just to add, some Android phones can also use alternate operating system images, you can DDG (search engine duckduck go) many of them like lineageos, omnirom, most on XDA forums.... there are also degoogled specific Roms like e.foundation (/e/), and other forms to degoogle with magisk and microg for the base roms like lineageos.... There is also alternate firmware for routers, Merlin, ddwrt, openwrt.... the routers get much more technical then a desktop. the phones now are more tricky with firmware and the new(er) A/B slots for the ROM /recovery.

I am hoping there is enough like us around me... can't wait for stuff to unfold

allow me to add this: there is also loss from the transmission line, to substation step down transformer, to distribution lines, to distribution transformer then to secondary lines carrying the 120V to each location....

I too miss the mountains. Now, I am near a flat coast line

GOA is the way to go now, the NRA has been far to weak

nice. must be warmer where you are. flowers are still breaking ground here

this can't be real - I can find no other source.

I just excel at being an ass, lol. I do not do it often , I am in a psyco extreme left state.

I have an edge I use. When people start getting nasty - I reply something like "I am sorry, but I have went thru Chemical Biological Radiological warfare school in the Military - this has all the hallmarks of a bio weapon and a psyop - please do the research with 99% survival rate, why has this "virus" never been actually identified, and the Vaccine is not a Vaccine, it is a Patented mRNA synthetic shot which by law isn't a vaccine. Please check it out the media is fooling all of us". I am trying to help, seriously I am. // Now I do not go up to random people and say it, but I can see the people complaining about the masks... I am not great, but I also do not care who I offend - I attempt to use some tact.

I went for Ice cream last night at my local place for the kids. They have just opened again where we can go inside with limited people. i mentioned it was good to see everyone again instead of through the window. I am glad I mentioned that as all of the girls behind the counter smiled and agreed - then a conversation with another customer in the store started. We found out we were both Vets and sick of the BS mask rules. It was a nice refresher. People are sick of this tyranny

I believe what truly needs to be done is community as Flynn has stated. These chats are great to communicate, but we are too far flung for local communications for things such as local school boards, township meetings - to take back at the local level. Myself - I will never run for any office - it is not for me as I can never play the nice game (I would tell someone to f off in their face, lol). I believe this would get s ball rolling faster.

Good discussion with Alcatel (TCL phone) flip phones used as wifi hotspots ... using a Raspberry pi to log the wifi connections (very possible I run a Raspberry pi to do the same, just different model). This proof, when the data is brought to court is another right over target hard evidence on the election fraud. No way can anyone accept this election. . . I would call this a major BOOM personally.

Now you can spoof the mac address to the sign, lol

I like your play on words, LOL. Sad but so true

Hopefully our Frogs are laying down the prodiamine for the new weeds that pop up

the account was terminated on pootube

I hope so as the Dems (mainly) are on their own precipice of passing many laws which are repugnant of the constitution/bill of rights (look at Gov murphy in City State NJ, court packing, Bidan wanting ). Hopefully things do come out fast before civil war breaks out. As this sits, we already know we do not have a legal system (Texas Supreme court) - therefore we honestly have no law. The police can not be blindly trusted as many will side with anti American states (dis-united states?). This should be the wake up - hopefully. American Roulette

Neat - glad I asked - I never heard of thermochromic pigment. Resin - that stuff can be nasty. I had to mix it when I was still in the USN, not the best ventilation below the water line - i wound up using positive ventilation with the equipment form the repair locker and out thru the welding vents which did the trick. I am glad you keeping ventilation.

they have color changing epoxy? i remember working with resin many years ago, defilitely need air ventilation! stay safe from those fumes (i am sure you are, had to mention)

Cats do that, lol. I have observed plenty - so yes I observe as will. Either way - Real life is much better (usually anyway)

I find real life more interesting than any online. I can not see the smirk from sarcasm, or a glint in the other persons eye when they say something whitty.... we can go on - I believe everyone here knows what i am typing... Trolls online, not much else, disinformation, some good info when you sift thru the turds.

Very Welcome. i am glad Citizens Free press posted it. I wanted to share.

gravity can be warped my mass

Yes do see your point. I did and still do read the post as examples, Cloud yes online, NAS is local storage - nothing specific. I read the qdrop as specific with off line. My guess is different people different times My personnel opinion, Offline is better (preferable on a RAID). However, I realize that is not convenient for everyone.

The post only says to backup never specifying where.

Nice. I am not like most. I have a GAB, never use it, I mainly am here. I dumped fecalbook years ago, and never had a twitter. I wonder if people should keep there offline backups in a makeshift Faraday cage. Easy to do in a metal trash can and a dielectric.

thanks

Yes, But I will not drive this thread on a tangential path - silly comment was enough. On the serious note I have no idea the the character codes.

383 was a good engine... oops, wrong thread, heh

I wish I knew. But nothing like this is as small as the Headlines. I am no one that has any inside info, and I do not pretend to be. However, accidents like this do not just "happen". I have personally ben through a locks. This is far from normal
