Thankfully I can delete messages but they remain forever. I accidentally hit send when I wasn't close to being finished with a certain group of people. No reason to hide it anymore. Neo Nazis are a cancer and only glorify the USA and Red Army for getting rid of the failures they idolize.
I'd rather not hear about how depressing society has become. People can't stand being called the wrong imaginary gender and it's criticized by society but we are still fighting wars. Who is the victim and who is just rich enough to complain?
It reminds me of how I was stuck in a feminism course and I got accused of toxic masculinity and white privilege.
I had to sit in the class the next day for the same shit against me. I put a piece of plastic in my mouth and sat through it.
I emailed the Professor and revealed that I had just found a place to live after a long stretch of homelessness and I had even found a job. The harassment didn't stop so I had to drop the course and it ended up being part of the reason I'm not going to finish my degrees in Mathematics and Comp Sci.
Yeah I know it's seemingly a terrible excuse for not caring about alleged issues in society. I will say that police have never degraded me to the same level as people who play the victim.
The Ruskies saw how effective anti radiation missiles could be when used by pilots flying directly into death and getting the systems fully active. When Rus/Viet were getting ready to get easy kills, the anti radiation missiles were sent out by both. The missiles targeted radiation which the Rus knew how to hide until ready to fire. As it turns out, Russians didn't expect a suicide mission nor the results. It would usually result in the destruction of the SAM site.
My point is that Russians probably have anti radiation missiles but they have more often experienced how effective they were against themselves. Their songs about shooting down American pilots don't mention Wild Weasels.
These anti radiation missiles like the AGM-78 ARM would go after radiation sources at Mach 1.8. It was a converted SAM but just used the power for more speed.
They would ride the waves of radiation directly to the source. In modern versions they can target radios but these are both going to have characteristic signals and will likely try to transmit as little as possible.
A lot to say so little.
@PawelK @h4890 @useless_idiot I never got any contracts like that. It would be exciting to be near action and be of use.
@thor I wonder what people have extensive training and operate more expensive aircraft without easy mode. It would be funny if they got pilots from active duty, gave them basic instructions on how it's very difficult to die in this plane and made them fly.
The soldiers get stuck flying a very boring aircraft, the companies are making money, the strike can continue and no one is getting paid. Everyone wins.
@Crankenstein @disclosetv @IAMAL_PHARIUS @Koropokkur @Some_German_Guy I don't say this often but that was in good taste and properly delivered.
@IAMAL_PHARIUS @Crankenstein @disclosetv @Koropokkur @Some_German_Guy Yes I knew and I wanted to visit it. The Guide Stones were erected in Georgia for a reason. No other state has anything like this. It is actually nothing but a bunch of rock stating something in several languages. It's mostly agreeable to people who read it except for the part about 500 million people. Conspiracy nuts like to point fingers. Global elites tried to kill the group off a few times before.
It's allegedly a group that was originally The Knights Templar. They defended the West from being taken over by Muslims. They were feared and not afraid to die for their beliefs. Eventually the royalty who they protected saw them as a threat to their power. One incident was in France and an army was mobilized to kill all the Templars in a single night.
Some escaped but most did not. They became highly secretive and grew. They eventually reached the shores of the USA and decided to fight for something worthwhile. There's a reason why many of the Founding Fathers were Freemasons. The Order of The Rose and Cross might have a different origin but they are related to the Freemasons. They were safe in their new homeland where they wouldn't be killed for being associated with an order of knights that did what they were told.
So one of the original 13 colonies has something that is unique to it while the others only have Masonic symbols.
Rip what I typed to shreds but it implies something about Freemasons and Rosicrucians finding the USA to be the only country worthy of fighting for. Those Guide Stones would have made more sense if erected when the words were written. So before all the continents were mapped, agriculture was primitive, diseases ran rampant, there was no real science of how many people could be supported by an area of land and many more unknowns.
Is 500 Million people an unreasonable number with all of the above considered? I'd say not.
If anyone says anything about Jews, the Knights slaughtered them in Jerusalem along with Muslims. They weren't the same faith.
A secret society, a society of secrets and a wall of text can't put a dent in it.
@disclosetv I had to watch it several times. It looked like there was a flash of light from the light pole. No that's just a pressure wave knocking the camera temporarily out of focus. That looks like a lower pressure wave and one with perhaps lower to medium velocity. It doesn't take rocket appliances to determine that these guys weren't capable of rocket surgery.
