@w8emv I thought about the bus pickup in Toledo this year. It sounds like a terrific way to get to the hamvention.

@oe1omk And killing people.

Much of the tacti-cool allure is that someday, you’ll get to kill people.

@M0CUV Simultaneously it can be a graceful solution to an awful problem (Python, Node.js, Ruby dependency hell) and a crutch so big it could be used by the Statue of Liberty.

Containers for microservice CI/CD pipelines and deployment? Sure. CLI apps? Get outta here with that!

@oe1omk What makes you think it wouldn’t work? This seems analogous to an ESB/EMB.

I don’t think it will get used without IAM control. If I can’t be sure the message isn’t from the call sign it says it is from, I am disinterested in accepting it. Certain origins are easy, some it may be impossible.

It is a cool concept, opens the door to a number of interesting possibilities.

@jeffpc I couldn’t pull you out, we must have been too close for the propagation.

@jeffpc What callsign should I be chasing?

@N4JAW Photographic proof that amateur radio operators can indeed operate and log while on a log.

@k8vsy I am just not a fan of ZFS. Used it plenty on FreeBSD servers and while the data durability was nice, it taught me to keep it to that very specific use case.

On Linux, XFS remains my choice.

@KC8JC No shame in using containers. They pave over the growing chaos in the Linux userspace.

@K5NER Money on how many people respond all Lester Burnham?

“I spend my days masking my contempt for the aholes in charge while retiring to the men’s room to .:: and think of a life that does not so closely resemble hell”.

I’d do it.

@M0KHR It isn’t perfect, but damned close above 50MHz.

It remains my favorite radio.

@KC8JC So is it one day ground shipping proximity.

@mw1cgg I never expected to read that ever, let alone on an amateur radio Mastodon feed.

I can’t stop laughing.

@KC8JC You do it by using it. CW is like every other language.

@mw1cgg I have that book.

@K4HCK Who though the heat color palette was suitable for snowfall totals?

@mw1cgg My favorite prank is to order up Aqua Barbie Girl on the internet connected juke box.

I don’t think a real pub would have such a thing, but if they do…

@mw1cgg That’s what angiograms are for, to help determine how many burgers are in the horizon.

@w8emv Why not use a time series database with the report being metatags?

Someone on #80m #ft8 has a serious problem where they are putting out sidebands nearly 30 Khz each side of 3574.

Have not been able to get a decode or determine who it is. But they’re definitely QRMing other stations.
