Or we could actually make some stuff in the US/EU for a change. I know it takes time but it’s probably for the best in the long run

lol

I wish the FCC would lighten up the amateur radio rules tho. Cool stuff like Meshtastic is happening outside of licenced bands and is taking off

You say that like it hasn’t been in decline since 2000 or so lol

If everything works out okay yay.

If everything goes to shit republicans have nobody to blame because they have a majority everywhere and we can vote them out.

And the democrats got a wakeup call they can learn from (but they played the same 2016 tactics and got the same 2016 prize so we’ll see if anything sticks next time)

The flag in OPs post represents Cascadia, the mountain regions of the Pacific NorthWest of the US and West coast of Canada.

This is general advice regardless of party.

Look at your your town/city govt and keep an eye on meetings (a lot are streamed now post Covid). Know the people in office and what they are for/against. Focus on actions more than words. Vote for people you believe in and keep in contact with them. They can be surprisingly approachable.

Act similarly at the state level. Know and pay attention to the justices, senators and representatives. Reach out on issues you find important.

Being informed on govt and politicians doesn’t happen through ads and comment sections, and it doesn’t stop when elections are over. Do what you can where you can for what you believe in.

And maybe just maybe it will result in a solid Presidential candidate

Nice try FBI

Ships need gas inside to keep the dihydrogen monoxide at safe levels

Temp has an effect on all batteries. Wouldn’t hurt. And keeping it dry will keep metal parts from rusting as quickly

I like X.com only because I like X-Com

Yeah I did! I’m hoping my library get the book. Hell I might buy it, read it and donate it after

If a nuclear missile is launched at the United States the President has just 6 minutes to come to terms with that and decide to launch a counter attack or not.

If that counter attack is headed to North Korea, any land based missiles will head over the arctic circle, over Russian airspace where similar shoot/no shoot decisions will have to be made in a similar timeframe.

Not really a meme but cool

get your common sense and logic out of here lol

I imagine that’s only if you market it as drugs.

“Hey you got the good drugs?” “Yeah here”

But what if you played the long con, started…say a salt distribution ring. Have a run down house full of it, sell it in baggies, make it look as suspicious as possible only for them to do stakeouts, get informants in there, just to find you are not doing anything illegal at all, it just has all the signs without the actual law breaking. If you call it salt they’ll probably think it’s a code name for a drug

“Hey you got the good salt?” “Yeah here”

goes back to the police lab

“wtf? It’s just salt?”

Then they would just think the informant got compromised and have to raid the house lol

How bad did he mess up to be issued a blaster like that?

Follower? Fan? Enjoyer? lol

I don’t have a 3D printer but if I did I would try to keep it in a basement or garage, or at least keep a window open
