It was fun doing the research. No word from the museum or any grant opportunities yet 😇
Edit: I’ve just heard back from the museum. I’ve seen the article. It might be the tip of the iceberg.

Charging him with a crime sounds like a good start … though I doubt that will happen anytime soon.


So … the US Congress can just summon a citizen from a different country … and the citizen is compelled to … do what exactly?
You don’t think that 3,028 people holding 99% of global wealth is extreme?
That’s an interesting observation.
Given the 3,028 billionaires among the 8 billion people on Earth, that’s the definition of extreme.
Those 3,028 people, or 0.000036% of the global population, hold more than 99% of all wealth.


ProTip: push your knee(s) against the sink for extra support. Initially you’ll feel a little weird, but you won’t care after your back stops hurting. You can also use this when brushing your teeth and washing your hands.

Given the massive layoffs happening under the Assumed Intelligence banner, the answer has always been: “cheaper labour”
Apparently people who actually know how to do their ICT job are too expensive, right until the shit hits the fan, at which point it’s “drop everything and help me, now!”
Organisations are no longer run by Founders, instead they’re run by accountants and lawyers who only care about shareholder value, not the societal or environmental impact.
When the bubble finally explodes we’re going to be looking at an altered economic and technology landscape, if we don’t self ignite before that.


In other news, Aussie Influencer discovers that the UK has an even stricter social media ban…


I’ve been washing clothes for many decades and although I was also taught to turn some clothes inside out, I’ve never noticed any difference if I didn’t and these days I’ll often wash with them oriented normally, mainly because that’s how I prefer to hang them in the cupboard or fold them into drawers and turning them when wet or after taking them off the line or out of the drier makes the whole process even more tedious than it already is.


Which counties voted what and what was their voting record over the last 33 years on the issue condemning the USA blockade of Cuba?


Depends on what your blender is capable of.

If it’s never happened to you, how would you know that it’s happening at all?
Skin cancer is like an iceberg, what’s under the skin is what will kill you. Go and see your doctor.


… and your point is?
The shoes I’ve seen look like an orthopaedic horror story.
You raise an important question, one that I don’t have a good answer for, despite having been part of the amateur radio community for 15 years.
Here’s how I’d approach this.
In the case of natural disasters, there’s often frequencies set aside for emergency traffic, which presumably is the way to get messages into a disaster zone.
If you’re describing that, then I suspect that the amateur radio emergency organisation in your country is the place to start, which raises the questions, which one and how?
If you’re describing something less than a natural disaster, talking to your local amateur radio club might be a better way to go, with the same questions.
If I had HF access right now, I’d get on air and make noise for you, but I don’t.
Finally, what message are you trying to get where?
That seems odd to ask on a public forum, but anything we do on HF is going to be public, more so than here on Lemmy.
