst news about how ICE is “quietly” disappearing people from #SantaFe #NewMexico.
Huh. Did you know that Portland, Detroit, Ypsilani, Seattle & Long Beach (WA) have free payphones? They're run by an indie organisation called Futel. You can visit the phone booth, make a call and that will connect you with an operator who will help you connect further:
"We do not judge the motivations of our users, or who they choose to call; if they don’t have someone to call, we can provide a presence on the other end."
Radio operators or engineers, have you ever received an RF burn?
It’s a five minute walk from my house to the pub.
It’s a 35 minute walk from the pub to my house.
The difference is staggering.
What is the largest USB thumb drive you own? I'm going to assume everyone owns a 16 GB or larger drive.
just putting a quick feeler out...are you a product person who's interested in helping out with some open source stuff? Specifically, foss designed to help artists/creatives/etc? I'm not doing a full call for folks rn but I'm wondering if I've got moots or other folks this might reach who are like 👀
Boosts Welcome™️
@HopelessDemigod@mstdn.social I don't think I ever have either.
