It’s gonna take them a long time to make everyone as dumb as they are.

Encryption wasn’t ever legal for most hams. But, then, who can copy 30wpm Morse these days?

Go full zombie (with the help of Fox ‘News’).

Then put all of their assets into Trump coins.

OTOH (I was just reading the other day), cats can’t even see red (looks grey to them) … only green and blue. Looks as though higher-freq visible light worked just fine for Feliformia. The organs/antennae needed to send and/or receive RF would be highly ungainly for speedy smaller predatory mammals.

Who knows - maybe some of the dinosaurs -did- use RF?! High EMF from solar CME’s might have burned out their receptors.

Good luck with that. Have u ever seen how they had to bury Reagan?

“Immortality For All Just Weeks Away”

1. Your phone is the least private device you own. Every app you add makes it worse.
2. Don’t use that bank plastic any more than you have to. Cash has built-in privacy. And -never- let it out of your hands.
3. Unless it’s legally required, -never- write or ‘give’ ‘your’ SS number.
4. None of these numbers we just have to remember are ‘ours’. Do cows own ‘their’ ear-tags? They just oil the machinery.
5. Before you get rid of that hard drive, open it up and rip out the internal wiring. Then drive a couple of nails through the platters.

Tried kdenlive yet?

RF is pretty low on the EM totem pole when it comes to energy. There’s plenty of IR to use, which is just above RF… and it’s available 24/7.

Yeah, I’m not paying a whole lot of credence to the cosmology department these days, they’re too busy using Elmer’s Glue to keep their whole story from falling apart.

I’m not so sure about the whole ‘photon’ thing anymore either … an individual, no-mass, single-point thing that can survive travelling through that universe out there for -billions of years- ? The math works, but does the model, really?

Right on about the life thing too.

A more thoughtful way to do it would be if the user were able to delete any contributions they’d made to the discussion (while the title and links persist). This should be the default. NO contribution would ever be removed except by the creator (or by the mods, if warranted according to ze rools.)

No wonder. As you can see, there’s a lot less use of that ‘O-word’ over here.
