@hikingdude@mastodon.socialOh! #FootpathFriday
One photo from the ruin of the castle #neideck which we visited.
I like castles and ruins not just for their look but because they offer a huge amount of information and history!
Well happy weekend! And happy reading
@villavelius@mastodon.onlineIt's probably the other way around; they do things like walking the avondvierdaagse because they are happy.

@lightweight@mastodon.nzoss.nzI've noticed how people who are 'left' in their politics are happy to identify themselves that way. People on the 'right', however, seldom identify themselves that way, as it tends to reflect poorly on them - 'right' connotes selfish, bigoted, greedy, mean, cold, ignorant, religious, pragmatic rather than principled... I propose we adopt new terms for the political spectrum rather than 'left'<->'right', namely 'noble'<->'ign…

@tschfflr@fediscience.org"what are the two readings of 🙃?" - Roughly, one group sees this emoji as a whimsical, funny alternative to the "regular" smiley 🙂 , which they also read as positive ("happy, smiling"). The other group sees it as sarcastic, passive-aggressive, or uncomfortable. There are many nuances but those are the two groups. #emojis #WorldEmojiDay #linguistics

@mlawton@mstdn.socialMy daughter spotted this 4’ central rat snake on the roof. Whoever did the addition did an absolutely incompetent job on the flashing. There are some gaps on each side where I feared pests could get in as well as the elements. Sealing it has been on my to-do list.
We watched buddy here slither down the gutter and slide on in behind the flashing. RIP to whatever is living within. Going to have to give it a few days for it to egress, fat and happy, and then get that sealed properly.

Ditch Chrome. Ditch it yesterday. It’s already 50% hostile surveillance machine, but that’s soon going to be 100%.
Vivaldi is a fine near-drop-in replacement if you want maximum compatibility. It’s what I use for G-Suite stuff whenever I have to use it.
Waterfox is a Firefox fork that strips out the AI nonsense features. I’ve been happy with it.
Firefox itself has problematic leadership these days, but is still better than Chrome.
Safari on Mac (my daily driver) is a lovely browser, lean and blazing fast compared to Chrome, and great privacy features — though it’s still Big Tech if that’s a problem for you.
In short, you have choices!

@azonenberg@ioc.exchangeAfter a bunch of iterating and simulation and getting pulled away for other things, I'm finally happy with the backside-fed ARF6 connector launch on the LATENTRED switch engine board.
Simulated return loss of the simple naive version (vias in pads, no ground cutouts or optimization) was around -10 dB return loss starting at 15 GHz and rising to -8.8 at 30 and -6 at 35.
Adding a cutout to the first ground layer improved this significantly, better than -15 dB to 33.8 GHz.

@jswright61@ruby.socialI’m usually a bit hesitant to reply into a chain that’s visible to me by virtue of following 2 or more of the accounts @-named in a post.

I realize my privilege. I’m not part of a marginalized group, and I don’t have people jumping in to harass me.
