i happen to be prototyping (just drawing and speccing) this with high gain directional 5GHz Wi-Fi radios for my local community. I worked as an engineer in the fixed wireless space for some time, so I think it's definitely viable to setup a few point-to-point and multi-point radios around and get a small metro area network running. at this point I just need to get my hands on the hardware lol
even my myopic ass could have seen this one coming. this admin was never going to support him
i absolutely hate this, and at the same time, you're entirely on point here. it's beginning to feel a lot like sex crimes are a rite of passage to the new regime, bonus points if it's a hate crime directed at a trans person
fucking DoTerra...and Young Living...and Juvva...and LulaRoe...and MonaVie. and Xooma. and- yeah, i think Utah has a bit of a problem. what the fuck?
agree. i hate it here. I picked a bad time to start on my own, huge fumble lol
Axing CISA was such a mask-off move in my mind. of course if you want to tamper with voting and computer systems in the US, why wouldn't you?
fucking idiots. we didn't even recover from Salt/Volt Typhoon yet smh
yep, I know this feeling all too well - having a community and friends is important but even more so in cases like ours. Thank you for the comment, I hope you're doing better nowadays.
upvoted for good content :3
I'm probably gonna get clowned for feeding the troll, but - this comment comes off a lot more harsh if you've ever experienced not having access to the Internet and a smartphone or computer.
I spent the better part of 16 years of my life with no TV, MP3 player, phone, Internet, or computer - and it has negatively impacted me in immeasurable ways. I couldn't find work, because I couldn't apply for jobs but also I didn't know you could do that on the Internet - I also didn't know YouTube existed, so I missed out on learning the things I liked, and I didn't know I was being abused because I had no way of knowing that it wasn't normal until I got access to help, via the Internet.
I wasn't in the stone age - if I'd had options to do any of the above without a phone or the Internet, I'd be a different person today. Shut up, mate - not everyone can afford or has the opportunity to own a smartphone and data plan (which are rare and expensive in abusive situations like my past). Making services available in places like libraries and community centers without requiring smartphones and Internet would help so many people who have no ability to use them - those people are just as human as you.
and by the way while we're at it: if we're effectively paywalling access to basic human rights behind an IP address and cellular radio, those should be enshrined as human rights too.
this!
it's the most insane thing that I've been on the flip side of this rhetoric coming from that part of the political spectrum as well. when I told my brother I was transitioning (MtF), he freaked out and said I was going to lose muscle mass and all my strength. of course that's part of what estrogen does, and is kinda the point, but I find it silly that they admit it and simultaneously refuse to admit it.
