For anyone who would like to send flowers/plant a tree/donate to help cats in honor of #Belghast, his obituary can be found here: https://www.honoringmemoriesnowata.com/obituaries/mark-temple Pinging @Gazimoff#belghastas he has more reach than I. Love to everyone.

Hey everyone, @Gazimoff and others. I’m not sure who knows, figured I’d just broad cast cause a lot of us knew him. Regrettably I must inform all that @belghast passed away yesterday on July 2nd, due to I believe complications with chemotherapy. His last sentiment to most was of love and I […]

The best thing I've heard today: when I renew my passport, I don't have to have his fucking image on it.

[us/world pol] We've been through this before. If you are attacking each others military installations THEN YOU HAVE NO TRUCE, NO CEASE-FIRE. Fucking hell press, call it for what it fucking is.

Back at it again… #orchestra #basso #music

So I have a server of my own that I would like to put a blog on. Does anyone know of, or recommend, any free blogging software I can load onto my Apache server? Or where to start looking? #blogging #selfhosting

The Scotts in Boston give me hope for humanity again ;_; #scotland #boston #love

What are others' thoughts on QRZ.com? I like the concept of it, but will occasionally come up against something that's just kind of like... "Really?" Latest was I wasn't aware I couldn't export my log-book with out a subscription. And this feels really.. scummy. But I wanted to know what other […]

I recognize that as I approach my mid-forties I am becoming more and more grumpy, jaded, and out-spoken. I have not yet determined if this is a good or bad thing, honestly.

I will be honest. Maybe I am an old guard type person, or a dying breed. But if I look up your programming project, or DIY builds, and you mention anything regarding AI-code, or "Vibe-coding", I am immediately disregarding anything you say regardless of how interesting your project is.

Jeez Nintendo came out fucking SWINGING in their direct.

[World Pol] If you exchange missiles, that doesn’t strain a ceasefire. There is no ceasefire at that point.

Is it normal for me that when I get Follows on Mastodon, if I look at the user and there’s no posts I am immediately suspicious and do not engage?

Can you guess the instrument? And what is used for? #music

The Chromebook has arrived. Now for the de-Googlization..... #amateurradio #linux

In an effort to "be the change I'd like to see," I figure that as I learn amateur radio things, I should share that wealth of knowledge to others who are starting out. Whether to be a blog or what not. But I figured I'd do this by answering questions others have and going down the rabbit hole on […]

So the second build over this weekend was this. I wanted a way to attach a whip to my upstairs porch, but in a temporary situation, since I cannot always have an antenna out. Further complicating things, I cannot 100% just trust the wood of my porch to allow a metal tooth clamp, and I need the […]

Just wanted to share. In an effort to get on the waves more I wanted to make a more permanent set-up in my office for my radios. So, my project today was building a new shelf that would sit on my work desk to raise up my laptop and radio power supply so I have […] [Original post on gamepad.club]

When @belghast is happy, that makes me happy.

I have tasted the sweet fruit of Huffing. And now I must have more… #eveonline

I’m wanting to get a small Laptop soon for radio purposes. Whatever I get will be using Linux, regardless of what it comes with. But I feel like laptop batteries are always just the worse. Never last very long, don’t hold a charge after a few months. What are some tips to get the most out of […]

I've seen a lot of articles posting about how new HAMs are lackadaisical about spurious emissions, and how it's bad, and how we all need to do better, and like... not one ever tries to HELP by explaining HOW to be better. It's like, I want to be better, but if an Elmer isn't willing to reach out […]

Tried to go gas huffing for the first time, and immediately got annihilated in J-space, while trying to scan for gas sights. Was in the middle of no where too. Hope that person is happy with my basic ass components and no gas... #eveonline

Concerts tonight and tomorrow afternoon. The last of the Orchestra concerts for this "season" (ends in May, starts in August). I did half of the 6 concerts, and I've enjoyed all of them, despite what my body has done. Though I do wish I had some extra time this weekend to work on some Radio […]

I am unironically listening to old Weather Channel Jazz. What is wrong with me....

A Gentle Rain Solo-play, score of 12. Wife and I watched Remarkably Beautiful Creatures last night. It was good. #agentlerain #boardgames

Potentially Hot Take: I'm just not a fan of Chappell Roan.

While all music from Mario games are very iconic, I still think that Super Mario Galaxy has some of the best orchestrated music out of the entire series. #music #supermariogalaxy #videogamesoundtracks

[us pol] They can rebrand all they want. I have no less issue saying FUCK NICE than I do FUCK ICE.

This music speaks the wicked tounge… #music #classicalmusic #musicnotation

Just because it’s a box cake doesn’t mean you can’t jazz it up a bit… #baking #mothersday

A Gentle Rain Solo-play, score of 12. It's been a long week, that's for sure. S'been two years since Mom passed away. Feels like yesterday still. #agentlerain #boardgames

I'm the kind of person that really prefers the 2nd movement in most pieces of work. #music #classicalmusic #scheherazade #tchaikovsky

I'm being dumb and para-social, and there are no sides, but I'm still Team Aliona.

A haunting song. It reminds me of the past, of long ago. Another time, another persona. Are they the real me? Am I the real you? https://youtu.be/u8nuT1rDB7o?si=3zHH8w3miw3sN80R #davidbowie #thediscoking #personas

[Health, CHUNDDAH] To borrow the parlance of Australia, I fukin’ chundered outta no where last night and it’s right fucked me up. I’m bed ridden for a bit.

I have beaten Control again for the 7th time. The game never gets boring or old for me. #control #federalbureauofcontrol

Two very different and equally important things delivered today: #cooking #tarot

A Gentle Rain Solo-play, score of 7. Another 7 today. The randomization of the tiles lately have been horrendous! I feel like I'm kind of not able to think about this game as well as I use to. But maybe that's just all in my head. In my head. Zombie. Zombie. Zombie. E. E. #agentlerain #boardgames

Ugh I'm dreaming about all these things I want for my kitchen for cooking and I don't _need_ any of them. But.. would I cook more if I had them.... #cooking

A Gentle Rain Solo-play, score of 7. This started off as a terrible run. Then, it looked like we might make it, but in the end we could not. But such is life. #agentlerain #boardgames

EVE Online is a simple life sometimes.It's very strange honestly. It's as stressful as you want it to be. It's true you aren't ever _really_ safe, but like... it's also possible to just chill out. Look at the stars. #eveonline

Good Morning, Folks! As part of my recovery, I have been consuming a lot more passive media than normal, and I talk a bit about #fallout Season 2, #monarch Season 2 so far, and #maulshadowlord as well as #coldstorage, a pretty great fungal zombie film […]

Sitting in a Pioneer, mining out my Veldspar. About 30 m to fill my hold. Trying to do Momma @stargrace proud! #eveonline

Bands are terrible today. Only got three QSOs but all of them were out of country so I guess that’s good? #hamradio #amateurradio

@stargrace So, I'm basically starting fresh again in EVE; do you have any resources/suggestions for starting out? I think right now, my goals are mostly mining/exploration. Maybe hauling later. I don't have a whole lot of interest in active battling at the moment...

A Gentle Rain Solo-play, score of 11. I have been playing more video games as of late, but after having finished Sniper Elite: Resistance and in a good state with Pokemon Pokopia, it's time to get back to the table with board games. #agentlerain #boardgames

Hey @stargrace, about how large is EVE Online these days? Determining if I have the space to reinstall it or not...

It’s incredible how listening to an Album you haven’t heard in decades just brings everything back… #music #systemofadown #stealthisalbum