@thendrix The history of The Guide Stones and the group who allegedly erected them is very interesting. Why the state of Georgia? It is allegedly a very flattering story and part of the reason why Georgia is different.
It's a story that has to be learned but not taught. Something about an oath of secrecy and people who would die before they admit that they are just stones. Stones that probably reference something that was lost to time.
That feeling when you try to join a secret society and it's actually just a society of secrets. No one actually knows the answers to the secrets.
What a long strange trip it has been.
@disclosetv Well the suspects are likely white radicals, Crystal Methodists and involved with numerous hate groups. The Guide Stones were erected for a reason.
They only managed to deface it with explosives which is likely being used liberally. Was it black powder or tannerite? They will probably be found in a couple of weeks.
That feeling when one defaces a monument that was erected by those who protected one's religion through the centuries in the West. I wonder if they will ever learn that fact.
@PawelK @h4890 @useless_idiot Not immunity but even a somewhat modern anti rad missile could have trouble getting a good fix on the antennas because it is so directional. Radio emissions are minimized. It might have less of a signature than a Bluetooth device.
The best thing is that it's inexpensive to make many of these point to point connections. The Lora is only to help calibrate, a laser and a camera could be used for manual calibration. Servo motors would allow for automated calibration. I've experimented with different antenna designs that I constructed and perhaps I should get back into it.
@thendrix The Houseboat of Representatives.
@igelsQTs I didn't expect this. That's at least a 357 magnum based on the cylinder size and barrel length. I can't help but see that it's poorly secured with steel cable. The holes in the wall aren't on target and that's not a proper backstop.
@Moon Variety is the spice of life.
@inference I don't know how old you are but it's quite common to feel like that. Try to meet people who have different interests. I don't know if you participate in locksport but I would recommend it if you've never picked locks. I find it relaxing to just mindlessly pick locks. There are so many communities you could become part of. You also talk to a guy who has an FSF endorsed distro installed.
We both don't like Manjaro and that's enough.
@PawelK @h4890 @useless_idiot Lora and parabolic reflectors with the 2.4Ghz WiFi in the feed horn. The Lora coms can be used to align antennas for the WiFi. The distance on that setup is going to be just under 20km I think. It's limited by the transit time but the gain from the two reflectors uses off the shelf hardware without increasing TX power.
The above will make reconfigurable connections with End to End connections. To interrupt that very small beam would be rather difficult because it's designed to filter out interference. Those used satellite dishes are good for it. You can use beams or metal mesh as the reflector to make it even more resistant to interference. The biggest threat is the wind.
About the 3G, I didn't know it still was in use. Any number of used flagship phones with established TWRP and LineageOS ports can be bought for very little money because of the older network. The older flagships are going to be easy to repair too.
@PawelK @h4890 @useless_idiot Oh a bug out shack. Solar panels are full of problems but as long as they are physically protected and can generate more power than is needed in the winter, they should work.
Batteries are going to be a pain in some way or another. I remember reading about the Nickel Iron battery in an Electrochemistry textbook and that they are used in subways with some of them lasting 30 or 40 years of active use.
The tradeoffs are price, energy density and availability. All that can be overlooked if one is serious and needs a battery to last.
About the internet terminals, there are inexpensive and good quality travel routers made in China that can run OpenWRT. The higher end travel routers can run Ubuntu.
I've used a travel router for around 9 years and it's the same one. Connecting to onions in a University lab with the ability to change things up. They are also small so it could be taken apart and it wouldn't be recognized as a router. So many things that it could do.
@inference @thor I like to test devices outside but there's not a way to blend in doing it. God forbid someone sees the wiring again and I have to deal with who they call. I've had to explain to police what I have and they usually just stop me after a few details and looking at it. They tell me to put it away and go elsewhere.
@inference @thor I feel similar but I have a love of extreme sports. I feel that it helps keep me grounded. I don't like regular sports and it's difficult to make friends. I have many interests because there's always something in the computer world that's depressing and sometimes soul crushing.
@inference @thor That feeling when you see a malfunctioning sign and can tell it's Uboot running on a RasPi just from a glance. I love embedded systems. I will do teardowns on equipment that I've bought before even testing it.
I like other things but computer hardware is always enjoyable to inspect. I've offered advice in the past and I wouldn't mind doing it again.
Building custom PCBs seems rather pointless for most things. I would consider it to interface with something I have no other way of connecting to. There's also the case of a board that does things I don't like.
@thor It's completely normal and I just deleted 8 paragraphs to make it easier to understand.
